Avicenna, do games w Emoji blobs or construction vehicles? Help me choose my game's visual identity | 😊 vs 🚜 |

I find that stuff like emoji blobs or too cartoonish characters prevent me from immersion and prefer the right amount of realism to “silly graphics”. Wouldn’t call that a necessarily a universal rule though.

I actually liked Dying Light a lot more before the multiplayer update rebalanced everything. God damn single player game is now balanced for two people, even when you’re solo.

I bought it. Looks cool.

The construction vehicle looks a bit more visually legible. I do like the cute emojis, but perhaps a moving icon is not the place for them.

Though if it makes sense for the type of vibe you are going for, they could still work as an alternate skin kinda like lichess/chess.com alternate pieces and tilesets

I’ve always liked some of the stuff that Kenney produces:

Might be some inspiration there

What and absolutely gorgeous website and assets! I may indeed take inspiration from these.

Recently discovered The Division 2.

Apparently this game came out before the pandemic and also predicted it. So-so gunplay, great rpg progression so far (I’m level 23/40), and the world is insanely beautiful. I like dungeon crawlers, I like exploring, I like shooting stuff, so this game fits pretty well.

Unfortunately, it has this weird, mouse sensitivity jitter issue that seems pretty tied into framerate for some reason. I dropped my mouse polling rate way down and that helped a ton, but it’s still there for whatever reason.

Replaying the division at the mo, but love both D1 and D2 although noting the engines/environments are great but the stories characters are pretty bland.

Zahille7,

The first game is so incredibly atmospheric. Walking through the empty snow-covered New York streets, looting through abandoned houses, apartments and offices; exploring the subway and other iconic NYC locations.

Naho_Zako, do gaming w Whats the best free to play anime gacha game if at any at all?

I haven’t tried it yet but Umamusume apparently is fun and even got a reward for ongoing game or smth at GOTY.

Not anime girls, but cookie run kingdom is fun, has a great story, doesn’t cost an arm and a leg to have fun, and lets you easily collect the old characters that you missed, high ranks included

On the $0 trend, I restarted Just Cause 3 as I’m generally in a bad mood these days. Very satisfying 😌

Despite the very standard protagonist, Dying Light was a real treat.

My Christmas game this year has been Jusant. Just got to the last chapter and it’s been the perfect vibe.

There is a rumor that Dying Light 2 will be given away by Epic in the next week or so. They are giving away a different game every day right now.

Welcome to 2016. Sorry :[]

Haha I got my Oculus Rift CV1 in 2016. It absolutely blew my mind in Elite Dangerous, when all the building sized ships ACTUALLY were building sized.

VR has come a long way since then.

Ascendor,

You’re right. But the kind of immersion, the turning of the head stuff was the same back then. Elite: Dangerous is a good example for it.

Just finished Alan Wake. Not what I expected from the game but overall interesting. Somewhat like the idea of making it like a TV Show. Short but story was decent.

Started playing Amnesia: rebirth.

Kept me hooked for way longer than I planned for the day.

Ghost of Yotei. I’m not far in but it’s very good so far if you like Ghost of Tsushima.

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

Is it just more Ghost of Tsushima or does it add any new mechanics?

nogooduser,

It feels very much like Ghost of Tsushima but there are a few small differences.

I only have two fighting stances unlocked the second being dual katanas.

You have a wolf that pops up and helps every now and then.

I’ve only played a few hours though and I can see a lot of unknown unlocks.

teft,

I’ve beaten the game. There are new weapons (i think you get 6 main weapons and 5 ghost weapons) and a wolf companion but it’s pretty much the same. I really liked this one and the original. The story is weaker in Yotei but i enjoy the combat enough that it doesn’t bother me much.

I agree, sadly racing games are the worst for vr motion sickness for me. Wish there was a way around it.

Most can get past the simulation sickness with time. The key is to never let it get so bad that you get sick or experience pain. Only do small sessions of activity that slightly push the envelope, and be patient.

I don’t recommend racing games to anyone new to VR.

Ive got pretty decent vr legs and I experienced some nausea after about 30km of rally racing (around a half hour). Went away after a few minutes. I’ve got a very strong pc so there was zero lag and it was buttery smooth but the nausea still happened 🥴

Wlm,

If you think it’s worth the investment you could keep on trying. It does get better over time. What helped for me initially was only turning my head on straights, and keeping it straight ahead on turns. I’m guessing because then you’re not mixing real and fake acceleration. It defeats the purpose a little, but might be worth it. Oh and also what other people said: quit while you’re ahead. Recovery can take hours if you really push it, similar to seasickness. Oh and don’t do accidental donuts in your Ariel Atom all the time. That was fun until it wasn’t 🤢 😉, back with Driveclub on the PSVR 1.

Also - close your eyes if you are about to crash or spin!

… I should try it out again, see if there are enough games out there to make valves new headset worth it.
