This is beautiful!!!

Is the game good?

mint_tamas,

If you like the genre, it is very good. I’d go as far as saying it’s really special. For me, it’s very comforting and just plain good vibes. Fantastic pixelart and tasteful, sensible improvements on the format.

Yes I would really love an old style game with QoL improvements that the modern era had bought for us like better controls, auto-saves, skip dialogue, etc.

It’s shockingly become one of my favourite RPGs and that’s saying a lot. The story is quite original with a few really good twists but the characters are also all excellent.

Soundtrack is most excellent.

High praise! I’ll be looking forward to trying this out then

DeriHunter,

I really liked the first 10 hours,but then it became really repetitive. I couldn’t bring myself to finish it. Maybe it’s just me though

Maybe the charm got old. You could play it in-between big games

Skies of Arcadia

Only my favourite game of all time.

Sega adding it as a track to Sonic All-Stars racing to tease me, and not making a sequel after all these years makes me sad.

Grandia II

TowardsTheFuture,

Wow no one said seaman or phantasy star online.

+1 on skies of Arcadia, Grandia II, Chuchu Rocket, Powerstone, and Jet Set Radio.

I just picked up Sea of Stars earlier today - i’m about a hour in and enjoying myself so far, no complaints. Otherwise, I picked up Pokemon Go in the past week & i’m really enjoying it. It turns out that a lot of my friends are still playing, and the Pokemon Go Plus+ I use for sleep tracking also gets bonuses in Pokemon Sleep if you use it for Go. Now i’m playing both!

I’ve been talking to anyone who would listen about Your Spider. This is possibly my all time favorite indie horror game, and the fact that it only has three reviews feels like an injustice to me.

Playing BG3 with my gf. We’re having a blast.

Alone I’m playing Motorsport Manager. And old game and nothing like football manager that I played a lot in the past. It’s not great, it’s basic and I know I will only do a couple of seasons but it has been keeping me up at night and going to bed late so that counts as something. I’m definitely having fun and it’s a chill game.

A couple of months ago I was playing RDR2 but I stopped about halfway and haven’t gone back to it. The game is ridiculously good looking and the world is great but honestly the gameplay is such a slog. Most quests are basic af. I wonder how it got this much praise tbh

I was playing BG3, but I randomly jumped into X-Plane 12 and now have the flight sim bug. Once you learn how to do things it’s quite relaxing just picking some random locations and doing some flights in a nice plane model.

I’m stuck in a loop of League Of Legends and Escape from Tarkov. I hate myself for it but they are both so addicting I always want more.

I haven’t had a ton of time for gaming lately, but I did get in a quick session of Lords Of The Realm II.

This is my comfort food of games.

Final Fantasy 7 OG with HD textures and Echo-S mod (full voice acting).

It is a much better game than the so-called remake.

Severed_Fate,

Why do you feel the remake is bad

cloudless,
@cloudless@feddit.uk avatar

I don’t think the remake is a bad game, but I enjoy the original better because:

  • I prefer the original ATB combat better than the remake’s action hybrid
  • The original has much better pacing, the remake has a lot of padding
  • The original feels more open for exploration, while the remake feels very linear
  • The remake added some nonsensical story
caseofthematts,

I feel like what they did to FF7 is what they’d do if they ever remade Chrono Trigger, and that’s why I’m pretty against a remake of that one.

cloudless,
@cloudless@feddit.uk avatar

I am hoping that the Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D remake will sell well, so Square-Enix will remake Chrono Trigger in the same style.

caseofthematts,

That’s one of the few HD2D that looks good to me. In my opinion, Octopath is way too dark, sepia toned, and saturated. It’s not a very pretty game in my eyes. In Star Ocean and Live A Live, the characters don’t look like they fit in the world; the difference between the 3D environments and the pixel characters is too stark. But I’m quite interested in DQ3.

Annoyed_Crabby, do games w The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion - 04-09-2023

I’m still playing Project Zomboid at the moment, it’s very intriguing when you make the zombie slower and more fragile, but double their population. 1v10 is doable this way, but a missed swing still mean death lol.

Chee_Koala,

I did 2 survival runs in the last year, both near Rosewood, I had never been and it was nice to have a change of scenery. Can’t wait for the next big update, I’ll be back for another run for sure! We used these settings on our dedicated server:

  • 1200% reading speed
  • 250% XP
  • Higher Weapon spawn
  • Lower Generator fuel consumption
  • Cars have a higher change to have a little gas in them
  • There is less food loot to balance the above out
Annoyed_Crabby,

Rosewood is nice, there’s a very easily defensible place i can hole up, a bit out of the town center so it doesn’t have high concentration of zombies, and near a police and fire station so weapon(fire axe, gun) is easy to come by.

Though the helicopter event will make you get trapped inside a place you can’t escape lol.

NickNak, do games w The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion - 04-09-2023

I’ve been giving Blood a go, I missed out on a lot of shooters back in the day so when I play them now you can see how many modern games were inspiresd by these old giants, it’s also really obvious why people love this game and have used it for inspiration

Chee_Koala,

Very cool! Check out F.E.A.R.! Cool level design, story, pretty decent AI. Old but gold. Also scary ;-)

NickNak,

I have played Fear! I think I’ve played both 1 and 2, they were great run and gun games

PixelOfLife, do games w Anyone remember Xfire?

Oh, I remember. Some of the games I played a lot would just crash if I had Xfire running in the background.

Dwarf Fortress and Cataclysm: DDA generate some crazy plotlines, full of narrative, twists, and character development. How come no writer has converted a character’s story into a novel, yet?
