Wandersong: that game has so much character, it’s insane. The game can feel very emotional without heavy themes, idk how it did it.

3ds might be my favorite system, I really want a third party emulation machine that can capture that form factor so bad. It was just so easy to pop it open and play whatever I was playing and just close the lid. So many hours lost in the monster hunter, pokemon and picross 3d

There are a lot of indie games that suffer from this imo. Might be because they don’t have enough testers.

Those games have a tough start, but if you can get over the initial hump then you can do pretty well in later level. That is until the final boss where shit hits the fan again.

I played Bg3 on easy, no shame, but I think I missed out on secondary class. I think that’s not available on easy.

I like this answer, sometimes I just want to feel like a god in an rpg, but most of the time enemies scale with you in most games

This is such a good answer. I remember playing it on easy back in the day and the final boss still kicked my ass.

I think that’s how most people feel about their first monster hunter. I played Tri Ultimate first and I feel like games have been easier since then.

I love Lemmy, but the general consensus of “fuck big corpo no matter what” attitude is kinda tiring. This is completely reasonable for Rockstar to reject the counter offer. Not to mention, Heaven 17 is not some big band to begin with.

You’re right, achievements are excessive in some games, that’s why I don’t rely on them too much. I like the idea of short term goals though, and if those goals seem “fulfilling” then I can use them as my completion milestones.

Thank you! I also have a big board game collection, and that sounds genius and fun, I will start doing that with board games. And I can also see it being applied to some games.

This is just to keep a tally for myself. I don’t force myself to keep playing if I don’t like the game then I just stop (skul was the most recent game that I just stopped playing). Just wanted some milestone for these odd genres for fun.

Thank you! I would like to say that this is not for anyone, but myself. I just like to keep a tally for myself to make my way through my backlog, I almost never feel satisfied with just doing some match in civ for instance, so I like your idea of getting different win types.

Thank you for pointing that out, fixed it to say “Metacritic”

I have noticed that YouTube by default pushes a lot of right wing-esque stuff. My YouTube recommendations are fucked when I am not logged in, so much misinformation and clickbait all over the place. So I can see why it’s easy to fall for misinformation.

I love this. Lookin forward to future XBC games even more now.

Too much man. I was initially just playing Atari 50, but I was itching for something with more gameplay so I started Neon White and I am loving it. That game must have been QA’d to hell because every level just flows so smoothly. Then I also started a new session of Monster Hunter World with couple of my friends. Later I was just not around my PC, so I decided to check out what I have on the switch, and now I’m in chapter 4 of Xenoblade Chronicles. Bonus game: Ordia on phone.

I am very cautious of what BioWare is going to deliver, but do you guys think everyone overreacted over that trailer? I saw it and I was like, “okay cool, kinda cheesy, but it’s nice to have a confirmation at least”. Then I look at the comments and it’s just trash fire everywhere.

Someone hasn’t played Death Stranding

Sorry, I was essentially emphasizing on my initial point “am I a moron?”, lol, because I legitimately didn’t get your point at first like others do in this thread.

I get what you mean now after reading it couple more times
