Returnal is decent enough, especially for less than 20 bucks. But it's not full-price good.

The KOTOR remake is a psyop until I can press a button and make it go beep on my very own personal computer.

I want to know so bad what kind of vertical slice Aspyr produced that apparently Lucasfilm/Disney were totally fine with but Sony absolutely *hated* Probably not enough live-service game elements lol

I mean, have you seen the slop Disney puts out? They were fine with it because it has Star Wars on its name and can make a few bucks on it. Probably right about Sony, though.

if you like what returnal does, it's easily worth full price. it looks like a AAA game but plays and feels like a good game.

TeaJay posted:My most anticipated game of April 2024 is by far Manor Lords, a city builder / tactical combat game. Out 26.4. So will this lean more towards the city builder side, or is it comparable to Bannerlord? Because I normally do not care for city builders in the slightest, but I love me some Mount & Blade

Hwurmp posted:Has anyone here played Forever Skies? It's cool, and I always love the idea of managing a travelling base in a game, but sadly there's not a lot to it. I felt like I had done everything the game had to offer in like six hours. They added some stuff since then, like more virus stuff, but I didn't feel like that added enough to the game for me to really want to get back into it.

Returnal has great graphics, sound, level design, and was fun to play, until I had to play the first level over and over and then I got bored of it pretty fast. I think it would have worked great as a normal third person shooter, but I am just done with Roguelites I think, and it was Returnal that actually had me stop playing them.

We (me&GF) own a Steam Deck & gaming PC, with the same account on each. If I buy a co op game, can we both play together? One person on each device ColdIronsBound fucked around with this message at 18:05 on Mar 29, 2024 |

Valhalla is a very impressive game. It takes some serious skill to make a game about vikings that aggressively boring. How do you manage to make viking raids boring as hell AND grindy? How do you make a main character so impossibly bland while supposedly being a warrior poet?

ColdIronsBound posted:We (me&GF) own a Steam Deck & gaming PC, with the same account on each. Unlikely, but it depends on the game. If it's using Steam for the accounts, it definitely won't let you play with 'yourself', but if the game has its own account system or simply does not have any accounts at all, it might work if the Deck is in offline mode.

Valhalla had all of AC Odyssey's problems of being a meandering and overlong 100+ RPG but forgot to include the actual RPG part so you can't even make cool builds or funny dialogue choices, everything is running errands for one English failson to the next with no end in sight.

I bought Touhou: Lost Branch of Legend as it popped into my feed. It's a "Slay the spire"-like that's still very much in early access. Game is pretty fun, and lots of super cute artwork (and some ZUN-inspired bad artwork).

I got into the first mandatory fight in Valhalla and then uninstalled the game because it felt like complete rear end to play. It was somehow worse than Odyssey even.

Orv posted:Depends on how you look at it, the original MMO version was dead for several years, then the Korean reboot was around for a bit then also died in I want to say 2017 and it's currently only available as a single-player thing. I loved Hellgate: London when it came out, but my computer at the time really struggled to run it well. I am really surprised to find out there was an MMO version? There was a Korean reboot?? There's a new game coming???

Rinkles posted:will returnal run well enough on a 3060ti? I bought Returnal for Christmas and it ran perfectly at a stable 75fps on my 3060 (non-ti). I've heard that it is a RAM gobbler though; I've got a cool 32gb of DDR5 so I didn't notice anything but there's a lot of Steam reviews about it crashing. May want to keep that in mind Also it's a really cool game! I'm not good at it though

credburn posted:I loved Hellgate: London when it came out, but my computer at the time really struggled to run it well. The original version was an MMO, to be clear. I guess technically you could have bought it and never dealt with any of that at all? As MMOs go it just kind of ended once you completed the campaign and the game got shuttered right after they actually added some endgame stuff. The Korean reboot happened a few years later and they continued to extend the game for a while, though I have never played a ton of the Hanbitsoft version to see everything they added. My very vague understanding is that it was mildly successful but never really took off or anything. Somebody released the full Korean version as a single-player only client on Steam a bit back. From what I know the Korean version mostly sits around the base campaign of the original game so you hop weirdly between the original game and the various added content. Hellgate was never incredible but what little I played was incredibly disjointed and didn't feel great. And now yeah, one of the OG Hellgate producers is the producer on a new Hellgate game and gently caress it I guess, why not.

I thought it was a single-player game with multiplayer capabilities if you wanted, I never realized that was a focus. I never knew anyone else who owned the game and I'm sure not playing with randos.

It was meant to be a 3d diablo 2 type game where you drop in to an instance and can play the level with 3 other randoms if I remember right. The game itself was very laggy at times and also really boring in my opinion. I was so hyped for it too, I went to best buy bought it on launch day and ended up playing for like 2 hours total.

Yeah it was kind of the other early adopter, besides GW1, of a not-MMO MMO. Stations had a bunch of other players around but that was about it at the end of the day.

It's extremely good but be warned that it is pretty drat challenging, ESPECIALLY at first and ESPECIALLY in the full campaign mode. I highly recommend that you play a bit of the Guildmaster mode first before trying the campaign because it actually gives you a much nicer onboarding experience.

Terminally Bored posted:Tuesdays Humble Monthly got leaked Noita is an amazing game, but if you try it and think "this is too hard and utter poo poo", please join the Noita thread before you uninstall. Because that's how I reacted to it until I learned some things and here I am with 1200 hours in it. It's one of those games where you have to die a lot to learn how things work and some of the mechanics are quite obtuse. But man, the way things can interact is insane, and there is a ton of game in there.

StrixNebulosa posted:Is Gloomhaven good? I enjoy tactical rpg combat. The thing is that you'll generally have to move quite a distance on a mission in addition to killing enemies, so the dwindling resources means you're on a time limit from turn 1, so you really want to try and optimize your turns. Gives it kind of a puzzle feeling, but not one where you only have a single solution. You just need to try to make the most efficient use of your turns. The first mission of the original board game is notorious for being a rude awakening of how easy it is to run out of cards.

Hogama posted:Gloomhaven is good but it's very atypical if you go in expecting the usual XCOM action economy. Every character fielded on the board brings their own unique deck of cards (chosen before a mission - there's not too much deckbuilding involved, you'll only be replacing cards as you unlock others, if you want to - deck sizes are fixed per character), and they have access to their entire deck every turn. But you have to pick only two cards per turn (these will also determine turn order by numbers on top of the cards), and use the top half of one (or turn it into a generic attack) and the bottom half of another (or turn it into a generic move). If a character can't play two cards, they have to rest to renew their deck, and resting always burns a card (i.e. removes from the pool for the rest of the mission). Short rest burns a card at random but lets you play that same turn, long rest lets you choose which card to burn and heals the character a bit, but makes them skip a turn. If a character doesn't have two cards left in their deck when they'd need to rest, they're removed from the rest of the mission. (A mission can still be finished with any remaining characters.) Huh, neat. Okay, I might pick this up before the sale ends.
