Dissenting opinion : ZZZ is actually neat. If you think about it, taking the f2p route, it has a nice and punchy battle system, the writing is quite good even if the story, for now, is quite… standard, I would say. I’m still going through the content, but even if I don’t think I’ll stick with this game forever, 50h of intense brainless fun for free is not something I’ll give an hard pass on.
That being said, yes, nothing beats a labor of love indie game.
Edit : couldn’t agree more with the character design, though. I wish it was less… let’s say… err… more… well, not what it is.
I’m not sure that’s true, but I understand how it could lead to this conclusion. My personal stance on the matter would be : do as you please as long as you don’t harm others.
Yeah, but that’s an interesting thing to talk about I think.
My gf always creates characters looking as closely as possible to her. I do the exact opposite. What’s funny is that… she lacks self confidence and I do not. So it’s not about that. I suppose it’s something else that determines us that way. I have an idea, but I wanted others opinions.
Well, it depends. I’d skip games I’m mildly interested in, yes. And yes, it means most games. Well strangely enough it may depend on the game, LoL or other MOBAs, for example, I don’t mind the gender of my character.
But yes, I may have in common with those people the tendency to skip some games, but it stops here. The main difference being I’m not going to annoy anyone or cry on steam boards because of my personal preferences.
Empyrion (you love sandbox games with endless content with very little guidance? Try it, I’m on HWS RE server and after 260h I’m still just scratching the surface)
Marvel Midnight Suns (top notch on many levels)
Chrono Ark (one of the best roguelite deck builders for me)
The scroll of Taiwu (perfect cultivation sandbox RPG, official translation should come in 2024)
Worst : Not much… I just don’t understand why I can’t get into Thea 2. It’s supposed to kinda be my dream game. Yet, I’m always bored after 30 min.
Shoutout to Archmage Rises. It has a long way to go but it could possibly be my GOTY 2024.
