I still play my 3DS on bus trips all the time, and trying to find people IRL who recognise it. There aren’t many here.

By far my favourite console ever, if DS and GBA libraries (and ease of modding) are included. I didn’t even get through the most recommended games, let alone the obscure ones (like an Atelier-like game made by the Etrian Odyssey devs, Nora and the Time Studio I think, it was weird but interesting if somebody wants to try)

Don’t actually care for the 3D effect by now, but I’m happy it’s there, if only for showing off to people. Fire Emblem feels made for dual screens, and EO was literally so - I’m hoping they’ll manage without them. Besides that, mostly just good game library.

E3 2004! The HYPEST

We met Reggie, who’s about kicking ass and taking names.

And the DS is revealed…and it COMES OUT THAT YEAR?! Whaaaaaa

I was so hyped. I started saving my pennies right away.

The multiplayer experience was unbelievable. No cables, no square box thing to play more than 2 players. And you didn’t even need multiple copies of the game! Just all play Mario Kart!

The thumb strap was a neat idea, but not the easiest in practice. Though I did find it great for aiming in the Metroid FPS game, much better than the stylus.

And OF COURSE it was backwards compatible!

Loved it. Beautiful machine. I still have 2 DS Lites that work.

@Megaman_EXE Amnesia: The Dark Descent. It is an absolute masterpiece in it's genre, the next 3 scariest games I've played pale in comparison to it, and all of them are also by Frictional Games. Frictional is an A+++ studio.

Megaman_EXE,

I really liked Amnesia when it was first released. Also, penumbra is really good, too. I always recommend them to people! I think maybe I’ve desensitized myself to frictional games development style because I don’t tend to find their games scary anymore. Their latest game did have me tense for a bit, but it quickly wore off as I got used to it :(

I’m chasing that high of getting scared haha. I’m not sure what to do. I figure at this point I just need to play everything I can get my hands on

My mom had one go to shit in like 3-6 months, have avoided them ever since (granted that was like, 15 years ago)

Chadus_Maximus,

My Acer laptop has seen 10 years of daily use. The battery is obviously fucked and the w key had to be changed (no clue why) but it’s still chugging along just fine.

Did you use your laptop on a bed at any point?

Metro 2033 and Half-Life 2 lol, I cannot play horror games. I quit Metro, couldn’t help myself.

But at least I completed all HL games apart from Alyx. With all achievements on base HL2 and EP2.

Ravenholm was manageable if I play without sound 🤣 But there was a long tunnel section in EP1 that was very uncomfortable and dark, felt longer than Ravenholm.

Megaman_EXE, do gaming w let's discuss: non major systems

The 3DO.

I didn’t have many games for it, and emulation I think is kinda sketchy last I checked (I think the main emulator is all in Russian?) But it was full of FMV’s and all the fun that came with them.

Twisted: The game show is one of my favorite titles, but parts of it are definitely a product of its time (specifically the trivia)

sleepybisexual,

Cool :3

My favorite DS game by far was Lock’s Quest. It was the first game that got me genuinely emotional, I had tears in my eyes during the ending. I remember initially being disappointed, as kid me wanted a strategy game, not something where I still had to run around and repair stuff in real time. But my god, my opinion changed quickly and both the gameplay and the story captured my fully. The music was just the icing on the cake.

My most played game by far was Guitar Hero On Tour: Decades. Shredding Can’t Stop by the Red Hot Chili Peppers while sitting in a restaurant with my parents is one of my favorite memories of that time (with headphones of course). I believe this game single-handedly formed most of my music interests for my teenage years.

Finally, I have to mention Bionicle Heroes. I am a massive Bionicle fan (and currently rediscovering it through finally reading the books). This game is by no means a masterpiece, but it is a surprisingly fun first person shooter with great controls and decent graphics for the time. I adored it because my parents were very strict and didn’t let me play realistic shooters, but this way I could get my fps fix and play in the world of Bionicle at the same time!

My device was a Nintendo DS Lite, White with flame stickers that came with the Guitar Hero game. I loved that machine to bits.

The first fear game really scared me when I was younger. I was 16 maybe and that’s how I found out I don’t like ghosts haha.

Playing in ym room at night alone in the dark. Ghosts coming out that I can’t hurt haha

Fuck that was bad

Darkwood. Incredible 2d survival horror game.

MarcomachtKuchen, do gaming w What are the scariest games you've played?

I’m not a horror game enjoyers so my scariest games are Subnautica and Dredge both of which were already mentioned. But after reading some of your responses I’ll recommend you Hellblade Senuas Sacrifice. It’s not a horror game but it’s an incredible intense experience. Headphones are a must tho.

Megaman_EXE,

Hellblade had some of the best audio design I’ve heard in a game. I’m curious what games will take inspiration from it in the future

Cyv_, do gaming w What are the scariest games you've played?

I’ve really liked my time with Signalis. It does some neat stuff with it switching between the top down sections and first person puzzles/segments.

Megaman_EXE,

The world building and nods to other horror games was a lot of fun! I hope they make more horror titles in the future

Megaman_EXE, do gaming w What are the scariest games you've played?

Recently, some games that shouldn’t have freaked me out, but did, were parts of Outer Wilds and Subnautica. Subnautica, in particular, got me with a very good jump scare that I think made me jump harder than any horror game has in the past decade lol.

I find games that induce dread really help with being scared. If you have any niche titles I would love to hear them too. I must have missed a lot probably anything prior to 2005. But even recent titles there’s a chance I could have missed them too!

WalnutLum,

You should play voices of the void then. Game is chock full of random spooks with lots of very quiet and relaxing downtime, so they hit pretty hard when they happen.

@KingThrillgore@lemmy.ml avatar

The problem is the new wave of gacha games are really selling you on characters and Hoyoverse isn’t even hiding it anymore: The more money you pour into Zenless Zone Zero, the less clothes the Proxy wear in the unlockables.
