This was by far the best trailer for the game yet. It really seems to have a lot of ambition compared to most other HD2D games.

There's a lot more info over on gematsu too. Looks like the evil jump rope minigame from FF9 returns...

What’s the biggest “I should’ve played this sooner” game?

Everyone has one game they put off for years that ended up becoming a favorite.

For me it’s persona 5. I heard how good it was but once I played it I was floored and am now going back and playing 3 and excited for 4 remake.

Games about talking (mostly)

31 Upvotes

Doesn’t have to be the focus, just something you do quite often

Ex:
The Yakuza series
I was a Teenage Exocolonist
Most visual novels
Planescape: Torment
Disco Elysium
BG3
Most CRPGS
The Stanley Parable kinda? You don’t talk but your every action is in a sense continuing a conversation.
Shadows of Doubt (only procedural story game I absolutely love)
The Pathologic series

What are some games where you can get nigh game breaking items, or progress really fast by grinding or doing something hard in the early game?

1.3k Upvotes

Fallout 2. Once you get to the world map you can save scum to avoid instant death battles, run all the way south, stealth your way into a Military Base and get game breaking gear right at the beginning. It's a fun way to replay the game on your 50th time.

Star Ocean 2. Behind Cross Castle is a mountain pass you go to later in the game. If you go there when you first get to the Castle, you can eventually fight a group of enemies that is very easy to beat at the beginning of the game. If you grind here long enough, you can get super powered early game.

Absolum is amazing

149 Upvotes

Honestly I got this game on Ps5 after seeing a couple of Reddit threads about it a few weeks ago to play couch co-op with friends, everyone was saying it was amazing.

All I can say is...what a game, this is some of the most fun and one of the most addictive (in a good way) games I've ever played.

It's a Fantasy Beat-em-up roguelike that has some of the most fun combat I've seen in years, the art style and graphics are honestly beautiful all of the hidden secrets, bosses and enemies are such fun, you're rewarded well for each run, the characters are full of life and so varied, you can become super overpowered but also humbled so easily by some of the encounters, I've put 35 hours in and I have met the final boss once and got destroyed.

I've got a couple of saves 2 with different friends and one on my own and my friends are asking me to come round to mine just to play it.

I cannot sing this game's praises enough, if you need a nice, old school beat em up that doesn't overstay it's welcome or get boring at all, it's such a beautifully made game, obviously made with so much love, has a great story I honestly think it's a game that most people should try if you're into this sorta game.

It's the kind of game I know I'll beat my first run eventually and hopefully soon, but I'll want to keep playing over and over and finding out every single secret.

Honestly a 9/10 game for me (if not a 10), and in my top 10 games of all time now.

Also for those who play it I've been maining Galandra as she's my favourite.

I just thought I'd give this game some love as I've not really seen anything about it and there's been a lot of negativity in gaming recently with everything Sony has been doing recently. If you've got a friend and you're looking for a good co-op game to play it's super cheap and I'd recommend it in a heartbeat.

What is the most disappointing boss in any game you've played?

Personal favourite will always be Marauder Shields, but realistically it would be Alduin* (Skyrim). Just felt like a slightly-elevated dragon fight, which was already not a strength of the game.

I miss my ds

I’m a sucker for a phone game but it’s so infuriating having to pay to advance or watch a ton of ads. I miss buying a game and playing it without having to spend anymore on it.

I loved playing Harvest Moon, Sims The Urbz and cooking Mama

I found the SPORE expansion CD on the bookshelf!

Post image
1.0k Upvotes

I feel like it's been a really long time since I used the word "Expansion." I almost mistakenly called the physical package a DLC.

Anyway, this game is the Spore expansion pack, "Creepy & Cute Parts Pack." I don't think there is anyone who doesn't know Spore. It was quite a revolutionary game for me. But I don't know where the original game went. As a Korean, I served in the army, got married, had a child, and moved, and by the time I got there, the original game had vanished somewhere. It's a shame

It is hard to go against the flow of time, but a CD sitting on my bookshelf reminded me of r/gaming, so I decided to upload this.
