If anyone has half life 2 and is looking for cool experience I strongly recommend Entropy zero, just played the first one and now gonna play through the second one. I won't lie it's not perfect at times but it's nice breath of fresh air.

[–] Harwood97@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Agreed. The second one is one of my favorite custom campaigns for any game. Very well done I thought.

My friends and I started an "Indie Game Club" which is similar to a book club but for indie video games. It's really helped to branch out and try new things that I wouldn't usually try. And of course, if you finish the game fast enough, you can get back to the one game you have 10000+ hours in. But I'd say probably 1/3 of the games we've played I liked so much that I didn't want to stop playing and go back to my usual and used the whole time to just keep playing. It's been an excellent experience!

Can I interest you in the blog Buried Treasure? The author reviews small and unknown indie games an there are a lot of pearls to be found

[–] BlueLineBae@midwest.social 3 points 1 month ago

Thanks for the suggestion!

[–] yermaw@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

Such a good idea!

[–] IcedRaktajino@startrek.website 18 points 1 month ago (2 children)

^^ Every time I play Skyrim

[–] QuentinCallaghan@sopuli.xyz 9 points 1 month ago

And on Switch this happens every time I play Super Smash Bros Ultimate.

[–] FireRetardant@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Ah yes, lets do an orc warrior build, and focus on one handed weapons and shields. With a side dabbling of stealth archer.

I always start out with a random race, head in the opposite direction of Riverwood, eat everything I can pick up, and just start making and selling potions lol. Then I use the money to buy iron ore and start crafting daggers and selling those. Along the way, I may take a few side quests for extra cash. Then eventually buy or build a house.

By the time I finally go to Riverwood to start the main game, I'm...a fully Daedric-clad stealth archer. Every time. lol. (I don't quite have the patience to level smithing to 100 for dragonbone, so I upgrade that along the way of the main quest).

Stalhrim FTW

I started trying to make rules for my build. I had a few mods to help with it like paying blacksmiths or alchemists to craft for you if that skill wouldn't have made sense for the character.

I tried to pick 1 main combat and 1 side combat of close, ranged, or magic and pick one of the 3 crafting trees. I also tried to walk or take the carriage as often as possible. A mod added more carriage locations and some ferrys. I did dabbled with some realisitic weight and survival mods but i found that stuff too tedious. Although i did like carrying gems over gold as some of them had a better weight to value ratio.

[–] IcedRaktajino@startrek.website 3 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I have yet to play Skyrim with any mods even though I'd really like to. Only thing I have are the DLCs.

Getting it to run under Wine has been challenging enough (though it's a lot easier these days) so I didn't want to even attempt to mix mods into it.

[–] FireRetardant@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Ive just come to accept regular crashes and autosave as often as i can. I consider 1 crash an hour or less to be stable enough

[–] korendian@lemmy.zip 15 points 1 month ago

I usually just end up closing steam and going back to doomscrolling Lemmy/YouTube.

[–] GraniteM@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

I had a quiet night to myself so I thought I'd crack open the copy of Samurai Shodown on my shelf that I've been staring at for a few years. I played some Shodown back in my ZSNES days, I bet I can dust off the old skills!

So anyway, three matches in and the computer has so thoroughly whipped me that I think maybe I could use a slightly more relaxing pace of game.

So I open up the copy of Metal Slug XX on my shelf that I've been staring at for a few years. I played some Metal Slug back in my ZSNES days, I bet I can dust off the old skills!

So anyway, a couple of levels in and the computer has so thoroughly whipped me that I decide to fall back to good ol' Broforce. Nice relaxing Broforce...

I just mesaage a friend to ask if they have time and if they do we play war thunder

[–] Feddinat0r@feddit.org 5 points 1 month ago

And thats okay.

Play, what you want, not what you want to play.

[–] MrQuallzin@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Time for some more Factorio (Or Satisfactory depending on the mood)!

[–] nocturne@slrpnk.net 4 points 1 month ago

No Mans Sky it is!

[–] BigBananaDealer@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

the amount of times ive restarted skyrim is staggering

same with fallout new vegas, but i got bored of that one now

[–] bvoigtlaender@feddit.org 4 points 1 month ago

Wait... is this actually jerma?! where is this from?

[–] theblackpaul@lemmings.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)
[–] C8r9VwDUTeY3ZufQRYvq@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 month ago

That was me for a long time. Now it's guild wars 2.

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Oh hello again Terraria. Plus I just found out that last year they re-released the first "final update" of the game from 2012 as a beta on steam, basically making it easy to play the old content again. So I'm sure I'll give that a go this weekend.

[–] Matthew@midwest.social 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Check out Necesse if ever Terraria isn't scratching the itch

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That looks disturbingly easy to get into, although the first gameplay video I looked up was 4 hours long and the guy spent the majority of it rearranging houses in his town XD

Do you play it?

[–] Matthew@midwest.social 2 points 1 month ago

I picked it up a couple of weeks ago and I have something like 50 hours in it. I felt the similarities to Terraria pretty immediately with all of the trinkets/accessories, the bosses mostly all have a drop per class and stuff like that. When I beat the standard progression I hadn't explored much of the settlement stuff, or potions, or magic or thrown or ranged or summoning. I'm playing as a range focused character now.

I will end up putting too much time into it for sure, but I might still prefer Terraria because I grew up with it.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I just finished Doom 3 after getting it for free on GoG a while back. It's... not terrible really. Not as good as the average Doom game, but not as bad as people made it out to be. The combat is weak, but the atmosphere is great.

[–] DrPop@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I started a new obsession with Total war 3 Kingdoms. There is several mods that basically adds new campaigns with new mechanics so I've just been doing that. I recently completed a campaign that was labelled "very hard". You start out as a vassal state with really strong neighbors who will go to war with you at the drop of a hat. I restarted that campaign like 6 times just to be able to survive the starting situation.

I've tried other Total War games but this one i feel got everything right, from the interface to diplomacy. I tried the forst Warhammer one and Rome and didn't like them. So i got a refund before that ran out.

[–] TofuSpecter@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Ah yes, I will start a new farm on Stardew Valley.

[–] friendly_ghost@beehaw.org 2 points 1 month ago

Don't give yourself carpal tunnel like I did

[–] WagnasT@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Yeah well tamriel rebuilt has new stuff added again so I need to create another character to experience it fresh.

[–] Mycatiskai@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

I just finished every ncpd dispatch in cyberpunk. Now the map is clear of everything. I still want a reason to keep loading into Night City but I'm not sure if I want to do an entire playthrough with a different build.

[–] deacon@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

This resonates, but I just started both Shadow Warrior II and Kingdom Come Deliverance II so now I have a different problem.

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

The Spire sleeps, may ass.

[–] toeblast96@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago
[–] hakase@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 month ago

Yeah I can always stand to put another thousand hours into Monster Hunter World.

[–] Kinokoloko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago

Find a compelling romhack of a game I've already played to death, more like!

Been getting my butt thoroughly handed to me in Super Mario RPG Armageddon...and I'm on the easy mode! But it's also a lot of fun, and a unique way to play one of my all time favorite games
