Dead space? It famously has a hud that’s built into the world rather than being random bars and stuff on the screen. Everything UI related is essentially from an object in the game

Styx: Master of Shadows. Been meaning to play it for years.

On paper, I should be enjoying the fuck out of this. Stealth is my favorite genre, I enjoy fantasy, and it even reminds me a little of Thief in some aspects (mainly art design and some of the mechanics).

Yet, I’m just not enjoying it. I don’t know why. Maybe it’s the skill tree gating basic abilities like aerial/ledge kills, but I never had an issue with the skill tree or gated abilities in something like Dishonored, just as an example.

Maybe I’m finding the AI overly aggressive and hyper aware, but I rarely have that problem with most other stealth games, some of which do have acutely aware enemies who’ll spot you immediately.

Maybe it’s that it feels like there are just too many guards/enemies in each level, while also feeling cramped (like there’s oftentimes no corner you turn without a new enemy to deal with), which makes it crowded and much more difficult to navigate.

Maybe I’m just not vibing with the controls or the story or something.

I honestly don’t know. It just doesn’t feel fun for some reason, despite checking nearly all my boxes. It’s missing something that I can’t quite put my finger on.

Dying Light 1 is awesome to play HUDless, but you have to learn the controls beforehand, and you have to enable the HUD again for a certain bossfight, or just memorize the keypresses for it from a walkthrough.

Don’t think I’ve seen anyone mention sea of thieves, always loved how pretty it was and the complete like of hud is great

PolishAndrew,

There are a lot of design choices I love about that game! I’m one of those people however that found the PvP frustrating.

SeducingCamel,

That’s true it’s pretty damn tough

SkyerixBOI,

Good news! There’s a new update that included a PvE server that you and friends can play on. You’ll be the only players on the server and can play all the PvE content (minus the fort of damned/fortune)

There are a few restrictions, but if you care more about game experience, they shouldn’t affect you too much.

PolishAndrew,

Wooooo may be worth trying out!!

With this following on from WotR I thought they would have had a pretty solid game.

Has this been rushed to completion for Christmas?

I might just wait a few months and see what the patch notes look like when it’s on sale.

At this point, I think my pavlov-like reaction to Thursdays and grabbing the free games is the game now. I know full well I’ll never play these games.

rautapekoni,

319 games in my Epic library, of which I’ve bought 4 or 5. In total I’ve played maybe 20 and finished about 6. I’m sure I’ll get to it one of these days…

0x4F50,

I think the only one I’ve cracked open from Epic is Control. Awesome game I would highly recommend.

Sharpiemarker,

If that’s all you’ve played from the free Epic giveaways, you’re missing out!

Subnautica
Fallout New Vegas
Enter the Gungeon
Breathedge
Dying Light
Dishonored
Sable
Bioshock: The Collection
Borderlands 3
The vanishing of Ethan Carter
Prey
2064: Read-Only Memories (not everyone’s cup, but it’s unique and the soundtrack has some bangers)
Metro 2033/Last Light
20XX Elite Dangerous
Hitman

to name a few

0x4F50,

I’ve had less free time in the last few years than I would have liked, but you’re absolutely right. The last couple years have had some awesome titles given out for free.

Sharpiemarker,

You’ll get no judgement from me, friend. Besides, being a patient gamer means cheap or free games to play.

Overzeetop,

Yeah, it’s high on my list. Along with a half dozen other AAAs from the last decade. I think Cyberpunk is next on my list, though there’s a Fallout languishing on my Deck I keep meaning to go back to.

0x4F50,

I just picked up Cyberpunk, Jedi Survivor, and a few others on Steam’s Cyber Monday sale. Cyberpunk 2077 like playing a movie. It is incredible. I’m trying to finish up BG3 before I start into it, but it’s difficult not to

Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.

Turning off the HUD makes you look up at the environment to help you plan where to go. You start to remember landscape shapes and areas that way. Plus it’s just nice.

Your hearts and stuff will show up if they need to, but otherwise it’s totally blank. And since pulling up the map is quick it’s really not that jarring to not have it in the corner.

I’d love to but I can’t get past their bot detection system.

Excited to give Gigabash a try - the steam reviews all day it’s like a modern Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters and I loved that back in the day

At the moment, I am doing New Vegas hudless run (VNV modlist + JSUE Tweak) on my spare times. Honestly I am adore it due to the fact it feels like 3D Fallout 2 as previously I run my playthroughs using hud. However this also makes you need to be perceptive as on this tweaked game raider tends to ambush you so you kind of develop second nature of how you perceive surrounding on Mojave. Even though people may thinking hudless does not make a sense, it simply each on theit own enjoyment as you cannot please everyone with same tricks every single time.

Although not hudless, but in GTA San Andreas I can notice a landmark or a spot of the map just from a pictures. It feels like ingrained on my mind from my countless hour doing SP as kids and playing SAMP during my teenage years.

I used to play Skyrim with a mod that turned off the HUD. Can’t remember the name. I switched off extra options, and it became quite fun sneak-archering with neither crosshairs nor stealth indicator nor enemy radar dots.

Well, you mentioned Battlefield 1 already, but yes.

No HUD, good sound system, only standard issue rifles… Honestly an experience like no other.

I mention good sound because no HUD means you get a lot more focused on what you’re hearing, and the sound in this game is fantastic. So many great audio clues to work with.

PolishAndrew,

Battlefield 1 just drips with atmosphere, it’s amazing!
