Disco Elysium is good but gets way to high of its own farts way to often. Much like the people who heap endless praise on it.

i don't want to play any game where it's overhead and the cursor turns into a sword when you click to attack on someone or worse, you click on a picture of a sword in the UI bar at the bottom of your screen, so your cursor turns into a sword so you can click

I get that here, on this forum, it's definitely overbearing the amount of praise it gets, but I feel like that's just because it's funny and well written, and this is a forum of people that were brought together by funny well-written articles. This post is the Rick and Morty of posts.

I want an endless 3rd person hack and slash co-op dungeon crawler with satisfying combat and physics-based traps that are good enough to make it fun to watch your buddy get ragdolled and that are routinely updated and expanded to keep it fresh and unpredictable I am fully okay with this also having waves of skeletons

It should have guns or bows & arrows but you gotta hit the bones otherwise the projectile sails through.

i want a Dynasty Warriors game where you kill endless waves of mooks, but instead really shallow characters there is a super complex nerd-bait character building and loot system. like Path of Exile or Slay the Spire or whatever + Dynasty Warriors make it happen indy developers. i bought all your other rogue-likes, you know im good for it

Are there any co-op games where you level up unique / asymmetric abilities (you know, like warrior skills vs mage skills etc) that don't have violence in them? There are no board games that fit that description (it comes close, but, never quite). It seems odd to me that no one has 'reallllly' cracked the "generic style of game you can fit loads of different themes around" that isn't about violence. I'm not against violence at all, it's just there are some people I know who are put off by it that I'd like to board game with, and it struck me as odd how limited it is?

Nah, you don't level up unique abilities. Pandemic is definitely the closest, and I think Pandemic legacy probably comes 'real' close, but it's still not quite there. Pandemic is actually kinda far away from what I'm after too, because it suffers more than any other game from quarterbacking. Like, Spirit Island is super close, despite obviously having lots of violence, because it could easily be rethemed to be just spooking people off. (appreciate one of them already does that, but you know).

exquisite tea posted:For me it's the disconnect between how people say Disco Elysium was so affecting and powerfully written, it made them cry so emotional, and then the screenshots people post of the actual game are some truly groan-worthy CSPAM caliber humor. Most of the screenshots are gonna be completely out of context and usually deliberately chosen to be so for comedy purposes.

I've seen several game sites talk about how awesome Astro's Playroom for the PS5 is. I guess it's the only real new game they've got for it right now. But the stuff I've seen just looks like Mario Odyssey plus playstation references minus interesting gameplay elements. I guess the graphics are good but honestly the returns on better graphics have pretty much fully diminished for me at this point so I don't really care.

I haven't finished my first playthrough because well there's not much incentive to but it's fun and filled with fun moments and maybe I should take off the fart mask and just plunge into it I played sober cop with zero initiative and it was fun (?) to watch him die from kicking a box or lacking the volition to suck air That's a good cop Maybe next time I'll play hosed up cop and be mean to the kid and find a bunch more ways to die It's an all right game I mean honestly if I spin this up again and the game itself tells me yo this can't be played it's too much effort I'd believe it

ikanreed posted:A phoenix wright type game where you do nothing but represent awful people in divorce court would be fun i've spent an unnatural amount of my life in divorce court. divorce court sucks. imagine playing papers please, but you are a paralegal, and your job is to take a decades worth of financial papers that are in some random loving box, and you're supposed to put them in order in an excel spreadsheet, while looking for "suspicious" purposes. or say you're given an encase image of a hard drive and you need to find where all the pornography on the hard drive came from and whether the photos are of people that are of age, and whether the child pornography on the hard drive was acquired legitimately or placed by the wife so that she could do better in the divorce. i can't fathom gamifying the experience. everyone you meet is going through the worst time in their entire life and are absolutely awful.

i thought among us was fun to play for a while but it gets really boring when your group gets a bit too good at the game and you have to turn down all kinds of settings to make it not impossible for the impostors

If you fail as a lawyer you end up in something called "doc review." Imagine spending x years in law school, and then your vocation becomes "sit in front of computer, read document, and press button onscreen indicating if document is relevant, or not relevant." That is becoming a modern lawyer, the game. In phoenix wright, there's an uplifting theme - don't make up evidence, believe in the truth, etc. It's something of a send-up of the criminal justice center. The only themes I can think of for "family court attorney" the game are "don't ever get married, if you do, don't even get divorced, hell is other people."
