They actually are in a polyamorous relationship and Mario has a cuckold fetish and a saviour complex. At the end of the day, all 3 of them fuck Toad.

Phelpssan, do games w How do you keep track of what games you have played over the years?
@Phelpssan@lemmy.world avatar

I’ve been using backloggery.com for more than 15 years.

It’s a simple, manual site, but I think that’s also its main strenght - I’ve had too many issues with other sites where I wanted to add a niche game I played but it was not in their databases, inconsistent naming between games in the same series, no ability to add duplicates when I occasionally double-diped on a game and so on.

It has all features I need - you can add reviews, notes, track priorities, wishlist, borrowed games, make custom lists, get stats… it’s also community supported with no ads.

The site was a bit stale without development for a while, but Drumble (the owner) finished a major rewrite last year and started developing new features again. You can check his profile here for an example.

Go play this instant.

neon_nova,

I just started Shin Megami Tensi 4 on the 3ds. It’s my first time playing a game in this series and it seems cool. Maybe after I get through that.

mic_check_one_two, do games w Had a take about Supergiant Games that recieved a lot of pushback fromy teo longest eunning best friends.

I agree, but mostly because I dislike roguelikes. They get too repetitive and turn into a slog, and the success of your runs is often entirely dependent on which items you find.

I’d much rather have a tight, concise game with handmade maps. IME, roguelikes just pull the old NES/SNES trick of “well we can’t fit more data on the game cart, so just make the game harder to force players to replay it over and over again. That will artificially inflate the game length.”

Bastion and Transistor don’t need sequels, but I do wish they’d stop with the roguelikes.

samus12345,

I dislike roguelikes and soulslikes. It feels like that cuts out the vast majority of indie games being made nowadays.

tomi000,

Thats really not what roguelikes are. They wouldnt be one of the most popular genres ever if the base was laziness. Its more like being able to focus fully on the mechaincs/gameplay instead of spending countless hours designing worlds that either end up feeling repetitive anyway or you need to spend another few chunks of countless hours to make it feel good.

Besides, Hades is by faaaaaar their most successful game, it would be objectively stupid not to keep going with that at least for a while.

ZephyrXero, (edited ) do games w Looking to get into Sonic games

Sonic 2 for the Genesis is my favorite game of all time. So I’d suggest starting with that one, personally. First Sonic was good too, but the second game refined the controls and made some small quality of life improvements. Then Sonic 3 + Knuckles and Sonic Mania are also excellent.

The 3D Sonics have been pretty hit or miss though. The controls are dumbed down and not nearly as tight as the classic 2D ones, although Frontiers was a step in the right direction.

essell, do games w What games are just objective masterpieces?

My Picks…

Deus Ex (So many games try to be this and fail)

Cyberpunk (This one eventually measured up)

Alpha Centauri (Innovation mixed with familiarity and setting)

Fallout 2 (they’re all good. Fallout 2 is special)

Kotor (Star Wars story telling in a beautiful way)

Baldur’s Gate 2 and 3 (I’m stunned that 3 was a worthy successor)

Homeworld (One of the World’s truly beautiful games)

cletuspolybius,

I remember trying the demo to Homeworld when I was a kid, it came with one of those old school PC GAMER demo CDs. I think I was too young to understand how to play it effectively, but still loved it because I found the ambience of the experience so memorizing while hyper-cozy. Would you say it she’s well as something worth going back and playing now, and what of the sequel(s)?

essell,

I still repplay now and then, there’s no game like it.

Sadly the sequals failed to capture the grace of the original, though I’ve not tried 3 yet.

Blackmist,

Phantom Liberty is where Cyberpunk becomes a masterpiece.

Rage, Metal Gear Solid 1/2/3, Ace Combat 4, Okami, Tokyo Jungle, Zelda BOTW, Mario Odyssey, Sven Co-Op, Killing Floor 1, Final Fantasy 7, LISA: The Painful, Everhood 1, Deus Ex 1, Left 4 Dead 1/2, Portal 2, Battlefield Bad Company 2… Champions of Norrath and Return to Arms, Diablo 1, Baldur’s Gate 3 makes the list…NIER both games.

@PerfectDark I only recently cames across with project and it looks amazing - like a Jellyfin for games. I only wish there was plugin support for Retroarch/Lutris or something similar rather than needing to rely on EmulatorJS.

I love the work you've done sitting down with the team and it's definitely convinced me to put this one down as the next of my ever growing number of services going onto my homelab cluster.

As an aside, I also wanted to thank you for your writing in general. I used to do a lot of writing (heck, I did three quarters of a journalism degree a lifetime ago), and the effort and quality you put into this stuff has definitely started that itch in me again...

Please do!!!

I’d love to read more from ‘our’ circle of people. I find there’s…not enough, which is (in part, anyway) why I like to try my best at sharing this kind of thing. Especially in an atmosphere where short videos are consumed like crazy, where A.I. can slap together (poorly) someone’s writing, and where the big sites are just click-bait or begging for subscriptions and support.

IDK, I’d love to read whatever you’d be writing!

And thank you so much for writing this, I’m gonna link the RomM team to a new convert :P

We integrate for now with playnite (lutris for windows) and any handheld that can run muOS or Portmaster, but Lutris integration is on the list! Sadly, retroarch doesn’t have a plugin system, so for now that’s discarded

Hi! I’m glad you are enjoying RomM! A Lutris integration (not plugin but a direct PR into the core) is on the works!

Dunstabzugshaubitze, do games w Game media preservation, where?
@Dunstabzugshaubitze@feddit.org avatar

archive.org has old media of all sorts including game magazines, demos trailers and manuals.

a lot of video material has been uploaded to youtube, that was formerly hosted elsewhere. hell i’ve watched the old eoLithic frag movie from like 2002 a week ago.

vimm’s lair is also worth a visit if your are looking for old game manuals.

fullovellas,

Yeah I’ve sometimes used all those sites at some point, but they’re so vast (or have only manuals, like vimm’s lair). I was interested in finding something a bit more curated and game-oriented.
