conciselyverbose, do games w Would "suggest price" be a positive option for steam?

Wishlist vs purchase is already a signal that maybe you’d benefit from a sale. Seems like it’s enough. “Suggested prices” from gamers would be way too noisy to mean anything.

thebigslime, (edited )

Yeah I suspect the wishlist-discount-purchase nexus is sufficient and more reliable means to determine what the best price would be.

Deestan, do games w What games have you sunk the most time into?

Factorio for me. Steam has 3000 hours logged, but I played it for ages before getting Steam version so really no idea. Estimating 4000 hours total.

Satisfactory for me. 2000 hours and counting

Sixner,

I feel like I would love this game, but I already have plenty of other games to enjoy I’m trying to hold off.

Lots of rimworld time though.

Deestan,

Rimworld! For me it is right after Factorio in playtime list if I filter out idle or semi-idle games.

@Poopfeast420@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

World of Warcraft by a huge margin. A couple of years ago, I went through all my characters, and added the /played time up. I think it was already over 10k back then, and I’ve played a bunch since then. Also, I often delete characters, so I can’t count those. My sub runs for another 10 days, so I might take the time to check again.

Next is probably Diablo 2, but that was 20 years ago, when this stuff wasn’t really automatically tracked.

On Steam I have two idle games at 800 hours, FF14 650h, both Nioh games 600h each.

Nythos,

Likewise for me.

I have upwards of 6k hours in WoW and my next closest games is Rainbow 6:Siege is ~500

pupbiru,

for sure wow… i remember in xfire days it logged like 20-25k hrs

… i literally have nightmares where my character is reaching out of a black void sobbing “please im so lonely come back and play with me”

fuck that whole game

Cocodapuf,

I played Wow for the first 3-4 years after its launch.

I had a part time job back then, but otherwise I was playing wow. At some point my /played time passed a year, after that I refused to look. I don’t know if it ever got to two years, but I fear it may have…

kurcatovium, do gaming w What is your Game of the Year?

Disco Elysium

I know it did not release this yer, but I got to it now, so it is GOTY for me.

Kolanaki,
!deleted6508 avatar

I also finally completed the full story finally this year. I had always gone about 3 days in and started over trying completely different options lol

kurcatovium,

I got hooked, but I was like “what if I chose this option now?” all the time. So I started completely different character right after I finished. Got couple hours in, but… 1) it’s too fresh experience and I should probably give it a bit more time and 2) I wanted the new character to be this fascist, racist, egoist, alcohol and drug abuser, but damn. It’s so tough to play against some basic human principles.

Poopfeast420,
@Poopfeast420@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

I’m re-playing it right now, and it’s great.

kurcatovium,

I’ve played many different RPGs during my life, but Disco really is like nothing I’ve played before. Maybe, just maybe a little like Planescape Torment, but other than that? Nothing comes to mind. Which is unbelievable in this age, where most developers play it safe with basically sequels of successful games and new ones you barely can tell apart…

Poopfeast420,
@Poopfeast420@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

While Disco Elysium is like no other CRPOG I’ve played, I have to disagree with your other point, because Indies exist with tons of innovative stuff in there.

kurcatovium,

True, but majority of non-entirely-indie devs do exactly what I said. Sadly some indie too.

Vodulas, do gaming w Balatro is rated PEGI-18 and Among Us inspires disgruntled people with medical needs. What other video games have been secretly eroding the very fabric of American society?

Balatro is E for everyone 10+ in freedom ratings. We don’t give any shits about gambling imagery over here (Yes, I know balatro is not gambling and the PEGI rating is BS).

BmeBenji,

Good Christian Americans would never go anywhere near gambling or gambling paraphernalia.

Is that gambling in a Canadian tuxedo or gambling with jeans? Every hand you lose your pants…

SweetCitrusBuzz,

Not familiar with what is meant by Canadian tuxedo, so gambling with jeans.

Vodulas,

Jean shirt, jean jacket, and jean pants is the Canadian tuxedo

roguetrick, do games w PEGI gives Balatro an 18+ rating for gambling imagery

Reminds me of that Australian law that was proposed to make anything with a relation to casino games Restricted 18 but merely mature for exploitative slot machine loot box mechanics.

HawlSera,

I haven’t seen Loot Boxes in a game in awhile, I kinda prefer those to FOMO…

I think the perfect system is you earn Loot Boxes by playing that can contain anything, but you can buy the specific things you want at any time, the boxes themselves are unlocked through gameplay.

Heroes of the Storm did this, and god I miss that game.

I wish DBD did it

v4ld1z,

HOTS 2.0 did so much good, man. It’s a shame the game’s basically dead. Was a lot of fun to play with my brother

I realised that what brought me back to League was Wild Rift. Maybe of HOTS had a “mobile” adaptation, I’d come back. Just not much (if at all) a PC gamer nowadays

HawlSera,

There were rumors Microsoft were going to revive it, which lead to people playing the game, which lead to it getting balance patches again… but no new content drops sadly

v4ld1z,

Soon™

jagungal,

Sounds about right. I’d seen “slot machines” (we call em poker machines or “the pokies”) more times than I can remember before I was 18.

otp, do games w What are your favorite "gotta go in blind" games?

Inside. Made by the same company as Limbo, but Inside is much more “don’t look up a single thing”

superkret,

Thanks for the recommendation. Just bought both for $3 lol

otp,

Sweet deal!!

Limbo was alright for me, but Inside blew my mind. So if Limbo doesn’t float your boat, don’t stop there!

Hadriscus,

have a great time !! Inside is fantastic

darkstar,

Awesome! Inside is far better than Limbo in my opinion, but they are both good games

ConstantPain, do games w What are some video game quotes that is stuck in your head?

Gunnery Chief: This, recruits, is a 20-kilo ferrous slug. Feel the weight. Every five seconds, the main gun of an Everest-class dreadnought accelerates one to 1.3 percent of light speed. It impacts with the force of a 38-kiloton bomb. That is three times the yield of the city-buster dropped on Hiroshima back on Earth. That means Sir Isaac Newton is the deadliest son-of-a-bitch in space. Now! Serviceman Burnside! What is Newton’s First Law?

Serviceman Burnside: Sir! An object in motion stays in motion, sir!

Gunnery Chief: No credit for partial answers, maggot!

Serviceman Burnside: Sir! Unless acted on by an outside force, sir!

Gunnery Chief: Damn straight! I dare to assume you ignorant jackasses know that space is empty. Once you fire this hunk of metal, it keeps going till it hits something. That can be a ship, or the planet behind that ship. It might go off into deep space and hit somebody else in ten thousand years. If you pull the trigger on this, you are ruining someone’s day, somewhere and sometime. That is why you check your damn targets! That is why you wait for the computer to give you a damn firing solution! That is why, Serviceman Chung, we do not “eyeball it!” This is a weapon of mass destruction. You are not a cowboy shooting from the hip!

Serviceman Chung: Sir, yes sir!
