Duamerthrax, do games w What game sequel ruined a beloved franchise or character for you?

Not necessarily beloved, but I hated the tone and genre shift between Jak and Daxter and Jak 2. I hated the driving sections so much, that that’s where I put the game down. Looking back, I guess they wanted to make a different game, but had to make a sequel?

Zahille7,

I played the series in reverse order so I love Jak 2 and 3. TPL is okay, but I do actually like the action-y gameplay of the sequels.

Evrala, do games w Gamers have you ever been in a game competition or something similar?

For a while I was part of the number one raiding guild on the server with the worst progression in WoW.

Wyrmrest Accord, you were great.

So I got that going for me, I was among the best of the worst for a couple months!

justsomeguy, do games w Gamers have you ever been in a game competition or something similar?

I used to play WoW 5v5 arena competitively in 2007. This was way before they went hard on e-sports so it’s not really comparable to today. Just to give you some perspective, the winning team at blizzcon got $25k which meant $5k each which (again, only in case of winning the world championship) would’ve just so covered my travel costs.

Honestly it was terrible. At first I used to play for fun and only accidentally ended up in a top team. Then my team got way too ambitious and it became more of a chore. I told them early on that I had no interest in playing like that but they couldn’t find a replacement so I kept playing with them until I was fully burned out. It was nice being good at something but it ruined the fun of it.

jaykrown, do games w My new game is live for anyone to play at https://kewbash.com/

Raw PvP 1v1 matchmaking, no user accounts, no database, etc. If there is interest I’ll keep building it, but otherwise I’m done with it for now aside from fixing any critical bugs that may arise. It’s alive!

No Man Sky. Pretty relaxing, not really needs super concentration.

decipher_jeanne, do games w Good racing games on Steam?

As everyone else said, Aseto Corsa but I find it’s only good if you have wheels and pedals already.

I don’t remember who makes the Forza games, but imo, except for Grand Tourismo, they have the best controller experience out there. Forza Horizons 5 is a bit arcadey but still realistic-ish, and does rally and road racing but not circuit. And it’s Microsoft locked. Forza motorsport is bad, don’t waste money there and its even more Microsoft locked.

Into the Breach, turn-based and would probably look great on a CRT

CarbonatedPastaSauce, do games w Recommendations for games to play on a treadmill (i.e. not too intense)

I have played a few hundred hours of XCOM 2 on my treadmill. But I’ll play anything turn based that I can use a controller with. Steam controller takes care of the ones that need a mouse.

Balatro since it’s not realtime

I can’t believe you’ve been doing this for over a year already.

Kowowow, do games w Robocop: Rouge City

Coming to the comments to see what the joke is, huh loundry oddly doesn’t set off my autocorrect

Onyxonblack, do games w what video game deserves to be in a museum?

Well it’s certainly not Elden Ring, and it doesn’t matter how pretty the Thumbnail is. No DLSS or any of the other options is frankly just laughable.

Objects in museums don’t have to be there because of the art, but also cultural/historical significance. Elden Ring and the rest of Fromsoft’s Soulsborne games definitely deserve to be in a video game museum, like the MADE in Oakland, CA.

Waryle,

What a bad take. Do you also think the Seven Samurai movie shouldn’t be in a museum because it’s not IMAX?

@Twinklebreeze@lemmy.world avatar

And there’s no CGI.

prole,

Do you think “art” only means “pretty pictures”?

No DLSS

If I was reading a list of “games that should be in a museum,” and the author mentioned fucking DLSS as being an important factor, I would have exited the page immediately.

Abraxas,

you have the worst taste maybe imaginable in games that you’re ‘opinion’ is futile lol

boonhet,

Ah yes, DLSS, the option to make your game look worse for better performance.

It’s not a necessity for a good looking game.

Breezy,

You must have never went underground in elder ring. It is the most beautiful thing ive seen in a game.

Thoath,

It’s too late, accept history

zod000,

I still have my copy in my own little museum in my office with some of my favorite (or in this case most notorious) games. Does that count?

Thoath,

Yes, however the Smithsonian also counts, which is also where a cart is…and the Henry Ford museum…and the museum of Failure:3

Dwarf Fortress is, in fact, in a museum.

duchess,

Along with a bunch of others.

Ashiette, do games w what video game deserves to be in a museum?

For me, it has got to be tetris. It is still thriving, even today. Anyone can understand the base concept and play it : it’s simple and enjoyable, anywhen. Plus, it runs on remotely anything.
