If I were in the mood for an old-fashioned JRPG, which one(s) should I look at/where should I start? Unrelated, is the Long Dark any good/fun?

FakePoet posted:If I were in the mood for an old-fashioned JRPG, which one(s) should I look at/where should I start? Final Fantasy IX Trails in the Sky And yes, yes it is. It's not to my tastes, but if you like survival games and exploring chilly places, the Long Dark is REALLY good at that. e: There might be better old-fashioned jrpgs you could play, or worse ones that are older, but FF9 and TiTs are like, some of the best on steam and they have good ports. Please enjoy them if you haven't!

I am extremely bummed out that Nier wasn't a sale pr. much anywhere. After hearing the Giant Bomb people talk it up so much I really wanted to try it myself.

C-Euro posted:Kind of broke this holiday season but I'd be remiss if I didn't pick up at least one game during a Steam sale. Of the stuff on my wishlist under Hollow Knight is my GOTY and maybe favorite Metroidvania. VtM is one my favorite games of all time I think New Vegas is my favorite Fallout. Of those I haven't played Salt and Sanctuary and straight up did not like Axiom Verge. Everyone around here loves it but the combat blows because enemy AI is to just stand on top of your sprite and every non-boss fight is a frustrating war of attrition.

FakePoet posted:Unrelated, is the Long Dark any good/fun? I'm playing through the story mode and enjoying it. It's very much a survival/exploration game, so maybe watch a gameplay video or two to get an idea of it. It's pretty immersive if you let yourself get into it.

If you have a clogged wishlist, go through it one-by-one. If you're not going to buy it and play it now, remove it. If you've added the game back in 2016, buy it now or remove it. Start the year fresh with a clear wishlist.

It's there for the summer sale, or when you can throw down 60$ or what have you. Go into 2018 expecting it to be filled with really good games. ![]()

Not sure this is the thread to ask since I'm not looking for a deal as such, but: Is there a game that basically has some subset poker/cards/chess/checkers/old-school games with no kind of actual money or national competition or monthly fees or anything? Basically I'm looking to replicate a low-key poker night for friends who're scattered across the country. Something to have going on while talking, that kind of thing. On Steam would be ideal for the friends list, but it's not mandatory.

Captain von Trapp posted:Not sure this is the thread to ask since I'm not looking for a deal as such, but: Actually, running for 10 bucks currently, is Tabletop Simulator - which, by way of the steam workshop (and includes some built in basic games like checkers!), is basically everything you describe. There are also some really fuckin cool DLC for big-boy board games like Scythe, and in the Workshop people have recreated anything from chess to Twilight Imperium. It's a little more complex as its simulating the table with physics and all, but modules can have elaborate control zones and rules enforcement that is pretty much at the discretion of the scenario creator.

Start the year fresh with a clear wishlist. I dunno. Steam is such a mess these days that it feels like wishlists are the only to manage any of it I basically wishlist anything that looks remotely interesting and use it as an alternate storefront

WarpDogs posted:I dunno. Steam is such a mess these days that it feels like wishlists are the only to manage any of it This is basically what I do. If I come across something that seems fairly interesting, but I'm not ready to purchase it (maybe because it hasn't come out yet, is still in pretty early access, or it's just not good timing) I'll wishlist it. It acts more like a "watch"-list at this point. But yeah I agree, with the relentless influx of asset-flips, bargain-bin-tier garbage, and dopey "achievement" games, the odds of organically finding and recalling a decent game on Steam seems to shrink every day.

Every since I filtered out anime and jpg-maker the games got a bit better, now need to refine that somewhat by somehow adding "minecraft garbage graphics" and survival mmo. I am hesitant to also filte out early access. I have never bought a game in ea but some seem promising.

Dead Cells looks rad. For EA I've purchased Battle Brothers and Rise to Ruin that I can think of. Both I made sure I would be ok with the games as-is before I went ahead (though Steam makes the purchase a little riskier because if they gently caress up a game it's not like you can easily go back to a previous build). Is there nowhere on the Steam library page that shows if I can use a controller or not or what genre the game is? I keep having to go to the Store page to find basic info which seems kind of backwards. odiv fucked around with this message at 08:48 on Jan 1, 2018 |

I am hesitant to also filte out early access. I have never bought a game in ea but some seem promising. Frankly Factorio is demonstration enough that Early Access is an entirely voluntary label in cases where it needn't even be one, and Paranautical Activity is demonstration enough that the removal of said label doesn't necessarily mean jack poo poo.

I'm tempted to filter by 'anime' but there are still fringe cases of good games I feel like I'd miss out on. My rule of thumb is if the picture has the 'anime girl blushing face' it's safe to ignore.

Start the year fresh with a clear wishlist. Because of regional pricing, there are a couple of games I've left on my wishlist for close to two years now while I'm waiting for the publishers to realize that charging 4-5x the standard US price for a DISCOUNTED game is a bad idea. Then they drop the prices to an actual reasonable level (which is how I eventually ended up getting most of the Assassin's Creed games) and THEN I decide if I'm gonna buy it or finally give up on it and drop it off my wishlist. That said, my wishlist usually sits between 15-20 games anyway so it's not really out-of-control.

You don't have a proper wishlist until it crashes the steam client of whoever is trying to gift you. Yes, that happened. More than once.

I like trying games and seeing how they play and just having fun with a giant library. I don't expect that I'll love every one of those games but as I pick them up it'll be fun to find out which ones are my jam!

It would definitely be nice to have a seperate list for tracking things you are kind of interested in but not sure if you actually want though. Like a wishlist and a watchlist. Since my family tend to buy me a game off my wishlist on occasion and in some cases have no other way to tell if something is actually maybe good, I just keep mine for things I would not be disappointed to get as a gift.

There was some guy in the Steam thread who had almost 6000 games on their wishlist and it crashes Steam/browser every time they tried to open it.
