Tidus in Final Fantasy X always annoyed the hell out of me.

Any self-exploding enemies immediately get on the BS list but these dudes in particular.

Edit: Game is Dark Souls 2

ceenote,

There’s a hateable mob in every souls game

DeS: anything that flies

DS: Dragon legs and crawling giant skeletons

DS2: Those guys. Also pony plow town.

BB: Winter lanterns and shark giants

DS3: prison guards and DLC crow Knights.

Sekiro: Anything that causes terror status

ER: Furnace golems, bleed dogs, omens

Forget what I said, there’s multiple hateable mobs in every souls game.

Quetzalcutlass,

Don’t forget bonewheels!

Just bought it without any problems and fired it up. I like that two-factor authentication is the default. The game runs quite well on my Linux Mint desktop, with really no problems at all so far. Of course, this is Early Access, so I’m sure there will be plenty of bugs here and there. But so far, it’s a good experience and I’m having fun with it! :)

Wolfram,

Good to know it works well in Linux! I was afraid after Riot acquired the game that it wouldnt get a native Linux port or have extra hoops to run through Proton.

Riot actually cancelled this game and then the original creator bought back the rights, so Riot isn’t even involved anymore. Which is good news in my books.

Partly because games are so inefficient these days that we have no choice. Looking at you, Unity and Unreal

Nooooooooo, you’re just envious because you don’t have a RTX 5090 that only costs 15k dollars and needs to generate fake frames at 400*300 to maintain a stable 60FPS

If youre my age, then games were advancing in graphic fidelity at the same rate as getting better and more in depth. Devs were able to learn from eachother on what makes a game great. Then the horse dlc happened, and suddenly devs could only make games that could be chopped up into pieces and sold as an al a carte game instead of the 7 course meals they had been making.

And even with that chopped up BS, they’re still not as in-depth as games were just kinda starting to get.

The reasons for adult you playing games younger you played are:

  • They remind you of your youth. This happens when you get old enough to notice your youth is gone before you could even take full advantage of it.
  • They don’t require a subscription and they don’t disappear when the publisher pulls the plug.
  • They’re more fun.
flameleaf,

All of the above

I’ve been playing the older Ys games. Ys seven and back. These games are great. I didn’t play a single Ys game until last year. No nostalgia for them. Practically no JRPG nostalgia either as I was a Diablo/Baldurs Gate type gamer 20+ years ago. Now I’m eating up all these old JRPG games

salacious_coaster, (edited )

I only ever played Ys 3. The ratio of music composition quality to gameplay quality of that one was insane.

network_switch,

Something about this series where the games seem budget for their era but has great polish. Good music. The stories are fun entertaining adventures. The characters are lovable. Gameplay is fun to me and iove the music. I’m impressed with how the games on PC have ultrawide support. Eventually I’ll get to 8-10 where everyone hypes up 8 as best in series. And all the modern games are easy enough for pretty much anyone to run on cheap hardware. Great series

yaroto98, do games w Finished Dying Light: The Beast, it was a good game.

I agree with the truck mechanic. The map would have been too big without them. I also would have been cool with a fast travel mechanic from one unlocked safe zone to another.

My biggest complaint was arrow retrieval. It’s not just me, but it’s either bugged or only working worse than DL1. Arrow retrieval for me is 1 in 20. I loved DL1 bow/arrows. I’d run around and gather a big group, jump up somewhere high and rain down headshots, and retrieve most if my spent arrows.

LostWanderer,
@LostWanderer@fedia.io avatar

Yeah, I wish they'd almost went with a fast travel mechanic with safe zones, instead of the truck mechanic. Since Safe Zones are sprinkled just right across the map, and grant you access to most of the world. Though, I do feel the driving immerses you in Castor Woods and makes it easier to cover massive distances.

Projectile Retrieval is a mixed bag for me, sometimes I could retrieve just about every crossbow bolt I shot. Other times, barely any of them can be retrieved, especially in stealthy situations you should get more back. I find it deeply annoying and that needs to be tweaked; I also liked to reach fairly high spots and rain hell on the Infected. In most cases Dying Light 1 basically gave you all your arrows back; Dying Light: The Beast it feels closer to 30% of the time, you get a projectile back (I ran a crossbow).

yaroto98,

I will admit to enjoying splatting zombies as I drive through them. If they brought the parquor/fighting challenges back, I’d probably seek out the driving/splatting challenge.

LostWanderer,
@LostWanderer@fedia.io avatar

The Parkour and Fighting challenges were so much fun in the original game and Dying Light 2; it gave me an objective to follow post game, trying to improve my parkour and combat skills. I hope that they do bring them back at some point.

As for running over the Infected, yeah, it's fun especially when you unlock the skill that increases truck durability! Suddenly stopping and running over virals that fly off the truck is also super fun.

Not on steam, not on my radar.

winkerjadams,

I love steam as much as the next guy but monopolies are bad and we should support other businesses when we can. When Gabe dies who knows what happens to all the steam games you “own”

Both husband and wife in It Takes Two.

Quicky,

I just read this to my daughter and she pissed herself laughing. We beat the game together and said the same thing at the time. Terrible parents, and annoying as shit. They literally tore apart their daughter’s favourite teddy!

FatVegan,

So this was the point where i was really perplexed. I wasn’t the biggest fan of the game, it was fun and i liked parts of it, but for me it was just not really challenging enough as a platformer or whatever. So playing it, i at least hoped that the story would be good. But they were just complete dickheads. I thought they learned something from the teddy, but they were just hiding it? They are either horrible parents or the writers are.

Quicky,

I think the writers may have read the feedback afterwards. There’s a nod to it in Split Fiction (much better game), where the same elephant can be found on one of the early levels. If you destroy it, you get an achievement called Rose’s Best Friend with the caption “You made her cry”.

DoucheBagMcSwag,

I fear that early access will kill this. Sure it will provide some money that might pay for the rest of the development, but streamers will play it now - der that it is literally work in progress in vast parts and maybe take another look once it finally releases, but the hype will be gone at the release.

MrScottyTay,

For this game it was either this or the game never released at all though

Chee_Koala, do games w Hytale is OUT NOW in early access!

I’m excited, I don’t know a lot about it but I think the voxel survival genre has a lot of room for new ideas. Let’s see if they hit any good ones!

Goodeye8,

I wouldn’t be excited. The reason Hytale exists in the first place is because Mojang blocked server microtransactions which effectively killed the income of the Hypixel server. They’re also planning paid mods, paid cosmetics and minigame MTX (whatever the fuck that means). I think there’s a legitimate concern that the game is going to end up heavily monetized and it’s going to turn into a meta-game platform like Roblox.

But if your want to be excited about Minecraft “clones” there are other choices. If you’re looking for something more action related there’s Allumeria which is aiming to be like a 3D Terraria. It’s not out yet but there’s early access planned for 2026. And if you’re looking for more a more survival experience there’s Vintage Story. I will 100% recommend Vintage Story to anyone wanting an actual survival game and not just survival elements that turn into mindless busywork 1 hour into the game. There’s so much work that goes into almost everything you do in Vintage Story but you’ll feel so rewarded for putting in the effort. You can spend a whole year in game and every in game day have a goal for the day.

Delphine from Skyrim. Mostly because I wanted to like her. I get why she is a paranoid mess, and if I held a grudge for every NPC that sent me on a stupid pointless quest this list would be miles long. It hurts because she was supposed to be on my side. One of the few people that was with me from the beginning, who actually wanted to find out what the heck was going on with the dragons.

Her ultimatum made me FUS RO DAH her off the top of Sky Haven Temple.

Jakeroxs,

The ultimatum was so stupid fr, like the only reason y’all exist at all is because he turned against his own kind. Just blatant blind racism.

the_crotch,

Parthuunax was a mass murderer and loyal soldier of alduin before he had his “come to Jesus” moment. If you knew about a former concentration camp commandant living in Argentina, and he was dedicating his life to feeding orphans the last few years, would it be racist to turn him in to the authorities?

Jakeroxs,

If its clear they’re making amends and have completely changed their worldview and it had been thousands of years and the punishment is death… No I don’t think I would.

the_crotch,

If they haven’t taken responsibility for their actions they haven’t made amends. Also, I suspect paarthunax is biding his time until the LDB dies and there’s nobody who can stop him. Thousands of years is nothing to an immortal, what’s a few decades more?

Jakeroxs, (edited )

What do you call the way of the voice and leading the greybeards?

His actions and words clearly indicate to me he has changed, literally the only reason Alduin was defeated both times, this argument is silly. Why didnt he take over the entire time after Alduins banishment if he was just biding his time.

Edit: to use your comparison, if said Nazi turned on the Regime, literally taught the allies everything they needed to know to defeat Hitler, was instrumental in their defeat, and then proceeded to spend the rest of their life dedicated to undoing the damage… Yeah I’d say that’s clearly a change of heart and at the very least they shouldn’t be put to death lmao.
