I always adopted these two before modding the game. Now, they have 4 other brothers and sisters, sleeping in a big room in Whiterun. They play endlessly under the watch of my wife (90% of the time, Ysolda), my housecarl and the dog from the dawnguard.
I’m slowly replaying the old homeworld games in advance of homeworld 3 coming out soon. I’m still on the first one and it holds up very well. Bit disconcerting to see it’s a quarter of a century old now.
No, but TBH I haven’t really looked yet, I’m still working my way through the campaign. I’m told that the mods are still out there somewhere so I’d guess the expansion is too. I’m also told there’s also a community developed game that’s pretty complex - but again, I’ve not checked it out, my screen time is pretty limited these days.
Finally got bit by Slay the Spire. Definitely see why my buddy was tossing hella hours on it. Always enjoyed rogues and deck builders so I’m not sure why I was slow to hop on.
Cleared the first 3 heros, just trying to get the hang of the 4th now so I can get all runs cleared once. Biggest issue is my impatience – always notice a better combo after I finish the turn!
Back to Yakuza: Like A Dragon after a week of playing steam demos from the Next Fest. I was surprised at just how many I ended up enjoying. Crypt Custodian is a neat little metroidvania about a cat sentenced to be the underworld's janitor. Nice art style, sense of humor, and good puzzles. Cryptmaster is a typing-based dungeon crawler where every enemy you defeat gives you letters that you use to spell out the names of the skills you use in combat. It's certainly an inventive take and I'm looking forward to the release. Surprisingly, my favorite demo ended up being for a platformer called Happy! the Hippo. It's based on janky PS2-era platformers like Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly. The game is purpose built for you to pull off those kind of tricks where you skip chunks of the level or even break outside the bounds of the game entirely. It's really fun to play, but what I'm really enjoying about the game is the weird, almost horror game stuff that shows up the longer you play. It feels like an ARG game in a way, like Crow 64 if anyone remembers that. Or something like Shipwreck 64, a game that is a platformer on the surface but is actually a horror game once you get in far enough. Except Happy! the Hippo never turns into a horror game. At least not in the demo. There's plenty of strange stuff the more you explore, but it never descends into an outright horror game. It feels like all the talk about how old 3D platformers could be unsettling and odd was a major inspiration for the game. Hoping the finished the game keeps that tone when it releases.
I just got into Yakuza: Like a Dragon after getting interested on Infinite Wealth. Ichiban is so funny, he definitely has a very different attitude than Kiryu.
These Steam Next Fest Games sound interesting, I’ll take a look on them. Happy! the Hippo saying it’s “a previously lost game” definitely sounds like they will lean to the creepy side, but hopefully it will be better than Shipwrecked 64, which I felt like overused keypad puzzles.
Not OP, but Dark Souls 1 is probably the purest Souls experience: Slower and punishes impatience like no other. Depending on how much time you wanna spend reading item descriptions, you‘ll probably need to google things for a few gimmick areas/bosses. I like it more than 3 since it‘s not as influenced by Bloodborne yet thematically and in gameplay; it‘s closer to Demon Souls. It also has the most vertical world, which is such a unique experience. A must play for any Soulsborne fan.
It feels less polished than the other games, and there’s a bit more bullshit (ie. Boss move with funky timing, or being mobbed my enemies) but it has a lot of charm, a very well done interconnected world, and a story that oddly makes more sense to me than the other games. For the combat, I agree with the other reply
I can definitely excuse some lack of polish and bullshit. Curious to see if the story is easier to follow – usually need to watch those vaatividya clips for the lore breakdown
Whilr there’s a lack of polish and some bullshit, Its really not that bad, and the story I actually pretty straightforward, you still need to watch lore videos to deeply get it, but the general story (who you are and where youre going) is pretty straightforward.
Finished RE2rRE3r this weekend and started playing Alan wake 2 so far pretty good I like the atmosphere. I’m not sure if I should play control first but liking Alan wake so far.
Shadow of the Colossus. The urge just hit me and I am just knocking out 3 or 4 Colossus a day. Enjoying exploring and seeing the world in hdr cause I only remember the ps3 hd remake. The ps4 hdr remake is jaw droppingly stunning to look at.
Not exactly. The marriage faction was kind of buggy on launch and Lydia was somehow both in the faction and not in the faction. Wiki says it was fixed in patch 1.5.24.
