I like Halls of Torment
The factory must grow
Top three are: The First Descendant, Elder Scrolls Online, and just started Lords Of The Fallen (which is pretty tough TBH).
I was very very hesitant on ESO. But it’s probably the best Elder Scrolls game we’ll get. Playing with friends is a blast, as well as wondering around doing random quests in each “country”.
I tried it out because I love the setting and we’ve obviously been somewhat starved for anything else Elder Scrolls, but I just couldn’t get into it. It felt like it never rewarded me for exploring like the main series does. There’s never something cool to find that’s just hidden out of the way.
I did also feel a bit miffed that the Northern Elsweyr story (the new one when I played, and the reason I wanted to play) was just the Skyrim civil war again, but without even the interesting idea of the rebel faction being nationalists against an empire. It was very little to do with anything about Elsweyr, and then dragons became the focal point again anyway
Obviously each to their own. I do see the appeal of it. It’s just not for me
I’m actually a new’ish gamer. I did a little Final Fantasy 14 but didn’t get into it. I read about this a little and decided to give it a try (it helped it was on a massive sale on the PlayStation store). This will be the game I will probably be playing for a really long time.
The random quests and wandering around are the best parts IMO. It amazes me how much time I can waste walking around going "what’s behind that building (or rock, or hill, etc.).
Mostly Spyro (the PSX one) and both versions of Cyberpunk 2077. Alternatively Muse Dash if I don’t have much time (or will) to go for a longer session.
I respect the love of a PSX game, thumbs up.
What do you mean by both versions of 2077?
I really like checking out oldies in their original form, even if there’s a “better” remake/remaster available. It’s fun to see what those games had to offer in their prime.
As for Cyberpunk, I’m playing both the most up to date version (2.13 with Phantom Liberty + mods) and the legacy one (version 1.16).
There were a lot of gameplay and design changes in the 2.0 release. Since I played the game before that, I had a constant reaction of some things being… off. I wasn’t sure whether my mixed feelings had to do with nostalgia or if I really liked some of the old gameplay more, so I decided to reinstall the legacy version to confirm (thanks CDPR for keeping it available).
Long story short, while I do like some of the things they did with the game and genuinely believe it’s a better product overall, I’d be lying if I said I prefer the new version. I still have fun and all the technical improvements, free content and access to mods make for an easy choice but boy do I wish there was a way to port those to the legacy version. There are a few mods that restore some of the old design choices which gives me a sliver of hope for a potential larger restoration in the future. For now though, I’ll just keep enjoying what’s there.
Sounds like how I view No Mans Sky. Im one of the wierdos that really enjoyed how alone and wierd the game used to be.
You hide cards at night in the forest for fun? Seems like a solitary type of game to play.
Hehe you’re right kinda.
I take my phone data offline after about midnight and if I can’t sleep I’ll do Solitaire or crosswords.
If I’m really wanting a good game, Zen Pinball is my poison. One day I plan to get an old TV and turn it into a Zen Pinball machine, as others have done on YouTube.
Pinball games are fun. Ive tried everyone on the Switch, and a few on Steam, but they all seem to lack something.
Finding a decent pool table game is the same.
