Takios, do games w What did everyone grab during the Steam Winter Sale?
@Takios@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

Actually nothing this time. I got back into Elite Dangerous hard and play it pretty much every minute of my gaming time currently.

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

The action of not buying something signals the price is too high. Sales numbers vs sales expectations are the only metric that really matter.

FooBarrington,

It’s a very unclear signal as there’s a bunch of other possibilities too. Maybe I already have a similar game I prefer, maybe I don’t like the genre, …

Same, it’s tied with Ghost of Tsushima for favorite all time. I can’t wait for KCD2 in February.

knightmare1147,

Well now I am too. Let the campy Skyrim commence

For the longest time, I could never understand how anyone could put more than like 100 hours into a game. The most I’ve ever gotten is 200ish, but that was from years of drunk Rocket League with friends.

Then, in the same week, I got an adderall prescription and discovered Noita. I’m sitting at around 500 hours since June. That game has my soul.

My most played game over the last few years has been a timer I use to study for my statistics degree. With the steamdeck, I find myself hopping from game to game just to see how my oldies run. I might play 20 hours a week across 20 different games. Then do a 9-5 stint with the pomo timer on to do get projects going.

If you have ADHD The Legend of Pomodoro is not the cure but it makes getting difficult things done manageable. It’s pretty much an idler.

Easily minecraft. I love just fiddling with making random machines or decorating or optimizing pathways. Sometimes i just want to run around with a flaming sword and kill every cow i see

I really enjoyed Risk of Rain 1 but I don’t get why people like Risk of Rain 2. They completely changed the game and it plays like shit. Is it only possible to like it if you didn’t play the first one?

wirelesswire,

I haven’t played RoR1, but loved RoR2, but I also tend to prefer 3d games over 2d. I haven’t played since the latest xpac, so I don’t know if they fixed the things they broke or not.

I played RoR1 first, years before 2 was even announced. I still like RoR2. It’s been better and worse with different updates, it’s definitely a lot worse with the DLC and much better with certain mods. Both games are kinda broken and unpolished under the surface, they’re really not so different

Floey,

I really did not enjoy Risk of Rain, RoR2 however I played many hours of.

ByteOnBikes,

I only played RoR 2 and i never understood RoR 1.

Maybe you’re right - two different audiences?

TheOakTree,

I played RoR1 a couple years after release, RoR2 on release, and RoRR on release. I still like 1/Returns better than 2, but I like 2 as well. They are honestly pretty similar in gameplay, but I think the 2d style leaves a lot more room for boss moveset creativity.

secret300,

I played the first one when it came out and I still liked the second.

helopigs,

Totally agree - RoR is one of my all time favorites. Its strategic elegance and style just didn’t survive the translation to 3D

I have played a lot of FFXIV, but have stopped playing for a couple years now. Spending a fair chunk of time in Street Fighter and Monster Hunter, but I have a feeling that will change over the next year with Assetto Corsa Competizione and AC Evo potentially taking the monster hunter spots.

GTA 5 (Online).
Total: 2.253h
Estimated time spent in Online: Probably about 1900-2000h

The only reason I can spend so much time in there is because I have endless (had about 500mil) modded cash.
I never paid R* a dime beyond the game.

@TokenEffort@sh.itjust.works avatar

I’m thinking of a “make offer” option where the customer can choose any price and the dev can manually choose to sell to that customer for that price or not.

Appoxo,
@Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

So eBay?

imPastaSyndrome,

Sounds awful. A million people spamming 1 cent on all games

TokenEffort,
@TokenEffort@sh.itjust.works avatar

Lmao

I guess a minimum order thingy could be set but then the lowest offer would be spammed.

Then games with the offer option would be seen as bad or cash-grabby.

So the option should be to get un-broke and pay full price or wait until winter.

Stormdancer, do games w What MMORPG are you playing, and why?

GW2 is my jam. I love the painterly art style, Charr are the best beast-race out there, I like the combat system (WoW drove me crazy! Hated not being able to dodge). So… don’t listen to me.

Simulation6, do games w What MMORPG are you playing, and why?

I used to play Lord of the Rings Online every year in December because they have some neat events. Haven’t done it for a while (lost my install with a hard drive and never reinstalled).

TacoEvent, do games w What MMORPG are you playing, and why?

Wakfu. MMO in a kinda cutesy animation style. Combat is turn based, very final fantasy tactics (which I enjoy), and actually quite complex. You can spend ages min maxing your build.

There’s an actual lore and storyline (and crazy enough an entire TV show). Harvesting and crafting professions that are fun and useful. A kind of player housing. Mounts. All shop items are cosmetic or resets only.

It’s a great game that’s been around for a long time and isn’t going anywhere.

Jump on the Ogrest server, which is the most active international server today.

Cóż, odpowiedź brzmi przestać używać przeglądarek robionych przez korporacje, a także różnych zamkniętych freeware. Można mieć wiele zarzutów do Mozilli i one są słuszne, ale tak czy siak jest to wciąż najlepszy wybór i był nim zawsze. Prawda jest taka, że jak Mozilla zniknie to forki firefoksa razem z nią i wtedy tak, wtedy będziemy mieć problem.

lysy, (edited )

Istnienie Mozilli z jej Firefoxem jest jedyną przyczyną używalności Chromium oraz Chrome’a. Gdyby nie było alternatywy, tylko totalny monopol, mielibyśmy naprawdę ogromnie ułomne doświadczenie korzystania z Internetu. Dlatego podpisuję się pod przedmówcą - przestać używać Chrome’a, rozważyć Firefoxa. Nie jest idealny, ale jest dobry oraz jest jedynym bezpiecznikiem chroniącym przed całkowitą kontrolą rynku przez jedną korporację.

A można poprosić o wyjaśnienie dla kogoś nietechnicznego? Jak te forki wpływają na działanie Chromium i na internet jako taki?

Tylko pls, bez odsyłania do długiego tekstu w ang napakowanego żargonem ;_;

MrScottyTay, do games w What MMORPG are you playing, and why?

I’m not playing it at the moment but the most recent one i was actively subscribed to was ffxi. I find that now when I want to pay an MMO I stray away from the wow likes (if i want that style it’s xiv for me though). I like the older ones that use more archaic combat systems because they’re often very unique on a genre where everything now feels very similar.

Also here’s an obligatory “I miss Wildstar”

Kingofthezyx,

FFXI ruined all other MMORPGs for me, because there is nothing like it and probably never will be again.

fartsparkles,

What made it so special and unique? I missed out on it back in the day and it feels a little late to try and solo it (if that’s even possible).

memo,
@memo@feddit.it avatar

Actually, nowadays it’s very soloable: you can experience all of the story by yourself thanks to the Trust system. I only recently tried it, and control scheme wasn’t as bad as I expected (but you do need some patience). From what I gather you don’t really need to learn about macros and gear swapping mid fight in order to clear story content.

Kit,

You had to team up to accomplish anything, so it was easy to make friends. The game also had zero handholding, which made it incredibly immersive. You can still experience the game as it was in 2004 on the private server HorizonXI. It’s popular and has thousands of people online at all times.

Kingofthezyx,

In addition to the community-aspects others have noted, the combat system is a bit slower-paced and extremely strategic. The jobs(classes) are all extremely unique and the sub-job system allows you to play them differently as needed. You can switch jobs on one character so you really grow attached to your specific character rather than making different characters for different classes.

You can swap-gear mid combat which gives you a lot of situational flexibility that makes it feel like you’re actively contributing to your success or failure. As an example you might have a set of great for a specific ability, or switch to defensive gear if you draw the enemy’s attention.

Additionally, the story is really nuanced and the side-characters are often very realistic in their choices, motivations, and there is a sense of consistency throughout the world that really makes it feel “lived-in” in a way a lot of other MMOs don’t bother with.

Honestly I could go on and on. It’s just a really special world and will stick with me for life. Even a few years out from playing I still get the itch to go back constantly. Vana’diel is like a second home for me.

Kit,

Beautifully written and spot-on

Dualswords,

Horizonxi. It’s set in CoP era and has a population of near 2k during primetime. It’s been hella fun.

catloaf,

Wildstar was cool. I got a free shirt and Logitech keyboard out of their booth at PAX one year. (Never played the game, though.)
