I don’t get hyped for games anymore. I’m too old, I’ve seen too much and been disappointed too often. But did you just fucking seen that sheeeeeeeeeeeet!!!

I’ve had my best video game experience since a long time with Arc Raiders. An extraction shooter with interesting players interactions.

Yes! Just hit 100 hours and still on occasion get demolished spectacularly by Arc, let alone other raiders, lol.

Check out Absolum on Steam. Game of the year for me :)

Weebdeluxe,

Thanks, I’ll have a look!

SteleTrovilo,

You want Absolum. It’s made by the same people who made SoR4, and it is excellent.

MilliaStrange,

Absolum made me beat em up pilled. I crave post game. I’m playing Code of Princess and Streets of Rage 4 now to cope.

I specialize in finding obscure good games.

Alice’s World - Mix between Doki Doki Literature Club and an adventure game.

Astro Colony - Satisfactory in space.

Days Without Incident - Fun small game made by the same guys who made Nightmare House 2.

I also recommend keeping an eye on Fractured Blooms, The Oversight Bureau, Cycle of Struggle Ardengrad, and Advent Dawn. They’re only demos at the moment though.

LaserTurboShark69,

Nice list!

Fyi your Days Without Incident link goes to Astro Colony

I_Jedi,

Sorry about that. Fixed.

Thanks for doing this!

I like exploration games without a super difficult combat system. I also love puzzle games and farming sims!

Happy holidays!

thesaddreamer,

I got Mask of Mists, and it looks amazing! I’m excited to try it.

This is an amazing offer.

I’d take you up on it, but I already have thousands of games in my backlog, so it’d be a waste of a key. But I wanted to let you know I appreciate you doing this for the community!

cerebralhawks, do games w What are some good games to play while sick?

When I’m sick I often get nauseated, almost like vertigo. So my answer is none of them.

If I’m not nauseated, any of them. I play a lot of low-impact, easy games. Animal Crossing on the Switch is both of those, until you see a knee-high tarantula! (They are in the game and are big because they’re not to scale, like most of the bugs. They run away from you though… unless you have a net out, in which case they will attack! You can’t die in AC though, they just knock you out and you wake up in front of your house, no harm no foul.)

I play Blue Prince on Mac and on Xbox (it’s also on PlayStation and PC). It’s a puzzle game, kind of a deck-building (but not really) building game (also not really). It’s pretty unique. I absolutely suck at it, but I like taking a run every other day or so. It’s fun to fail at. You have to get to the 46th room of a house, but its 9x5 grid resets every day, and as you come to a door, you choose the room to “build” (or blueprint, the name is a pun) and when you run out of moves, you call it a day and try again the next (in-game) day. It’s weird but it’s pretty chill. There’s one scene where you think there will be a jump scare, but it never happens (entering the Security Room).

Hello, honestly I’ve been in a gaming rut. I’ve been playing Halo MCC with one friend group, and Peak with the other. I’ll take any shooter, open world game, or friend slop multiplayer game.

Edit: I got Prey! It’s actually one I had on my wishlist and was hoping it would be on a deep discount for the winter sale. Thanks again for the giveaway!

Nah the best bug was cats dying of alcohol poisoning because they’d walk through the tavern, get booze spilled on them, and then lick it off themselves when cleaning. Since they weren’t programmed to drink booze directly, they had 0 tolerance for it and would easily die from it.

RichardDegenne,

Nonono, alcohol tolerance is a function of the creature’s weight, and it works perfectly.

The problem was the amount of alcohol that would get transferred on their paws when walking on spilled booze. If the alcohol was spilled from a mug, then the game would place the equivalent of a full mug of booze on each paw, which would then be ingested when the cat cleaned them.

Four full mugs of beer would be more than enough to waste anything the size of a cat.

Xenny,

Thank you for posting this correction. I was about to do it but you have saved me the trouble. Here have one of these Lemmy arrows

Smokeless7048,

My favorite was groundhogs biteing with their faces. Not their mouthes, their entire faces.

They would bite a lion I’m half.

I’m going from memory, and can’t find a link.

rumba,

Jesus, I need to read that source code.

Kolanaki,

You and me both. I want to mod shit into the game that can’t be done through the RAWs. 😩

The kicker is, everything you mentioned is intended behavior.

  • animals wander around (maybe implemented just to make things more lively)
  • creatures get splattered with whatever liquids are splashing around (perhaps initially implemented to have dwarfs get splattered with blood on a kill or to have things gradually get wet close to a waterfall)
  • animals clean themselves, licking off whatever dirt there is

All these mechanics just naturally interact, by virtue of being implemented in a generic way, which allows for this amazing emergent behavior.
IIRC the bug was that the amount of booze ingested by the cats during cleaning wasn’t scaled correctly to how much splatter they received or should’ve. Either way they ended up with excessive amounts of alcohol and overdosed immediately.

This was me with Horizon Zero Dawn. I finished my first playthrough without ever fast traveling. Then after the credits rolled I spammed it.
No ragrets. Was fun.

MentalEdge,
@MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz avatar

Same.

But that’s why good fast travel is important. Once you’ve seen the world, you can skip the stuff you’ve already done.

dalekcaan,

But even more important is a world you want to see so you don’t want to fast travel at first.

Looking at you, Starfield.

MentalEdge,
@MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz avatar

And if you do have a shitty world, make sure the fast travel is actually fast.

Looking at you, Starfield.

I’ve been hooked on Dragon’s Dogma 2 for a bit now.

I haven’t even used a fast-travel item because world traversal and exploration is so much fun. It’s a game that actually uses it’s open world as something other than an overworld to move to the next quest.
