CrabAndBroom, do games w What game surprised you with their length?

Untitled Goose Game, but the other way. Got to the end of what I assumed was the first world, but it turned out that was the entire game.

Still a good game, but if I’d known I would have waited for a sale or something.

I do not want games which “nearly do this” in your opinion

Do not want replies like “there’s no such thing” because there are. I know of one game which nearly does this completely

🤭

But seriously, here’s my recommendations.

Doom Eternal, commonly on sale for under $10. I only play the single player campaign. I’ve played through this game well over a dozen times and I love every minute of it. I can’t get enough of it.

Cave Noire, for Game Boy, only released in Japan. It’s a turn based, randomly generated roguelite, played in bite sized dungeon challenges. I never knew a turn based game could get my heart pumping so hard! Every time I finish a stage it feels so good and is so fun I need to stop and tell someone about it. 🙂

The new Indiana Jones game which is fantastic

chloyster,

Been super excited to get back from my trip to be able to play this!

Anissem,
@Anissem@lemmy.ml avatar

It’s really superb, I can’t say enough, I hope you enjoy it as much as I have. Don’t skip the side missions, they’re great too. I was sad to leave the Vatican. Let’s hope they continue to make these new Indy games!

DdCno1,

Just make sure you have GPU that can do ray-tracing, since it’s one of the first games that requires hardware support for this feature. If it can, the game will likely run very well and look just as good.

chloyster,

Yeah with my 3080 I’ll be able to run it pretty well I think. Unfortunately I can’t do the full ray tracing since it only has 10gb of vram :/

I believe it needs a minimum of 12 for full ray tracing

EveningPancakes,

There’s a modified .exe that will allow you to enable full ray tracing on a 10gb 3080. I tried it last night and it worked pretty well, getting between 40-70 FPS on the area under the Vatican and the sequence going to Ciaro. You just have to set DLSS to performance and the texture pool to low (note, this doesn’t mean that textures will be low quality, just the cached amount is low so you may see some pop in at times).

Here’s a thread (sorry it’s reddit) that includes the download - reddit.com/…/indiana_jones_and_the_great_circle_p…

chloyster,

Oh awesome, I’ll check this out. I’ve been playing the last couple days and the game really is good. Been running it great without rt and am almost done with the Vatican

Epic gave Celeste to me for free & oh boy it’s one of the best games I have ever played. Also got Ocmo on ios for free & it’s an incredible game.

Caves of Qud, baby. I don’t have much free time, and it is endlessly entertaining AND it boots super fast. Nice.

Dragon’s Dogma 2. IYKYK

Been playing a bunch of stuff lately! Still deeply in love with Caves of Qud, a modern (ish, 14y of development) rpg in the classic rogue format. A true rogue like. Beautiful music, cool setting…

I got a steam deck so couch-compatible games like Cobalt Core, Get to Work and Enter the Gungeon.

Besides that, the usual rounds of Tarkov, and some Delta Force to try it out post release

No Man’s Sky. Again. It keeps sucking me back in.

EU4 with Anbennar mod – update just released with a bunch of new stuff.

I’ve never pointed and laughed. I thought that only happened in cartoons.

Just got Legend of Spyro: Dawn of The Dragon working on RPCS3 last night on steam deck. Absolutely love that trilogy, even if I did play the games in reverse order. Only problem is how I cannot properly save and need to save state any time I wanna save. Hope I can reload those save states easily from the steam game mode thing.

Other than that, played through a short Christmas themed side story VN for Brok the Investigator called “Natal Tail” last night. Short, simple, expanded a little bit of world lore, and was in general a fun enough experience. Didn’t have voice acting, but it was more than okay without it.

Arguing that buying something means you own it is much more digestible for the general public. Arguing that the video game codes run slightly different on your machine than you would like is esoteric and a non-starter. This is not a matter for the government, just don’t buy shitty games. Literally no game is required to be bought.

uis,

This is not a matter for the government, just don’t buy shitty games.

This IS a matter for the goverment. “just don’t buy shitty X” is “just use magic” argument.

ILikeBoobies,

The point is not enough people understand it to gain any momentum

Vampire Survivors is $5, and I got like 90 hours out of it without buying any DLC.

Grimpen,

One of the first ones I thought of as well. Lots of indie games that are lots of fun that I’ve gotten for less than $10. I’ll add Stardew Valley and Slay the Spire, but they might be more than $10.

A bit more World of Warcraft. I got most of the anniversary items I want, now I’ll do some more achievements.

Then I started Windblown, the next game from the Dead Cells devs. I guess it’s coop, isometric Dead Cells. It’s very fun, but I feel harder than Dead Cells. I finished my first run today, and the end was pretty nerve wracking. As for the coop part, that seems pretty dead right now. The game’s in Early Access, so that doesn’t help, but I only ever a saw a single open lobby. I might check it out a bit more, now that I have won once.

Then I was about to re-play Disco Elysium, but got sick again, and was in no mood for any story games (which I why I started Windblown). Maybe this week, maybe next, but definitely this year.

Also, pretty good timing with me re-playing FF7R last week, since Rebirth is coming to PC end of January. I’m really looking forward to it.
