Sure thing!

Kajo, do gaming w We all have 'that game'. For me, it's Europa 1400: The Guild. What's your's?

The Binding of Isaac

Or Slay the Spire, if I want a turn based game.

captainkaba,

You should check out Across the Obelisk, it’s a beefed up version of StS and I really think it’s heavily overlooked

Kajo,

It’s on my steam wishlist, now. Thank you for the recommendation.

Yeah it’s Europe 1400: the guild for me too. Love that game and can’t get behind the second or third game. I loved to play it over lan with my friends.

It has so much atmosphere to it, I don't think any other game has truly replicated it so far. Haven't tried the third yet but I heard bad things.

The third works but that’s it. It was a buggy mess when it got into early access but the second developer that took it over did good work.

You are right. The atmosphere and that you did not have to micro manage so much stuff made it into a really great and relaxing game.

aksdb,

I loved to play it over lan with my friends.

Or as a true Guild player describes it: “keeping save game backups and doing regular checks to figure out if the game state is still in sync”. “The Guild” was the reason I got a “It’s not a bug, it’s a feature” T-Shirt for LAN parties.

And don’t get me wrong: I am saying the game is SO GOOD it was totally worth all that trouble. I wish so hard for someone to release/leak the source code some time so someone with enough pain tolerance can try to rework the network stack. Or maybe a remaster of that game. It has a so much better feeling than its successors.

I would buy four copies if they would make a remaster/remake with the possibility to play over the internet. Damn… gonna install it again and I will start looking at creating a vpn server.

aksdb,

In my experience the sync issues get much worse over VPN. The implementation seems to be extremely timing sensitive.

Oh and over the internet you don’t have the chance to quickly look over to your pals monitors to notice that their current court hearing scene looks different from yours (at which point you can alt+f4 and look for the last good savegame).

thats a shame.... Then i will have to play solo.

mainfrog,

1400 is a masterpiece. It’s a shame that the sequels went for this 3D sims styled gameplay. I don’t want to control the whole family. I want to control one member of the family.

I never really managed to get into NV. I really should give it another try soon. I loved 1,2 and 3. Played 4 a bit but lost interest after a while.

I think it’s the whole western vibe that NV has going on that put me off.

Might have to install it again and put some serious hours into it to see if I manage to get hooked.

XCom 2

realitista, do gaming w Why do people choose the WORST possible organization of their inventory?

I spent way too much time coming up with the most efficient and organized system in RE8.

It was the sims 2 but after the sims dlc started getting ridiculous I ended up finding rimworld which I like much better.

GolGolarion,

Huh, rimworld is kind of like sims 2 if you think about it. You control a bunch of hapless goons, build nice houses for them, and orchestrate their tragic demises.

bijuice, do gaming w "Don't deny him a warrior's death, Harry." Disco Elysium fanart (Artist possibly Sphecidwasp on Twitter)

It’s been a year since I finished this game and I’ve thought about it every single week since then.

lorez,

It’s amazing. I’d like to read the book set in the same universe but there’s no English translation.

HotLine,

I think this might be it. I downloaded it a few months ago but i didn’t start reading it.

lorez,

Thanks a lot! Will read.

bijuice,

Disco Elysium’s writing revels in it’s excess and I love it for what it is in game, but I don’t think I’d be able to handle reading about the Franconigerian calvary without Lenval Brown’s silky-sultry voice narrating it to me.

lorez,

I’d give it a try.

MrGerrit, do gaming w We all have 'that game'. For me, it's Europa 1400: The Guild. What's your's?

It was Diablo for me, but D4 just doesn’t scratch that right itch for me at the moment. Still play it from time to time but not as religiously as I did with the other entries.

Enter the gungeon I also play a lot over starting a new game.

VoxAdActa,

but D4 just doesn’t scratch that right itch for me at the moment.

Try Grim Dawn. The graphics are mildly dated, but it’s my favorite entry in the ARPG genre. Tons of replayability.

BudgieMania, do gaming w We all have 'that game'. For me, it's Europa 1400: The Guild. What's your's?

For me, it's any of the Total War games I like, or Battlefield 1, or Left 4 Dead 2, or any From Soulslike.

I like to call them evergreen games, because I'm a total snob. The kinds of games that you can always go back to no matter how long it's been, that you always know how to play by instinct at this point, that always entertain, feel weirdly comfy and make for great choices when you don't know what you wanna do. God bless them.

shanghaibebop,

Which total wars though

BudgieMania,

That's a decently long list lol, Medieval 2, Rome 1, Rome 2, Attila, Napoleon, Shogun 2 sorta... (I don't dislike the ones not listed, I just vibe less with them)

If you count mods and expansions, the list gets much larger, Medieval 2 Kingdoms, Empire Divided, Age of Charlemagne, The Great War, Divide Et Impera, 1212, 1100, The Third Age... And there are even more that have piqued my interest but haven't had a chance to play.

Aaaah it's such a rich series!

Funnily enough, it’s Heroes 3 for me too.

Eggscellent,

Me too, finally had to uninstall it to get me to do something else.

all-knight-party, do gaming w We all have 'that game'. For me, it's Europa 1400: The Guild. What's your's?
@all-knight-party@fedia.io avatar

Playing Heroes of the Storm vs AI, the Hitman WoA trilogy, Left 4 Dead 2, and Diablo 3 Hardcore. I can always chill on this stuff and know it'll be a good time

sasquash471,

Ahh HOTS, the only MOBA I really enjoyed. To bad it never really took off and Blizz stopped development.

all-knight-party,
@all-knight-party@fedia.io avatar

It's funnily enough part of why I continue to return to it. Competitive games as a service are too much, I dislike having to keep up with an ever inflating hero pool and a constantly changing Meta. I can just enjoy the gameplay polished to a sheen and the natural depth

Razzazzika, do gaming w We all have 'that game'. For me, it's Europa 1400: The Guild. What's your's?

That be Binding of Isaac for me. I have 1000 games installed so it’s even harder to get lost.
