I really don’t feel like copying that name on my phone. What game does the 3rd one make?

Also, I’m playing Stellar Blade, and I’m not sure I’d ever get through it without Easy mode.

Lee,

I also didn’t want to try typing the name, search suggestion helped me. I played a couple of his games and they weren’t particularly difficult, so I assume it’s referring to his later games: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomonobu_Itagaki

tetris11,

Isn’t he the guy from The Room

mika_mika,

Oh hi Mark!

PumaStoleMyBluff,

Apparently it’s in reference to Ninja Gaiden:

Lots of game recommendations here, but for hardware, look for a cheap MMO mouse. All the buttons you could ask for, on a single hand. Could unlock more games.

UnbrokenTaco, do games w Sliced off the tip of my thumb, what are some good one handed games?

Some other options.

If you have a joystick or wheel, flight Sims, space sims, racing games might be possible.

RTS games in single player mode (just play on an easier difficulty). Plenty of decent ones have been released in the last little while. Also, maybe 4x games, total war etc.

Digital Board Games might work too.

Echoing what others have said: size doesn’t really matter until it’s notably empty with nothing of interest to justify it.

But also, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla.

MajorHavoc, do games w Which year was the most stacked for game releases?

One could argue Tetris could carry the whole competition alone, but it is joined by Mario Brothers, Duck Hunt, Spy Hunter, and Gauntlet in 1985

I would leave it at that, except Pac-Man, Frogger, Galaga, Defender, and Donkey Kong make 1981 a contender

squirrelwithnut, do gaming w Thought's on this month's Humble?

It’s worth it just for Another Crabs Treasure alone. That game was very good and has one of the most interesting takes on the souls-like genre.

jacksilver,

It was a surprise hit for me. It feels more approachable than most souls likes and has a pretty decent story.

voytrekk, do games w Europa Universalis V | Review Thread

I picked up the title. Haven’t gotten a chance to play too much, but it feels much more noon friendly. Automations let you focus more on the parts of the game you want. The tutorial happens during a regular game instead of a separate mode. Performance has also been great on my machine.

NuXCOM_90Percent,

Yeah. I never fucked with EU but I am a huge CK sicko and… I have a LOT of problems with Paradox as a publisher but they’ve really been pushing their internal/flagship studios to focus on onboarding and approachability for these games.

Was really surprised to see that the new East Asia DLC for CK3 actually added a new tutorial sequence/character. Haven’t sat down yet to see if it is focused on the Mandate of Heaven or if it is just for people who want to get back in and are sick and freaking tired of Petty King Murchad.

What are your game recommendations?

@PerfectDark@lemmy.world avatar
  • Shin Megami Tensei 4
  • Bravely Default
  • Professor Layton (I LOVE PROFESSOR LAYTON!!!)
  • Kid Icarus: Uprising
  • Metroid: Samus Returns (I’m obsessed with Metroid)

But I’m also playing The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D for the very first time on the AYN Thor at the moment. I’ve never stuck with it, and I’m enjoying it so much. What a game! I’d have expected the ancient age would make it less of a game, but nope. It’s perfect!

There’s so many more, but that’s a nice little cross-section of GREAT games :)

neon_nova,

Thanks for this list.

I played the Metroid game and I love that series.

I’m not sure I liked smt4 too much, but I’m not familiar with the others. I’ll check them out.

I got a 3dsxl about 6 months ago for some Pokémon action, now I need something new.

darkreader2636,

+1 for Bravely Default I love how much Revo cooked with OST

prole,

There is a modded version of Majora’s Mask 3D out there that fixes the stupid shit they broke

v4ld1z,

Not OP, but I haven’t seen it recommended in this thread yet: the Monster Hunter games for 3DS are really good. Specifically 4 Ultimate is considered by fans of the games to be among the very best the series has to offer. Added verticality to the previously very flat games, lots of new moves for existing weapons that make them actually viable options, amazing new monster designs and areas etc etc. Huge recommendation. The story is also actually quite passable and engaging compared to previous entries.

If you’ve played Monster Hunter back in the PSP days, Generations might be up your alley since it’s kind of like a best-of title of most main-line MH games prior. Really beautiful homage to the roots of the franchise

neon_nova,

Thanks, I did give that a try and didn’t have much of an opinion of it. I’ll give it another try though.

orochi02, do games w For those of you who enjoy open-world games, how big of a world is too big?

Morrowind

RightHandOfIkaros,

Morrowind was exactly the perfect size for its content.

I would argue Daggerfalls map is unnecessarily large for the content it offers. At least Morrowinds NPCs have regional variation. In Daggerfall every innkeeper is exactly the same NPC. Its a technical marvel of its time, but by current standards is rather shallow.

orochi02,

Yea i think I mixed it up

markz, (edited ) do games w For those of you who enjoy open-world games, how big of a world is too big?

Measuring size alone is meaningless, as gameplay affects perceived size, and density of meaningful content in relation affects the experience.

Size should match content.

Skyrim is canonically pretty close to the size and shape of Estonia, but in game it’s very small. If the game’s content was spread out to the “real” size, it would feel completely barren.

The map in Deus Ex MD was quite small, just a couple tiny districts, but it punched way above its size because it was so dense in detail.

Jrockwar,

Agree. If you could go into every single store, house, nook and cranny of Cyberpunk 2077, and talk to all the NPCs, it would feel absolutely humongous. Gameplay significantly affects perceived size.

Hazmatastic, do games w What's your favorite case of a game making fun of you?

Far Cry Blood Dragon’s tutorial section. The game is very aware of how impatient gamers are to get to the killing, and milks it for all the time it can while the PC grumbles about annoying tutorial sections. They throw in a ton of extra dialog boxes like accompanying reading recommendations, obvious tips,etc.

The whole game is meta and corny on purpose. If you like '80s action movies and sci-fi, they packed just about every trope possible into this thing. Heavily recommend if you haven’t played it.

KingGimpicus,

Seconded.

I have more fond memories of blood dragon than I do of farcry 3 and 4 combined, despite blood dragon being like a 20 hour standalone dlc

I also make sure in to visit the easter egg shrine everytime I’m playing the appartment section.

I feel like Remedy has a knack for that.

They definetely do, always a treat to explore their spaces.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has one of the most interesting world in stories inside and outside of gaming. I hope we will see many more stories set in that world.

The hook alone is great.

Spoiler for the prolog and trailers.Around the end of the 19th century the whole world broke apart and a part of Paris (called Lumiere in the game) was thrown into the sea. And this giant “Paintress” started painting the number 100 on an enormous monolith and each year she counts down. And everyone who is that old or older evaporates into ash and flower petals.

So the people started sending out expeditions to find out wtf is going on.

Spoiler for the rest of the game.The world is actually a magical painting the Paintress’ son made when he was a child. For him, his sister and their parents to play in. But when he was an adult their other sister was tricked by “the Writers” into setting a fire which killed him. In her grief the mother fled into the painting because it was the last bit she had of him. Fearing she would stay in there until she died of starvation the father went in as well to get her out. As she wouldn’t relent he started erasing the painting and she tried to prevent that. Every year painting the age of the people she wouldn’t be able to save from him onto the monolith. So we actually have this world of magical Painters and Writers who are at war with each other and it is hinted that there are Musicians as well. And who knows what other artists with magical powers exist in this world. I’m imagining Programmers joining the fray in the future. The possibilities both inside any art pieces and outside in the “real” world are endless.
