This, but it’s games I’ve played vs me trying to start a new game.

Why start one game out of my huge backlog when I can run through Frostpunk again. I know how to play Frostpunk.

SinningStromgald, do gaming w Just fuck off back to ranked already

And this why I just don’t play online multiplayer games. I’ll do couch co-op or co-op with a friend but never with strangers.

Cagi,

Helldivers 2 has been greast for this. I can play lower difficulties solo and when my friends are online I’ll play with whomever’s available.

Zamotic,

Stop wasting time on Lemmy and get back to spreading freedom and democracy soldier. Those bugs and robots aren’t going to get a taste of Liber-tea by themselves.

And hopefully tomorrow we get some shiny new toys to play with.

andrewta,

Check out guild wars 2. Yes it is mmo but the pve side is about as laid back as you can get. You literally don’t have to talk to anyone if you don’t want. Or you can find a group and play pve. Or you can try pvp, but I’ve never tried that side of it.

Dudewitbow,

pvp is very toxic, but a player never has to go into it, however a user has to go into WvW if they want. legendaries strictly for Gift of Battle.

andrewta,

Good to know about the legendary items

SorryQuick,

Wvw isn’t toxic though, unless you play on monkey’s server.

Nithanim,

I heard sPvP is toxic but I have not played that. For WvW it depends on the server/commander/guild. There are certainly commander being very aggressive about getting the absolute maximum out of it but it also ranges to “just follow me so at least have a larger group”.

And yeah, PvE is pretty chill. I find it fascinating time and time again at AB that it is possible to speed through it without any communication.

andrewta,

Sorry not sure what AB is

Nithanim, (edited )

Sorry, AB is short for “Auric Basin”. Or more specifically, its map meta event.

Edit: To elaborate there are some more map meta event short names:

spoiler- AB: Aurric Basin - DS: Dragon Storm - THP: Thunderhead Peaks (Keep/North; Oil/South) - DBS: Death Branded Shatterer

andrewta,

Thank you.

I remember Thunderhead Keep when Guild Wars 1 first came out. That map was the bane of everyone’s existence.

z00s,

I feel like I’ve missed out on so many potentially great games because of this.

Played WoW on PC and encountered twinks, PvP spammers/snipers, loot ninjas etc and just had enough.

Normal person + anonymity + audience = fuckwit

Whenever I buy a game with an online component I feel like I’m just wasting half of that money.

dude, why are you paying the same game more than 1 time?

MudMan, (edited )

Yeah, for instance I played basketball once and I was done.

I was roped into playing poker twice, but I already knew the ending, so it wasn't as good the second time.

You’re being down voted but I see it.

(OP has a typo in the image that says "short but repayable game)

@edgemaster72@lemmy.world avatar

My brain autocorrected the typo in the image but I caught it before reading the comments, then it auto"corrected" the top comment to match the fix for the post, but this time I didn’t catch it til you pointed it out.

Edit: Dang it, I misread the typo too.

Duamerthrax,

Cause the game is fun and I already paid for it.

kratoz29,

Where do you play it?

NOT_RICK,
@NOT_RICK@lemmy.world avatar

I played on an iPad. It’s fun but can get frustrating at times, like most Roguelikes

Opafi,

Yeah, sunk too much time in that one.

Still, only paid it once.

I just can’t stop playing Cobalt Core. And Baldurs Gate 3 is sitting right there

See, I like the skill, physical endurance or patience to properly speedrun a game.

But I will play a game on autopilot over and over again. Call it... I don't know, speedjogging a game? Speedstrutting? Power speedwalking?

In any case, there are many situations where I will gladly play through Streets of Rage in half an hour instead of barely making it through the tutorial of whatever the current epic is. I feel at peace with that.

Godort,

This was me until I discovered randomizers. The same game you know, but things changed enough to feel fresh.

I spin up a Link to the Past rando a couple times a month because it only takes about 2 hours to finish one.

lol I’ve got like three games that I always come back to, I play other games as well but not as much

Daze, do gaming w Help

Path of Achra

The Binding of Isaac

Tiny Rogues

The Dungeon Beneath

These are my four horsemen.

I tend to fall back on games that have a setting and possibly a story, but have the main gameplay available as repetitive things to do.

Fighting games

Racing games that don’t have a defined ending

Games like Battletech 2019 which has a story mode and also a never ending campaign mode.

Open world games like Skyrim and Grand Theft Auto, but mostly side quests and doing random non-story things.

My main reluctance for playing new games is learning new mechanics and story with all the interruptions of adulthood. I keep buying them and just planning on playing them later.

I’m taking a week off work to drown myself in Forbidden West when it comes out on PC. Again.

I already did it back when it launched on PS. No regrets. So I’m doing it again.

GreenAlex, do games w I didn't read the TOS for Baldurs Gate 3 until now
@GreenAlex@kbin.social avatar

This strikes me as though the TOS existing is one of the (seemingly few) things out of their control when using the ip, but they went and made it as pro-consumer as they could.

I think this was one of the few EULAs I actually read though, mostly to see if I was going to sell my soul to them as part of it.

Did not, but was not disappointed, their lawyers definitely got to have some fun.
