Hah! What an idiot.
Hah! What an idiot.
Starfield was garbage IMO. I didn’t even pay for it and wanted my money back in less than 3 hours.
But I AM still hopeful for Elder Scrolls 6. The weakness of Starfield is exploration is barely a thing; incredibly boring procedural generation is the cause. There is little to no value getting excited exploring the world and the incredible world of Skyrim is what makes it good.
I seriously doubt Bethesda is dumb enough to try procedural generation with the next elder scrolls game, and if they are then it will be dead in the water just by association. But a game similar to Skyrim will likely still find a stronger audience, even if just for the return to form.
Oh true. My bad, was thinking in context of old shows and forgot the topic.
For my kids cartoon, would probably be Static Shock. The animation is way tougher than I remember, but it was still really fun!
I’ve been watching Hercules: The Legendary journeys from the 90s, and I watched them a ton as a kid, too. Love most episodes still even tho Kevin Sorbo is now a shitmonkey. They honestly had really positive messages, and it’s just campy enough for the costumes and ancient animation to still be fun.
Yeah there are artistic scenes in samurai Jack that wow me even all this time later. Great show.
Yeah this is all I want. I can barely afford to eat normally right now, if this got priced reasonably I’d be all over it.
Oh man, just made my own comment on black and white, and I assumed I was the only one. Black & White 2 is still the best God game out there for me and it was so much fun.
A bit of an obscurer one, but I would love another Black & White, based on Black & White 2. It’s a god game where you control a giant bipedal creature, control a city (or several) and battle against other gods through architecture and combat. You can train your creature to do things you prefer and expand your influence however you like.
It had a good/evil morality system, is completely winnable by being a pacifist, and has a really cute style of humor.
No other God game has quite scratched that itch and it’s still fun to this day almost 20 years later.
It definitely got better, but can still be buggy. You can also pretty much guarantee there will be some bigass bugs when the new DLC comes out, it’s the Owlcat way.
I’d say the actual quality doesn’t take a nosedive anymore, the game is pretty consistently fun from start to finish. The beginning definitely has more going on though.
Vermintide is a lot of fun. The total war Warhammer games are pretty good.
My personal favorite (as an RPG fan) is Rogue Trader (40k) by Owlcat Games. Game is superbly written and the combat and world is pretty fun too. If you hate CRPGs, stay away though. This game really showed me the secret sauce Warhammer 40k has going for it.
I’m excited as hell for space marine 2. We’ll see how that goes.
Anything above basic content in 14 (which is lowest common denominator content) can honestly be quite challenging, and savage and ultimate content is very very difficult content overall. It’s all about how much time and effort you’re willing to invest, the first 70 levels of content is pretty braindead so anyone can beat it.
Curious if elder scrolls online is similar because I honestly don’t know, haven’t played it in a decade.
Thank you for the link! Always had only a vague understand of NFC communication.
Yeah I’m hoping so as well, haven’t played since that patch. I got really burnt out spamming the story over and over too.
Yo, I got a PSP as a kid and this game came with it. Very dark, an absolute trip of a game.
Didn’t they just change the game with the last patch (still being updated, my God the devs are GOATed) so they you can play to 100 in any difficulty? I still imagine you get pasted in elite and ultimate if that’s your issue though.
Definitely I would check out Grim Dawn and Last Epoch.
Grim Dawn is an insanely sprawling game with tons of class combinations and builds, made by the people who made titan quest. The graphics are dated as hell but it never stopped me from loving it. I also find the lore very fun.
Then there is Last Epoch, which is coming out on the 21st. I’ve been playing it for 3 years, even done some testing for them. Personally some of the more casual friendly things that you can’t find (like the crafting actually being amazing, seasons giving content to non-season characters, etc) just are unmatched and give the game a very good flow. It will be out in 1.0 in ~ a week and I definitely think it’s worth a glance because I find it is a great middle ground between diablo’s dumbed-downness and Path of Exile’s sweatiness.
If you can, make sure you open your blinds at night, especially if you usually keep them closed. Even just a modicum of extra light can help you wake up quicker.
Tbh, the only REAL tip I have is go to bed at like, 10 PM ish. I know that sucks ass but then you wake up to the sun in your window naturally and it’s a whole different experience.
Absolutely Hi-Fi Rush. I loved many games this year, but Hi-Fi Rush was so fun, so wholesome, so loveable that the music it used carried me through some insanely hard times. It is very obviously a passion project made by incredible creators, and I legitimately cannot find a single issue with it (which I can’t say of any other game this year).
I still feel swells of emotion listening to the music from that game. Absolutely incredible.
The original Mount & Blade at an office max, I think? 5 dollar bargain bin game. I remember being blown away by the army combat in that game. The first one was so barebones but I still love that janky mess.
I agree with the guy that said Outer Wilds, even though I can’t finish it because of my thalassophobia.
Personally, the two games that had a really profound effect on me are Disco Elysium and Hi-Fi Rush.
Disco is an incredible political game that really is damn powerful. It’s definitely not for people who just want action.
Hi-Fi Rush is a rhythm action game so I wouldn’t recommend it to people who hate rhythm games or people who hate action. But it’s so fun, so charming and really uplifting.
