The first fear game really scared me when I was younger. I was 16 maybe and that’s how I found out I don’t like ghosts haha.

Playing in ym room at night alone in the dark. Ghosts coming out that I can’t hurt haha

Fuck that was bad

Darkwood. Incredible 2d survival horror game.

I’m not a horror game enjoyers so my scariest games are Subnautica and Dredge both of which were already mentioned. But after reading some of your responses I’ll recommend you Hellblade Senuas Sacrifice. It’s not a horror game but it’s an incredible intense experience. Headphones are a must tho.

Megaman_EXE,

Hellblade had some of the best audio design I’ve heard in a game. I’m curious what games will take inspiration from it in the future

I’ve really liked my time with Signalis. It does some neat stuff with it switching between the top down sections and first person puzzles/segments.

Megaman_EXE,

The world building and nods to other horror games was a lot of fun! I hope they make more horror titles in the future

Recently, some games that shouldn’t have freaked me out, but did, were parts of Outer Wilds and Subnautica. Subnautica, in particular, got me with a very good jump scare that I think made me jump harder than any horror game has in the past decade lol.

I find games that induce dread really help with being scared. If you have any niche titles I would love to hear them too. I must have missed a lot probably anything prior to 2005. But even recent titles there’s a chance I could have missed them too!

WalnutLum,

You should play voices of the void then. Game is chock full of random spooks with lots of very quiet and relaxing downtime, so they hit pretty hard when they happen.

The problem is the new wave of gacha games are really selling you on characters and Hoyoverse isn’t even hiding it anymore: The more money you pour into Zenless Zone Zero, the less clothes the Proxy wear in the unlockables.

Varyag, do gaming w I have been getting into emulation (discussion)

Welcome! Emulation is probably my favorite method of gaming nowadays, giving me access to most of the classics of gaming from over 20 years of history all at once. If you have a decent computer you get get everything up to the PS3 generation easily, and a less powerful one or a phone can go up to the PS2 or PS1 gens, still giving you plenty of gaming options. I have found so many games and genres I would normally not get into, by trying them out via emulation. Arcade games, especially. I love arcade shmups of the 90’s and early 2000s.

there is an emulation community on lemmy.ml and another at lemmy.world but I would understand if you don’t want to interact with those. I am kinda surprised dbzer0 doesn’t have one.

Well we don’t “pre-open” the communities😅 . The hope is that emulation enthusiasts would naturally realize our instance is the best fit for that sort of thing.

Varyag,

Hm. Maybe I’ll do it, then. Don’t know if I got the patience to admin a community but I am an emulation enthusiast.

Gamers_mate,

Awesome, If you decide to make a community I will definitely be interested in joining!

Gamers_mate,

Thanks I did do a bit of playstation emulation a few years ago but pcsx2 was a lot less stable back then.

sic_semper_tyrannis, do gaming w GBA suggestiongs?

I know of Gradius Galaxies and Iridian II

sleepybisexual, do gaming w I have been getting into emulation (discussion)

Ooh. What systems you playing? I mostly playing GBA rn

Gamers_mate,

Ps2 at the moment but I have played NES/SNES and ps1.

sleepybisexual,

On PC? Or what hardware? :3

Gamers_mate,

On pc though I still have a ps2 if I wanted to play on the actual hardware. But I do find Emulation is easier to set up no plugging the AV cords into the tv or constantly having to change discs to play different games. I also use Aethersx2 if I want to play ps2 games on android.

sleepybisexual,

Ooh :3

I mostly play on dedicated machines,

Also try nethersx2 its a aethersx2 patch that removes ads and shit

Gamers_mate,

I don’t mind as long as they don’t make the ads intrusive. If the ads become intrusive I will try nethersx2.

Lunacid, great lil’ game until you decide to try and get all the achievements.

Ending spoilersThe one thing I don’t really like is how all of the world building is more or less inavlidated by the classic “it’s just a dream bro”.
Yes, the dreamer is supposedly an eldritch being, but I’d like to appreciate all the tiny little lore connections you can find without the looming threat of “this doesn’t make sense because it’s all a dream”. Like with skeletons.
Why skeletons?
All enemies in the game have some sort of explaination, from the simple “this is a fog beast” to “holy knights cursed themselves and became abominable horses, tainting vampire cattle and turning their captors into the puddle of harm that currently stands in your way”. But skeletons?
They don’t have any explaination, unlike the mummies of the Temple of Silence - they’re just nondescript undead enemies where undead enemies thematically fit. The dreamer put them there, because it’s a dream.

Prepping, still, for a DnD campaign. Pulling all the stops, with music (ripped from Cyberpunk 2077 and looped), art (done by me), branching narratives when my players do something unexpected, custom homebrew mechanics (it’s cyberpunk red ported into 5e, so as best as it can be ported), etc. I really want to start it soon but I have to migrate all the stuff I had made on a foundry server to my computer, and that’ll take time since I’m cleaning it up as I go.

Apart from that, killing bugs and heretics on Space Marine 2, killing bugs and heretics on Rimworld, and killing imperialists and fascists on Squad.

Just when the new season in World of Warcraft starts, I stop playing. I had a lot of fun, but also played a lot these last couple of months. WoW is also not a game I just play on the side. If I play it, I basically play nothing else. No idea when I’ll be back, probably if my best friend starts again, but who knows if that happens.

I wanted to check out the latest re-release of Doom with Doom + Doom II, and look at the new episode, but decided to try and play through all the levels of the first two games on Ultra-Violence, Pistol Start, and no save scumming. I’m halfway through episode three of Doom, and it’s not been too difficult so far. Three levels took me a few tries, the rest wasn’t too bad. The main thing is a lack of ammo, especially at the start of a level, so you either got to get comfortable punching things or cause infighting. I usually choose the former, so the Berserk power-up is always a welcome sight.

Then I started Lies of P. I killed three major bosses so far and it’s alright. I play on KB+M, and as always controls are just so-so. It’s not like you have 60-100 keys available, so better put two or three abilities on the same button or force players to cycle through item shortcuts.

NocturnalMorning, do games w Where are the improvements in AAA games?

How much innovation can you get when you have to spend millions of dollars on large teams to develop games now, compared to even 10 years ago? It’s not really all that surprising that companies want to play it safe. It’s a large investment, and they don’t know if there will be a return on it.

That doesn’t even get into the fact that there’s only so many combinations of things you can do in a video game.
