Huge +1 recommendation for Manic Miners. Functionally a 1:1 remake with everything you could ask for and more- lots of settings, remastered levels, and a level builder. The (solo) dev got hired by Lego’s video game division afterwards

whenever i find a game that i actually want to keep playing i give a quick prayer to the gods, thanking them for their mercy

go figure that game was The Long Dark this time, only thing more violently autistic than a realistic canadian survival game would be a railway planning ga- sigh

Disclosure: That’s my baby. We’re not very active any more and while we were self hosted for a decade the development shifted to GitHub recently: github.com/maxr-dot-org/maxr/releases (I know but I don’t have the spoons for this any more so the active devs got to decide)

OTINOKTYAH,

that’s awesome! I only played m.a.x. 2 in my childhood but i’ll take a look on that. Can i add it to the list?

It’s FOSS, of course you can 🤓 Fun fact: Most MAX players hate MAX2 to this day. The disappointment is similar to studios getting bought up by EA.

This is great, thank you so much. Saved so I can add something if I come across anything you hadn’t covered yet.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I have some gaming to do!

OTINOKTYAH,

Have fun :) and Tell me, If you run into troubles or else, so if it’s not working i’ll add this to the list. What game you are starting?

@Kory@lemmy.ml avatar

I’ll sure try Diablo, I totally forgot about that. Having played Diablo 2 Resurrected recently, that fits. Also want to try that Lego game, never heard about it, but it looks fun. And maybe some Icewind Dale, but not sure how that holds up :)

Fools Rush In appears to be a fannish remake of the PC-98-only versus STG Touhou Yumeijikū ~ Phantasmagoria of Dim. Dream, for modern computer systems, released around 2017, though it's a bit jank on the gameplay side of things. Caught wind of it from a couple Jaimers vids on this a while back.

MajesticElevator, do games w Games have to cost $80! Meanwhile focus £35 oh sure have the DLC for £1 you have the other game

Btw why are we getting more expensive games in EUR and GBP while USA pays less than us? Aren’t they supposed to have the bigger salaries?

Their sticker price doesn’t have tax, ours has the insane VAT rates already included. That doesn’t help. We still get shafted for a lot of consumer goods.

MajesticElevator,

Okay, makes sense, but even then I feel like we pay too much 😵

It been quite some time since I haven’t spent more than 30€ for a game

lobut, do games w I'm genuinely sad about the Marathon situation

I dunno, I heard about the history of Bungie and what Pete Parsons did to the company. There should be no surprise. He destroyed it and Marathon is just another indicator it seems.

I feel bad for the artist and hope they get more than just “exposure” after this.

Eh, I’m not to beaten up about it. It kind looks like any of the good talent at Bungie is long gone and they’re just outsourcing a lot of work. It kinda feels like they crapped this out under pressure from Sony.

Just go play the classic Marathon 1 and 2, they’re great and you get to see the magic of looking up or down in an FPS for the first time.

Embark is working wonders through The Finals. I came from Destiny 2 and am so glad to have devs that listen to their entire community and put so much effort into their game.

I am excited to see what they do with Arc Raiders!

I’m looking at the picture, and I have no idea what the hell you’re talking about. There’s no $80 or $1 in this image.

@DampCanary@lemmy.world avatar

I think $80 comes from:
Borderlands
and £1 comes from difference £35.99 - £34.99

but yes I agree with you they were not clear

echodot,

They are pointing out that there’s loads of good games on Steam that don’t cost $80, given the prevalence of such good games there really isn’t justification for that price point.

The picture shows that a game that is yet to be released (I actually thought it was already out but apparently not) is only £35 ($45) If you want the bundle which gives you two games it’s only an extra £1

Personally I’m not that interested in snow runners it just seems like an infuriating game, but the fact that you can get it for virtually nothing is interesting.

smeg, do games w Interview: My Q&A with Gardiner Bryant

I clicked on this because I’ve enjoyed your previous articles, despite not having heard of Gardiner before. Maybe it’s just the kind interests we Lemmy users have, but he’s ticking every box for the kind of thing I like to read!

PerfectDark,
@PerfectDark@lemmy.world avatar

I’m so glad you enjoyed it!

And even more so that you’d trust it would be worth a read purely because my other posts have been a nice read! That is so nice to read - thank you!

I find I check in with Gardiner’s blog each day now, I love clean and ‘pure’ sites and articles where the intention isn’t affiliate links or ads, or begging for new Patreon supporters…just the topic at hand!

Again, thank you so much :)

smeg,

Thank you for doing the hard work!
