I remember showing Ocarina to my dad and excitedly telling him it’s the peak of gaming and nothing would ever beat it’s graphics! Think I completed the game in 26hrs non-stop without sleep.
I’ve seen it since and it’s so blocky I struggle to see how I ever liked it. So I will appreciate the memories instead. :)
The N64 controller is my favourite ever controller. Bizarre shape but I had so many hours racked up on it in my teens that it holds a special place in my heart.
Which Roguelikes do you like? I’m the same - hate them all for being overly difficult. Except original ADOM which I played constantly.
I’ve found games like that too filled with super serious gamers. DoTA is the same but the community is a bit friendlier.
I have ZERO patience so I’ll just storm ahead into battle and try to fuck things up but that’s not a great way to play cos you keep dying and lose time on the board. I tried to get into Heroes of the Storm when it started and the more casual players were a lot more fun but over time it developed the usual crowd of hardcore addicts that ruined it.
I’m shocked to see you put this in the same breath as the others. I found the story SO in-depth and fascinating that I spent hours just reading lore on the fan wikis. Loved that game but the second one stripped a lot of the lore out and made it more mindless.
Never liked GTA games. I find them very repetitive and boring. However, I fucking LOVE Saints Row 4 which I think of as comedy-GTA. Had so much fun pissing around doing insane shit on SR. It’s a shame the franchise died.
I tried to get into that game so many times but it was such a bloody slog!!! I’ve since found Torchlight I & II scratched that simple dungeony-DnD-ish itch.
I fucking HATE Souls-like games. I love fantasy and RPG games but FromSoft games are just hard for the sake of being hard.
I’m an adult with a life (kinda) - I don’t have 600hrs to dedicate to defeating the fucking Taurus Demon. I even looked up HOW to kill it but apparently my controller usage wasn’t good enough to move at speed even though I completed God of War 3 on the highest difficulty.
The fact I had to re-tread the same stupid fucking area before that to reach the fucking Taurus Cunt was to much.
I quit the game and vowed to never play another FromSoft game or anything that claimed to be a “Souls-like”.
I stupidly listened to someone say Sekiro was a better game than Ghost of Tsushima (which I love). So I played it…
WTF?! The first group of enemies were all identical - no variations. There was also only TWO fucking moves I could perform. A wooden-looking block and a janky looking attack. An absolute fucking abortion of a game and I’m convinced the idiot who told me it was better than GoT had never played it.
I’d love a nice simple zippo like this. Fire is what makes us human so I’ve always felt a deep connection to it. It wouldn’t just be useful for so many things it’d also be great to fiddle with, whip out light it flip back and pocket. I also love the smell.
