SomethingBurger, do games w Crew 2 is on sale for a dollar on Steam, Epic, Xbox, & PlayStation until 23rd of September

Note: it doesn’t currently work on Steam Deck and Linux in general because of the anti cheat. UbiSoft announced they will add an offline mode, so maybe they will partially disable it later.

Been replaying Detroit: Become Human. The first time i tired playing years ago on Windows it would crash all the time. Now that I’m on Linux it runs great. I just beat the game amd have to say that it is an absolute masterpiece. So many options to choose from but at least from what I choose the story held together flawlessly.

My absolute favorite AC game. My wife just got me Sideshow’s Edward Animus statue for my birthday. It’s stunning.

conciselyverbose, do games w Why Do People Still Play Destiny 2?

Because the gunplay is really good. I never had a shred of interest in the story.

I don’t still play because the level and enemy design tanked when they went into expansion treadmill mode, but “a path forward” was never something I cared even a little bit about. “The path forward” is what killed my fun.

ByteOnBikes,

The gunplay is SO good. There’s just something about the way it feels that makes it so distinct from any other shooter.

I haven’t touched Destiny in two years. And every shooter I played (first person and the gears of war third person), nothing has yet scratched my Destiny 2 itch.

conciselyverbose,

I could pop cabal heads with [insert high impact scout, bonus if firefly] for days. Hell, I pretty much did on D1. Then D2, in addition to all the other bad design stuff to satisfy live service, also decided they wanted to try to dictate your gun choice in certain game modes with all the bullshit seasonal modifiers on untouchable enemies without specific perks.

All I want to do is run strikes on the basic races by myself. But they can’t milk me for money like that.

smeg,

I see this posted a lot, what does it mean? What is “gunplay” and what is so good about it in this game?

Generally shorthand for animation, sound, and somewhat game balance. As for what’s good about it I couldn’t tell you because I came into the game jaded. IMO the visual design is nothing standout and the aim assist on mouse aim makes the entire experience sleep inducing.

Prox,

Confirmed. The gunplay is amazing. I haven’t played for a year or two but I would jump back in today if The Final Shape included all the catch-up/prior DLC packs.

AC3 is kinda infamous for not being great but I think it was thematically the strongest. It just had a ton of pacing issues. If you liked AC4, I suggest playing through that to see Edward’s legacy in a different light. Or read the AC3 book which tells the AC3 story from a different perspective from Edward’s son, it also documents everything that happened after the game.

I started Planet Crafter and I’m hooked. It’s a low budget yet brilliant Subnautica like game with a higher emphasis on crafting.

I’ve been playing Tyranny as well. It’s a nice CRPG with factions in a bleak setting. A little obtuse with the consequences of dialog options. Still refreshing. I really could use the tank character in my party composition, but he’s such an insufferable square I’d rather not use him.

redlightdistrict,

Tyranny was so much fun when it came out. I played the blue/shield side and I do agree at times he was too rigid for my taste.

I sided with the rebels and Barik became this massive frustrated Northerner supremacist, despising Tiersmen every chance he had and urging me to let the Disfavored civilize them. Fuck that.

aaaa, do gaming w 800 euros? No thanks.

They would sell ps5s in a bicycle shop

I wish this had Steam achievements so I had more excuses to replay it.

The only Assassin’s Creed games I finished were 2 and Black Flag. I don’t remember how it ends, but it was so much fun!

Awesome game. I would sail for hours and listen to the men sing

They made an animated web series that follows Kenway:

m.webtoons.com/en/fantasy/…/list?title_no=5273

They made a similar style game with Assassin’s Creed: Rogue and with different characters. I enjoyed it, but not nearly as much as the original.

And IV will likely get a remake:

Hmmm I love Rogue, it’s such an emotional journey and to me the most compelling and interesting story-wise, seeing an Assassin turn into a Templar and underlining the hubris of the Order of Assassins

curbstickle, do gaming w TIL I can restore games on Steam, which I removed years ago

The bigger issue to me are games that were removed from steam and I can no longer get.

Which is why I don’t bother buying on steam anymore. If I’m buying, its DRM-free only.

Chuymatt,

I’ve yet to have that happen, I think. What games have you experienced that with?

Midnitte,

Nearly 900 games have been delisted.

There’s also Fable 3, which you can’t buy anymore because it used Games for Windows, which resulted in no more CD keys.

blindsight,

Right, but Steam still let’s people who own delisted games download and play them forever. (Well, assuming they’re not live service games with no servers, but that’s not a Valve problem.)

thingsiplay,

I believe you can still activate keys for delisted games. Meaning if you find a shop that sells them, you might be lucky. I never did that, just read reports of this. So can’t actually verify if this is true. Provided there is no additional third party launcher or activation that hinders this.

Baguette,

One example are most telltale games which still are still playable but not purchaseable (poker night at the inventory being the most recognizable for me since the associated tf2 items are also now that much harder to obtain)

curbstickle,

Honestly don’t remember the names, its been… Quite a while. I’ll have to open and check.

Iirc it was also some I stored as gifts that became unknown or something, and I wasn’t able to send them.

TachyonTele,

I have multiple delisted games in my library that I can still download and play anytime I want. They just don’t have a store page anymore.

    I have been playing it for 6 years. The gun play is great. It gets regular updates. I still have fun. I wish the pvp player pool was bigger so that match making would work better.

    intensely_human, do games w Why Do People Still Play Destiny 2?

    I play games for the gameplay, don’t really care about story.

    I haven’t played Destiny in a while but if I did it would be for the same reason a person keeps buying new sudoku books: I like solving the puzzles that the levels represent.

    I think Destiny is cool in that it’s co-op and you can encounter other players and temporarily team up with them.

    I really wish we had the computing power to make a game that was basically massively coop Halo: one big war against the Covenant that everyone can fight in on the side of Humanity.
