If you’re into simple games, there’s one called Lato from F-droid. It’s just a snowboarding game where you click to jump over boulders and cliffs with a changing atmosphere and relaxing music. It helps me ease my mind.
This is interesting, it looks like a remake of Alto’s Adventure. The control sensitivity takes a moment to get used to, but the background is just as nice as the original, and the music is indeed relaxing
Which handheld do you have? The games depends on the screen size and buttons available. Without that information, /m/balatro@lemm.ee is the only safe bet I have.
A Retroid Pocket 4 Pro? That thing is an emulation beast. For me, I'd be right at home playing Dreamcast and PSP games with RetroAchievements turned on. But this thread isn't about emulation.
I bet /m/skychildrenoflight@lemmy.world runs great on this thing. Dead Cells and Streets of Rage 4 seem to be popular picks too. I'd look into unofficial ports like RSDK, Ship of Harkinian, Open XCOM, Open Lara, and D1X-Redux. The Retroid front end can probably install some of those for you.
Deep Down Dungeons, Final Fantasy VI, Final Fantasy VII, Quest of Dungeons and Tyrant’s Blessing are turb-based RPGs, and Tyrant’s Blessing specifically is a tactical RPG.
I was almost done with it last week, but I finished Baldur’s Gate - Siege of Dragonspear DLC. It’s terrible. The story is trash, especially the second half, and all characters, your party included, lose the ability to put two and two together. I haven’t played BG2 and don’t know if I ever will, but I can’t imagine this DLC is adding anything to the overall story.
Then I played through Final Fantasy VII Remake again. I definitely thought the game was shorter, mainly because I forgot about all the terrible moments. I still like the game, but there are a bunch of bosses and sequences that are cancer, and the game would be better if they were removed completely or at least much shorter. Hopefully it doesn’t take too much longer for Rebirth to make it to the PC.
Finally, I re-subbed to World of Warcraft for a month. For the 20th Anniversary, there’s a huge 3-month event going on. It’s running until early January, and you can get a bunch of old or removed stuff again. I’ll just do some quests once or twice a week, so I can buy the stuff that I want.
So in BulletHells you’ve got a ton of shit coming at you that you’ve got to dodge carefully, right?
In BulletHeavens, all that chaos comes from you. You run around as all your attacks go off constantly, getting more extreme as time goes by, and hundreds of enemies get deleted in seconds.
Vampire Survivors has been absolutely owning my free time for weeks now, it’s so much goddamn fun and there is so much to unlock and use it’s amazing. Just when I thought I learned pretty much everything, I unlocked something and opened up a whole new game’s worth of content.
Good buys… Cities:Skylines is great, but need some DLC for a good game experience… Vanilla version of game is poor in content. Europa Universalis IV is a good game. You have a game for many hours and many DLC too…
A steam deck is my recommendation. I have a £2000+ gaming PC that is now practically collecting dust because of my steam deck. Being able to just game anywhere in my house, from my bed, from my couch, from a chair in a sunny spot in my garden, has been a game changer in a way I didn’t expect. I’ve owned handheld consoles before but none of them have hooked me in the same way.
The fact that I have my entire backlog of PC games available to me and don’t have to buy into a new ecosystem (like the switch or previous handhelds) is a huge bonus, but the absolute winner here is the variety of input options and the degree of customizability, as well as the fact that its a PC, so I can fuck with the refresh rate and the clock speeds and all that - extending the battery life!
The portability also has me being a bit more social with the other occupants in my home. I can play some low-focus game on the couch while they watch TV, for example, and we can chat and so on, as opposed to being isolated to the room where my PC is.
If you think there’s any chance you’ll get a kick out of being able to just grab your deck and go loaf somewhere comfortable to game, its a no-brainer to me.
