StrixNebulosa posted:Killing Floor seems to be like Left 4 Dead in that it's almost multiplayer or co-op required? So I've been avoiding them both. Yeah, instead of going from A to B, you are fighting against X amount of waves + a boss. Not very fun as a solo.

iSurrender posted:I've heard ok things about Graveyard Keeper. Graveyard Keeper is decent, but has some questionable content (in one story mission you sell beer and burgers while "witches" are burned alive). It's weird because most of the game is quite good-natured, despite the macabre setting. The game is also pretty cryptic in some parts, if you don't use guides.

Hughmoris posted:Could someone recommend a PC game for my 65 year old family member? She just started gaming recently. I'm pretty sure she has maxed out Stardew Valley. She's having a lot of fun in World of Warcraft as well (although running around in-doors will make her dizzy and she is a clicker). Steam has Doraemon Story of the Seasons which is by Harvest Moon guys and therefore pretty much Stardew Valley. Pretty pricey though. https://store.steampowered.com/app/965230/DORAEMON__STORY_OF_SEASONS/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBMQtMoNF6Y&t=32s

Guacamelee (both) are pretty fun and quite merciful, since only one player needs to survive the platforming parts and others can join the beat em ups. Broforce is simple stupid fun as well.

Recettear is a fun game, but the market prices aren't really simulated (other than "random item x is today hot/cold" and "happy customers are willing to spend more"). Offworld Trading Company has real dynamic prices with every resource becoming cheaper/more expensive based on the supply. It's a bit boring as a single player though.

Ulio posted:Any games where you start at the bottom or top of a place and you have to make your way through the opposite way? If anyone played Ys Origins it's like that, you start at a bottom of a demonic tower and have to go through every floor till the top to finish the game. The Deadly Tower of Monsters is maybe the best example of that concept I've seen. The game area is a huge handcrafted tower that you keep climbing up for ~four hours. All areas are connected and it takes about two minutes to freefall from the top to the ground level. The gameplay is... passable. Good enough, but nothing special. The writing tries to be funny, but at least it's not as bad as most "comedy" games.

Galick posted:So I have an odd itch: I want sort of a management sim where you control or direct minions to gather resources, craft things out of the resources, sell or use those things, and continue expanding. Factorio didn't hit the itch for me due to the logistics robots coming so late, and Graveyard Keeper makes the zombies too fiddly to use. I could use modded Minecraft I guess, but is there a game dedicated to specifically minions doing my work? Autonauts is in this month's Humble Choice. Based on my first few hours with it, it's pretty fun, but the UI isn't as good as it should be. Kennel fucked around with this message at 10:56 on Oct 13, 2020 |

Manager Hoyden posted:Kind of a broad ask, but I'm looking for games that feel like the world exists with or without the player and you're not supposed to be there. It's a hard feeling to describe but I guess what I'm getting at is the game feels like it is about the world itself and the player is just an unwelcome intruder. Consortium. I only played for an hour, because it crashed, but you are thrown in the middle of a strange crisis situation and can either lie that you know what you are doing, or tell everyone that you are somehow bodyswapped in to this character you are now controlling. Seemed pretty cool, I should try again.

Chamale posted:Are there any open-world games where the player's actions have a permanent impact on the map? Other than Minecraft, Death Stranding, and Red Faction Guerilla. Would Just Cause fit the bill? Just Causes are quite fun. Your impact on the map is pretty minor (destroyed target buildings stay down), but that's true for Red Faction as well (e. or did all Red Faction buildings respawn? At least the bridges do, right?)

Nice thing about wrestling games is that you can then make those 20 werewolf hunters fight each other in ai control. In addition to Fire Pro, there's WWE games which are pretty bad as games, but their character creators are really nice (ignore Battlegrounds).

Play posted:I'd like to ask people to recommend 2D platforming/action/etc. games, preferably with pixel graphics, and ones that I've never heard of, but how would you all know what I've heard of? And I've heard of quite a bit I think but the itch is never fully scratched. Basically the more obscure the better and it must be on PC, if any fool wants to take on the challenge. I liked Wildfire quite a lot. It's pretty fast paced stealth platformer with decent amount of content.

sad question posted:What are some recent good platforming games for PC? The last one I got into was Rayman Legends. I'm eyeing Monster Boy since it's on sale on steam and looks p good. Did Yooka Laylee turn out decent? Yooka Laylee and the Impossible Lair (2D platformer, NOT the kickstarter game) is really good. I usually don't like platforming games all that much, but that one was genuinely enjoyable. The last level is pretty huge jump in difficulty, but at least they added checkpoints. Trine 4 was also nice. Probably the best of the series (playing the older games is not required).

Tagra posted:In the same vein, is there anything other than Dishonored that meets the criteria for a modern "Thief-like"? Like not stealth combat, just stealth exploration and sneaky sneaky stealy steals. I played Styx: Master of Shadows earlier this year and it was ok. Combat against more than one opponent is almost certain death. The sequel appears to be an improvement, but I haven't played that.

RPATDO_LAMD posted:Guacamelee 1 & 2 are on switch. They're real fun and they support couch co-op. There is a lot of platforming in between the beating up monsters though and some of it gets pretty tricky. I don't remember which I played in co-op (it works probably same in both), but only one player has to survive and others can fly around as a ghost and respawn at will, so even the tricky parts aren't too bad with kids.

No Dignity posted:Are there any high quality classical platformers I could pick up in the Steam Sale? Not a metroidvania, not an extreme suffering & systems mastery game, not storygame just using platforming as its medium or a puzzle platformer, just like a Mario style game with good running and jumping and enough difficulty to stimulating? I really liked Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair (difficulty jumps wildly at the titular final level, but otherwise it's reasonably chill) Sonic Generations is a solid Sonic game (50% 2d levels) Raymans are pretty decent

FutureCop posted:Anyone have recommendations for cool and big FPS adventures like Half-Life 1 or 2? Was recently watching Woolie play Half-Life 2 and realized I haven't played something like that in awhile: lately when it comes to FPS games it's been a long line of more xtreme boomer shooters like Turbo Overkill and while I love those, there's something about the big ol' adventure of Half-Life with set-pieces, puzzles, exploration, and good shooting that appeals to me. I feel like I've already played most of the likely suggestions of the Metro series, FEAR 1+2, Prey, Wolfenstein New Order and Old Blood, and so on, but maybe I'm missing something obvious, or there are some good unknown ones. Titanfall 2 is the answer.

While I don't necessarily agree all design choices with XCOM Chimera Squad, it's neat to have an XCOM game where you can focus only on the tactical battles and the home base strategy doesn't matter all that much (you have choices, but they can't really ruin your campaign). It's also different enough to make it worth playing even if it's not as good as the main series.
