Hollow Knight. I watched someone on YouTube play it and I just don’t want to spend that much time playing that kind of game. I’m someone who grew up playing Mario 64, Mario sunshine, Mario Galaxy and I just recall spending so much time playing those games as a kid. So much time wasted. Cannot bring myself to do that again. I’m pretty stubborn and so I know because I wasted so much time on those Nintendo games that I would pull ridiculous amounts of time on another game like that. Not worth it anymore for me.
I remember that every single edition changed the cheat codes. Titanium Edition was my favorite as a kid for making them all short and easy to remember.
Also, there’s MechVM for an open-source engine remake that works on modern systems.
I should be playing Baldur’s Gate 3, and I want to be playing Baldur’s Gate 3, and my wife wants me to be playing Baldur’s Gate 3, and I sit down intending to play Baldur’s Gate 3… and then I play Stellaris.
I Finally beat Baldur’s Gate 3 this past week. Act Three was really intimidating but when I came back after taking a 6 month break, none of the items or interactions were as previous as before.
For Chrono Trigger, definitely don't play the original SNES localization. No disrespect to Ted Woolsey, he was one man working on an unreasonably tight deadline and hard technical limitations, but the retranslation is much better.
I’ve been playing BG3 with a loot randomizer. It really makes you have to think about your builds because you can’t rely on certain gear anymore. Makes it almost feel like a roguelike.
I have recently flipped my views for Nioh and Lords of the Fallen. Plaued through LOTF two more times for the Umbral and Inferno endings I never saw and to get item descriptions I didn’t get my first play through (they tie some flavor text to having high enough stats, all in the magi schools and my first dude was an ungabunga caveman) and I started to hate the game for its infuratingly bad design decisions that were done on purpose to make things artificially difficult or obscure.
Now I am giving Nioh another shot and it’s actually clicking this time. Still a bit awkward, but taking it slower than even Dark Souls 2 makes a big difference and feels like I was just trying to rush things before. Still not a fan of how the levels are done, but I kinda get the feeling this is improved in Nioh 2 which I will try after getting through Nioh 1. I have always liked its more complex fighting system, with the stances and how casting spells is more fluid than a Fromsoft game, it was mostly the Ki recovery thing that gets annoying (Ki is stamina and you can recover it by tapping a button at the right time, but being hit reduces it and it also gets slowed by certain enemy uh… things) but that’s not really being an issue as I play currently, except in some cases where I am clearly hitting it at the right time from the SFX and visual on my dude, but not actually getting the purification thing cleaning the yokai gunk off the ground which messes with positioning (thats the stuff that slows your ki regen for those who haven’t played).
It might actually have been better to have played Wo Long before Nioh, as it has many of the same mechanics and gameplay, but more simplified by not having the Ki system since it is only after absolutely demolishing that game in under 20 hours that even had me entertain the idea of giving Nioh a second shot.
Dhewm 3 for Doom 3. Just updates the game engine to run better on modern hardware since id tech 4 is open source. Mod support sort of, not every mod is compatible. They helpfully list those that do here: https://dhewm3.org/mods.html
Does VCMI includes the ability to play the original campaigns with everything they had, on whatever language they were installed? It’s not clear in their FAQ.
I tried installing the original with HD mod through lutris on a PC I am converting to linux, only to discover HD mod just doesn’t support the French version of the game.
Lutris apparently passes down the system language to the installer with no option to change it. I’m sure there is a way to change the install script, but I haven’t really looked into it yet.
If there’s a way to pass down the French version in VCMI and get about the same improvements HD mod provides, and get all that to run natively, maybe I won’t have to.
Well I was trying to run OG with HD, the original game already had a French version (it’s the one I’ve always played, even back in 2000). But I just learned that the HD mod was not directly compatible with it, though there might be workarounds. As is, it crashes as soon as I start a map.
Honestly even though I’d heard of the project before, I had competely forgotten about VCMI, so thank you for reminding me of it (very good timing too). If VCMI let me do what I am trying to do, really there’s no point messing with the OG install. I’ll try it when I can get back to it.
Viva New Vegas for Fallout: New Vegas and the Unofficial Patch for VtM: Bloodlines are my go-to examples. Not a mod but Ninja Gaiden Black is the definitive version and much better than both Ninja Gaiden (2004) and Ninja Gaiden Sigma.
Im just a caveman, but wouldnt keeping the same price as steam mean the developers get more money from Epic Games Store at the same price point because of the lower fees?
I'm about 40 jours deep into "Star Rupture", a pretty fun factory builder / survival / tower defense game that was recently released in early access. I really like it so far.
