In the same vein but very different: Warhammer: Vermintide 2 and Darktide. No local co-op and cross-play for them though.

The whole We Were Here series is marvelous. Asymmetrical co-op puzzle games. My friend and I’s recent games list looks very similar to this.

We also do a lot of single player games with one of us streaming over discord. When it’s a slow-burn puzzle or mystery game, it doesn’t really matter who is actually controlling.

For those types, I really recommend Return of the Obra Dinn. We’re currently working our way through the entire Frogwares Sherlock Holmes collection. The old ones are so terrible, which is a greatness all by itself.

Duamerthrax, do games w What games popularized certain mechanics?

Serious Sam The First Encounter claims to have invented event cued music. Ie, intense fight music stops once an encounter is over.

Quake is believed by many to have invented Rocket Jumping, but Marathon (1993) had two forms of it first.

Marathon and Rise of the Triad both released with duel welding pistols in the same week.

frezik,

I dispute the Serious Sam claim. The LucasArts iMUSE system was doing things like that years before. Even among fps games, the first Dark Forces game used it.

Duamerthrax,

I might be miss remembering the claim. It was from a documentary, so I might be able to find to when I get home.

frezik,

It’s also possible they just didn’t know. LucasArts didn’t push the system all that much in their PR. You’ll see it in some bullet points on the retail boxes, and articles of the time might make a passing reference to it. It was quite a remarkable system for the time and they were very low key about it.

Duamerthrax,

Probably just that.

chanibal,

And ROTT also had rocket jumps.

Silksong soon to join Duke Nukem Forever and Half Life 3 in the halls of “never released.”

RightHandOfIkaros, do games w What games popularized certain mechanics?

Metroid, which spawned more than half of all indie games.

cyberpunk007,

More than half seems bold, otherwise I agree

RightHandOfIkaros,

It sure feels like more than half of them label themselves as some blend of metroidvania, as long as it isnt a cardbattler or a roguelike, its 100% going to label itself a metroidvania.

cyberpunk007,

I guess I just look at it as you’re saying FPS, MMO, RPG, RTS, etc are less than half.

MindTraveller, do games w Looking for Overwatch alternatives

For Honour. It’s a competitive sword fighting game. You’ll like the combat system. She’ll like devising a strategy on how best to lead the creeps to overrun the enemy castle.

Or maybe you’ll prefer Foxhole, a persistent trench warfare simulation game where players manufacture every bullet and build every fortification. It’s not as fast paced as Overwatch, but I bet she’ll like digging a trench for you to use for cover as you nail fools and slowly take ground from the enemy.

BG3

hexabs,

If only there were more achievements tucked away in the character creation menus😢

GuStJaR, do games w Should I play rdr1 or rdr2 first?

I played rdr2 first and later played rdr1. Playing 1 made me want to play 2 again, which I did and loved it even more the 2nd time rpund.

I personally don’t think playing them out of order ruins anything story wise. It’s like watching or playing a sequel as opposed to a prequel if you play 2 first.

But…whilst rdr1 still looks and plays great, playing 2 first may take some of that away, as you’ll be used to rdr2 which is just about as perfect a video game one can be. I’d therefore recommend 1 then 2.

Banjo Kazooie 2

There are no others…

blusterydayve26,

Speaking of Rare games, I was on track to 100% DK64 until my save corrupted on the final fairy. Never tried again, damn those bananas.

BaroqueLobster, do games w Should I play rdr1 or rdr2 first?

I played RDR2 before RDR1 and regretted not playing RDR1 first.

CaptnNMorgan,

It didn’t age well imo

VelvetStorm,

I’ve only played rdr2 and I don’t regret it at all.

Cyberpunk personally, have done it a couple of times. I can just soak into the couch playing that game. My average playthrough time is about 150 amazing hours

UnfairUtan,

Such a great game, I’m so glad to have waited long after the release to play it.

I would recommend it to anybody now!

The last game I did 100% was Psychonauts 2. I loved the world and after playing the fantastic story it was a good reason to spend some extra hours revisiting the levels.

Prox, do games w What’s a game you can 100% without hating by the end?

Cyberpunk 2077 with Phantom Liberty. 100+ hours of pure joy. And when you need to take the edge off, you can always spend a nice evening with the love of your life.

@The_Cunt_of_Monte_Cristo@lemmy.world avatar

-I finished Mafia 2 long before I finished Mafia 1 and I loved it. But after playing Mafia 1 DE, I replayed Mafia 2 and the story felt worse than Mafia 1. -F***ing police. They are everywhere. -Stupid achievements like “drive 1000 miles”, “collect 150 posters”.
