Single player is the best.

yes but i do miss co-op gaming.

[–] ekky@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Couch co-op, split-screen, hotseat; Kingdom Two Crowns is nice. So is Darksiders Genesis, For The King, Moon Hunters, Trine, etc.

Always on the lookout for other good co-op couch games, especially with a good story, but I feel that they are few and far between. :(

Brothers, It takes two and A way out.

A way out I really liked.

[–] mino@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

It takes two is absolutely amazing in every aspect.

[–] art@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

It never went away.

And people wonder why I still play Factorio, Parkitect, ATS, or RCT. People suck and being able to ignore them is great.

bruh factorio is literally in active development and has a huge active community, who would even think twice seeing someone playing it.

Please recommend me your favourite story games. This is me and I'm in need of a good 'book.' :)

Edit: I'm going to tell you all to play Night in the Woods. Now, it is set in my home region and felt like a game made for me, but I think it has messages anyone could relate to.

‘Outer wilds’ don’t look it up. The most fun is play ing it for the first time. It doesn’t hold your hand though.

I've read that comment a lot and it makes me feel like there's something big that I might spoil if I ever Google about it. But like I'm a couple dozen hours in at this point... After how many hours of playtime would you say the "don't look it up" advice expires?

Mostly in alphabetical order going down my steam list:

Great stories great games: Tales of Symphonia and Vesperia, The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky trilogy, Metal Gear Solid, 2, and 3, Subnautica, Secret of Mana, Legend of Mana, Chrono Trigger, Hollow Knight, Spec Ops: The Line, A Hat in Time, Hades, Doom, Deus Ex, Eternal Sonata, F.E.A.R., FF6, FF13-2, Nier Replicant & Automata, Sleeping Dogs, Undertale, Valkyria Chronicles (admittedly haven't beaten it though).

Mindless fun simple stories: Ys (almost any of them), My Time at Portia or Sandrock, Resident Evil games, Rune Factory 4 and 5, Harvest Moon 64 and Friends of Mineral Town, Stray, Amnesia, Armored Core 6, Have a Nice Death, I am Setsuna, Life is Strange, Neon White, Cyberpunk 2077.

If you had to twist my arm I'd give you these variations of top recommendations.

Best typical JRPG: Tales of Symphonia

Best Metroidvania: Hollow Knight

Best where choices matter: Undertale

Best fps: Spec Ops: The Line

Best comfy story: My Time at Portia

Best environmental storytelling: Subnautica

Best simple stories in stories: A Hat in Time

Best story with a bajillion endings and things to keep playing for: Nier Automata (play Replicant too!)

Friends don't let friends play League of Legends

Don't care about achievements play games till like 70% then drop them. If it stops being fun I'm done, finishing a game is never a requirement don't have time for that
