Clair Obscur whenever I actually feel like playing anything. Though I can only take so much of it at once. The story and music? Amazing. The old-school turn based JRPG combat? Even with the dodge and parry mechanics it’s just as thrilling as an older FF game; and I hated the combat in those, too, because it’s kinda boring. It’s a bit more tolerable here, given that I have some skill-based things involved; but it’s still fairly boring. I just wanna know what the fuck is up with the everything about this messed up world.
I feel the same. It kind of drags on with the combat and there are sooo many battles between story sequences. And you have no choice but to pay attention to the combat because of the parry and dodge mechanic. I’m playing on easy mode because I can’t be bothered to learn the perfect timing for it. It’s difficult enough on easy mode.
You can skip some fights by running past enemies, but if you're struggling with combat the best solution is to take some time to optimize your builds. The game incentivizes glass cannon builds where you generally kill mobs before they can even attack. If they can't attack you don't have to worry about dodging/partying. I won't give any actual builds, those take too much effort and IMO it's more fun to figure them out yourself. But I will give some tips to make combat easier.
If you have defensive pictos/lumina equipped swap them for damage or AP.
Don't be scared to use color of lumina (for more lumina points) as you can get hundreds of them throughout the game. Trust me, having more lumina equipped will absolutely make the game easier
Also don't be scared to use recoats to respec your characters, you can get plenty of recoats. Try out different skills as some of them are more useful than others.
If you're struggling to strike first in combat equip first strike lumina on all characters. That lumina pretty much becomes mandatory in late game as even with all the speed modifiers stacked you still might not start first.
Also invest points into agility. Agility is the main stat for speed and speed dictates how often you can attack.
It took me a while to figure out how important higher level pictos are for their stat boost. Your base stats become basically irrelevant at one point when you can give a character 500 defense with one picto.
Blue prince is a DEEP HOLE. Just solved my fourth sigil. It is really relaxing to go in play one day, put it down for a couple of days ruminating on what you learned, then pick it back up and play 2 more days.
Oh god, what sigils? I don’t think I’ve even gotten to that yet. I’ve opened up the side yard and the mine, and got 3 of the 4 torches lit. There are so many puzzles! I think it’s better to know nothing, though, and discover it along the way.
I loved most of the gallary puzzles. But i still dont get the 8letter one, like i got it but it was all about finding the theme then brute forcing through all 8 letter words about that theme untill 1 worked.
Fun! Keeping a notebook is like half the fun of Blue Prince, at least it was for me. Same with Obra Dinn. I ended up with like 50 pages of notes for Blue Prince, as well as hundreds of screenshots.
Mixed bag for me. Love the puzzle aspects. Hate the roguelike elements. A lot of the puzzles relying on lucky draws makes testing theories for the more complex things a PitA.
Oh look, another day where I barely ever even got rooms that had more than one door, and now that my winding path has hit a dead end all my resources are useless. Next day I guess.
Just wait till you find out about the puzzles that require certain rooms to spawn in certain places so you can get the chance to spawn a special room from that room.
Or that some rooms being drafted in certain squares will be changed with key puzzle information now visible.
I feel like y’all aren’t ready to hear that Earthbound is 31 years old. The “new” thing you love, inspired by the retro thing you loved, is now retro and inspiring the next generation.
Now that you put it like that, I think what puts me off is all the melee and glory kills. Not my cup of tea. I need my social distancing from hellspawn. That, and the puny amounts of ammo. When I play a boomer shooter, I want to shoot. If I wanted melee, I’d play Mortal Kombat or something.
The lack of ammo is solved with the chainsaw. That’s why they give you puny zombies in every battle. They’re easy to kill for a little health, and it only takes one charge of the chainsaw to fill up on ammo.
Doom rewards you for playing aggressively, much more so that the OG game did. They want you to get right up into the thick of it, not corner peek with your shotgun.
Definitely fair if that’s not your type of game though. It’s plays quite different from the original.
I actually try to play less, phone less and focus more on drawing, journaling and touching grass
But I finished expedition 33 recently and before that I played some crusader kings 3 lotr mod
E33 turned out to be really long game and I wanted to finish it asap to see what happens. That resulted in a few days or so of a marathon that has physically and mentally exhausted me
I could not sleep at the last day after I went through the ending at all because I was tortured by crying fits
Now I remember that hugging moment even now I get sad immediately and it all just leaks out of my eyes so yeah. I am resting

Bro. You can’t do that. No one can handle that much feels in such a short span.
I have a serious deficiencies in emotional games played considering I only acquired such taste playing Honkai star rail penacony a year ago. Or rather arcane s1 tv series before.
Gladly taking the recommendation and open to any other
The most emotional game I played was To the Moon. It’s kind of like a jrpg walking simulator with some puzzles and light gameplay in it but a fantastic story.
The developer has made quite a few games in the series now but none hit quite as hard as the first in my opinion.
Remnant 2. I have no idea what’s going on, but I’m having a good time. The systems are pretty complex and unexplained so I just equip things that seem cool. So far so good! Thanks to other players joining my game I’ve been able to solve the puzzles, which honestly I would have had to lookup solutions for if I were only playing solo.
If you get any kind of consistency, you should reach out to the mods and get it added to the sidebar. I like having a thread like this in a gaming community.
I’ve been playing Kingdom Come: Deliverance in anticipation of the sequel, which I already bought. I feel like I never know when the next opportunity to do side quests will be, so I found a good break in the story around main story quest 8-ish, and I’m just doing those for a while. The first couple of missions set some false expectations for what this game is and what you’ll have to put up with, but it becomes much more straight forward after that.
I’ve also been going through the Borderlands games ahead of that series’ sequel, and I just got to Borderlands 3. Man, that game feels great to play. It’s been interesting to play through these games so rapid fire, because whatever my criticism was of the previous game, the developers also knew about it and addressed it in the next game. I hear the writing takes a turn for the worst in this game, but the first few hours are more than tolerable so far.
And for quicker sessions, I’ve also been playing through Devil May Cry 4. I started playing through these games back when Hi-Fi Rush completely floored me, and then some other games came out, and I put DMC4 down for a while. Now that I picked it up again, it’s still great, but I’m not really sure what to do with Nero’s revving mechanic.
Why are you trying to wean your girlfriend off of Strive? I love me some +R too, but both of those games are great!
Damn. I remember when it came out. When I first heard about it I was in the living room playing Assassins Creed 3 and a YouTuber I was into at the time uploaded a let’s play. Time really flies
odtrącone dziecko liberalnych elit się burzy? Nowe, nie znałem xD
winą rządu Tuska jest przegrana Trzaskowskiego, ale wygrana Nawrockiego - prawackiej patologii politycznej - to dzieło o wiele bardziej skomplikowanej układanki.
ale rytualne jebanie po liberałach najlepszym wytłumaczeniem wszystkiego, pozdrawiam.
I have the exact same take, and the exact same experience with my friend group. I love supergiant games. Anything they touch is solid gold imo. I’ve always said that Hades is an amazing game, it’s just supergiant’s worst game.
Personally, I think for me, it comes down to the setting. Bastion, Transistor and Pyre all had amazing, unique settings that made me as a player want to learn and explore everything I could. And again, Hades does an amazing job of painting the setting and fleshing out the characters, but it’s kinda just Greek mythology, which has been done before and I personally find it less interesting.
To restate, Hades is an amazing game, just imo it’s supergiants worst game.
I absolutely suck at it, but I started a save on SimCity 3000. I have a lot of learning to do because my city is 100% dying, so I should probably run through the tutorial…
I have also been doing very minor chip damage on completing Gemcraft: Chasing Shadows. I’m far enough along it takes a long time for me to beat any levels. And probably even longer when I finally am able to beat the 200+ wave level.
I also discovered that Portal is now 7.63GB in size currently, after buying The Orange Box for $3.99 and wanting to check out a mod I found for Portal that I didn’t realize wasn’t released yet. Don’t know how big the game originally was on launch, but now it’s nearing the 11.88 GB size of Portal 2, which I find insane.
I also kept failing at Zuma Deluxe due to bad luck and skill issues on my end.
