Recently beat Lies of P.

I am a huge souls fan, and Elden Ring is probably my favorite game of all time.

I was expecting Lies of P to be a competent souls knockoff, but it’s so much more than that.

It has some issues, sure. But I really think the game is superb. I am beyond excited to see what they do next in the genre. They got so many things right.

Stardew Valley for the third or fourth time. Still as nice and calming as the last time. Such a beautiful little perfect game.

TheLongPrice,

1.6 patch will drop soon hopefully

Still plugging back into nioh 2 when the mood grabs me. Such a perfectly balanced system.

Jagged Alliance 3.

Love me some turn based, action point, squad combat action. Theres some flaws and its a bit limited in a few ways, but its a solid title.

Wish the genre got more love.

Someone should take this project on as their first foray into game dev. Bonus points if it’s a middle-aged woman.

Does Rock Paper Shotgun count?

the_gmg,

No, they are owned by Relx (fka Reed Elsevier), known for PAX and the scam which is the academic publishing industry.

DM’ing my first DnD campaign ever with some of my friends, all of us are new. Besides that, Cyberpunk for the second time, and Baldur’s Gate for a fourth time with a friend who just got the game.

I'm trying to make D&D happen since playing Baldur's Gate. Scheduling will be hard. I GMed one tabletop game of Cyberpunk 2020 about ten years ago, and I played in a short campaign of Star Wars: Edge of the Empire, so I'm not totally new to tabletop RPGs, but I'm new to D&D. I'm going to make it happen one way or another though. I'm too deep into D&D Beyond looking up spells and level up guides at this point.

Moonguide,

I was looking into Cyberpunk! Reading through my files I realized I got the sourcebook with the game. Ended up getting Carbon 2185 and already looking into making some homebrew systems to take it into a shadowrun esque bent. Will have to talk my guys into that one though, some of them aren’t interested in a cyberpunk run, maybe once I pitch those HBs they’ll get into it.

I had to take up DM duties for this run and assure everyone I’d take it easy on them, so they can learn systems and all. Turns out I really like world building and planning sessions, but RPing characters is really hard for me. I got a very monotone voice and my range of accents is very limited. Making up for it with a ton of planning though. I’ll make sure to pass on my workflow to whomever ends up DMing after me.

Do Worlds Without Number instead of DnD. Trust me.
I also started with DnD and slowly realized it’s not a very good ttrpg.
You’ll see when your players start sighing deeply everytime combat starts because everyone knows that this will take the whole evening.

Moonguide,

Hm, gonna look into it. Combat has been fun with my PCs honestly. I’ll ask for feedback once the campaign is over.

WWN is free, so I highly recommend!
I’ll be happy if you at least take a quick look at other ttrpgs. :D

DnD is obviously the most famous one by far. The problem is that it’s so famous, most people don’t think that there are in fact other games out there, often with newer ideas and better design, faster and easier mechanics that does not get in the way.

There is also different styles to consider.
The combat focused every PC is an unkillable superhero powertrip style fantasy, like DnD5e and Pathfinder.
The lethal think before you act type old school style fantasy.
The narrative Powered by the Apocalypse style games.
The investigative thriller type GUMSHOE and Call of Cthulhu games.
Etc etc.

Im running my favorite of all time game Delta Green (great podcast here if you want to listen) as the main game right now and Forbidden Lands in between, for our fantasy fix. Great games as well!

r1veRRR, do gaming w What type of game you want to see that doesn't fully exist yet?

I want a shooter-esque game crossed with MOBA stuff. Basically, I just want Monday Night Combat, Battleborn or Gigantic to come back.

ideonella,

I miss Monday Night Combat’s vibe a lot

PorkTaco, do games w Just finished my first playthrough of Prey by Arkane Studios and WOW.

Finally got around to playing it a couple years ago. Fantastic game. Intriguing story and satisfying game play that’s just unique enough to stand apart. I really really enjoyed it.

TheAgeOfSuperboredom, do games w Just finished my first playthrough of Prey by Arkane Studios and WOW.

If you haven’t played it, try Mooncrash too! It’s a great side story to Prey.

restingboredface,

That will probably be my next purchase. I’m excited yo try it!

Bye, do games w Just finished my first playthrough of Prey by Arkane Studios and WOW.

Tried it, game was too hard for me. I think it’s the kind of game that rewards you for investing a lot in it, which isn’t for me. It also didn’t really hold my hand enough. I play only a few games a year and I don’t have time to live in a games world and figure it out.

I imagine others like it for those reasons.

I still need to play it, been meaning to go a playthrough on my Steam Deck but every time I hear about Prey someone is always saying it’s a great game.

prograhammingdev, do games w Just finished my first playthrough of Prey by Arkane Studios and WOW.

I just played through it this year for the first time as well (gave up a few hours in on the original release). Really is an awesome game with such a surprisingly great intro.

I get a lot of my gaming news from Spawnwave on YouTube. But I dunno. In depth reviews are hard.

Veticia, do zapytajszmer w Jaka oferta na kartę z jak najdłuższą ważnością?
@Veticia@lemmy.ml avatar

Jak zalogujesz się w mój Orange na stronie (nie ma tego w aplikacji) to możesz przedłużyć ważność darmowych gb po doładowaniu co automatycznie przedłuża ważność środków i konta. Przedłużenie ważności na rok kosztuje 29 zł.

Veticia,
@Veticia@lemmy.ml avatar

Przy okazji jak będziesz doładowywać po 5zł to za każdym razem dostaniesz darmowe 10GB ważne 2 dni. I to właśnie te 2dni będą przedłużone do roku. Łatwo można uzbierać ogromnie ilości GB.

Tak jak napisałam tak to będzie działać. Przedłużenie ważności GB przedłuża też ważność konta (dzwonienie i odbieranie) o rok.
