loie, do games w Games to play with my late 40s brothers?

Every year I enjoy the hell out of Left 4 Dead 2 around Halloween. If you guys have never played it, oh you’re in for a fun time. Super cheap and runs on a potato at this point if your Xbox brother can find a computer.

The Borderlands series might work. Also I believe L4D2 might run on all those, if y’all wanna coop some zombies?

Hmm left for dead 2 seems possible for steam deck at least. I’ll check with the others. Yeah we could do co-op, but I don’t think we wanna play against other humans. Just something we can catch up an have fun for two or three hours each week

One brother is on an Xbox One is on a PC One is on a steam deck with WiFi hotspot.

That’s going to be the limiting factor.

Are you specifically looking for something to play against each other? There’s some pretty good options for co-op games with crossplay, and that might make for a more friendly experience, but if you’re in the mood for something competitive, options are a little more limited.

Some potential options:

  • Destiny 2
  • Monster Hunter Rise
  • The Ascent
  • Borderlands 3
  • Warframe
  • Remnant 2

If you all had a PC, you’d have a lot more options. Maybe two of you should consider going in on a Steam Deck for Brother #3 for Christmas!

It doesn’t have to be against each other, but I think at least to start we wouldn’t want to play with other randoms cos we’re all pretty amateur level.

Yeah we’ve been trying to find something but like you say the platforms seem to be a problem for most things

I am not privy to your financial situation, but can you three pool your resources and find a common platform?

Tbh not really. I’m the only one who’s at all flexible - I can do steam deck or old laptop (3050). But electricity is an issue for me, I’m not on mains electric just solar & batteries, and the steam deck is much less power hungry. Both my brothers have kids and homes to pay for. We’re not broke but can’t really upgrade tech without having to budget. We were hoping to find something that’ll work for us all.

To enjoy yourselves doesn’t require that you all buy the latest gaming rig or even something new or identical. As long as what you decide on has games in common, you’re good.

The most shocking to me, is that those servers are still up and running. In a day and age of dead games, it’s a serious feat.

Brumefey,

Yes that’s crazy. The game has the Electronic Arts label and the servers are still operational. It’s not exactly the same servers but some people invested time and money into migrating the data without any guarantee that the player would login ever again.

fantastic post, I wouldn’t have considered that fan setting issue on Bazz…

wonder if one of the linux fans speed apps can replace that functionality to some extent

I miss the classic era of DAoC and still hum various town music to this day. Cotswold being the most recurring.

Wait, the guardian isn’t your character?

Seriously though, I never got near those numbers. I did put about 2500 hours into TFC and TF2 before it became a bot hellscape.

lolrightythen,

Maybe 2500 on 2 accounts that were both my gf and I on rocket league. Usually on the same team. Over several years in our 30s.

Maybe hit 1000 on worms2demo online as a kid.

Respect

Brumefey,

At some point you don’t play the game because you enjoy some relaxing time on it, but because you have to. That’s were I put my limit, now. No fun, stop playing.

She doesn’t even know that I’m a guardian for her

The Guardian in the back has that look on her face like she just lost a bet that you wouldn’t return until 20 years passed.

Brumefey,

And given that she is in the middle of the Shrouded Isle extension map, next visit will probably be in a few years. I bet she will still be exactly the same, unaffected by the time going on.

I looked up my old character just the other day—my account must had been compromised because all of my gear was gone.

I could totally see myself going back to play again and pick up where I left off (after 18 years), but I don’t think that’s possible anymore.

I thought that was eq1 at first glance

Hackworth,

Ditto, I was about to start waxing poetic about my bard.
