Common, whatever graphic, cube themed, low poly game with music in midi… that whole school talk about and every yt influencer too.

It’s all about blindly following the fashion. Again.

Noita. Got a good deal on the steam sale. Took a while to get over the hump of not knowing what the heck is going on and dying a bunch but getting better at it has been fun

Brkdncr, do games w Yep, I actually own 7,255 games on Steam. I’ve played 23% of my library. I regret nothing.

How much have you spent

atomicpoet,

A few thousand dollars.

Never bought a single game at full price. Almost all the time, it’s at least 90% off. Lots of game bundles abound. And free games are given away all the time.

Oh sorry sir you are not playing these games on a phone or tablet platform therefore you are not really playing true games, you are only consuming mindless entertainment.

You’re really busy posting on the internet for someone that has 7.000+ games to play with 77% of them in backlog, and a family to spend time with.

That other thread got weird and defensive real fast.

ChapulinColorado,

Tends to go that way when the take is so dumb and disconnected from reality. Might as well have shown dick pics with diamond encrusted micro transaction “rewards”.

atomicpoet,

Great idea for a future thread.

23% average game completion rate? Or “has been loaded at least once”?

atomicpoet,

Unapologetically, I’m a non-completionist.

Only complete the games you’re compelled to complete.

sugar_in_your_tea,

Exactly. I have something like 10-20 “complete” games because they either give 100% completion for rolling credits or I really enjoyed the game and ended up completing the achievements anyway. Of the rest, I’ve probably rolled credits on 80% of my “played” games, because sometimes I just lose interest before I reach the end, while still enjoying my time w/ it.

Games should be fun, and if they stop being fun, move on.

They said they “played” 23% of the games, not “completed.”

lol I’ll feel like I’m heading in the same direction😅

I’m just starting “blasphemous” and “inscription”. I just completed “Axiom Verge”.

Hmmm? The UK isn’t part of the EU anymore so they won’t have much impact lol.

biggerbogboy,

That’s why it was a completely separate, smaller one

finitebanjo,

Just threw me for a loop for a moment that it uses the same name and that this page displays links to both.

biggerbogboy,

thats fair enough, it was a bit confusing for me at first too.

LaGG_3, do gaming w Any Strong Opinions on Games in my Steam Wishlist (provisional) from 2024?

Didn’t read the whole list, but Tactical Breach Wizards is amazing. It’s a must play if you’re into the genre.

Tenderizer78,

Are y’all trying to lure me to the dark side (i.e. hermit life)?

But Tactical Breach Wizards, I played the Next Fest demo and enjoyed it but removed it from my wishlist because they took down the demo. More than games that just never put out a demo, a game that puts one out and then consciously decides to take it down, those tend to be bad more often than not.

They put the demo back up so now it’s back on the list. Not a fan of complicated time-travel plots, I’ve been burnt before with them, but I’m intending to give it the benefit of the doubt.

LaGG_3,

It’s been a minute since I last played it, but the time travel is mostly just a story reason for the ability to undo moves in-game. The story is more character driven.

Tenderizer78,

Specifically I don’t like how time travel can render all the events of the narrative mute, and also because I just can’t imagine beating a chronomancer in combat (and the antagonist is a chronomancer according to the marketing).

If it’s just a maximum of 10-seconds of time travel then that’d solve both those issues.

The GBA SP could not arrive soon enough. Idk how the hell we survived so long on those dim ass screens. Playing outside in broad daylight was the only option.

Trainguyrom,

I found the best experience with my GBA was simply to use it in a dark room with my MadKatz purple clip light

I just built my first computer since 2001 with Endeavour as OS, and bought Cyberpunk and Robocop from GOG.

Also just recently played through Drova and that’s the most fun I’ve had in a game recently. Not quite as good as Gothic 2, but well worth playing.

I ended up making a rather large amount of purchases from GOG: the entire catalog for Prince of Persia, Crysis, Crysis Warhead, Vaporum, Hotline Miami 2, and Men of War: Assault Squad.

I hope you feel better soon Perfect Dark!

Wish i could get a hold on these manuals to switch games but after looking some it seem quite hard. Would love to print for my own use and for something to my child to look at just like I did when I were younger. Oh well.

Sad to hear about the condition and I hope you get well. Why do these things happen to good people who make a change in the world?
