Not playing yet, but I’m preparing for Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous. I’m not gonna make my own builds, since I have basically no idea about PF or which of the thousands of feats, spells, whatever are good. There’s not a lot of info about this out there, or it’s outdated, so I’m compiling stuff in a spreadsheet, so I have easy access to everything.
AC Shadows. Love AC (Not all of them) I like the general story.
- Easy Red 2 - current beta is in excellent shape
- Fermi Paradox - returned to check he the game was going anywhere
- Brotato - needed a time waster that you can pick up and put down in seconds (Steam Deck)
Gonna get Hole and finish Forgive me Father 2.
I’ve been spending a little more time with Forever Winter.
Its very definitely early access; not the bullshit “We’re releasing the game, but calling it early access so you can’t complain about any bugs you find” stuff you get now but actual real old school Minecraft style early access where you’re basically getting alpha builds straight from the developer.
That said, it’s in much better shape than it was when I first looked into it (maybe a year ago?). Game is really fun to play, unbelievably tense, but without being too punishing. I think they’re really starting to zero in on that Dark Souls sweet spot where dying sucks, but not in a way that actually sets you back all that much. The stealth gameplay feels good, and getting out with a haul of loot is intensely satisfying.
Plus the art design is unbelievably good.
Dread Delusion!
The game truly feels like Morrowind at times, like others have said.
I miss games with rich lore like this so much
There are a handful of games out there that have tried to do some aspects of an Elder Scrolls game without doing the other parts badly. Dread Delusion is very much an exploration game, and it excels at that.
the original half life. I decided to load games onto my deck smallest to largest. Playing ones that held my interest and kicking off others. It can only hold like 3 or 4 latest triple A type games so I figures I would just have like two on their and use the rest of the space to have a greater variety of games.
I’ve got a 3.5 TB hard drive that mostly holds video files and stuff, and there’s at least 1.5TB free at this point. When you’re playing games that predate solid state drives, that may as well be infinite space.
Death’s Door on switch. It’s a cute little soulslike where you play a crow who reaps souls. It has good gameplay and a nice style.
I really enjoyed this one! I tried Tunic after this it, but could not get into it.
I enjoyed this one a lot, but I eventually got stuck on a yeti boss, and quit.
It felt like his next move was somewhat randomized, and you needed to react in much less than a second to the type of move he was doing. While a lot of bosses develop patterns you can get used to, I couldn’t form any rules in my mind that could account for my reflexes not improving.
Yeahh always felt like that boss was a major difficulty spike, next two bosses are even harder when in comparison the past bosses were cakewalks 🫤
caves of Qud
I finally picked up Stray!
Literally just started that a few minutes ago actually. Really good first impressions. The cats are very realistic. So much so my dogs were having just as much fun as I was watching me play haha.
I never felt like buying this full price, but this just reminded me to reserve it at my library for a borrow. Thanks.
Me neither. It went on sale recently for 18 bucks and I missed it by a few hours. It went back on sale today and I grabbed it. Haha.
Meow !
Meow !
Have fun! I just finished it today. It’s a great game.
I’ve basically been marathoning Kingdom Come: Deliverance II. It’s hard to state just how much improved from the original game without writing a book, but the highlights are that combat is way better, the stealth is way better, the mission designs largely don’t ask you to do anything tedious for the sake of “immersion” without something interesting happening along the way, and they do a better job of recording everything you need to know about a quest in your journal this time around, while signaling the things that they won’t. I’m having a hard time putting the game down. It’s Witcher 3 levels of “every side quest is interesting”, and the game gives you a lot of freedom. My alchemy skill is now maxed out, and there’s basically no problem I can’t solve with potions. So far, this is the best game I’ve played this year.
0 A.D.
It’s a free opensource RTS game. It’s hard as hell though.
Finished three games:
- ATRI: My Dear Moments
- We Love Katamari Reroll+Royal Reverie
- Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition
Will be posting more details on !nintendo@lemmy.world’s next “What are you playing this weekend?” thread tomorrow, but I enjoyed and recommend all three games.
Started playing two more today:
First impressions are good but it’s too early to recommend either of these.
Currently playing through all the Zelda games with a friend in this curated order:
So far I recommend it, although I’m only 3 games in.I just finished Wind Waker and it was far worse than I remembered, and I didn’t remember it being very good in the first place. Probably a conversational opinion, but I think Wind Waker is the most lazy and forgettable Zelda game. Curious if anybody liked this one for more than just the music and artstyle.
I can’t wait to move on to the DS games which I really like, but I’m waiting for my buddy to play Wind Waker first.
Cadence of Hyrule is fun as hell. Gotta fix that on the list.
Link’s Awakening Remake is super rad, and my second favorite Zelda on Switch (after Skyward Sword).
What on Earth is this dogwater tier list?
"Post SS 2017 & 2013 is the dumbest name for a tier that doesn’t even need to exist. Put Breath of the Wild in “Neo Zelda” with TotK where it belongs, and put Link Between Worlds next the game it is direct sequel to, A Link to the Past.
Also, who’s the genius that said we don’t play Hyrule Warriors, and what is wrong with them? Of all of the spin-off games Zelda has ever had, or any Nintendo game series for that matter, Hyrule Warriors (the original or Definitive Edition) is nearly god tier. Especially on an amulator with near perfect performance. Even in comparison to some mainline games (such as the Wind Waker styled DS games) its a much more enjoyable experience simply for the controls.
With regards your comment on Wind Waker, I think the story writing was pretty good towards the end of the game. But the gameplay is padded by a lot of time sailing with little to do and the art style is very unappealing. I mean, the cel shading looks good even years later obviously, but the character proportions look ugly. BotW and TotK struck a much better balance with their cel shading because the proportions of characters are actually somewhat normal.
Wind Waker was a decently written story held back by a poor choice of art style. Eiji Aonuma admitted this. And I am glad he did. He recognized why it was unappealing, and for what has to be the first and only time ever in Nintendo’s history, listened to the audience that buy and play the game to make changes going forward. Without this admittance, it is doubtful that BotW or TotK would have had their current art style.
It’s not actually a tier list, I just used a tier maker website to put together this play order and put rough labels on them. BotW and TotK are far apart cause we didn’t want to play them back-to-back.
Also, who’s the genius that said we don’t play Hyrule Warriors, and what is wrong with them?
I humbly admit that I am the genius in question.
Doesn’t really look very fun or interesting, and it’s certainly not mainline. So to be honest, I didn’t even consider including it. Maybe I will try it at your recommendation.
