Missing crossplay really sucks. I theoretically have an enthusiastic squad … too bad one player only has a PlayStation while me and the other person have PCs.

chloyster,

Yep it’s really whack. Sucks too because I have 2 distinct squads. A crew from college and a crew from high school. One on PlayStation and one on PC… Like I could buy it on both I suppose but that just sucks lol

Megaman_EXE,

That seems like a massive oversight. That’s so weird. I get it’s probably way easier to implement it the way they did. But because you likely will wana group with friends, it really limits people

FromSoftware doesn’t really do extra.

I didn’t see these listed so I’m dropping some objective masterpieces here:

  • Persona 5 Royal
  • Golden Sun
  • Golden Sun: The Lost Age
  • Horizon Zero Dawn

Edit: Added HZD as I didn’t see it while scrolling through this post.

Super Hexagon

It’s about as simple as a ‘modern’ game can be (I read there was even a port of it to Commodore 64.) but it’s a finely tuned machine. When you lose - and you will, a lot - it feels like mostly your own fault and not the game’s.

The difficulty levels very accurately start at Hard for the easiest one. There are 6 total levels, the next 5 difficulties are Harder, Hardest, Hardester, Hardestest, and Hardestestest.

With much time and luck I can beat the first level (unlocking the 4th). On a lost save I had unlocked the 5th level by completing the 2nd, and have only ever seen the 6th in videos from other people. I would have to beat the 3rd to see it myself, and that’s not happening.

The criteria to beat a level is “last for 60 seconds”.

FooBarrington,

Super. Hexagon.

It’s hard to explain the relief I felt upon beating the last level. I can fairly easily survive for 300s in the first one, but I’ve never gotten close to beating the last one again.

The most important tip I can give: if you have a 60Hz monitor, turn off VSync. Makes a huge difference.

There’s also a “spiritual successor” called Open Hexagon that’s extendable by the community if you want more, though I haven’t played it myself.

davidgro,

I’ll have to try that vsync thing when I get a new PC (laptop). I’m playing stuff on my phone or Android tablet lately

stormdelay,

It’s really good, I played it again recently after not touching it for maybe 10 years, and finally beat the last difficulty in an attempt to prove to myself I’m still not old

I thought at first you guys were thinking of this, and I was puzzled. Then I looked it up.

Crivens, it’s like a combination of Tempest and Flappy Bird, but since it’s a Terry Cavanagh game it’s also been whacked over the head soundly with VVVVVV.

Thanks Samuel that’s really kind of you 😊

grrgyle, do gaming w That fucking helicopter level

For years this was MAP16 (“suburbs”) of Doom 2, but over the years I’ve grown to appreciate the more chaotic/abstract levels.

See also TEETH.WAD (“express elevator to hell”) from the master levels. Punishing and IMO tedious.

What a pleasant surprise to find this on lemmy! Excellent write up as always.

_hovi_, do games w What are some good cooperative shooters? Hidden gems?

Darktide is fire, it’s a left 4 dead style game (horde shooter?). If you want 2d shooters, I really enjoyed Broforce and Huntdown (that one’s a real gem)

scathliath, do gaming w That fucking helicopter level

Wolfenstein’s fucking helicopter level on impossible.

magic_lobster_party, do games w What are some good cooperative shooters? Hidden gems?

Timesplitters 2 and 3 for some older stuff. They’re spiritual successors to Goldeneye (made by mostly the same people) and they both feature fun coop campaigns. Shouldn’t be too difficult to emulate.
