You’re right, 20fps and low polycount is just fine. You still on a 360p CRT too?
It"s an $8 purchase that can quadruple your framerate, and at the very least, hides dips from any games. Sure, little use in turn-based games and point and clicks… but for everythong else, smoothness looks and feels better.
Not sure you’d like it them. It’s basically Dark Souls at the start, then it becomes much crazier like DmC without a jump button. You start by getting destroyed by any enemy, then YOU become the monster they should run away from. Amazing powertrip for the record.
Then, mix in some spells (slow casting, no spam), Diablo/Grim Dawn loot (best I have seen in a non-arpg), and endless content and variety.
It’s combat system is very good and much deeper than Souls, especially with the Ki Pulse - kind of a manual stamina recharge button the squeeze in between attacks, on block, etc. Ads a nice dance to the combat.
So… can you name a few games you did enjoy? It’s so good, make sure you don’t overlook it.
No Rest for the Wicked
It’s better than I expected, but since it’s not really an arpg (PoE, LE, GD, etc.) or a crazy action game either, I’m starting to wonder why I would keep playing it over my beloved Nioh 2. I guess the amazing visuals, neat base building and slight verticality are a plus, but if I look at the combat alone, it’s very good and fun, but I hear Nioh 2 calling.
WAY better game that I expected tho, revoews have not been kind to it in the past.
Yeah, reading Steam discussions ruined my day. Just full of racism under the vale of wokeness… Those fuckin’ “Is this game woke?” threads we see everywhere these days might as well be “Does this game have any non-white male characters?”
They are worst that the stupid asses calling for characters to have a gender option in games with a story. I mean, anyone here didn’t enjoy Die Hard because they could not relate to John’s gender or sexuality during all those fun action scenes?
Now, on a totally unrelated topic:
Looking to buy this game, but I wanna know before giving them any money; do the devs prefer a penis or clit in their mouth?
You are not wrong about bots, but by deep gunplay, I mean gun mechanics, like planetside 2’s or CS.
Things like this:
I enjoyed 2 and Wonderland tbh (I return to it often actually) but I’m hoping for something more realistic, impactful, violent. Locational damage, recoil control and headshots vs bulletsponges. That said, I like the rng weapons a lot and jumping around shooting monsters, like I do in SW2.
Just looking for something else here :)

It’s top down Noita, or BoI+Noita. I have 1k hours and am still discovering new effects and combinations every run, it’s nuts!
Pro tip: I wanted to milk it for all its got, so after reaching endgame content, I started a new toon and limited myself to 2 wands and no upgrades to life mana, starting stuff like keys or coins. Just “tentacle girl” updates and it’s been really good. I die because of mistakes, not because of balance. Otherwise, you’ll get a bit too strong and steamroll every enemy and boss at some point (100 hours in or so).
Striving for Light. It’s the only real hybrid I have found between an arpg and a roguelite. A bite-sized PoE if you will.
Otherwise, in more or less the same genre, Magicraft (my GOTY 2024) and a tiny bit of Hellclock, tho it has yet to hook me because so far it’s boringly easy - I’m still very early in the game.
I tried it when it was free, and had a hard time climbing the wall in the tutotial because full stamina was JUST enough to make it. If I was asked why I put it down after an hour, that would have been up my list.
I get stamina and sometimes think it makes the game better, but in a parkour fantasy, IDK, surely didn’t make it more fun for me.
It’s so good I stopped playing half way and installed mods to make it harder, imposed some self-restrictions and made it work in VR (Vorpx) so that I can be fully immersed in the experience, reading all the logs which I never do in games and try to milk every bit of this masterpiece. I have not finished it yet, but it’s still the best game ever made in my book.
And to think I took like 4 years to buy it and thought the trailers made it look boring as hell - I was new to immsims back then…
I’ll say it again: masterpiece.
Fake frames, as opposed to the real life pictures other frames are…
You remind me of people who kept posting that the human eye can’t see frames past 30. Where are they now lol Oh that’s right; they’re right here!
Mark my words: you will use frame generation someday and you will not come back. Maybe from a future nvidia feature (eg DLSS), maybe from a monitor, in VR (been a thing for a while but it’s not good yet). You will like it.
