Monopoly comes to mind. Uno is another.

super mario 64 is exclusively played these days just to speedrun and break the game with whacky glitches. I dont think the devs expected players to fly up the stairs and clip through a door to skip half the game

AceFuzzLord, do games w Is it me or does it seem like review bombing on Steam has become so much worse recently?

I have not seem this happening because I don’t check reviews when 99% of the time the reviews are spammed with people giving the most useless review that tells you absolutely nothing and tries to be funny but falls flat immediately after posting or a bot wrote it and it’s the most factually inaccurate piece of shit you’ll ever hear.

I honestly wouldn’t be too opposed to Steam making reviews possible only after refund policy to prevent abuse. Really try and keep the trolls away and bots away, at least from paid games.

Absolutely. Also, I'd love to make it a rule that you can't start a review with:

"I really wanted to like this game but..."

Aww... Did you pumpkin? Are you SO disappointed that you don't get to like a thing you wanted to like? That must be so rough for you.
Anyone using that opener is immediately suspicious to me.

BarbecueCowboy, do gaming w What's the state of Linux gaming with Proton?

My Linux gaming problems have almost always ended up being KDE or Wayland problems and are mostly my own fault for running Arch.

Beyond those, there are a few very popular games that purposefully lock out Linux users. They usually blame it on cheating/hacking, but most major anticheat developers tend to support linux. Prime example of this is Destiny 2, you’re probably not going to play that on Linux. If you plan on anything with VR, you may still have a rough time, but Valve is probably working on something there.

So, finally made the jump a few months ago when upgrading (last PC to have windows, as I am very familiar with Linux), but didn’t really know how compatible my games were on Linux. I opened steam, and of my ~600 game library, maybe a dozen weren’t compatible. I haven’t really tested the epic and gog games I have much yet, but I assume that there isn’t going to be too huge of a problem with them. And for reference, my distro isn’t gaming focused (Endeavoros, Sway community edition), so I wouldn’t really worry about it much.

philpo,

For GOG Lutris is basically as easy as Steam.

Addv4,

Yeah, I’ve got that and heroic. I’ve downloaded a decent amount of the epic games, but haven’t really played them much, so I can’t really confirm that it’s a seamless experience on that front, though it probably is.

Vupware, do gaming w Thought's on this month's Humble?

I would say interesting is the best way to describe it. Atomic Heart is charming for its ambition but not the best game IMO, although I never got all that far in it. Sandwitch is also a novel concept. V Rising was very very popular, and I can only assume that’s for a good reason.

Looks awesome

I’ll never forgive Rockstar for not giving us Undead Nightmare DLC for RDR2.

Such a masterpiece of a game that they just let fall to the floor and collect dust while they kept GTA on a pedestal to milk it for every penny.

fu, do gaming w What is your favorite niche game genre ?

@BuboScandiacus your English is fine.

Roelland, do games w Once again, looking for PS2 game suggestions!

Highly recommend playing ‘Forbidden Siren’, but WITH A WALKTHROUGH. Amazing and scary story, but for a slow gamer.

Poogity, do games w Once again, looking for PS2 game suggestions!

The original Yakuza games! Yakuza and Yakuza 2. There is a patch out now to for the original Japanese dub for the first game

hatorade, do games w Once again, looking for PS2 game suggestions!

Some small niche games that I grew up with, that I am playing again with my Steam Deck:

God Hand - A third person beat em up that is funny, and really good. Full of flavor. Complete flop.

Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy - A third person shooter with psionic powers used as its main selling point. Good dumb fun on the PS2.

Spyhunter & Spyhunter 2 - A shockingly good reboot of Spyhunter by Midway games, where you have a car that transforms its mode depending on the mission. Part racing game, part spy game.

I-Ninja - A 3d action platformer that has Billy West as the lead, a ninja who accidentally killed his Master and now has to get him back and collect bullshit trinkets. Clearly more “just dumb fun” than anything serious.

007: Nightfire - The best James Bond game ever made. Better than Goldeneye. Plays like its an original movie, with solid gameplay, and I spent as many hours on the local multiplayer as I did with Halo. I didn’t see that, but I wanted to share that I love that game.

Evil Dead A Fistful of Bootstick - Still need to play more to see if it holds up, but its an original story featuring Bruce Campbell voice acting.

Sunsofold, do games w Once again, looking for PS2 game suggestions!

I’ll recommend Kinetica. It’s a one-of-a-kind racing game where you race through gravity-defying tracks as a person in a kind of iron-man negligee with wheels while listening to old-school techno.

Shadow of the Colossus is one of my favorite games ever, battling entities big enough that you run around on top of them, subtle storytelling, an enormous map for the time it was made, and fairly large even by modern standards.

The Tenchu games are also good: ninja stealth assassination.

Dark Cloud 2 is a kind of fun game. Smack your way through dungeons with a wrench and use the bits to build villages for your allies.

Bloody Roar is a favorite for fighting games. Fight to BIOS energy then transform into a wilder form, like a mole, a bear, etc. and you can kick people through the edges of the arenas into new areas to fight.

Devil May Cry is a classic.

Ratchet and Clank, classic.

Time Splitters is reminiscent of even older games.

Red Faction 2 wasn’t a bad little shooter.
