I started a community for free games and now other people post free games there too and I’m accumulating new games to play faster than I can play them!

Honestly I just watch streamers like Cohhcarnage or Lirik as they pretty much only play new and indie games and they tend to give honest opinions on what they play. Literally just bought an indie game today after watching Lirik play it.

Steams discover queue + Splattercat on youtube for indie games.

Do the Mario RPGs count

I like the timing-based mechanics because they make the fights feel less like glorified menus. Sure menu-based fights can be strategic and entertaing, but sooner or later you’ll end up in grind city just mashing the confirm button to see number go up. Not a thing in the likes of Paper Mario and Bug Fables.

Statistically speaking most people can find new games in their library they bought and never touched for years. It’s a genius marketing strategy on steam’s part.

I’m going between Stardew Valley and Coral Island. The latter especially because of the last update with dates/hangouts.

Steam’s storefront and various gaming communities on Lemmy.

Steam’s discovery queue is a great source for finding new games. It shows you a list of games based on the games you own and never repeats itself.

Mine is pretty useless. I have 4 hours of playtime on CSGO from 10 years ago and it thinks I want more FPS.

Manually checking out the similar games section of the ones I do play has been a lot better personally.

Edit: not to say discovery queue isn’t good, just that the similar section is another good option

I played a bit of a closed beta I’m not really allowed to discuss in detail, but I had a blast! Looking forward to the full release.

Also got part way through episode 2 of Walking Dead, I forgot so much of this story. Handing out 4 pieces of food to 10 people (well, 2 to 8 since the kids were guaranteed) isn’t easy 🥲

And story time: My partner and I were down 146 to 149 in Destiny 2 crucible. We were separated and each crouching with glaives so they wouldn’t see us on radar.
I waited around a corner and filled someone with stab holes while she simultaneously killed some guardian with a sword (which kill in one swipe), since we were holding 2 zones it gave us the 4 points to steal the win! Glaives are so much fun in pvp

Camping sounds fun, I’m jealous!

secret of mana was good but honestly seiken densetsu 3 improved on it so much.

on the other hand, earthbound combat is so nostalgic to me.

There’s no other system that quite captures the feeling of, “Shit, that was a lot of damage. Do I try to heal them before it rolls to 0 or just spam attack and hope to end combat before they go down?”

I liked the puzzle battle style of games like Disgaea 2.

Not a big fan of the classic “let’s all stand face to face and take turns bashing each other” approach.

I agree, throwing enemies into stacks is much more amusing than everyone just standing around.

Roboquest! An absolutely delightful high-speed rouge-lite first person. It feels very Borderlands-y, in both aesthetic and gunplay. The weapons include deagles, revolvers, assault rifles, machine guns, crossbows, grenades, (dual) chainsaws, power fists, Iron Man palms, shuriken, flamethrowers, and more! It’s packed to the gills with secrets, challenges, and skill expression. Tons of fun, like, 25$ on Steam, two player co-op with matchmaking, go buy it.
