With most games, I don't mind just watching a playthrough, but this is one I'd actually want to play. Maybe in a few more years the emulator will have fewer bugs or I'll get a cheap 360 (or a new computer ). I'd forgotten how disappointed I was back then I couldn't play it on pc!
There is not a single word in the game, barely any control but the game take you through an emotional story.
It’s multiplayer in a sense that you might meet another player, they can help you, you can help them or just continue on your path and despite not having any words it just fell like a genuine, pure connection with someone.
Journey is indeed absolutely fantastic. It finally got a PC port a while ago after languishing on the PS3 for quite some years, and its hardware requirements are probably low enough in the modern era that practically anybody should be able to experience it.
My only gripe is that online randos seem not to understand the meditation achievement, and get antsy when you try to entice them to sit there with you until the achievement pops. And since you can’t type at them you can’t communicate to them what’s going on.
I got the trophy on PS3 back in the day but I haven’t successfully wrangled anybody into helping me get the Steam achievement for that yet…
Journey is an Art masterpiece, but one that you need to already appreciate Art to enjoy.
I got friends to try it, some of them enjoyed the experience, others found it boring as hell.
Never played Fable 2 myself but I can do nothing but applaud the commitment at 316 days, utterly putting my bitch ass to shame. Love these posts <3 Keep 'em coming
There’s definitely been some days that were rough just because i’d be busy all day that day or just couldn’t decide what to play lol. I think the latter definitely shows in some of my posts where i just kind of spent an hour dicking around in a game with no clear goal. And not to mention i’m a student who’s fortunate enough to not have to pay rent so i have a lot of free time. So don’t be too hard on yourself
I could not get fable 2 to launch at all on xenia on Arch. I didn’tolk further into it yet though, honestly I’m not sure if I can get any game to launch
I had an issue a few years ago where Xenia itself just would not work on SteamOS 3 (which is Arch Based IRC). I think i had to fix it by going into the Launch script that Emu Deck made and telling it to use a different version of Proton
Disco Elysium is definitely closer to the visual novel spectrum of video games than it is to something like Tetris. But make no mistakes, its narrative and impact would be much lessened were it delivered in any other medium. It is absolutely a perfect example of how you use video games to make art.
How do you even begin to care about anything in that game when you are basically mashing buttons for hours and just listening to people complain about how shit life is?
I get its an art piece of living the existence you are thrown into but it feels like a confusing mess even gameplay wise for the starting hours that people that have finished it I feel miss how unfun it is at first.
I didn’t even know why I was now stuck on the other side of a wall in a union dispute and I just couldn’t be bothered to restart the game to try something else after how long it took to get dressed the first time.
I do think the Spyro games are probably the absolute best of the collect-a-thon genre. Joyful and fun and with fun puzzles. I am worried I am too biased to say it though since I have 120%/100%/117% beat the games multiple multiple multiple times.
I think Bioshock 1, Inscryption, Portal 1 & 2(I believe that 2 wouldn’t be so loved if we didn’t already love 1, I like to think of them as a set), Silent Hill 2, Resident Evil, Nier Automata, and Okami.
Glad to see Okami mentioned here. It was poorly marketed, which basically killed the development company… But it was so good.
Some people have called it the best Zelda game never made, and I believe the description is accurate. It has all of the mechanics of Zelda’s puzzlebox dungeons. It’s just a different setting, and the “tools” to solve the puzzles are your brush abilities.
My only real complaint about the game is that it was long. Like every time I expected the game to be wrapping up, it would introduce an entirely new region. But that length also meant it was able to deliver a fully self-contained story that didn’t rely on cliffhangers (sequels) to finish. Sure there were some sequels, but the original story stands on its own without them.
