This Valiant Hearts is very emotional but very good. …steampowered.com/…/Valiant_Hearts_The_Great_War_…

Katana314,

It’s hard to tell which extreme is going to surprise people first with Valiant Hearts.

Like, it’s a WW1 game so of course you’re expecting it to be brutal. Then, it’s cute to have so many stories of soldiers not based around killing people - just adventure, puzzle-solving, making friends across country lines, as well as the heartfelt letters written.

Then it gets to Chemin des Dames, and holy shit, not even the most brutal shooters evoke the unfathomable amounts of death happening in those meat grinders. Neither element would’ve hit so hard without the other giving you that kind of whiplash.

Minecraft: Super chill sandbox building game, but when you are lost 150 blocks deep in the mines, just found your first diamonds in the dark after you ran out of torches and you hear that hissing sound just behind you…

I don’t know about mastering both, but Project Zomboid maybe?

It can be somewhat chill and even relaxing occasionally, but when it makes you anxious it makes you ANXIOUS (and queasy, eventually).

Mother 3. "No crying until the end."

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 became my favourite entry in the series because of how it still has light, silly moments, improbable vistas and absurd world building, but when it tries for dark, it hits hard (and to be honest it’s generally a good deal darker than the other games even from the beginning).

Previous episodes had their emotional moments, but nothing comes close to one particular scene in 3.

Red Dead Redemption II. The writing is absolutely fantastic and goes across the stream of emotions.

Red dead is the only game I’ve laughed out loud and literally cried at the screen. It’s a masterpiece.

If you’re able to get a good internet connection, you could run anything on Geforce Now’s list. Not the most optimal gaming experience, but it can be satisfying enough.

To give something more specific I enjoy, try Backpack Hero. It’s a roguelike on the easier side, built around making absurd combos.

lost_faith,

I think let’s game it out did one of his satisfactory abominations on gforce now, seemed pretty good from the video (could have been someone else like imkibitz/kibitz but iirc it was lgio)

Probably 90% of games that are 10+ years old will be playable.

For example search for “metacritic pc games 2013” etc and change the year.

Emulators for any game console from before the 3D era. NES, SNES, and Sega Genesis would all be good candidates. You’ll have a ton of good games you can play any time.

I have been pausing NMS for a few months. I think I’ll start playing again next week, a bit curious about this corvette thing.
