WTF, I remember getting Final Fantasy XV day one, getting pissed at the FOMO carnivals, and thinking surely they would rotate back in or all be included at some point. Still absolute bullshit.

Godort, do games w Games you really want to play, but can't or won't?

Outer Wilds.

I very much want to play this game. It’s everything I want from a detective puzzle game, but actually playing it gives me motion sickness.

bluegreenpurplepink,

Same here. I get nauseous playing most first person games so I miss out on a lot. The only thing that sometimes helps is if the game lets you slow down the camera movement.

Famko,

I’ve heard supposedly that sitting back further away from the monitor helps with motion sickness, so if you have some sort of TV screen that you could hook up the game to, that might work?

mybuttnolie,

same here. i can play it 30 mins max and then i get very nauseated. and you can’t really get anything done in that time.

Katana314,

My issue was, I did not feel the expected experience of “Each loop, you learn something new.” It was more like, every 7 loops, I might get into the thing I was repeatedly trying to enter; and then it might just be a bunch of random ancient messages that don’t teach me anything. On top of that, I really hated the ship controls, especially when they veer AWAY from the autopilot path to pull me directly into the sun. If the game had been remade without any physics system, and simple direct puzzle mechanics, I might’ve enjoyed it more.

ameancow,

Yah I keep hearing fantastic things about the game, but I can’t connect with the “looping” mechanic and the weird ship/floating controls make it hard to want to keep doing the same planets or whatever again and again.

And I mean, I KEEP trying to get to a place where I’m like “Oh yah, here we go again, lets do this” like with other games and it’s just not happening. I can’t find the fun part. Maybe I’m too old.

mech,

I bought it and went in blind, just because I heard it’s a really chill game with a great atmosphere.
But then the twist happened, and now that I know, it gives me anxiety, so I can’t enjoy it anymore.
I simply can’t play games with a time limit.
Without that, it would be one of my favorites.

Maybe this is an Avatar/ATLA situation, but as far as I’m aware Prey came out in 2017.

Different game. 2006 Prey is pretty dope tho, and it had radio segments featuring AM legend Art Bell!

Quantumantics,

There was indeed an earlier Prey game: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prey_(2006_video_game)

paraphrand,

This is the one I always think of.

Dark Souls III for 2016.

Even if you don’t mind the online only part, ignore this abomination. They botched the D4 campaign. It’s too easy and almost impossible to die during the regular campaign. It takes roughly two minutes to beat a world boss on the first play through.

fyrilsol,

That doesn't bother me. What made me gravitate to Diablo was how they did the story. The plot of evil vs good and angels vs demons in a eternal conflict is cliche and overdone. But I liked how Blizzard handled it and I've been glued to it for a while. Mephisto is my favorite character overall and damn they're having an expansion coming soon, that revolves around him, so my temptation will be even greater.

So no it doesn't bother me that it's "too easy" or "almost impossible to die", because my idea of fun is not to have a very frustrating experience.

STOP MAKING ME FEEL OLD, SIR!

TommySoda, (edited )

Here’s something I do that helps with “feeling old” when people point out things that happened 20 or so years ago.

The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion came out 20 years ago, but what was I actually doing 20 years ago? I was like 10 or 11 years old in middle school and my brother’s friend let him borrow the game over the weekend. It was my first open world RPG and I was so excited to play it and could barely even comprehend how big it was. I’ve basically lived two thirds of my life since then. My first job, moving out of my parents, my first apartment, getting my drivers license, my first car, my first real girlfriend, all of my neices and nephews being born, going to an amusement park for the first time, going to a movie theater for the first time, and basically everything else I can think of because I sure as shit don’t remember much from before I was 10 years old. So pretty much everything important that has ever happened in my entire life was between the time of Oblivion coming out and now.

So yeah, we are definitely getting older. But that doesn’t mean the time in between was just nothing. It feels like 2006 was yesterday because we often gloss over everything in between and don’t really focus on what was actually going on in our lives at the time.

Edit: spelling

Oof, turning 32 next month. Played almost all games from 2006, bit of a reality check haha.

orbitz,

Talk about feeling old I played almost all the games until 2006, but fewer of the list after and hardly from the 2016 one. Not trying to one up but figured good place to comment.

It’s been a fun time seeing progression over the years, haven’t stopped playing since my first Gemini (Atari 2600 knockoff that played the same games) system. Going from 2d squares to a proper video representation has been awesome. I always enjoyed the graphic improvements the gameplay has had its ups and downs but the remembered ones did that part right.

Jumi, do games w Games you really want to play, but can't or won't?

AC Shadows

I want to play it but fuck Ubisoft

anarchyrabbit,

Sail the high seas. That way you don’t support them and get to play it. I haven’t pirated a game for many years but some game houses deserves what comes to them

Jumi,

Nah, pirating is not worth the effort. I just don’t play it

Ok but how on earth did you miss The Legend of Zelda?

The original Japanese release of The Legend of Zelda was February 21, 1986, making it 40 in just under three weeks.

North American and European releases were in the summer and fall of 1987, though.

The picture with the red gamjng handheld shows a TRIMUI Brick Hammer, right?
I’m so looking forward to receiving mine and installing Songo#5 on it 😊

@PerfectDark@lemmy.world avatar

No, its just the Brick, not the metal Hammer version!

So, almost the same, but your version of is has some improvements (and a nice metal body!). You’re going to love it when it arrives!

zergtoshi,

Bro I am as old as Cooking Mama…

Also when will we get another game 😭

Lost_My_Mind,

You’re pretty young. Enjoy it. Soon you’ll get one grey hair, and then another. And another. Soon you’ll have back problems, and be regularly aware that you need to eat more fiber.

fyrilsol,

We all should take the time we have been given for granted, it's one of the values we really have. Because one day, we won't ever again get to enjoy what we could now. I try not thinking too hard about mortality and how eventually, I'm going to be too old to play nearly anything.

I have played nearly all of these games when they were still brand new or only a few years old. My back hurts. 👴
