Zelda: Minish Cap, and Castlevania are my favorites

thief_of_names,

Minish Cap is just absolutely amazing. The world is small, but very well made and fun to explore. It has aged very well (I imagine most GBA games have?) so I would recommend everyone to give it a go if they like that sort of game!

I’ve never tried any Castlevania games, maybe it’s time.

Thevenin,

The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap is one of my favorite games of all time. It’s the last isometric Zelda game, and they made it a swan song. The main quest it pretty short, but it’s the sort of cozy game where doing the sidequests just feels right.

In the game, you shrink down to the size of a mouse to traverse rafters and explore tiny temples and float on lillypads. It’s the sort of thing that would be no big deal in a 3D game, but is wildly ambitious in 2D. Not only do they pull it off, but they fill the environments with lush, lived-in detail that springs to life when you shrink down and look at it up close. The art style still sticks with me after 20 years.

Also, forget all the “hey, listen” stuff, your sidekick Ezlo just sasses you the entire time. It’s great.

Red rescue team, if you haven’t played a pokemon mystery dungeon game before. I played the DS version (blue rescue team) and loved it.

I really like the GBA pokemon stuff. Looks a lot better than the 3d games

sleepybisexual,

Yea, gen 7 looks kinda ugly. Even tho I like gen 7

WASD + mouse aim in FPS. Wolf3d, Doom1 and Blakestone used the arrow keys, spacebar and Ctrl back in the day. The arrows were turn, not strafe too.

I reckon it was some friends of mine in the 90s in Box Hill, Melbourne, Victoria who were the first to use WASD/mouse aim. Share house above a shop at the end of a tram line.

Elden Ring.

You’re either going to hate it long before you 100% it or you will 100% it because you love it so much.

Chrono Trigger

GrammarPolice,

People really love this game huh

Decoy321,

… Yes. If you haven’t played it, I highly recommend it. It’s a fantastic classic RPG.

aStonedSanta,

It’s one of those games where the sooner you play it in life the better. Because the sheer amount of references and homage to this game is insane.

GrammarPolice,

Oh, I’m actually playing it. Just about to fight lavos. I just didn’t know it was this revered in the gaming community

AngryCommieKender,

Which Lavos fight? There are several.

GrammarPolice,

Huh? I don’t know man, i just got done with all of the side missions before it, and was about to use the epoch to go to 1999

AngryCommieKender,

Gotcha. I know where/when you are. Have fun, and party like it’s 1999 :)

olafurp,

Because it’s just good. It’s like a modern indie game with big bucks software company money. They got top notch crew for everything and managed to make combat not feel like a chore in a JRPG with great music and story.

I mean, it’s hard not to like it. Recommend SNES version btw, modern versions are not as nice.

EnderMB,

My kingdom for the ability to play this on the Switch or PS5…

Retropie. You may already know what it is, but it’s well worth it and works rather beautifully.

@ekZepp@lemmy.world avatar

This is just great!

Psythik,

Yeah I can’t wait to try some new games today! Usually it’s impossible to find a good F2P game unless it’s really popular. Like Once Human, for example. I see why it’s popular but the gameplay loop isn’t for me. Too much gathering/crafting, and dungeons aren’t fun as a solo player. I was bored after 2 days.

Thanks to this new category, now I can just go down the list until I find something I can enjoy.

smeg,

This is a shameless self-plug but I post a lot of free games in !freegames. They’re primarily limited-time giveaways, but I also tag some with [Forever-Free Friday] which might be more what you’re looking for.

Max_P, do gaming w Best client for mc?(is this the right community for this the minecraft lemmy.world one is semi dead but not fully but releated)
@Max_P@lemmy.max-p.me avatar

I’d stay clear from those “clients”. I had a quick look and holy shit, they have stores with ridiculously predatory prices for skins. That’s 100% exploiting kids and their parents. Fuck that. Nope nope nope.

Use Prism. It’s open source, has existed for a very long time, works well and has been the goto on Linux for a while, and is actually a real launcher.

$7/mo subscription to remove ads! For a launcher. Insanity.

I think a TARDIS can do that.

Hello fellow gamers! Can I trouble any of you for an invite??? 😁😁😁

@JDPoZ@lemmy.world avatar

Doesn’t seem to be working - I presume because Steam says those chat links are single-use, so once anyone here clicked it, it becomes invalid.

I think a private message with that same kind of link would work though. Messaging you now. 😅

I’d love to get an invite, too. Thank you very much.

Any chance you can invite people? Would be grateful!

For the unaware, Deadlock is a 3rd person shooter MOBA. It feels like a mix of Dota and Overwatch/Team Fortress

So like SMITE?

TheCreeperFace,
@TheCreeperFace@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

from the 1 video I saw more like Paladins with Smite item shop

simple,

Not really, SMITE is a moba that happens to be 3rd person, Deadlock actually plays like a 3rd person shooter that needs proper aiming and headshots and a much faster pace.

bionicjoey,

I see. This is probably a pretty niche reference nowadays, but is it more similar to Monday Night Combat? That was an actual shooter IIRC and had mobs mechanics like lanes and creeps.

drphungky,

Good, cause I played the Smite 2 alpha and it was kinda garbage. I literally said out loud “this is like Dota for babies”. It didn’t even have good FPS mechanics to make up for no depth.

Virkkunen,
@Virkkunen@fedia.io avatar

It's actually closer to Battleborn. Like the other commenter said, it's more of a third person shooter with MOBA elements. There's focus on movement (you can dash, double jump, crouch slide, some characters fly), headshots and distance change the damage and melee/parry are just a button, while every character has guns as their man attack means. For the moba elements, it changes a bit since there's 4 lanes and it's a 6x6.
