Dave the Diver! It looks so goofy but give it a shot. It’s got hilarious cutscenes, and a really well executed blend of roguelike, restaurant game, resource management, and story RPG.
I'm currently playing V Rising with a friend on a private server. I like survival games but I hate PvP, raiding and griefers. So far it's pretty good fun! Like a mix between a Diablo-like ARPG and something like Valheim. You don't need to grind resources so much, you collect plenty just playing. The focus is more on combat. Some bosses are pretty tough and progress is gated behind them.
Currently into Triangle Strategy’s New Game+. I’m enjoying that game way more than I thought I would. It’s a fun, charming successor to the strategy JRPG. It has few tropes and the mechanics have been streamlined while maintaining challenge. Surprisingly low magic as well. I mean there are plenty of magic users, but no monster, no supernatural armageddon and the end game is not “kill god”. It does have that peculiar JPRG theatricality, so you need to be fine with that.
I’ve been playa Red Dead Redemption (the first one) and I’m enjoying it a lot. I’ve decided to play without the on-screen map and it does wonders for immersion, recognizing areas, locations, where people are, etc. I highly recommend it!
Emulate the Switch version. It works far better than trying to the get the PS3 version to run.
If you like the idea of playing a large open world game without a minimap, I can also highly recommend the first two Gothic games, Gothic II in particular. Maps for this game can only be bought, found or stolen and they don’t show your position. Since every location is hand-crafted and unique, you won’t actually miss having a minimap. Even two decades later, these titles still wipe the floor with most open world games in terms of world design.
I really like that in RDR2 you can disable the mini map and replace it with a plain compass. It has the added feature that you can briefly show the mini map again if you need to get your bearings, and it disappears after a short delay. Definitely helps with the immersion.
I remember being very unimpressed with RDR, though that could be because I rushed through it the week before the sequel came out. In my experience rushing through a game like that ruins the experience completely.
What is it you enjoy most? Open cowboy world or the story or something else? Might have to go back to it (and actually finish the sequel lol)
Well I’m not a huge gamer, specially since I have a kid, but I was expecting GTA with horses, but I’m enjoying it a lot (I don’t really like GTA) anh I had not played this game, since I never had a console, but it came out for switch and I went for it. I’m not going to try to sell it to you. The no-map immersion is a big factor, I guess, which is new for me!
Still mainly Diablo 4, but a lot less this week. I finished my seasonal goals faster than I thought, and have been slowly mopping up some of the stuff that's season independent. I filled out the map, found the Altars (3/4 by myself the rest with a guide), and also did all the dungeons to unlock the legendary aspects, but I guess those reset, and you have to do them again in the new season (or just the ones you're interested in).
Then I also did more Soulstone Survivors runs. So far I've been mainly playing as the default class, the barbarian, and unlocking everything for him. There's so much stuff, and then do a lot more for all the other classes as well. It's fun, though still lacks a bit of variety, mainly in the levels.
I've been playing a ton of Pillars of Eternity still. I think I can wrap up Kana's quest before I head into Act 3. I've got a lot of irons in the fire of my quest log that look like I need to advance the plot or level up more to finish them, so Act 3 is maybe when they intended for me to finish those.
Interesting, I wondered why I’ve had messages from automod about removing old posts of mine, and why I’ve seen some recent ones I’ve contributed to suddenly disappearing.
Was this the new team or the previous mod who has done this?
Anyway, good luck and have fun with running the community. Hope to see more from you folks.
