MHW Iceborne is fun

Diablo Immortal on mobile is shit

GammaGames, (edited ) do gaming w Any Playdate owners in here?

I love mine! The catalog has a ton of awesome community games, itch has hundreds more, and the sdk is really accessible if you ever want to try making something yourself. The season has a lot of variety too, I played through most of it slowly but still have a few of the longer games to finish.

I use a book light at night so don’t have issues with the lack of backlight.

As for games… Factory Farming (source code available!), MDMA, and Hand of the Divine are my current favorites. I’ve played a ton more though, I’d recommend looking through catalog

Maerman,

Thanks for the thoughtful reply. I’ll return to this comment when mine arrives to remind myself of the titles you mention. I am very excited to get mine. I’m not a huge retro gamer, but I do love the creativity of constraint. Like setting a movie all in one room. You have to get pretty inventive to pull off an enjoyable experience with so little to work with.

Yakuza Like a Dragon.

It’s not Yakuza 0, that game was so much fun, the minigames were more interactive, and it only felt like a grind when shaking down Mr Shakedown, then putting money into upgrades.

Like a Dragon just feels slower, and more grinding. Story is cool, substories are amazing. But the minigames are less entertaining, and business management is as bad as Kiryus one.

I miss the cabaret so much

Clocked in around 45 hours in Cyberpunk 2077 and I think I might reach an ending in another 5 hours. I had good expectations for this game and this game is just way higher than my expectations.

Love the world building, the lore they are trying to build on side, references to Cyberpunk Edgerunners sometimes.

new rimworld DLC came out and that has taken up all my time. I’ve got to admit I had a few doubts about this one compared to the others, but sure enough they did it again and made an absolute banger of an expansion and now I have to sink another couple hundred hours…

I’m getting super close to finishing cyberpunk 2077. I said that last week when I was at like 80 or so hours. But uhh 100 hours in now and I swear I’m really close this time lol.

I really wish they hadn’t released the game so early and hadn’t released so much advertising hype about the game. If the game released in a functional state I think it would have had the complete opposite reception.

If they were to have released the game this January or something and only advertised what is actually in the game, people would likely be praising it left and right. I thought the writing and quest design was a breath of fresh air. I loved how the game gave you agency to make your own decisions and made you think about the implications of all of your actions. Even if many of the decisions didn’t directly matter in the grand scheme of things, it allowed you to roleplay and at least feel like you were staying true to how your character would react in different situations.

I liked how there were so many twists and turns during the quests. Overall it felt like I was playing a completely different game compared to the couple hours I had tried at launch.

Edit: side note, Outer wilds is so good. Give it 5 years and maybe you’ll forget some of it lol!

Hazmatastic,

My first playthrough clocked in around 200 hours. Now, I still do almost everything but it’s faster. Only 150 hours now… About to wrap up playthrough number 5. And I’ll probably be coming back in a year for 6.

Can’t get into outer wilds though. Feel like I’m 50-60% through the game and I have no idea when or how to go where I think I need to. Took a break to play CP2077 run #4 and look where that got me

spiderman,

Cyberpunk 2077 (Pyramid Song mission)Exactly my thoughts after my actions left Judy leave Night city. Should not have killed Maiko. Made me wonder whether could I have saved Takamura too.

Burningpizza, do gaming w Got a Switch today, need some recommendations.

You should also check out dekudeals if you like to get digital games. It tells you what is on sale as well as being able to organise by ratings from metascore. Hope this helps

pixelbound, do gaming w Got a Switch today, need some recommendations.

Nobody mentioning the Xenoblade series? If you like long JRPGs with 100s of hours of gameplay look at Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and 3!!! Recommend starting with the second one, but it’s not neccesary to play them back to back

Why play the old iterations? Is there a reason? I think the newer ones are more “beginner friendly”? With training modes and such.

sleepybisexual,

I play on an emulator, the newest game I have access to is the 3ds one

Huh, I was staring at outerwilds today thinking I should play again, but then immediately thought I’ll have to go here there here and realised it’s forever ruined for me.

So instead I’ve been playing stellaris.

chloyster,

The saddest moment of every outer wilds fan is the realization it cannot be played again :'(

haui_lemmy, do games w Is there a sort of collection/discussion of the stopkillinggames.com campaign?

There definitely should be. And folks who read this (sadly only those outside the US) should act immediately.

Edit: Thinking about it, you might wanna have a look at !anticorporate.

theorangeninja,

Yes exactly, there should be a community or something. But I am not familiar with creating lemmy communities or moderating online forums so I don’t think I am a good fit.

Thymos, do gaming w Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of April 14th

Dead cells. Never played it before, it’s hard but fun. Runs great on the Steam Deck.

TimewornTraveler,

That one was recommended to me in my search for a satisfying mobile game. Didn’t look into it much. Does it have mtx?

Thymos,

No microtransactions, although it does have DLC’s. There are some doors you can’t pass through unless you buy those, which is a little annoying but you always have another option. I do think it’s better played with a controller though since the action can be very fast paced.

im also pretty new to fighting games.
but from what i heared, playing arcade mode is verry diffrent from playing against other players.

especially in older games hi level cpus tend to fight dirty,
using input reading and op boss characters.

input reading cpus basicly have inhuman reflexes,
and will counter big comittal attacks like jumpins or tatsu as long as they are free to move.

so throw out non-commital pokes, untill they do something you can counter.

if its the bosses you are struggeling against,
only perseverance will help. (unless you find a move the ai cant deal with)
they are designed to take your quarters.

sleepybisexual,

Yea, arcade mode is hard, fuck thawk and that one jump combo.

The arcade mode is sf4 3ds is a bitcj too. How tf do I beat m bison

sleepybisexual,

Also, is haduken and hkick non commit? Those are my main pokes

moody,

Crouching MK a is less committing poke. It’s faster and has more range, and has less recovery time. You can basically always chain it into a fireball, and if the kick hits, so does the fireball. If the kick is blocked, the fireball has to be blocked as well.

Use the fireballs alone at medium range. If they jump over, a quick dragon punch knocks them down. If they block, you get some chip damage in.

If you really want to get good, look up frame info for your character. It will let you know which attacks can be chained into each other, and which ones are easier or harder to punish.

sleepybisexual,

Yea, I need to get good at dragon punch, can’t do it consistently. Will use low mk

Immortals Fenyx Rising.

Feels a lot like Ubisoft still don’t understand the appeal of BotW vs their usual icon vomit on a map, but the gameplay and traversal are decent.
