kiljoy, do games w What game did you find in a bargain bin that turned out to be awesome? For me it was Z by Bitmap Brothers which I got at Zellers for $0.47

I got metal gear rising for 5 bucks at a 5 below. Everyone shit on that game but running around as ninja Raiden was so fun.

Potatos_are_not_friends,

I bought Phantom Pain for like $4. I was really burned out of the series after MGS3.

But Phantom Pain is incredible! Giant open-world game where my main focus was collecting pokemon soldiers by tying balloons to their asses.

I don’t believe you can do that.

I think if you played multiplayer you kept a copy of their character, so you could get another account to join? Maybe get someone to make your characters for you

glimse,

I don’t think that’s true, my multiplayer characters made in my friend’s games don’t have saves in my game

RisingSwell,

My friends character is in my coop game, and I could in theory continue to play using their character instead of mine.

AnonStoleMyPants, do gaming w Do you prefer playing with Keyboard or controller more, and for what type of games?

Kmb. If it is nor implemented well in the game I just skip the game.

For anything that requires speed and precision: Mouse and Keyboard.

Everything else I can go either way.

Morrowind promised and delivered complete freedom to roam where I wanted and I found it in the big box of videogames at Superstore… That was after trying it for 15 minutes, thinking the animations were jank as hell even back then, and then not touching it again until a month later when I thankfully gave it another chance because I was bored

batmaniam,

I played that game entirely to young and somehow finished the main quest line, eventually.

But man, I spent so many hours just murder hobo-ing it because I didn’t really understand the quest based game loop yet. I’d just pick a direction and look for something cool. When I found someone that looked like they’d have cool stuff I’d just kill them and take their stuff. The only time I’d reload is when I got the prophecy warning; I broke like every quest except the main one.

This was compounded by the fact that 1) I was really enjoying just exploring and 2) that game was not particularly hard to destroy the balance on. Even a kid with poor mechanical skills could get wildly OP pretty easily.

12/10 no notes.

Kedly,

Morrowind was the first game I started “Do a quick save so that I can go on a murder spree, and then reload when I’m done” xD Also learning how to insult people wearing glass armour enough so they’d attack me first, and now it wasnt illegal for me to kill them and loot the glass armour off of them

batmaniam,

hahha, I’d just go on a spree picking up as much Ordinator armor as I could, sell it, and buy off my bounty.

That’s pretty clever for a kid!

batmaniam,

never underestimate the strength of boredom and time in a pre-DSL era lol

Fallout and Fallout 2. Two disk set at Walmart for $10 in the late 90s. Kept me busy through college, and I was so happy to see Bethesda bring it back from the dead and create some of my favorite games of all time!

Discounting Steam because otherwise I’d be here typing for an hour listing all the cheap games I enjoyed from there.

Lufia 2 for the SNES, which was great because it was a prequel to Lufia 1, though it took me a couple years to finally track down a copy in the pre-internet days. I was pleasantly surprised to find out it was a prequel, and there are actually massive spoilers for the 2nd game in the intro for the 1st one, so I unintentionally played them in the right order!

Not quite “find your pocket change” but a solid value: Starcraft + broodwars for $20.

So, soooooooo many hours. And it came in a sweet looking box! Like the kind that people shell out an extra $50 for as a pre-order these days.

I’ll always remember you this way Blizz. You were one of the greats.

Mission Critical, back in the 90s

God I loved that game.

All of our NES games were bargain-bin. Section Z was the only one we had with a decent soundtrack, which made up for how often I died

First person or shooter games I use mouse and keyboard for better control. I couch PC game so it’s actually a wireless trackball and keyboard I use. For anything else it’s controller.

EvaUnit02, do gaming w Do you know any good JRPGs with engaging gameplay similar to SMT?
@EvaUnit02@kbin.social avatar

tri-Ace games have fantastic combat mechanics, imo. Give the original Valkyrie Profile, any Star Ocean (later games have more intricate combat), or Resonance of Fate a spin.

Noxar,

This is the first I hear about tri-Ace games. Thanks!

I once got Lufia II for SNES for $5 from Blockbuster. Absolutely amazing game and I still have it!

TheQuietCroc,

That’s also how I got my copy 😂

deegeese, do gaming w Baldurs Gate 3: Start a new (premade) character, keep save?

Can you use one of the premade to tell your custom to wait at camp?

bearwithastick,

No, already tried that. Unfortunately doesn’t work…
