I like RKG! They play Dark Souls and those types of games- one of them plays, the other two chat about the lore of the game or whatever. Right now they’re playing Elden Ring!

You could watch best friends play. They dont make new content but if you havent seen any of it there is plenty to watch. Sad they are gone though

If you don’t mind a group of friends playing multiplayer, there is Stumpt. Depending on the game they’re playing, you either get some commentary about the game or in the case of videos like their Game of Life 2 videos, they kinda just talk about whatever because they’ve played it so much.

Jelloapocalypse plays games with his friends. He also has highlights up on his main channel if you'd prefer something more edited.

LetMeEatCake, do gaming w Current PC is too bad for Cities Skylines 2. Can anyone judge the PCPartPicker list I've put together?

Cities Skylines sees a fairly decent improvement going to the 3D cache chips from AMD (17% speedup here for the 5800x3D). Whats your ability to increase the budget to go for a 7800X3D look like? If this is a genre of game you like and you want to hold off as long as possible between upgrades, it might be worth springing the extra. The difference the 3D cache provides in some games is rather extraordinary. City builders, automation, and similar games tend to benefit the most. AAA games tend to benefit the least (some with effectively no gain).

A 7600X should be more than capable of handling the game though. So it’s not a question of need but if it’s worth it to you.

You do not want 4800 CL40 RAM though, that’s too slow. I’d strongly recommend going for 32GB of RAM as well; 16GB can be gobbled up quickly, especially if you want to use mods in Cities Skylines.

Going up even to DDR5-6000 is not much of a price increase. I’d suggest 6000 and something in the range of CL36-CL40. There’s a lot of 32GB kits in those specs in the ~$90 range. I would not build a gaming system today with 16GB of RAM.

squid, do gaming w Buggy games should be 100% allowed to be refunded.

If you’d not mentioned BG3 then more people would agree, but any game that is buggy should be refundable for sure and to say other wise is anti consumer

Varyk, do gaming w What unusual genre mixing video games would you recommend to try?

I’m sure everyone is all over this, but Dave the diver is so much fun. Little bit of rpg, little bit a farm sim, little bit a restaurant sim, throw in some action sequences

Hideakikarate,

That game is a little bit of EVERYTHING.

Zahille7,

I’ve certainly been enjoying certain content creators absolutely destroying the local shark population.

Subnatica. Exploration, farming, habitat building, and creepy at times. You will love it

w00,

As even just the trailer instantly triggers moluscophobia for me, nope fuck that.

teawrecks,

I’m in the minority, I know, but I have mostly negative memories of playing Subnautica. I enjoyed exploring new areas, and the progression of the story, but the hours spent looking for one more resource so I could progress just made me mad. I don’t like save-scumming, but after

spoilerlosing my seamoth to a leviathan for the 3rd time, I said fuck it, and save-scummed regularly.

I had just finished playing Outer Wilds and my friends said “oh, then you would love Subnautica!” No, not the same kind of game at all. I say all of this so that anyone thinking of playing it has the right expectations: if you can’t find the one thing you’re looking for, I recommend just looking up a guide on where to find it. I don’t think the game funnels you to the correct areas well enough for you to find everything you need naturally.

bob_lemon,

When I think of Subnautica, I just remember having to drink water like every 5 minutes or so. I would have loved to explore, but I was busy getting basic resources all the time.

gooble,

The game does have a freedom mode where you don’t need to worry about food or water.

XbSuper,

But then there’s no challenge, so it gets boring.

I wanted to like subnautica, but I just couldn’t.

teawrecks,

That was another reason, yes. Apparently you’re supposed to find the parts to the water filtration system relatively early in the game, and it will regularly spit out large bottles of water that help a lot. I didn’t. So yeah, for 90% of the game I’m having to periodically chase Bladderfish for 5m so I can spend 2 minutes spam crafting a bunch of waters, so i can carry several around with me, taking up valuable space in my inventory.

TrousersMcPants,

You can play on a mode without survival mechanics, or find the water filtration system and grow plants from the islands on your cyclops to trivialize them. Before you get there though they’re kind of a pain.

tigeruppercut,

Yeah, I really liked it but I wish the devs would’ve implemented one more skill mode at a slightly easier level. I was OK with losing whatever inventory I’d collected during the single trip if I died, but I really wanted the “sea moth doesn’t explode you just have to start from base again” mode. Especially since I lost one of them because I couldn’t figure out which key did the electric charge zap thing.

We’ve proven that we can find the blueprints and materials necessary to make the thing in the first place, so having to collect all that metal again (with limited inventory space) just felt like busy work.

teawrecks,

Yeah, I think I can only tolerate busy work games when played in a group. Because then you can delegate the work, and at least you’re still hanging out. Like the Forest.

Yoko’s Island Express: Pinball Metroidvania!

BumpingFuglies,

Yoko? Oh, no. It’s Yoku’s Island Express, and it’s fantastic.

ObamaBinLaden, do gaming w What unusual genre mixing video games would you recommend to try?

It’s a pretty popular one but I’m currently playing through Disco Elysium and it’s a masterpiece of thriller detective with very strong RPG integration. Highly recommend even if you don’t like either of those genres as long as you like a good story.

ayaya,

It’s also one of the funniest games I’ve ever played. There are so many moments where I fully burst out laughing. The game absolutely rules.

It looks amazing but I blacklisted the game until the legal disputes and controversies are ironed out and clear.

Worst Premade Ever (WPE)

They are British, one of their editors is from New Zealand. They threatened to replace their editors’ livers with live badgers if they unionized. 10/10 would watch the surgery.

Well, not dedicated to that, but mr samuel streamer (mostly crusader kings and rimworld) has an alt channel where he shoots the shit with his fiance, and sometimes they play games together. They’re playing vampire: the masquerade: bloodlines rn.

NathanielThomas, do games w Weekly what have you been playing discussion - week of October, 2, 2023

Can I just say, that I loaded up Starfield tonight and the NPCs are the worst I’ve ever seen in 30 years of PC gaming. Their bug eyes and lack of reaction or response to anything is so far beyond uncanny Valley that I actually am impressed at how terrible it is. This is the worst game I’ve seen released in a very very long time.

Rain world is a really good survival platformer

TrousersMcPants,

Rain World is fantastic, especially after Downpour came out. I love having a reason to beat the game at least 5-6 more times!
