i'd buy the 30 fps one because "this will probably run better on my garbage pc"

Both games will probably run the same at 30 fps. It's just that one can also run at 60 fps. It's not like games that run at 60 fps require more resources just for potential frames when run at 30 fps.

The first time I realized the difference between 30 FPS and 60 FPS was a teenager when I first got a PS2 and went from a marathon of Kingdom Hearts to Ratchet & Clank and it suddenly clicked that they looked different. It was a pretty cool moment, and I enjoyed both games immensely.

Also when I played Lego Island as a kid my computer was such a shitbox that the framerate was in the single-digits, so up until a few years ago I thought it was a game like Myst rather than a fully real-time 3d environment.

It's really fun, and it's the rare RPG that instead of being a zillion hours long is fairly short but hugely replayable.

it's okay. Massively over-rated, but still does some interesting things

if you want to get an idea if you'll like it the demo is not unrepresentative

its a cute story with replayability but no its just people high on feels that are calling it the best thing ever. its a quality indie game but if it changes your life your life was probably pretty crappy to begin with. i laughed a fair bit though.

Order devs posted:

CVG: So of the three key aspects of a game - visuals, gameplay and story - which would you say was your priority with The Order 1886?

Game director (Dana Jan): I think story and visuals are very high. Gameplay is something that... it's a game, we make games, we can't get around it. We love games, but we also love telling stories, so I think story is always going to be at the top because it's what we start with. It's at the top of the pyramid and everything else supports that. I think it'd be more challenging to make a game for the gameplay's sake, then try to make a story that fits in there.

I think if you go into the game expecting it to be as good as people say it is, you're going to be disappointed. It's a pretty drat good game though and if you go in without the hype I think you might enjoy it.

binding of issac, rogue legacy, crypt of the necrodancer, galak z, are all good to very good.
only rogue legacy is an action platformer like spelunky though and spelunky is way better platformer than it. (RL's draw is upgrading your family's resources to get stronger but has some slow and basic play mechanics when you go on a run)



There's Super House of Dead Ninjas too, which is very fast (like Sonic Rush 'what the gently caress even killed me?' fast) and deliciously crunchy but doesn't have much roguelikelike potential for emergent shenanigans for the simple reason that in most cases you're three screens down by the time the bomb you knocked out of someone's hands actually explodes. It went for two whole bucks in the Adult Swim Games sale the other day and it's worth at least twice that. You'll need a D-pad you can trust with your life though.

turns out one of the few things I killed was one of the really crucial ones who tells you that a second playthrough might yield something different

Yes, it probably has something to do with the fact that my face doesn't look like any sort of arse. In fact, when people look at my face, they often comment how much it doesn't resemble an arse in any possible manner. And I know they are not just being charitable, I took an online test which confirmed it with 100% certainty.
