Have you done any Last of Us, yet? Both games are excellent.

Darksouls1234,

I would agree that the first one is good, the second one is boring garbage in my opinion.

I like the second one better than the first.

daredevil,

Both have powerful stories, and I can respect a narrative that takes risks like TLOU has. I have some gripes with the second's narrative, but I would still recommend it to many. I've also been thinking about it recently, so I'm pleasantly surprised to see it mentioned here.

I think it’s totally fine that a game may not be someone’s cup of tea, but I recall the second game getting a lot of negativity for…some reason I don’t fully remember.

Outside of the story the gameplay is better, the tech is better, the environments are better. Even today it holds up as a powerhouse in these areas.

But, again, a recall a lot of people trashing the game, and I’m not saying that’s you at all. Don’t get me wrong. I’m just trying to remember why a certain subset of people online were going all apey over it. To me it’s absolute top tier game to this day.

Some of the popular complaints went into spoiler territory. Since I can't seem to spoiler tag on kbin, I'll only briefly mention that they generally centered around one of the main character's choices early on, while also targeting their appearance for being "unrealistic".

I agree overall. I also applaud Naughty Dog for the considerable number of gameplay options and accessibility features. If I remember correctly, someone has even beaten TLOU1/2 who was born blind.

Not gonna get into it here, but the lesson learned by the protagonist felt like it missed the mark a bit when looking at the events of the game after things were said and done. Ultimately, I think it's fairly minor considering that's maybe my main gripe. I suppose I had some issues with pacing too, and thought some aspects of the plot should have been fleshed out differently. I was hoping to revisit TLOU1/2 eventually to see how my thoughts have changed.

Perroboc,

First one. The second one… I’ve read it’s more of a vengeance story in the first half, and then you play the same story from the other side, making you see how awful revenge is.

Does it have scenes like the one with the giraffes?

ProffessionalAmateur,

Yep. I hated ND at the time but by the end of the game I was blown away. One of the most immersive incredible gaming experiences I’ve ever had (story-wise, both games I mean). As amazing as the first was I almost prefer the second… I’m still torn.

It’s not for every one though and it recieved a review bomb before it was released and a lot of those people still hate it.

To answer the giraffe one and without spoilers… yep there’a lovely moments in it that stick with you

I’m replaying it right now on Survivor. Great game but so grim. I can’t do long play sessions because I find it too taxing. It’s extremely polished so you can play it at any difficulty level and it works well.

I’m here now because I want to find another game to play alongside or after that isn’t so heavy.

Sid Meier’s Alpha Centauri

Spec Ops: The Line.

A bit dated, but one of the few shooters that makes you question your actions and view warfare for what it does to civilians and to soldiers. Definitely some memorable story moments.

5ibelius9insterberg,

This game is not fun. Not at all.

But I do not regret playing it.

Not so thinly veiled take on Heart of Darkness via the games industry.

Fantasic game. Intentionally meh gameplay. One of my faves, highly recommend.

Perroboc,

Really good, played it when it came out. That phosphorus scene with the bodies of the victims stuck with me forever

Against the StormRogue lite city survival builder with gorgeous art, awesome game mechanics and a fantastic dev team whom have basically built the game in collaboration with the community that’s risen around the game.

Kingdom Come Deliverance

filister,

This game had the dullest characters and the most boring/cliché story and the fighting mechanism is absolutely horrible.

Nfntordr,

OK… Thanks for informing me of your opinion I guess?

The Outer Wilds, Fallout New Vegas and Just Cause 3

ExtraMedicated, (edited )

I was also gonna say Outer Wilds. My Steam library is almost entirely indie games and not much else stands out to me story-wise except maybe:

Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice

The Upturned

Song of Horror

Withering Rooms

rustyricotta,

Cannot say Outer Wilds enough. Wonderful experience. Exploration and lore is everything in this game. But it’s not too much. Some games have exploration and lore just for the sake of having it. Whereas everything in Outer Wilds is purposeful and motivating to do.

Isn’t that the name of a mountain in (maybe) Scandinavia?

bblfrnz,

I’m sure you were thinking about Eyjafjallajökull.

    Sorry to kind of hijack… But does anyone have any leak tips for this set up?

    Omv… Portainer with a stack of VPN (gluetun) + qBitTorrent.

    qBitTorrent does not have the VPN set up in the software itself.


    With my VPN it has separate servers for p2p but I don’t know what to use for them to set up the VPN in qBitTorrent. Does it make sense to still use the VPN option in qBitTorrent?

    Should I set another docker up with gluetun that the original gluetun runs through?

    AceFuzzLord, do gaming w Looking for games with unique core mechanics

    I don’t know how many other games have done this (or if anyone actually cares), but Me And My Shadow. It’s a 2D puzzle platformer where you have to record your movements to move the shadow version of you in order to reach the end of each level.

    It’s a discontinued open source game that can be found on SourceForge and has a couple different level packs available for when you complete the ones already included.

    Tubi has one. I think it is called The Final Days of Planet Earth, and is about an insect-like alien accidentally brought here from a moon landing.

    Disable ipv6 if you haven’t already.

    Stuka,

    I’m pretty sure 1pv6 is disabled, I went rhoguh steps but I’m not 100% how to verify. Ipleak tests show falling back on ipv4 instead of 6, if that’s any indication

    iHUNTcriminals,

    Where did you disable ipv6? In your torrent app?

    Asking because I’m new not because I can help, lol

    Stuka,

    I had to follow a tutorial, I believe there was a file or 2 that had to be edited with something specific. I’ll try to find it for you when I’m off work.

    iHUNTcriminals,

    Was it in qBitTorrent? If not don’t worry about I’m sure I can find info for my os openmediavault

    Stuka,

    No, it was done through command line
