Idontoah, do games w What are some game series you would like to see revived? And if possible, which entry should the new game follow from?

I just want more 2D Castlevania games. It’s been forever.

simple,

Well, there was Bloodstained which is castlevania with everything but the name. Same lead gamedev, too.

TachyonTele,

Bloodstained is fun. I’m also enjoying Deaths Gambit

Waveform,

Definitely this. It seems MVs with a leveling system either aren’t popular, or are too hard to balance. Plus there’s the giant inventory of weapons and gear that would probably be too time-consuming to create for most game devs.

RightHandOfIkaros, (edited ) do games w What are some game series you would like to see revived? And if possible, which entry should the new game follow from?
  • Brandish, based on Brandish II
  • Kuon, based on Kuon
  • Clock Tower, continuing from Clock Tower 3 but actually good
  • SimCity, based on the original.
  • Neon Genesis Evangelion, based on Neon Genesis Evangelion 2: Evangelions
  • Record of Lodoss War, based on the Dreamcast game
  • Policenauts, but only Kojima can be the one to make the next game
  • Tresspasser, based on the original
  • Danganronpa, but more like the first 2 and not v3, though I wouldn’t mind another try at Ultra Despair Girls with an actually decent story
  • John Romero’s Daikatana
  • MechAssault
  • XENON - 夢幻の肢体 (XENON - Fantasy Body), I wouldn’t mind seeing a remake in the style of something like Life is Strange or a similar type of story game for this one, though I would demand it keep the original 90s art style
  • Parasite Eve
  • Megaman Legends
  • King’s Field
  • Panzer Dragoon Saga
  • F-Zero
  • Hybrid Heaven
  • BattleTanx
  • Dino Crisis
TachyonTele,

MechWarrior 5 is a lot of fun

RightHandOfIkaros,

Yeah, it is, but it is fundamentally different from MechAssault. MechWarrior is a simulator and MechAssault is an arcade shooter. Its like the difference between Forza Motorsport and Forza Horizon, theyre both fun but they’re also very different games.

Alexstarfire,

Are you the only person that likes Daikatana? I thought that game was pretty universally panned. I haven’t played it myself, mostly because all I’ve heard is how bad it is.

RightHandOfIkaros,

Remaking a good game is stupid. Remake the bad games and give them another chance at success.

I would definitely want a reboot of Daikatana more than a direct continuation. Daikatana has a lot of cool ideas that just weren’t realistically achievable when it came out, but certainly now are pretty easy to implement with modern development tools. The game has been “off the market” so to speak for so long that making a sequel would be stupid compared to just rebooting it entirely.

Miphera,

The Brandish games have such a good soundtrack, I especially love the one in Dark Revenant! It’s also such a cool concept, you could easily make a modern game with that type of premise.

masterbaexunn,

Didn’t know lodoss war had a game. Fuck yes

As written, this is a tough one to answer. I’m well served in most genres bar a few, and I probably wouldn’t want to see new entries from the people who made the old ones. For instance, I miss stealth games and Splinter Cell, but I wouldn’t want Ubisoft to make it. I would love to see a new Metal Arms, but Blizzard (and now also Microsoft) owns that one. I miss racing games like Burnout and F-Zero, but I wouldn’t trust EA or Nintendo to make a successor that makes me happy. So really, I think I want new stuff that’s more of a spiritual successor type of deal.

I’ve been wanting a new, proper Splinter Cell for years. Michael Ironside is cancer free now and still alive for a couple more years (hopefully). I dream of Sam Fischer getting a final send-off with the correct voice actor. “One final job” with him old and grey. But yeah, Ubisoft wouldn’t make it right, sadly.

MurrayL, do games w What category is games like Life is Strange and Until Dawn?

It’s called a branching narrative. Most common related Steam tag for finding similar games would probably be ‘choices matter’.

GregorGizeh, do gaming w Android games for girls?

without having read any comments i bet 99% of them are people telling you that you shouldnt give your daughter girly games even if it is she who wants them.

cafuneandchill, do gaming w Android games for girls?

Itch.io has a bunch of virtual pet games for Android:

itch.io/games/platform-android/tag-virtual-pet

muzzle,

Of course, itch, thank you! How did I forget to look there?

cafuneandchill,

No problemo 👍

PapstJL4U, do games w It genuinely upsets me that Valve spent their time and resources on another Dota variation
@PapstJL4U@lemmy.world avatar

Isnt Icefrog one of the lead devs? I guess he likes this style of game. How many Total Wars, 4x and CoDs were released while Valve made one more Dota-like. Valve has some cool people working, vut O don’t see a Suda51, a Raphael, Swery or Co, who has the focus to develope such a single player experience. If the flat structure with ‘at will’ project focus is still a thing, than sp games have probably a problem getting devs.

Geth,

Since they are probably working on other stuff as well could this mean that Icefrog is the only lead who can take a project to completion reliably within Valve’s organizational structure?

ObsidianZed, do games w Valve lifts NDA on Deadlock, streaming and talking about the game is now allowed.

Just fyi, I saw this posted in the announcements channel of their Discord server that you can join from the game’s main menu.

Berttheduck, do gaming w Is Callisto Protocol a hidden Dead Space remake?

It’s very similar but nowhere near as good. I got it for free on playstation a while back and stopped playing it to go back and play the dead space remake again.

_Lory98_, do games w Can anyone suggest some good co-op games for two people?

A few I’ve played with a friend of mine: the We Were Here series, Portal 2, Monster Hunter World, Factorio and Deep Rock Galactic (which we both didn’t like, but it’s pretty popular)

ShaggySnacks,

Seconding the We Were Here series.

einlander, do games w Can anyone suggest some good co-op games for two people?

Left 4 Dead 2

@andrew_bidlaw@sh.itjust.works avatar

In the same vein but very different: Warhammer: Vermintide 2 and Darktide. No local co-op and cross-play for them though.

corvi, do games w Can anyone suggest some good co-op games for two people?

The whole We Were Here series is marvelous. Asymmetrical co-op puzzle games. My friend and I’s recent games list looks very similar to this.

We also do a lot of single player games with one of us streaming over discord. When it’s a slow-burn puzzle or mystery game, it doesn’t really matter who is actually controlling.

For those types, I really recommend Return of the Obra Dinn. We’re currently working our way through the entire Frogwares Sherlock Holmes collection. The old ones are so terrible, which is a greatness all by itself.

Duamerthrax, do games w What games popularized certain mechanics?

Serious Sam The First Encounter claims to have invented event cued music. Ie, intense fight music stops once an encounter is over.

Quake is believed by many to have invented Rocket Jumping, but Marathon (1993) had two forms of it first.

Marathon and Rise of the Triad both released with duel welding pistols in the same week.

frezik,

I dispute the Serious Sam claim. The LucasArts iMUSE system was doing things like that years before. Even among fps games, the first Dark Forces game used it.

Duamerthrax,

I might be miss remembering the claim. It was from a documentary, so I might be able to find to when I get home.

frezik,

It’s also possible they just didn’t know. LucasArts didn’t push the system all that much in their PR. You’ll see it in some bullet points on the retail boxes, and articles of the time might make a passing reference to it. It was quite a remarkable system for the time and they were very low key about it.

Duamerthrax,

Probably just that.

chanibal,

And ROTT also had rocket jumps.

KingThrillgore, do games w Geoff Keighley: No Silksong in Gamescom. Team Cherry are still cooking.

Silksong soon to join Duke Nukem Forever and Half Life 3 in the halls of “never released.”

RightHandOfIkaros, do games w What games popularized certain mechanics?

Metroid, which spawned more than half of all indie games.

cyberpunk007,

More than half seems bold, otherwise I agree

RightHandOfIkaros,

It sure feels like more than half of them label themselves as some blend of metroidvania, as long as it isnt a cardbattler or a roguelike, its 100% going to label itself a metroidvania.

cyberpunk007,

I guess I just look at it as you’re saying FPS, MMO, RPG, RTS, etc are less than half.
