Fallout 1 and 2 with intelligence set to very low might provide a form of those dialog options. Ain't played 3 or later, so maybe they do too.

Fallout 3 really doesn't do anything fun with dumb player characters, but New Vegas does. Although most of the dialogue is retarded in Fallout 3, so maybe it still counts--heyooooooooo

ShakeZula posted:I forgot to mention it, but I did play and enjoy Yakuza 6, so this is a possibility. How do they compare? Yakuza 6 was the first game built on a brand new engine for the PS4, while Yakuza 0 was something like the 4th or 5th iteration on an engine for the PS3. As such, they are pretty different despite still being similar (due to both being mainline Yakuza games). All the core concepts are the same, I'd just say Yakuza 0 is a little more feature rich while being more limited technically. More mini games, two playable characters, combat is a bit deeper with multiple fighting styles for each character and more heat moves overall, you can carry weapons in your inventory and whip them out whenever instead of having to rely on what's in the area. On the minus side the graphics are a little less impressive and you have loading screens when entering buildings and finishing battles. The substories are just as good if not better than Yakuza 6's, though I guess that comes down to personal opinion. In other words if you like Yakuza 6, definitely get 0. Then maybe Yakuza Kiwami. And Yakuza Kiwami 2 in August.

Worth noting, Yakuza 0 and Kiwami are being ported to PC, in case someone's been thinking "man, that sounds extremely like my poo poo but I don't own a PS4." It'd pobably be wise to hold off until we know if the port is any good, though.

Hey guys, I am looking for a couch co-op racing game on PC, using joypads. No strict preferences, in the past I liked the need for speed games (the ancient ones up to underground 2), motorstorm and burnout but I am willing to try almost anything.

I really liked the whole set up of finding people as you played the main story to build up your home (which you saw the effects of), but in ac3 all it did was just make the numbers go higher. Similar to that was playing Mount and Blade with some mods that allowed you to get a castle and build/recruit more. god dammnit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XWUQfLJiuw4

What are my options if I want something similar to X2/X3, but more accessible? I've played the usual suspects -- Escape Velocity, Endless Sky, Rebel Galaxy, Space Rangers 2 -- but something I missed in all of those was delegation. You can hire wingmates, but X2/3 let you hire entire fleets you can send off to do your bidding, build new space stations, hire transport ships to do supply runs or even act as self-directed free traders with you bankrolling them and taking a cut of the profits, and so forth. It lets you work your way up from "fighter pilot" or "independent courier" to "owner of an interstellar transport and manufacturing conglomerate with a side of mercenaries". Fundamentally, I think, the difference is that X2/3 let you build something while the other games listed merely let you become unstoppably powerful and fantastically rich. The problem is that the UI doesn't scale up with you; it starts out overly complicated and obtuse and deteriorates rapidly as the amount of stuff you're managing goes up. This seriously limits the amount of fun I can extract. So, is there anything like that out there? Astrox: Hostile Space Excavation, Drifter, and Evochron Mercenary look like they have the same issues as Escape Velocity et al. Someone elsenet recommended Starpoint Gemini: Warlords, but I haven't gotten around to playing it yet, and it looks more like a Freelancer-meets-Risk sort of thing, not unlike Space Rangers. What am I missing? Is Egosoft the only developer making games like this?

I could use a cheerful game. Been playing WAY too many dark and serious games lately, and now I could use something lighter for a change, you know? Like a palate cleanser so to speak. I usually prefer action/adventure type games but I've also been on something of an RPG binge. PC Preferred. Any and all recommendations are super welcome. khy fucked around with this message at 03:21 on Jul 2, 2018 |

Check out Evoland 2. It's a genre mashup game (literally, like, there's overhead Zelda, 2D platformer, turn-based strategy, top-down shooter, street fighter segment, etc.) but the majority of gameplay is the Zelda view and it's more of an RPG than anything else. It's a pretty fun little romp, and while it has its serious moments it keeps things light most of the time. For that matter, if you haven't played Ittle Dew or Ittle Dew 2, they're both worth checking out. The first is basically a big series of Zelda-style block puzzles (except actually good and requiring substantial thought), while the second is a lot more action-oriented. If the puzzles don't sound like your kind of thing, you won't be missing anything of importance plotwise if you skip the first. But it's short and IIRC the really tricky puzzles are reserved for people trying to skip nominally-required items. Both have really goofy writing. Uhh...let's see. Sam & Max Season 3 is good. Classic adventure game, reasonably polished. I don't know that I'd call it cheerful necessarily, but it's pretty funny. Yeah, that's all I got.

Papers, please is a hilarious game. Serious reply now: I haven't played them but I think the Divinity Original Sin games are quite light-hearted on top of being good RPG. Then you have the South park games which are OK RPGs. Otherwise if you like (non-action) adventure games, Tales of Borderlands and all the remasters of the LucasArts games are sure bets.

Yoku's Island Express is an extremely chill & relaxing little pinball adventure. It's also gorgeous. I don't usually love pinball, but they keep it pretty easy. I haven't finished Creepy Castle, but from what I've played it's an extremely charming little puzzle/adventure/rpg/warioware game with good writing and cute characters. Lovely Planet doesn't have a story to speak of but is a very fun arcadey first-person shooter with very katamari-damacy-esque visuals and music. Roundabout is just your usual spinning limo simulator, but it's pretty cheerful. Rayman Legends is just an incredible game by any standard but also keeps it very light and easygoing. Sort of a donkey-kongish platformer. Guacamelee is a metroidvania that trades the recently-popular "dark souls but 2d" style for more of a festival feel, and also trades all the guns and weapons for Wrasslin' moves!

This is more of a general recommend ation, but everyone should be aware that EDF 4.1 is on sale for $20 on Steam until the 5th. It's an absolute blast to play in addition to being a goofy as hell pastiche of the old school Japanese giant moster/disaster movies. If you haven't played it yet, you really should correct that.

If you're a South Park fan, either of the two recent games may be a fun diversion. The combat balance isn't the best but if you just want a laugh, and can handle gross humor, I imagine they're pretty cheap these days.

I wouldn't recommend Original Sin 2 for someone who wants to be light-hearted, it's brutal if you like animals at all. So many sad moments. I wasted all my 'resurrect' potions trying to wake up that mama bear, I didn't care. But nothing works, you have to walk away leaving the helpless traumatized cub all alone. And there's that inconsolable dog that just lost it's master, that stuck with me. No way, there's too much darkness that pops up randomly for those to be light-hearted. e - not a bad game, just doesn't fit the request Supreme Allah fucked around with this message at 00:17 on Jul 3, 2018 |
