As long as EVE doesn't put gods in eggs and shake you down for the chance to gamble for them you should be safe. I’ve spent about $10 on gacha games in my entire life and I regretted each of those dollars. I just didn’t get gently caress all for my bucks. I truly cannot understand people who spend lots of money on gacha games and loot boxes. EVE doesn’t gently caress with your brain with loot boxes and poo poo right? If not, just enjoy your Excel Add-On/Space MMO man.

Vegas Stakes for the SNES deserves to be remade as a 90's era casino RPG, so many times, until it is so completely realized that your character has a 6/36 chance of committing suicide after you win the game. I am going to play some Game Boy Golf now.

Speaking of games that need a reboot, Chromehounds was the best Big Robot Shooter from the X360 and no other Robot Builder comes close to how fantastic it was at rewarding clever custom builds in a semi-grounded robot setting. Battletech should have come close but they enjoy their bespoke mech designs too much. No laser swords just vaguely Russian heavy mechs slowly plodding across farms and forests.

Golf Story is fun but I don't think it has much replay value.QuarkJets posted:the loot boxes don't cost you real money, and they scream at you in chat about violating the NAP when you "open" them with your guns I've had an idea for how fun a cyberpunky game would be to have your character get presented with what looks like a cash shop interface for crafting or something and then immediately jailbreak it. doctorfrog posted:Vegas Stakes for the SNES deserves to be remade as a 90's era casino RPG, so many times, until it is so completely realized that your character has a 6/36 chance of committing suicide after you win the game. I sometimes get a hankering for FNV's blackjack and I'd be down for a gambling RPG that allows you to make all manner of virtual bad decisions and end up married by Elvis.

jokes posted:I’ve spent about $10 on gacha games in my entire life and I regretted each of those dollars. I just didn’t get gently caress all for my bucks. I truly cannot understand people who spend lots of money on gacha games and loot boxes. I think it's all just psychology + casino tricks, really. I mean, PaD, as a puzzle-game is really good. It's a fun variant of a bejeweled board that's just fun in and of itself, and they add in a team-building element to allow different play styles and increased challenges. It's just that everything else in the game is ultimately funnelling you towards their casino poo poo, along with the typical income-inequality diorama It's obviously a stupid way to spend money, the odds are against you for purely evil reasons, and it feels really bad to get lovely eggs. It also felt really really good to get a good egg. my stupid brain didn't totally care that egg isn't real, good egg made the good chems come. I swear I read this article(story?) about this person who had an early experimental brain surgery done and had an electrode or something with a button wired to a hunk of brain that would trigger dopamine response. Over a little time they became more and more dependent or demanding of the button to be pressed. At one point getting ahold of it themselves, would just lie in bed barely remembering to eat or use the toilet, just mashing that button until their fingers went raw from constantly loving with the button. I can't find the source for that so maybe it's just some poorly remembered parable about how just because something feels good or makes you happy doesn't make it good or healthy. I also deeply regret each of those dollars I spent but I haven't ever done it again. if im elected secretary of videogame, i will establish an agency to aggressively track down these f2p casino apps and force them to release de-IAP'd versions of their games.

there were DBZ dudes in puzzle and dragons too, in case you wanted one on your team with Noah from the bible, but as an anime girl. the rare saiyan dudes were only in japan version though, NA client was second-class.

I hate gambling, because my brain instinctively tells me "you are going to lose, the money is lost, you are an idiot for participating" so the longest I managed to get through a Gatcha game was like 30 minutes and then Ive never installed another. Mobile gaming is dead to me

I got the same Steam suggestions after playing Doki Doki, though. Titties everywhere. My advice: don't click on the titties that are now everywhere. It's only making things worse.

I think a good way to make the titties go away is buying a random Train Simulator DLC. You might get interested in tractors and farming then, though.

I don't know what you're talking about but Golf Story is completely unrelated to it. It's made basically as a spiritual successor to GBA Mario Golf's story mode, I think.

You guys all seem painfully unaware the Everybody's Golf franchise is a thing. It splits the difference between dour EA Sports realism and Mario Golf's garish oversaturated cartoon landscapes full of screeching Toads for the best possible video game golf experience.

The last Mario Golf actually kinda already split the difference, with mostly realistically portrayed courses in one mode and cartoony Mario themed courses in the other, and product placement from real-world golf gear brands. Remineded of a JB Hi-Fi review saying that obviously a hard working tradie having just finished saving his girlfriend from turtles again goes to unwind on the golf course. I think that might be a very specifically australian thing, mind.
