Bloons Tower Defense 6 is easy to get into and also can return to the level if you quit out.

Overwatch 2. Since the changes from old Overwatch, there is no real point in anything other than Quick Play, which means 5-10 minute games, and you are free to leave at any moment

    Good luck with putting that down. After the first 30 minute stage, you only want to continue

    Very easy to pick up auto-battler. Short matches, but quite a lot of tactical depth.

    Another easy auto-battler would be Super auto pets. Easy to play on short breaks.

    The kbin owner needs to make things simple and intuitive. It shouldn't require reading pages of introductions and explanations to access a platform like this. That is one thing Reddit did well, is making things super easy and straight foward. All this fediverse stuff shouldn't require people to learn- it's just a forum.

    @kuontom@kbin.social avatar

    While I understand the fediverse may pose a learning curve, please note it does not refer to a forum, which is why there are introduction pages. As for Reddit being straight forward, it's been developing for about 18 years now. Kbin in comparison is about two months into development.

    Phrodo_00, do gaming w Which Bluetooth game controller is great for all devices?

    My experience with 8bitdo controllers has always been great and they support a lot of devices

    I haven't tried their latest stuff though, only up to like the pro controller

    tal,
    @tal@kbin.social avatar

    I have a bunch of controllers that I got to use on a Linux system, and finally settled on the 8bitdo Ultimate for its Hall Effect analog sticks after nearly every other controller I had (a bunch of XBox or XBox clones) exhibited some degree of analog drift. Note that only their Bluetooth model has the Hall Effect sticks -- there are multiple Ultimate controllers.

    I don't remember potentiometer-based analog sticks being this problematic twenty years back, so I'm not sure if the controller hardware is just running with a more-aggressively-small dead zone today or what.

    Had moved away from a Logitech F710, which I was happy with except for the fact that some device somewhere near me had started occasionally causing its proprietary Logitech protocol to see drop-outs that Bluetooth controllers didn't see. Plus, OP wants to use his thing with an Android device, so he probably wants to stick with Bluetooth anyway.

    I'd historically preferred Playstation-style controllers, but too many games detect and nicely configure themselves for X-box controllers and don't reasonably deal with the Dual Sense I tried. Also, there are few PC games that leverage some of the unusual hardware features that the Dual Sense has, so you're paying in money and weight for something that you won't be using.

    While I like the controller itself and it's presently the best I've tried, I'll mention two major caveats:

    • It does not have rumble motors. This makes it lighter, but it is a feature that I would rather have than not. There are some PC games that do make use of rumble motors.
    • It has a Nintendo-style button layout rather than an X-Box style layout (at least the Hall Effect version does). 8bitdo does sell replacement buttons with XBox-style colors, if you're willing to deal with replacing them and remapping the buttons in software.

    Also, specifically for OP's situation, it does not support pairing to multiple devices. I have a keyboard that can pair to three and then just choose the destination device with a wheel. He may want that, if there are game controllers that can do that, unless he's willing to get multiple controllers.

    one2k, do gaming w Looking for a spaceship/sci fi game to play. Any thoughts?

    Not first person, but Starsector is my go-to for my SciFi fix. Trading, pirating, smuggling organs and selling them on the black market, exploring star systems for suitable planets to establishing your own thriving colony...there is a ton of options and something for everyone.

    ernest, do kbinMeta w How do we get an instance removed?
    @ernest@kbin.social avatar

    I'll try to take care of it today and potentially clean up the activity. For now, I've limited the traffic from that instance. I'm currently working on additional tools for moderators.

    crossmr,

    Hell Ernest, 7 months on, this is still an issue.

    Ni, do scifi w What's your Sci-Fi unpopular opinion?
    @Ni@kbin.social avatar

    I think this might be a truly unpopular opinion, but I could not get into the expanse at all. Just never got invested in the characters enough to stick with it. I've retried watching it 4 times due to everyone recommending it, kind of given up now!

    Also the latest star wars films killed any interest I had in star wars.

    loobkoob,

    That means you've missed out on Andor, which I think is better than any live action Star Wars (including, perhaps controversially, Empire Strikes Back)!

    It's mature, deep, detailed, grounded, and very political. The characters and world are built up phenomenally, and it's much more contemplative in its pacing, and it definitely treats its audience as intelligent rather than beating them around the head with obvious exposition. It feels more like an HBO show than your standard Star Wars affair, frankly. And it works as a standalone, too - it's not just yet more Skywalker family drama.

    Ni,
    @Ni@kbin.social avatar

    You ads selling that to me! I don't have Disney + so that might be an issue. I loved rogue one, but that was the last star wars thing I enjoyed.

    DuckCake,
    @DuckCake@kbin.social avatar

    Oh my sibling in Xenu, Andor is mandatory viewing if you have any love for Star Wars at all, but ESPECIALLY if you love Rogue One. It is absolutely incredible.

    Ni,
    @Ni@kbin.social avatar

    Well this has very much sold it to me!

    Just found this site - definitely going to be putting an effort in to getting the formula1 kbin populated.

    calixte,

    FYI, there is already a lemmy community for f1 gaining some traction. Do with that what you will, just putting it out there :)

    Sadly, until federation is working, it may as well not exist.

    That said, when it does start working I look forward to the battle of the f1 communities.

    It appears to be federating now.

    Ok Boomer, Mario isn't a real game... real games are like PubG, MW2 etc.

    Otome-chan, do gaming w No, you’re NOT a real gamer.

    I'll just be over in @GirlGames playing my non-games because I'm apparently not a gamer. btw I only own a switch but I did play my brother's ps4.

    I only play the most hardcore of games like Pretty Princess Party, Hello Kitty Kruisers, and Love Nikki Dress Up Queen.

    hi,
    @hi@kbin.social avatar

    Yes please stay out of the real gaming mag for alpha men

    Otome-chan,

    Sure, right after all these "alpha men" beat Panel de Pon on very hard. Manly men real gamers shouldn't have any problem beating such a girly game yeah? :3

    hi,
    @hi@kbin.social avatar

    That is not a real game, TopG would disapprove

    Otome-chan,

    So real gamers can't beat non-games? they should git gud.
