AstroWolfie Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 How about the meta? It ruined some games for me, cause I ran stuff that wasn't "meta" and any time I asked for tips on how to improve playing, they just said it wasn't "meta". I ignored it but I never got help, other than guides from back when those things were "meta". How about the meta?

AstroWolfie Posted Tuesday at 01:37 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 01:37 AM If it isn’t over the top it’s great. KSP’s meta with the Nerv engines is great cause it isn’t forced. You can use what you want and still succeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerbiloid Posted Tuesday at 05:23 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 05:23 AM Caravan in Fallout is a queen of the meta-gaming. In the game you collect cards to play the in-game game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superfluous J Posted Tuesday at 05:26 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 05:26 AM I love the idea that the actual game is Caravan, and Fallout is just an elaborate meta game constructed around it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They failed being hired by the actual Las Vegas casinos, and made their own Las Vegas, with blackjack caravan and... robots. That's how the Fallout: New Vegas began.
