copygirl, do gaming w I hate battle royale games
@copygirl@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Not hating on people who like and enjoy PvP games, but to me it feels like it’s a good way for a developer to make a game that doesn’t actually have that much substance. Lacking content? Nothing to actually do in the game? NPCs are difficult to make interesting to fight? Just have players shoot each other. It’s basically content that creates itself, not to mention (if you have good matchmaking) the difficulty ramps up naturally without you having to write better enemy AI.

I just want to fight stuff alongside other people, rather than potentially making another person’s day just a little worse because I shot them before they shot me, you know? Is that too much to ask?

Fallout: NV and Skyrim. People kept recommending them to me but neither really clicked. I put about 20 hours into each before just kinda dropping them and not looking back. Even tried mods since everyone says they’re better modded, but just found I was spending more time modding the games than playing them. Maybe Bethesda games just aren’t my thing.

TUNIC, FEZ, Nier Automata, Outer Wilds.

I also have a soft spot for Paper Mario and TTYD, those soundtracks are full of bops

CaptainDogwater, do gaming w Games that have stuck with you?

Easily RimWorld for me. The stories that play out over time, and how to make productivity more efficient live in my head rent free.

Portal 1.

Something about the ambiance mixed with the puzzles really stuck with me. I replay it almost once a year just to relive it.

Spaenny, do gaming w How many steam deck folks are here and what are you playing?

I have been playing a lot of BotW and DRG on it. Playing BotW on it is amazing, for DRG or mainly any shooter on it there is the problem of me not being used to aim with the gyro properly yet.

DungeonPastor, do gaming w I'm going back to the basics this summer. Minecraft.

I’ll always have a soft spot for Minecraft and it’s open world base building goodness.

If you want “Minecraft, but more grown up,” I can’t recommend Vintage Story enough. It’s actually an offshoot of a survival modpack for Minecraft if I recall correctly. A more involved crafting system (i.e. knapping tool heads out of stone, casting and forging metal tools, etc) and a threatening winter make for a very fun survival game. Still in active development with a pretty good pace of new content regularly, and a lively mod scene.

I really need to get back into LoR and continue to terrorize people with Teemo. Subbed!

Terraria - I just don’t understand what you’re meant to do or why it’s interesting.

I actually really like TOTK though, it’s a big improvement over BOTW with a slightly more alive world and the vehicle creation stuff is fun.

Kindajustlikewhat,

Idk if I’m just dumb or something but I have tried to play terraria on 5+ separate occasions and the controls and UI just DON’T make sense to me. Like how to craft?! How to equip? How to do stuff? It was just so confusing. I tried on mobile and steam deck. I even looked up the controls online and mapped it out. It just never clicked for me. I felt like an 80 year old using a smartphone for the first time.

Extrahammer, do gaming w [Possible spoilers] For those who played Outer Wilds, what was your favourite part of the game or your most "Ha-Ha!" discovery ?

Brittle Hollow spoilerRealizing that Brittle Hollow crumbling actually results in you being able to uncover more mysteries. I always tried to find some solution before it collapsed and frenetically search for a solution that didn’t even exist at the time. The simplicity of just waiting didn’t even cross my mind for so long.

Nintendianajones64, do gaming w How many steam deck folks are here and what are you playing?

Steam Deck install base: less than 2 million

Nintendo Switch install base: 125+ million

But by all means let’s talk about Steam Deck.

Here we go again…

What does this even mean? People shouldn’t talk about it because it doesn’t have as many users?

Amiral_Poitou, do gaming w What’s everyone playing this weekend?

Where are my ToTK folks ?

eldrichhydralisk, do gaming w What are y'all's all time favourite game OSTs?

This is going way back, but the 7th Guest soundtrack had lived in my head since the first time I saw the game. Really great atmosphere, equal parts creepy and playful, perfect mood for a haunted mansion filled with puzzles.

Opteryx,

The haunted jazz aesthetic of the soundtrack is so enjoyable!

Jentu, do gaming w Whats a game that everybody seems to love that you cant stand for one reason or another?

Any game that has daily login bonuses or a bonus for playing every day. Animal crossing pocket or whatever it is. Pokémon go. A bunch of afk phone games. A bunch of gacha games. It just feels so shallow to me. Like, I’m not being manipulated to play something, I just end up feeling so guilty to lose a streak I’d rather delete the game.

While not a daily login bonus, the weekly and monthly tasklist of Forza Horizon 5 killed the game for me. It triggered some sort of fomo and I would rush in every week to grind the new tasks/events. That burned me out very fast, so I could not enjoy the rest of the game.
