Inscryption > monster train by a wide margin. Go into it as blind as possible. Don’t look anything up. It’s the most memorable deck builder that I’ve ever played. I wish I could erase the game from my mind so that I could experience all over again.
Monster train was fun but I felt like there were runs that were pretty much unwinnable from the start due to RNG. Unlike Slay the Spire, some of the classes just didn’t feel viable. I only played it with the DLC enabled so I’m not entirely certain how the base game felt.
TL;DR there’s absolutely no situation where I would ever pick Monster Train over Inscryption
Monster train is very good. It’s probably a bit easier than others in the genre. It’s more about how many modifiers you use to make the game more difficult than simply finishing. You can generally always beat the game on any given run, you aren’t as dependent on getting the exact right cards or unlocking more powerful cards.
I can’t speak too much to the dlc, I don’t have a ton of experience with it, but my friend has literally unlocked and completed everything and still enjoys the game.
Honestly, you’d probably like a reasonable chunk of other RE games for the reasons you listed. Several of them also have randomizer mods if you’re playing on PC, which can change the locations of item spawns, enemies, and even what room is on the other side of the door (for the older games) so you really have no idea what’s around the next corner.
4, 5, and 6 are more linear, but 4 and 5 are great for inventory and economy management (with the caveat that you should play 5 in co-op) and 6 is definitely a skip. 0, 1, 3, Code Veronica, and Village are all recommendations from me, though RE2 is one of the most beloved games in the franchise for a reason.
I’ve never played monster train, but inscription has a little more going on than just a roguelite. I don’t want to spoil anything, but depending on if that sounds interesting to you, that may be the answer to your question.
Rogue Legacy 2, Elder Scrolls Online, and I recently found out about this procedurally generated BMX game called Descenders that's kinda tough but fun.
Its a mix of CS:GO, The Long Dark and Assetto Corsa for me lately.
I just got the Project Rome mod for Battlefield: Bad Company 2 so I’ve been playing that quite a bit as well! To any BC2 fans out there, make sure you get Project Rome and start playing again! It’s just as fun as it’s ever been.
I wish we could get Steam Link on Xbox. That’d be the ideal solution for me since I’ve got the controller already setup. The Shield is probably a decent solution, but it’s an extra device in the chain.
Cyberpunk 2077. I was pretty skeptical of it before it came out (didn’t really feel like it was doing anything unique), but it was such a big release I picked it up to have an opinion on it.
Don’t think I’m gonna do the same for Starfield, though, that’s just a pass
I think for me it’s going to end up depending on the modding community and how linear the game feels.
I played The Outer Worlds due to the hype around Obsidian releasing a game but it just felt kind of flat and lifeless. Maybe it’s just because it seems similar in atmosphere but I’m worried Starfield is going to end up feeling the same.
Even though I agree for the most part about Cyberpunk,I did finish it ,but skipped parts of story by doing the worse ending. I intend to start a new game after Phantom Liberty dlc comes out just cause I’m curious about the improvements.
Starfield… Now I never liked Bethesda games and could never finish most. I did finish FO4,but was very very bored by the end and rushed it. Starfield is just so bland and has so many mixed ideas and mechanics from other games it just feels like it can’t make up its mind what it wants to be. And the combat… Cyberpunk feels like a combat masterpiece compared to Starfield and Star Citizen the same (despite all issues) for the space part. Starfield just can’t draw me in.
Working my way through completely exploring the entire world of Assassin's Creed Odyssey. I really love this game, but goddamn is it enormous. I'm about 75% in.
And just picked up the switch port of Red Dead Redemption. Really glad to be able to play this one without dragging out the 360. Still an awesome game, and a damn good port.
