I absolutely loved the nihilistic ending to Mass Effect 3.

Lawbreakers was easily the most fun I had in a multiplayer game ever. Ok, maybe that spot is shared with Titanfall 2, but Lawbreakers is a far better competitive shooter.

I’m still holding out hope that the modding community will crack the server-side code and create a good server browser for it.

The Surge is way better than a sci-fi souls-like attempt that so many reviews seem to argue it is. And Shammy’s review of it really does it better justice than most reviews imo. The limb-targeting system makes it really engaging, and the sequel’s directional parry system adds the depth that Dark Souls and Elden Ring are missing. I highly recommend it for anyone tired of replaying Souls games

    most people and/or critics hate witcher 3? o_O

    wick,

    Oh fuck, I misread the OP

    feathercloaked,

    dropping the witcher 3 as an underrated game. r/gaming moment.

    wick,

    Dyslexia moment. I completely garbled the OP in my mind. Idek.

    jaemo, do games w What are your favorite games for killing nazis?

    Bionic Commando. Love love love to shoot Hitler in his doughy, laughable master race face with a rocket launcher through the window of a fucking helicopter as I fall past it.

    sith, do games w What are your favorite games for killing nazis?

    Steel Division 2 and Hearts of Iron 4.

    Bytemeister, do games w What are your favorite games for killing nazis?

    Metro 2033 and Last Light.

    But those are the only games I have with nazis in them.

    Well… There is that one nazi in Killing Floor 2…

    spacedogroy, do gaming w Forza Horizon 5 will be coming to PS5. Likely other xbox exclusives will too.

    I’m glad that PS5 owners get to play Forza, but overall I don’t have a lot of confidence in Microsoft’s ability to stay in the hardware market, which is concerning for everyone as I think Sony will leverage that position to raise their prices on their hardware and on PSN.

    Xbox has said it will be producing a new console next gen with powerful hardware, but I will probably stay away, despite owning a Series console this gen.

    The only review link I trust is

    …steampowered.com/…/Citizen_Sleeper_2_Starward_Ve…

    So it’ll be a while before I judge it’s worth.

    That’s like the one review site I don’t trust, because it’s steam users. One of the worst parts of human existence, on a level with 4chan in many regards.

    It can be good for a “vibe”. Like if something is mostly negative, might be worth looking into. But for an actual review? That’s just not what it is.

    Minnels,

    I often sort and read negative reviews, the ones that are well written. Then if it’s still interesting i read a couple of positive ones to get a better sense.

    Works for me.

    Just reading random ones is pretty bad indeed. Gotta be source critical like always.

    Return to Castle Wolfenstein VR port by Team Beef. It’s amazing.

    you know, for as much shit as mass effect 3 gets, in a lot of ways it’s my favorite of the trilogy.

    Loved the first one I’m please to see they seem to have landed a proper sequel!

    Stern, do gaming w What video game franchises do you not need to start from the very beginning to enjoy? What would you recommend as the entry point into your favorite series?
    @Stern@lemmy.world avatar

    I think the better question might be what series should you start from game 1, brcause thats a much tougher question. Just about all the long running ones you can hop in wherever and be fine. Where you wanna start with Mario? Don’t matter. Whats the play for Final Fantasy? Probably whatever the recommenders first one was. Megaman? X, 0, or basic its nbd.

    Yakuza is one I’d say you either start from the beginning (Technically Kiwami, but 0 is fine) or start at Like a Dragon (7, as it has a new protagonist)

    Black Mesa, if you are playing through the half life franchise. Also, probably one of the best remakes ever. I can’t think of a remake better than the original, and I played HL and Black Mesa back to back to be sure.

    otp,

    Trails in the Sky.

    2 picks up immediately after 1, and expects the player to already be proficient with the battle system from the start.

    3 would be confusing and boring without having played the prior two games.

    And yes, it’s a subseries, but still. Lol

    DjMeas,

    I’m so glad I started the series from Trails in the Sky 1. I’m currently on Cold Steel 2 and it’s been a great time.

    chiliedogg,

    Mass Effect trilogy.

    I would be curious to see which games would have you going back the furthest to fully get the story.

    Maybe something starting off on something like the MSX or Intellivision that was never remastered.

    @CorrodedCranium@leminal.space avatar

    With Grand Theft Auto I would say you could start anywhere. Each game features a different protagonist and they play quite different to each other.

    I would say playing 4 before 5 is probably a good idea because it doesn’t feel like as much of a tremendous leap compared to going from Vice City to San Andreas. Going from 5 back to 4 would probably make things like the car physics stand out even more.

    keepcarrot,

    I have a vague memory of some 2D ones early on

    The first three GTAs were 2D

    toastal,

    Except GTA III—what was 3D, hence the number

    There was GTA, GTA London 1969, and GTA 2 all in the 2D era.

    toastal,
