One time i prank called a bear buildin workshop and said I wanted my mamaws ashes put in a teddy from where she loved them things so well... The woman on the phone did not skip a beat. She just said, "Brang her on down here. We've did it before."

Start a seasonal necromancer, choose Command Skeletons and Skeletal Mage and Revive.

This is pretty funny. So is Littlewood similar to Stardew Valley but building a town up instead of your farm? It looks charming and chill, especially if there is no combat.

That TMNT game looks rad. I hope it's great!

I picked up Blaster Master Zero, which is pretty fun. I always wanted to like the original Blaster Master, but never really did. This one has some nice quality of life features, and (so far) succeeds in making it into a fun game.

I've only played a bit but it seems like that's generally the idea. I find it quite charming so far, especially because it has the mechanic where time only advances when you take an action, which makes it about 60% chiller than comparable games in the already generally chill genre

I'd love to see a Mario's Picross S or similar although honestly I don't think Jupiter could put out Picross game that I wouldn't buy immediately regardless of what IP it's based on lol.

Same, I bought the Overlord Picross game despite knowing absolutely nothing about Overlord. I had at least heard of and was vaguely familiar with Kemono Friends before I bought that Picross game.

Give us Kamen Rider Picross.

As has been said, it's very chill. I have it on PC and will be getting it on Switch, as well. I'm in love with the "time advances when you do stuff" mechanic, because the ticking clock makes Stardew a little stressful for me in the beginning stages.

Yeah I felt a little weird saying it because I really enjoy Stardew Valley (and Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons/Rune Factory etc) for chilling out but, especially these days, sometimes I'm too broke brained for even the slightest time pressure or stress and Littlewood fits that perfect little niche

I would argue it's closer to Animal Crossing than Stardew in terms of activities and terraforming/interior decorating.

Stamina = time spent is the best innovation to the genre ever, and there's a dedicated menu button to return to your home no matter where you are so you don't accidentally use your last sliver and pass out.

I only picked it up a few weeks ago and it's disgusting how many play hours I have already. I think I already put more time into it than Hades and it's gonna overtake botw for top time played in a few more weeks I think. It's so stupid and pointless but it feels amazing to mow down dudes in the pursuit of slightly more efficient gear to mow down more dudes faster. I haven't played a Diablo game since 1s heydey and it honestly hasn't changed that much but it's very polished.

If anyone needs a power level or wants to do some rifts, add me, it seems to work ok with people on other region servers.

I have it for the PS4, (and it originally came out as a cross-gen title); it's very well optimized for controllers, moreso than Torchlight.

I haven't played it docked much but it seemed ok wrt text size and space allocation, I think they just meant it runs incredibly well even when the screen is busy with effects, I'm running a wizard right now and I can't imagine it getting busier and there's been zero slowdown. I haven't noticed any touch screen integration at all

I primarily play in handheld. It runs great on the TV as well though I've hardly played it that way. Just my preference. I never used the touch screen and didn't know D3 had touch controls tbh.

I really liked my time with ff7 and I’ve been missing a Persona. Are those Digimon Cyber Sleuth games a decent enough jrpg? I haven’t played a lot of em.

Unless Pokémon games count. the last one I played was Y and it was a little plain.

One bullet. One gun. Six Chambers. These are my friends.
If anyone's curious why people think Diablo 3 plays better on a controller, one huge improvement is the addition of an evade button. Your character gets to roll out of danger immediately in whichever direction you flick the right stick, which they can't do in the PC version. It also breaks barrels Dark Souls-style.

Targeting and inventory management feel better than you'd think as well, but for me the evade is the main thing.
