EonNShadow, do gaming w it's the steam winter sales, what game did you enjoy playing and want to share?

The wife and I have really enjoyed playing Ravenswatch.

It’s an early-access rougelite that plays a bit like a Diablo/League (sans toxicity because it’s co-op, not competitive)

Farm efficiently and level your hero within the time limit and fight a boss at the end.

It’s a great time and 20% off on the sale

You should try Halls of Torment for a Diablo-looking rogue-like. I adored it!

I would kill for my son to try to get me to play ANY video game with him, let alone BG3. I started playing D&D and video games over 40 years ago. He’s lucky to have a son like you. Hope you guys can figure this out.

A few hidden gems I’ve played:

Dungeons of the Endless: store.steampowered.com/…/Dungeon_of_the_ENDLESS/

Solasta Crown of the Magister: …steampowered.com/…/Solasta_Crown_of_the_Magister…

Tower of Time: store.steampowered.com/app/617480/Tower_of_Time/

Detroit: Become Human: store.steampowered.com/…/Detroit_Become_Human/

The Dark Pictures Anthology - Man of Medan: …steampowered.com/…/The_Dark_Pictures_Anthology_M…

I hope you like them all as much as I did.

I've definitely been eyeing Solasta since BG3. Is it combat heavy enough that it could be a podcast game? It's unclear how story focused the base game is, and I get the sense that player made content is the draw.

FlashMobOfOne,
!deleted7243 avatar

There’s plenty of combat. If you’ve played BG3 I imagine you’ll enjoy it.

The caveat is that it’s made by an indie studio, so the cutscenes aren’t AAA, but I think the game is amazing regardless, and that includes the expansion packs.

mosiacmango,

Dungeons of the endless is beutiful. A unique roguelike thats more strategic than action based, but gives your choices real weight. You will have to lose people and you will make mistakes to complete the missions, but every one of them leaves you with a sense of impact.

I get the same vibes from it as FTL, the sense of weighty choices. A great buy at $2.50

There is a new “action focused” sequel to dungeon of the endless whose name i forget because its an entirely forgetable game. It fully eliminates meaningful gameplay in trade for mediocre combat. It can be skipped entirely.

FlashMobOfOne,

I think Dungeons of the Endless also has one of the best soundtracks in recent years. I like to have it on shuffle when I’m doing yoga.

l0st_scr1b3,

+1 for Solasta. I was playing it on Xbox with friends and loved it. There’s also the option for user made adventures I believe, which opens up so many possibilities.

effingnerd,

I’ve been eyeing Solasta for a while, but I’m curious, does the base game have enough meat to it, or is this a case where the base game is a bit lacking and really starts to shine in the dlc? I’ve read some reviews to this effect and would like to hear another opinion before I purchase it.

FlashMobOfOne, (edited )
!deleted7243 avatar

I loved all of it, personally. Is there anything in particular you’re looking for that I can comment on, in terms of RPG’s?

My only two complaints with Solasta was that I felt the random encounters with traveling got annoyingly frequent and the cutscenes are definitely indie, but I enjoyed the game as a whole so much I stopped caring about either.

But I can confirm that the DLC’s have a ton of meat too.

Even_Adder, do gaming w FFVII Rebirth Director Naoki Hamaguchi says that Cait Sith's name is pronounced "Cat Shee."

Too few people have heard his theme song from Mobius Final Fantasy.

Oh wow, I’ve never even heard of Mobius FF. That song bops

Even_Adder,

The rest of the soundtrack is great too, It was my favorite gacha I played, probably because it was the least exploitative gacha I’ve ever played. Sadly, it wasn’t doing too well and shut down in 2020 as development for Final Fantasy VII Remake was ramping up, and they need all hands on deck in Business Division 1.

Altomes, do gaming w it's the steam winter sales, what game did you enjoy playing and want to share?

I know this game has gotten a lot of attention but Sea of Stars was my favorite game of the year, the story and art was charming and well done, and the gameplay was great and about the perfect length IMO. Its only been out 4 months and I’m already itching to do a replay

TowardsTheFuture,

Reminds me I need to get around to playing more. Got to the like first real city and then got busy with a lot of things but it’s cool for sure.

delitomatoes,

The start is painfully slow though

Altomes,

Fair enough, I think it helped that I’d been awaiting the game for so long that I was willing to forgive a slow start

Lowbird,

I didn’t get far in it because the characters seemed very bland to me, and the story setup generic, but perhaps that could improve over time? I know some games leverage their length to pull off slow character development well, even if the basic character templates are straightforwardly tropey. But this one didn’t grab me enough at the beginning to justify investing my time in it, personally.

I’m glad it exists for the people who do like it, though!

Spirit of the North

store.steampowered.com/…/Spirit_of_the_North/

An indie adventure/exploration/puzzle game. There is no combat in this game. You explore, solve puzzles, and take in the vibes of a story told without any dialogue at all. It’s all in the visuals, music, and mood. This is Abzu with foxes.

The gameplay is fairly simple, but also pretty forgiving - there are very few places where you need fast reactions or precise timing, and if you fall off a platform you only have to redo the last few jumps, not the entire level. It’s the kind of puzzle game where you have plenty of time to think things through and even more time to just enjoy the journey. Definitely a game for the casual gamer who wants to look at pretty landscapes, listen to beautiful music, and bark at things.

If you stick exclusively to following the story, it’s maybe 2-3 hours long, and getting 100% completion on all achievements, collectibles, and alternate skins took me 16 hours. So it’s not a huge game - which means the best time to buy it is when it’s heavily discounted, like right now.

I love this game so much. I like a lot of games, but it’s rare that I absolutely adore one. In fact, I might just go and play it again tomorrow.

MJBrune,

I’ve bought this game because of you. This looks amazing, thank you for bringing it up!

frog,

No problem! I hope you enjoy it as much as I have! :)

The sequel is being released sometime next year, too. It may be the one game where I break my usual rule of not buying a new game at launch.

diviledabit, do games w Which Spider Man games to play on PS5?

There are 3 games in the insomniac series.

Spiderman

Spiderman miles morales

Spiderman 2

Play them in order to avoid spoilers.

WhyAUsername_1,

Okay superb! Spiderman it is then

WhyAUsername_1,

So this is Marvels Spiderman right? The first one?

simple,

Yes.

RampantParanoia2365,

Yes. And Miles Morales is essentially an expansion dlc that ended up as it’s own title. It is really good, but it’s not as long as 1 and 2. So play 1, then the actual expansions for 1, then MM, then 2.

wccrawford, do gaming w Anybody know of games similar to Dito Seregin's 'Escape Pod'?

They both seem somewhat similar to the old Lunar Lander game. That might help you find more clones?

!deleted269 avatar

Obejrzałem sobie część wczorajszych i nieźle to wygląda, chociaż zabrakło omówienia kwestionowanej legalności przejęcia. Za to mam wrażenie, że trochę amatorskie wykonanie i umiarkowany ton mają szanse wywrzeć dobre wrażenie a przy głównej publice TVP1.
Myślę, że prowadzenie newsów w możliwie niesensacyjnym tonie mogłoby być wręcz bardzo skuteczną strategią długoterminową. Na tym jechało latami Radio Maryja, “jest spokojne i miłe” - co prawda sączyło jad, ale w uprzejmy sposób. Tu, gdyby program informacyjny był po prostu typ - bez żadnych atrakcji, spokojnie i konkretnie podaną informacją, to mogło by to być w dzisiejszych czasach całkiem atrakcyjne, nie tylko dla starszych. W drugą stronę konkurencja jest nie do wygrania.

Warframe is very gender. You play as a biomechanical super ninja slaughtering capitalists, monarchists, noncon hiveminds, and genocidalists. Also there are spoiler things that make it the transest game I’ve ever played

rubythulhu, do games w Which Spider Man games to play on PS5?

ALL.

WhyAUsername_1,

Haha yes that’s the goal. Wanted to understand which games are there in the series.

burnso, do games w Which Spider Man games to play on PS5?

Yeah these games are quite story heavy so don’t start with Miles, play them in order.

Also, there’s only 3 games in the current series to my knowledge.

WhyAUsername_1,

Yes. I guess I got confused for some reason, which now i realised was dumb on my part.

burnso,

I imagine there might be quite a few available on the PS store so don’t worry about it.

Enjoy! I’ve only played the first one but I enjoyed it enough to 100% it twice.

risk of rain 2, game is sooo good just pickes up the dlc survivors of the void and it adds so much new stuff, def recommend if you like third person shooters and rougelites, it’s quite hard tooo which makes wining all that more satisfying as well as endless mode as an option
