The Last Campfire is delightful, and feels like being read a bedtime story. God, it’s good. I could listen to the narrator read the back of a shampoo bottle.
Planet of Lana is a drop dead gorgeous side scrolling puzzle platformer with a beautiful soundtrack and world building.
Beacon Pines isn’t technically linear, in that you can complete some stuff in an order of your choosing. But the overall experience is quite linear. Its an exquisite experience, I can’t recommend it enough.
If you enjoyed Undertale, play OneShot. No question. Its splendid.
Night in the Woods is a joy as well, it makes me nostalgic for a childhood I never had. Must-play.
Stray - you are a cat doing cat things in a broken future. Splendid experience.
Mirror’s Edge is a game I think everyone should experience at least once. It’s beautiful.
Celeste - it has the best tuned difficulty curve I’ve seen in any game, and it wants you to succeed. It also tells a really beautiful story. God the platforming is good. Its so good. By the end of it, you are doing things you never thought you’d dream of doing. You’ll feel like a speedrunner with all the little movement tricks you’re able to do.
Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice is a thought provoking masterpiece and a little spooky.
This isn’t a review of the vanilla game, but I get your point. I was mostly just debriefing after the long playthrough after going back to it all these years later.
I always hear people shitting on Bethesda and praising mods, but I played the fallout and elder scrolls games years ago (never modded) and absolutely loved them so it’s always confusing to me. The comments in one of the cross post threads, at least earlier, were all shitting on fallout.
I think my feelings are mixed in that aspect. I used to really love Bethesda games but after playing 1500+ hours of Skyrim and many hundreds of hours of fallout now, I think I see it for its limitations as well. And the mods end up highlighting shortcomings. The vanilla games are still a fun time I think.
Also other games have just come in and created much better story arcs and characters that highlight how bad their writing tends to be. Skyrim was written okay but even then it never did anything that felt like plot development. Instead everything there goes as expected, you’re just wowed by the scenes and dragons.
And yeah I think Bethesda continues to lack polish in what they do and it’s really showing. Even when fallout 4 came out all those years ago, every piece about it felt dated. It felt more like it dated back to Skyrim in ways, so I can see why Starfield failed even if I plan on playing it. I just hope Bethesda fix their issues because Elder Scrolls 6 can’t have this many loading screens, this many bugs, or this flat of a story. Sadly they have a trajectory on all of those things.
I played Fallout 4 when it first came out and wasn’t super impressed. I beat the game but never went back to it, unlike New Vegas, which I’ve replayed many times. Perhaps I’ll look into mods and give it another shot.
That’s what I did. Played it once with no DLCs on release, then ignored it. But with mods it’s actually much better. And if you like the difficulty of New Vegas, the extended mod pack I used helped a lot with that.
I really missed the grit and dark tone of new Vegas and while it doesn’t live up to that, mods get it much closer.
I would count Sifu as being pretty linear and very good. Probably the best martial arts fantasy-ish game out there that’s single-player (for that but multiplayer take Absolver, the same devs’ first game)
Arcadium 1 is about as linear as it gets. Its kind of like that game Aero Fighter from the 90s, mixed with Space Invaders. Just shoot the aliens and dodge their shots. On the way, there are gems and power ups that can make your future forays more rewarding.
This is a mobile game – it’s available on iOS and Android.
People listed Mirrors Edge, and I would like to also recommend it. It might take some time to adjust to the controls but it’s fun! I replay it a lot. I’ve lost count but I’ve been replaying it since release.
Titanfall 2 was a fun campaign. Also cool movement mechanics.
One game that I think got average ish scores but I enjoyed was Pneuma: Breath of Life. Idk why but I thought the puzzles were kinda fun and it was pretty enough.
The Stanley Parable
Catherine
(Kinda visual novel ish) AI Somnium files was fun.
Brok The Investigator. There are multiple endings, but each different ending has a linear enough progression, even if the first time you have no clue as to what ending you’ll get. The only thing you need to do for different endings is making different choices.
Simple enough game set in a world where the poor, slummers, live in the polluted, rundown slums while the rich, drummers, live under the high quality dome. You play as a crocodile (alligator?) who is a detective, a slummer named Brok who lives with his teenage cat son Graff. Not saying much more because spoilers, even though the drummer and slummer and the polluted world thing are kinda minor spoilers despite learning about them real quick in chapter 1.
The occasional puzzles aren’t too hard to figure out, at least I thought so for all but one. And if you don’t like the combat mode, I’m pretty sure there is a way to turn it off, though I’m not sure how it affects gameplay/choices. Though, the upcoming DLC (whenever it releases) doesn’t look like it’s gonna be linear since it’s all about the games combat system and adding bonus challenges to fights. So I’d probably avoid that if you aren’t playing the game for the combat.

W sumie by mi się przydało, więc zaraz odpalę do testów Speech Note; github.com/mkiol/dsnote
Można zainstalować przez ‘sklep’ z aplikacjami w Ubuntu/Debianie wyszukując po nazwie, albo jak chcesz się poczuć bardziej hakersko - instalacja w terminalu:
flatpak install flathub net.mkiol.SpeechNote
Jeśli masz komputer z oddzielną kartą graficzną (GPU nvidia albo AMD) to warto doinstalować elementy do tego i tego i ją wykorzystać, bo to na pewno znacznie przyśpieszy działanie. Program Open Source, działa w całości lokalnie, ma nic nie wysyłać do internetu, więc znacznie bardziej prywatne niż używanie czegokolwiek online. Teoretycznie polski jest tam w pełni wspierany.
Na lekko złomotawym komputerze bez karty graficznej prędkością nie powala, dyktując powyższy komentarz musiałem poczekać ze 2 minuty aż go przemieli, ale wynik zaskakująco dobry. Jestem pod wrażeniem.
Po instalacji trzeba wejść w języki wyszukać polski i wybrać model językowy do ściągnięcia. Pierwszy z góry dał słabe efekty, ale faster whisper large v3 daje bardzo dobre wyniki.
