The Ascent.

Bit of diablo, bit of Borderlands; good game but lacks variety and also has some insane jumps in the difficulty. Playing on Normal is hard enough with no extra payout. Hard is impossible unless you are absolutely perfect in execution. Might as well put it on Easy and just have fun endlessly blasting punks, mutants and machines because when you start dying in the first 2 seconds of every boss fight, it stops being fun.

SuperSaiyanSwag,

There are a lot of indie games that suffer from this imo. Might be because they don’t have enough testers.

Yeah. It’s a bit amateurish, but it’s a cheap game too. They clearly spent a lot more time on the writing and visuals but really my only heavy criticism is that there isn’t enough variety in how you play. There’s basically just 1 build and 1 set of viable weapons. But if you just wanna turn your brain off and blow things up, it’s an awesome game.

Dwarf Fortress! Turn off attacks and sieges and just let your dwarves die by your own incompetence instead

Templa,

Usually the issue isn’t my incompetence, people just get too drunk in the tavern and decide to kill each other. FUN.

I just wall myself up inside with a gate and wait out the sieges. I also place two dogs outside the main entrance to catch kidnappers. Has the same effect without needing to mod the game or alter the settings.

Of course once I can build ballastas or make use of water/lava, I can set up winding paths with Dwarven Shotguns (basically using water pressure and garbage I can fire minecarts full of crap at high speeds) to obliterate trespassers.

lemmur,

Moment, to raportowanie idzie do modów szmeru a nie lemmy.ml?

rysiek,

O ile dobrze rozumiem, to podobnie jak na reszcie fedi: raport idzie do lokalnych modów. To miałoby najwięcej sensu: modzi na zdalnej instancji mogą mieć to w nosie, instancja może mieć inne zasady, itp. Lokalne mody rozumieją lokalną społeczność i jej potrzeby.

Nie wiem, czy Lemmy ma opcje przesyłania do modów instancji domowej raportowanego konta.

Anything where you’re more interested in the story than the challenge.

So… story-driven games.

Omegamanthethird,

I wonder what game stories benefit from a bit of challenge.

Like, I feel like The Last of Us benefits from a little bit of challenge to drive home the anxiety and cleverness of the characters.

NieR Automata, for basically the same reasons. Hard mode is filled with instakills everywhere and is really just a damage multiplier, so you have to be the right kind of person for that. If you're not, Normal is probably already fairly easy because of all the auto-heals, but the pacing can be a bit slow for something where most enemies aren't dangerous. Might as well play Easy and play for the story.

Omegamanthethird,

I love the combat in the game. I think I played it on normal. I wouldn’t recommend anything easier. I feel like everything would die too easily.

rand_alpha19, do gaming w What games would you recommend others to just play on easy difficulty

I would recommend Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning. The normal mode is already stupid easy, so you feel like a god on easy mode.

It's a fantasy setting with a ton of story and lore, so if you don't care about that it may not be for you.

SuperSaiyanSwag,

I like this answer, sometimes I just want to feel like a god in an rpg, but most of the time enemies scale with you in most games

DdCno1,

Does the writing ever get good? I played it for probably six or eight hours, which isn’t a lot in a game like this, but it and the world building felt painfully generic and bland, to the point of being increasingly off-putting the longer I played the game.

rand_alpha19,

It's pretty generic overall, but some parts of the worldbuilding are better than others. It fits together in fun ways, and the later stuff is better, but most of the early-game stuff is bland. Just FYI - I never beat it, but I played about 40 hours in 2015 and right now I'm about 10 hours into a replay.

I don't know if it's just because of the time since I've last played, but Re-Reckoning has felt like a lot more of a chore to play than the original. I don't remember absolutely loving the original, though; it was always pretty mid, I just thought it was charming.

fushuan,

I’ve beaten the original and the rerelease several times. it’s pretty generic but the combat animations are cool enough to give it a go when I’m bored. I usually play it on the hardest difficulty but the bow charged spread attack works like a shotgun so it’s very easy to stunlock enemies.

It’s one of those games where you can overpower enemies quite easily if you prepare, I would not play it on easy though, if the story is bland and the combat is braindead, what’s the point of the game?

FTL. At least until you’ve beaten the game several times

SuperSaiyanSwag,

This is such a good answer. I remember playing it on easy back in the day and the final boss still kicked my ass.

smeg,

I remember having some really solid runs, easily beating every enemy I encountered… and then not even being able to make a dent on the final boss

RisingSwell,

I spend the entire game prepping for the boss. Just because I can ohko every other ship the moment I land doesn’t mean I can touch the beast. I’ve done the last sector without taking a hit just to never even get past the shields in phase 1

smeg,

Yep, that’s what everyone realises after getting stomped a few times!

ahal,

I think that’s my main complaint with the game. Once you find a way to beat the boss, you just go for that build every time. It’s so punishing and the path to get there is so long, that it’s a massive disincentive to try new things.

all-knight-party,
@all-knight-party@fedia.io avatar

That's a good example. You simply can't grasp optimal choices or know possible events and outcomes before going through it a great deal of times, and it's likely that you'll get killed too fast to experience much if you start on normal. You definitely end up switching to normal as you improve, learn, and unlock, but it really benefits and smoothens the learning curve to start easier.

smeg,

Into the Breach too, it’s just a less brutal way to learn how to play

DdCno1,

And once the game has become a breeze, with 100% of your runs being a success, install the Captain’s Edition mod and suddenly, it’s a pleasantly challenging title again. The add-on that turns it into an endless game in particular is so good, I spent dozens of hours playing it.

@henfredemars@infosec.pub avatar

Shoutout to Twinge’s Balance Mod. It’s actively maintained, and it makes the game more interesting by encouraging use of unpopular weapons and systems

Captain’s is great too, but it can be overwhelming.

DdCno1,

Thanks for the recommendation!

The difficult steps in FTL are no joke. I was having no difficulty clearing on easy and was just trying to unlock all the ships. Once I did I switched to normal and had to restart 3 times before getting out of the first sector.

Abnorc, do gaming w What games would you recommend others to just play on easy difficulty

Maybe it’s a skill issue, but this game was Star Wars Jedi Knight 2 for me. I think I played it on the second easiest difficulty. On higher difficulties, the enemies move much faster and do more damage, and you start to realize how inaccurate the guns are. On top of that, the weapons are projectile weapons, so you’re aiming inaccurate and slow projectiles at stormtroopers shuffling left and right rapidly. I think it’s much more fun to just play on the first or second difficulty.

No ogólnie lemmy[.]ml jest bardzo “czołgistową” instancją i nic z tym nie zrobisz, poza ew blokowaniem czy defederacją swojej instancji od nich jakbyś chciał.

lemmur,

Wolę spolszczenie “Tankietkową”, bardziej pasuje

lysy,

O, to ta instancja, która mnie dwa razy zbanowała, bo śmiałem niebronić rosyjskiego punktu widzenia na inwazję rosyjską na Ukrainę. Blokować, jeńców nie brać :P

Maalus, do zapytajszmer w Zgłaszanie użytkowników na instancji lemmy.ml

Lemmy.ml to bagno, najlepiej zablokowac cala instancje i miec spokoj. To czy dostaniesz tam bana czy nie absolutnie nic nie zmieni - o ile nie chcesz wrzucac dokladnie tego samego co oni. Nie ma po co sie wkurwiac, zdania im nie zmienisz a przez monitor w morde tez nie dasz.
