Ground floor. I think everyone in here should get Demoncrawl because it's the best minesweeper RPG you never knew you wanted.

Divinity Original Sin 2: normally my playstyle in these things is to be thorough and do all quests long before I ever move on but tutorial island gave me a black cat to escort to safety and no way to pick it up or otherwise direct it away from murderous guards so I had the person it was following stand back while the rest of my crew murdered their way to the exit in a direct line and it's safe now. Now I can go back and do stuff.

Anyone in here played the Atelier series? What's the best one to start with? e: From my research it seems to be Sophie due to being cheap + no time limit, but heck, what's the goon-sensus? StrixNebulosa fucked around with this message at 14:27 on Jan 2, 2020 |

Thanks for the info on Ateliers! I'm probably not gonna pick them up immediately as they're not on sale, but I want to shuffle my wishlist right. Also as the sale winds down I keep looking at Disco Elysium. Hmm. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Disco Elysium: I feel like I'm piloting the world's most pathetic, ruined man. Like I am a mecha pilot and I have been handled a giant version of C-3PO. And he's got a hangover. God I'm so glad I don't drink.

Sayonara Wild Hearts reminds me of Gris, in that it goes in heavy on the aesthetic and experience, and if that doesn't work for you, the entire game doesn't work.

So I figured I'd check out the new releases queue for kicks n' giggles and it found something similar to Atelier Sophie and I was intrigued -  woah. Did not know that doing alchemy would let you meet super-ripped men

Divinity Original Sin 2: christ, what a sequence - found a herd of pigs permanently on fire that doesn't hurt them, but does panic them, and we can't help them yet - attacked by a demon and some skeletons in a really tough encounter that made me work for a victory - found a blinded magister panicked by a ruined caravan and he tried to arrest me, then wouldn't let me leave, and I had to kill him despite his obvious panic - immediately afterwards found a scared bear cub that can't find its mom

Ciaphas posted:so this Demoncrawl thing. Roguelike Minesweeper? I obtained a boomerang that explodes cells when used and an item that makes cells explode whenever you use an item. And since the boomerang comes back quick I would just explode my way to victory. The game tried to stop me by giving me a giant bomb that would kill me good in 500 seconds but nothing can stop the boomerang

AfricanBootyShine posted:I think putting it on Spotify is the best medium for it. I don't know if it scales but I feel you'd get more revenue from streams than from the 3 people who bought the dlc on steam. It was a tweet so I can't find it now but I've seen at least one musician post their earnings for a year and it was like, in the ten dollars or lower range. Streaming on spotify funds suuuuuuck

The Atelier Dusk Trilogy is out on steam, and it's the DX edition with all the tweaks and improvements that weren't in the original game. I need to finish Sophie before I pick it up, but as I understand it, the Dusk Trilogy is one of the best starting points for the entire franchise. Each game in the trilogy is mostly standalone, but set in the same slowly dying world. e: Let me be clear about what this game is: Chill item-focused jrpg that is slice of life in a slowly dying world, with a melancholy feel. I've never heard of anything like it. Most apocalypse fiction is about traumatic events or how to rebuild society, not quietly watching the world die.

Irritated Goat posted:Atelier is a series I've always wanted to check out but then panic about which one to start with and then end up buying something else. Repeat endlessly. I've heard Ryza's real good and the Dusk Trilogy is good too. Maybe if I stick it at the top of my wanted list and not deviate. I started with Sophie because it was cheap, has no time limit, and is first of its respective trilogy...and now I'm in love and want more. Hence me being excited about Dusk! Gonna pick it up when I finish up the character events in Sophie and smash the final boss. That said, Dusk has been recommended by the atelier series guide as one of the best starting points, period. It's self-contained, has the best semi-serious plot (still slice of life tho) and while it has a time limit, it's not difficult like the Arland games can be.

 so omg, Recore is literally 3D Megaman. You're a lady exploring a failed(?) space colony planet with her robot dog friend, You shoot robots with charged shots, have a dash, and look for powerups and parts. I'm in love with it already. I know the steam reviews say it involves backtracking and has some other issues, but the intro area was fast and smooth to play and I got to pull robot cores right out of them with a silly tug of war minigame so I'm already hooked.

Sylphosaurus posted:I´ve been hankering for a new ARPG, since Diablo 3 has gone a bit stale for me and I´ve had my eyes on Path of Exile but got intimidated by the atlas that is the skilltree and the giant amount of features in the game. I recommend starting as a barbarian type dude and focusing on hitting hard just to get started. It plays really smoothly.

The funniest/saddest thing about how Steam now makes rare achievements all glowy is that I've got someone on my friendlist who is playing through all of Pathologic 1 and almost all of the achievements are glowy. All of them. No one has ever played Klara's path in the new edition, and I cannot blame them in the slightest.

Fat Samurai posted:Speaking of oils, I have a Cook, Serve, Delicious question: You can't set your keybindings on a "per recipe" basis, right? For example, you can't make the Left key dump deep fried foods into a plate, because it's also the key to chop some fish head off. CSD1: I don't remember CSD2: I believe you could rebind things by recipe. CSD3: uhh... it looks like you can't, though it seems to indicate that you can? I suspect that this is something missing from the game and will be added in the future. e: asking in the discord now hang on "oh, this is CSD3? you go into practice for a food and then when you have the ingredients up, you can press F1 and click to rebind keys" StrixNebulosa fucked around with this message at 16:01 on Feb 3, 2020 |

Orv posted:It's interesting to think about for me, that I really loved nuXCOM but I've bounced off almost every other one that has been made, at least the more direct derivatives including XCOM 2. Sometimes I wonder if I just wasn't that into the whole thing in the first place or what. My gaming preferences have definitely undergone a wild shift in the last year or so but that one keeps puzzling me. Bizarrely enough I've fallen most in love with the original X-COM, but modded with X-Piratez or X-COM Files. The original game got something right that's been very satisfying for me, and hasn't been replicated since. I have hopes for Xenonauts 2 though.
