who, (edited ) do games w Baldur's Gate 3 or Clair Obscur: Expedition 33?

For interesting game mechanics and replay value: Baldur’s Gate 3.

For beautiful music and nice scenery: Expedition 33.

If I had to choose, it would be BG3.

I like replay value, but music and atmosphere is very important to me.

Can you replay Clair Obscur?

How’s the soundtrack for BG3?

who, (edited )

You can replay any game, of course, but Clair Obscur’s gameplay is mostly on rails with basic JRPG combat repeated over and over again, so I wouldn’t bother. (Honestly, I found the gameplay boring within a dozen hours or so.) Its music is where it really shines. You could buy the soundtrack alone for a fraction of the price.

BG3’s atmosphere is good. The soundtrack is IMHO less inspired than Larian’s previous soundtrack and not really outstanding like the one in Clair Obsucr, but still decent. And as a game, BG3 has a lot more to offer.

Good to know, thanks.

teft,

Less inspired soundtrack?

Lives, all mortal lives, expire
Souls go to their dooms
In flame, forevermore

That song is fire.

zipzoopaboop,

Unfortunately for you both are great in both. Though bg3 music is mostly atmospheric and 33 has multiple songs that went in to my regular playlist

Clair Obscur does technically have an NG+, though I’d say it’s less of a focus than in Souls games. There is, however, quite a bit of foreshadowing and pieces of the story that you won’t understand on your first playthrough but that hits different the second time through. I personally opted to consume it by watching others play after I completed my own first playthrough, but I’d say there is grounds enough for a second playthrough if that’s important to you.

lelgenio, do gaming w why do many game run better with Proton than on native Linux builds? i know that it's a non-issue from the technical point of view, but it grinds my gears.
@lelgenio@lemmy.ml avatar

I assume this is part due to many games only having support for OpenGL and DirectX, and no Vulkan support. OpenGL has the worse performance of the three, and DirectX is windows only.

But when you using proton, you are likely also dxvk, taking benefit of the optimizations made by game/engine developers for DirectX, while suffering little overhead from the DirectX to Vulkan conversion.

HeyThisIsntTheYMCA, do games w What games have mastered "Both emotional extremes"?
@HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world avatar

which emotional extremes? happiness? joy? fear? sadness? terror? hunger? beautiful food? lust? lust for the beautiful food? i got a lot of emotions just right now lets be real, there’s more than two.

Katana314,

Sorry I should have clarified.

I specifically meant hunger and lust. I will begin removing other examples.

MycelialMass,

I dont think hunger is an emotion

https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/8a3d0e5c-4417-4967-8dc7-7b32b5155cbc.gif

MycelialMass,

Oh no doubt food can evoke an emotional response, like coming home on a cold rainy day to smell of your loved one baking cookies or something. But hunger itself I wouldnt class as an emotion

HeyThisIsntTheYMCA,
@HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world avatar

i guess you haven’t experienced capitalized Hunger yet then. like, not eating for two months hunger. trust me, it’s an emotion as well as a physical response.

slimerancher, do games w Day 408 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

I want to try this, but I am not a big fan of sandbox games without any set goals. Is there any kind of single player campaign in it?

lankydryness,

Sortaaaa, it’s pretty weak from what I remember and mostly served to give you a reason to explore more of the sandbox and use the different features of the game.

Schal330,

It has a loose story to get to the center of the universe, but I can’t say I’ve ever made it there as I always end up doing other things

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

Heh, have heard similar things from others, just not sure if that would work for me, but still, sounds like worth a try at least.

plm00,

The campaign is more or less the tutorial. Otherwise, you set your own goals. Like unlocking new building materials, buying a new ship, stuff like that. It’s a sandbox. A very good one at that.

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

Thanks. I guess I should just give it a try some day.

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

There is a story. I wouldn’t say it’s particularly fascinating unless you really love Sci-Fi but there’s a bunch of side quests to do as well

Doc_Crankenstein,

The game has periodic expeditions that have some story to them, and there is the main overarching story plus the “Journey to the Center” bit

But yea, it’s mostly a sandbox where you make cool bases (and now cool space ships) or try to make number go up and grow an intergalactic trading empire.

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

Number going up can be fun for a while too…

drmoose, do games w The recent Steam censorship debacle actually sort of opened me up to adult games.

My recommendations:

  • Aurelia is an adventure point and click where you move to a cozy fantasy town. Beautiful art and presentation and just good erotica all around with reasonable puzzle and rpg gameplay.
  • Third Crisis is an ultimate gooner game. It really goes out there and if you’re into that sort of thing and it’s really well made.
  • Kaiju Princess hang out with a girl who’s secretly a kaiju monster

Most steam erotica games started out as poor quality visual novels or clone games with titties but the scene is really shaping up to something much more interesting!

SabinStargem,

I personally like Galaxy War’s “Let’s Get Married!” series, which is two puzzle games. The premise is to advance through dungeons by spending health, keys, and money. Enemies are not just obstacles, they drop money and the route you take through each level will determine what resources you have down the line. The meta game is to keep track of routes, and in future playthroughs, have a more precise plan that accounts for the future. It is very math-based, since there is no RNG. Each action is a tradeoff. It is the same gameplay as DROD RPG and Tower of the Sorcerer. The characters and molestation elements feel similar to Rance, though more good-natured.

The Dungeon of Lulu Farea is the first entry.

https://lemmy.today/pictrs/image/20e89c09-b91f-49ed-ae99-7d0be4932a03.png

Another game of interest is Monster Girl Dreams. While I personally don’t care much for the battle fuck system, I very much like the variety of characters and the large amount of dialogue that can be had with them. The game is freeware, and well worth playing if you enjoy lovey-dovey sex with monster girls.

https://lemmy.today/pictrs/image/ba77d3bb-1bc5-4f38-9b0f-44ea87b8fe56.png

In a similar vein to Lulu Farea, I am interested in Star Knightess Aura. Some resources cannot be replenished during a playthrough, so you need to consider routing. The plot might be interesting, as it is about brainwashing the protagonist. You select what aspects of her personality are altered, changing her one thing at a time. For those who are into corruption, I think it holds promise.

It wa really hard having fun ripping through the wasteland as the ugliest self-indulgent chaotic-evil idiot savant I could be, while knowing the backstory is from perfect picket fences and I could lecture Dominic Torreto on family.

“You need to find your son!”

“Uuuugh, do I have to? You can have him.”

I was so uninvested.

@Supervisor194@lemmy.world avatar

I won’t even play the game without modding it, and first in line is always Start Me Up. You can write your own story about who you are and it converts all the Sean quests into “find this dead guy’s kid.” So much better.

saltesc,

Oh, that’s cool. That rnlght be worth a reinstall once I finish my current games… IF I can make it out of Nexus with under 15 mins browsing mods and not picking up any that CTD and take an hour to isolate and remove lol

Making the straights uncomfortable is great fun. :D

Bennyboybumberchums,

Its working real well in America right now… Almost like being a prick to people for “great fun” had negative consequences or something… But lets imagine someone said “Making the gays uncomfortable is great fun. :D”… That would be bigotry, right? Yet for some weird reason, you feel totally fine and safe to say something like that… How odd…

    Cry a little more, you whiny inbred twatwaffle.

    Bennyboybumberchums,

    Man, they ruined a perfectly good bum when they put teeth in your mouth.

    RizzRustbolt,

    “They called me a fascist bigot, so I had to start acting like one!” is the argument you’re accidentally making here.

    Bennyboybumberchums,

    Yeah, thats pretty much how it works. If you treat people like theyre pieces of shit long enough, they start acting like pieces of shit. Its fucking basic psychology.

    If everyone calls you a dick for long enough, it will chip away at your self esteem. Eventually, in order to try to improve your situation, you’ll reach out to something bigger than your self. Thats happens every single day for things MUCH less than treating people like they are fascists. For most people, the thing they reach out for is a football team or something like that. But for others, it can be something much worse. Like race, or religion, of political parties. People often ask “How is racism still a thing?” Well, this is how. Low self esteem. And it happens every day with out the help of fuckwits like the guy I responded to, who has clearly already made their choice to be a bigot.

    Theres never any excuse to hate a person because of their skin colour, their sex/gender, or who they love. And if youre trying to make an excuse, you might not be the hero of the story you think you are.

    RizzRustbolt,

    Or… perhaps some honest self-examination is in order?

    Bennyboybumberchums,

    Or perhaps, its fucking text book? Christ, pick up a book and actually read it sometime, instead of just getting all your information from facebook.

    bluecat_OwO,
    @bluecat_OwO@lemmy.world avatar

    maybe the connotation behind this is, gay people making straight (homophobic) people uncomfortable.

    Because every other meaning would derive into a form of hatred one way or the other

    rockettaco37,
    @rockettaco37@lemmy.world avatar

    Yes, but unfortunately some people in this thread lack the reading comprehension to understand that. That’s ok. I’m sure if they keep practicing, they’ll get there eventually.

    Bennyboybumberchums,

    “I didnt say what I mean(yes you fucking did), and now Im going to cry about it.”

    Since the first time some asshole cried “die, cis scum, die” we have known exactly who some of you are.

    bluecat_OwO,
    @bluecat_OwO@lemmy.world avatar

    bruh who knows what they meant, but what you mean is, I am pretty sure, kind of mean.

    Don’t be a meanie bennyboybumberchums, spread love, even if they don’t love you(consensually ofc)

    Bennyboybumberchums,

    We know exactly what they meant, because they said the words. Thats how you know what people mean. If they meant to say make bigots feel uncomfortable, they would have said that. But they didnt. Why? Because they see all straight people as the enemy in this weird little culture war they have going on.

    Im a firm believer in you doing whatever you want in life, as long as it doesnt hurt anyone else. Trans, gay, straight and everyone else in between. You do you. But when I see this shit? Dude, rubs me the wrong way. Its just hate to fuel the stupid as fuck culture wars. And people are eating it up and spreading it around. Straight people are not the enemy. Some of them might be, that that doesnt mean you get to hate them all, any more than you get to hate all black guys because some of them sell drugs to kids. Thats just bigotry, and it makes hate so much easier to spread. Just look at MAGA, and how easily it spread amongst them. All because nuance left the conversation, and everyone started to generalise. Its enough, it really is.

    bluecat_OwO,
    @bluecat_OwO@lemmy.world avatar

    Yes I agree with all of what you said here. But I also believe that if they say they didn’t mean what they said, and the original statement has the possibility to get misconstrued then I think they can be given a chance.

    Unlike maga figurehead, who contradicts his every statement on hourly basis
