Atari Warlords. After seeing it in the local convenience store, I raced home on my bike to describe what I’d seen to my incredulous mother. She took me back and let me play twice. The obsession took root right at that moment.
Then later, Section Z in the arcades - It was the game that made me ponder how games were actually made. I imagined a person sitting with a microphone patched into the back of the arcade cabinet: “Ok I want a little red guy with a gun and he runs sideways…”
Cyberpunk 2077. (At first I was thinking CoD but I’m no multiplayer player) There’s no new mechanics, if you know the source material there’s also nothing new. Dialogues are so so and the expansion story line is awful.
In my opinion it’s a basic game with a new gen console veneer, anyway I’ve played the story 2 times
Cyberpunk have clear gamification mechanics in it but that’s not the point.
Fast food food are easy to digest with low effort production, Cyberpunk don’t try to incentivize something new, it used mechanics that we have seen a hundred of times and clear story beats for all its plot points.
Don’t get me wrong, you’re allowed to have fun with it but there’s nothing new in there
Nier: Automata, like the final ending. I’ve 100% this game three times and each time I end tearing up, thinking about a world where would could all come together and help eachother, then I look at the news and that dream is immediately shattered.
still d&d dark alliance because I have been playing a few mins at a time. I really need to play the witcher but it can lock you into getting to a point that is not clear where it is or waste time redoing.
Mine is Cosmic Fantasy 2, for the TurboGrafx-16 CD System, was a game that I was given when I was not even a teenager yet, and I beat that without any guides, without any walkthroughs, without any support, and nobody helped me.
I believe it was the first game that I beat on my own.
I tried replaying it for nostalgia’s sake, and the interface is so clunky and bad.
It uses a static card system for the enemies, nobody moves, the pacing is very slow, battles are frequent and pretty grueling, but I still remember the music, and I remember that it was the first game I ever played that had full motion video in it, even though it was anime full motion video, and the story was actually fantastic.
I honestly wish they would reboot this game or remake this game. There’s like an entire Cosmic Fantasy series of role-playing games that were huge, like in the 90s, I guess, early 2000s, something, and they just freaking disappeared. And in English translation, we only got Cosmic Fantasy 2.
There’s a lot of good story to mine, and the best part is it’s a crossover where, like, some worlds have magic and some worlds have technology and people go back and forth between them and there’s all sorts of different interesting creatures and stories that each world is experiencing.
There’s a number of the games that notably effected me after completion. Star Fox (SNES), Halo: Combat Evolved, Morrowind, KOTOR 1&2, Halo 3, Call of Duty 4, Bioshock, Dead Space, Hotline Miami, Undertale.
Its one of the other things i use to relax after Silk Song and i find it really interesting. Its not a clone of mario kart in that each car legit feels like it drives differently. And you have to play smart but can also play wildly because of the insane items and shortcuts.
I think it reminds me of Gran Turismo but with mario kart items. And Sonic music. I dont know if i just wanted something different and i am giving it more credit.
Played it as I was coming into adult life. This was my first roguelite. It sounds dumb…but it really stuck with me as a life lesson:
You can try your best and make sacrifices, and still end up unlucky with poor rewards. You get the opportunities you get, but even in this seeming randomness, you make choices to make the most of them. Training and skill makes up for some of the poor opportunities. Life is a roguelite.
Now I’ve got BoI on my Retroid Pocket 5 now. Still playing it.
