Delta_V, do games w Do you prefer RPGs or FPS games?

I like action games, including FPS, with RPG elements.

Borderlands and Diablo - I like that you can just jump in and start blasting without really having to read anything about the setting or characters

Fallout and Cyberpunk 2077 - slower paced and less immediately fun than the previous two, but the action does keep the story interesting

Pure RPGs can be fun as an engineering project - twisting the game’s systems to create unbalanced character builds.

FPS, but mostly because I no longer have the free time to finish a 50-100 hour RPG.

ByteOnBikes, do gaming w What EldenSoulsBorne boss gave you an embarrassing amount of trouble?

Maybe not a pushover, but I died an embarrassingly large number of times.

In Elden Ring, some of the evergaols and bosses wandering the worldmap were harder than actual bosses. Ringleader’s Evergaol took me like 10 tries.

The dancer in DS3 made my wife and kids check up on me.

Miimikko,

Ah hello there ‘Early Dancer PTSD’, my old friend.

Bojimbo,

Dancer has my favorite armor, so I always get her early. It’s a nightmare.

MrMcGasion,

Yeah, Ringleader’s Evergaol was rough, took me over 30 tries. I was a bit under-leveled when I first found it and after getting my ass handed to me for 10 or so attempts I decided to mark it and return later, went back after leveling up a bit and died another 15 times or so. Came back a 3rd time after defeating Mohg on my 4th attempt and finally cleared the evergaol after about 8 more attempts.

I still cannot believe that had you put a dog in your pocket. No way anyone could have guessed that

Damage,

In Day of the Tentacles you had to put a hamster in the freezer to send it to the future

In Full Throttle you had to unleash a bunch of toy bunnies on a freaking minefield to harvest their batteries

Definitely a different kind of creative thinking involved haha

knatschus, do games w Good game soundtracks?

Rimworld has an amazing soundtrack

Thanks for the recommendation. Listening now. I’m a few tracks in. Gorgeous so far.

t_berium, do gaming w Grand Strategy games?
@t_berium@lemmy.world avatar

Thanks so much for all the tips! Sounds like I’ll have to give Stellaris a go, when the next Sale drops.

Bannerlords 2 and the others you all mentioned, sound really interesting, too! Damn, the next Sale’s gonna kill me financially and socially.

GregorGizeh,

Stellaris also has recently received a subscription model, so if you want to just dip your toes it might be a lot cheaper for you to buy a month and get all possible dlc content for the game automatically (during that period).

@Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone avatar

I come to say stellaris too.

You won’t regret it, well maybe the countless hours you will lose to the game

fogstormberry, do gaming w Are there any voxel-rendered (if that's the term) game like Voxatron?

it sounds like you want an internal voxel grid and for all the art and animations to respect that grid. I don’t have any recs but I’m posting in solidarity because I feel the same way about pixel art games

onlooker,
@onlooker@lemmy.ml avatar

Much appreciated nonetheless. And yes, that’s precisely what I’m looking for.

remotelove, (edited ) do games w Me and a friend of mine were having a discussion on the holocaust and got banned for mentioning the N word. This is not the first time in games. How come they censor it?
@remotelove@lemmy.ca avatar

While I haven’t seen the previous conversation, looking at the title of this post and also at the title of the community, that leads me to believe that this may not be a community for political history.

Since many historical events (especially in regards to politics) may be controversial, painful, horrendously offensive, stressful or annoying, that also leads me to believe some people might have gotten pissed off reading that stuff in this particular community.

That is my best guess.

threelonmusketeers,

That was one of the more cinematic stage separations I’ve seen in a while. Beautiful shot from the upper stage camera.

Buzztiger,

Yes beautiful!

clothes,

I’m impressed by the quality of their onboard cameras, without the help of starlink.

threelonmusketeers,

Seems like they might be between ground stations right now. Haven’t seen live video from the upper stage for a few minutes. Telemetry still looks good though.

mp3, do games w Always Online / Live Service
@mp3@lemmy.ca avatar

The only time I will find acceptable the presence of an online service in a mostly single player game is when it complements it, and will still operate gracefully if disconnected.

Fuck these games that just stops working when they pull the plug on the servers.

Risk of rain and risk of rain 2

AnonStoleMyPants, (edited ) do gaming w Do you know any singleplayer games that are infinitely replayable?

Honesty I’m shocked nobody has mentioned Tales of Maj’Eyal or ToME for short. Extremely deep roguelike with story and it is getting expansions ans updates all the time.

Also it is open-source, so can be downloaded for free, but I would recommend you also buy it in steam for instance to support it.

Makeitstop, do gaming w Do you know any singleplayer games that are infinitely replayable?

4x games tend to be functionally infinitely repayable, since a single game often takes an eternity and there are usually many factions to play.

I particularly like sword of the stars 1 & 2. Honestly don’t remember which I preferred but I know I got an insane amount of time sunk into both of them.

Cataphract,

Currently looking for a new 4x game that will scratch my itch. Been going through tons but they all seem like watered down versions that “simplify” the process. Last game I played was SpaceEmpires (4&5), completely addicting but after over a decade of bugged games I’ve just completely given up on it. Definitely got my playtime out of it though, great game regardless.

MrScruff,

Have you played AI War? Or AI War 2?

PolandIsAStateOfMind,
@PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmy.ml avatar

Whoah you are probably first person i encounter that enjoyed SotS 2. First one was one of the best 4x in history though.

all-knight-party, do gaming w Do you know any singleplayer games that are infinitely replayable?
@all-knight-party@kbin.run avatar

Some single player games I've replayed often that aren't roguelikes would be...

Dishonored
Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 1 and 2
Prey 2017
Hitman, but specifically the World of Assassination games
Bethesda RPGs
Grand Theft Auto/Rockstar, specifically for me 5 or Red Dead Redemption
Dark Souls (I replay it on offline mode predominantly anyway)
Dying Light
Middle Earth Shadow of Mordor/War
Halo MCC campaigns
Mount & Blade series
Katana ZERO
Vanquish/other platinum games

Aurenkin,

Some incredible titles here, friend. Respect! I really need to play Knights of the Old Republic again.

all-knight-party,
@all-knight-party@kbin.run avatar

That's one that I was hesitant to include, because I feel like it's more to do with my love of the era Bioware made, and nostalgia than it is a promotion of how the game holds up nowadays. But I personally love KoTOR!

PM_Your_Nudes_Please,

, , , . , . . , , , , , .

I think you dropped these.

sag,

+1 for Katana ZERO
