First person dungeon crawlers are my jam but Daggerfall absolutely does not hold up. It’d need a total reconceptualization.

I’m playing a fork of Cataclysm DDA called Cataclysm TLG.

it’s like the main project, but cooler and you are hungry. One of the coolest highlights include grabbing and throwing monsters around for a change. Usually it’s the other way around.

anyway here’s the trailer, take a peek.

Lunacid! It’s a short first person dungeon-crawler in which you talk to a skeleton and fight giant snails, medieval manuscript style.

Re: healing specifically, there’s checkpoint based healing and healing spells, but no passive health regen. There’s no downside to just running back to the crystals after each fight, though.

do you like sportsball, but think it needs level ups, perks, and gear? no? Me neither. I absolutely loved Pyre though. When a game dev takes a risk on a weird mashup like 3v3 basketball + Fantasy RPGs + visual novels, it’s an easy way to score points with me. What really cemented this as my favorite was the characters and the emergent interactions that develop as part of your decisions during the Rites. No spoilers, but the game asks you to make hard decisions at every turn of the wheel, and that particular kind of tension and release is very unique in my experience. It’s one of the few games I’ve 100%'d to see every permutation of events.

fuck yeah, lunacid. Newest of the fallen, take up your sword and fight.

Yeah its called skyblivion.

That’s okay, I’m here to yuck someone. Blizzard is a fuck, don’t give them your sub money lol

Sometimes I’ll buy games on sale I have no intention to ever play. Y’know, because of the lingering guilt from the last time I played them but didn’t buy them

The kritzkreig from tf2. It does no damage, it actually does negative damage. But when you hit that switch, oooooo

Hell yeah, F-Zero.

unironically i think this might be it. That horse armor was an ill omen of things to come.

llmao

The Thad maniac illusionist sprints and tags every monster in the dungeon with fury, wabbajacks off, and screams at anyone who gets too close. The results are impressive IMO

I honestly can’t remember, did morrowind have scaling? I remember hitting walls, but not ones that were because I was too high level.

The absolute shit mechanics had some kernels of gold though. I loved my Fortify Strength 100 Jump 100 spell and my 10 chaingun lightning amulets. Very few games let you do properly weird stuff with magic.

Nah, they could just make it smaller instead of filling it with slop

A remaster for the first two wouldn’t be enough, I figure. I played daggerfall unity and it just does not hold up. A full on remake would be interesting, but they’d have to go hard, and reconceptualize a lot.

what the fuck? Gamestop is still around?

I do not allow ads in my life, so I pretty much only hear about films through word of mouth. Didn’t hear a peep about it until now

incredible, you absolutely nailed it mr CEO

Never. There’s no point, it’s not like there are a limited amount of copies that I’ll miss out on if I don’t reserve mine.

yes

gross

Hooray! Time to die horribly!

True. I want a bulky ass phone with more power, more storage, more battery life, and more accessory compatibility. I want a BRICK

It’s not the be~st choice, it’s spacer’s choice!

heh, lemme translate. I lost my save file, so I’m starting over with the key knowledge that fishmen encounters are an effective way to build back up the resources I lost.

Playing the Phantasy Star games for the SMS and the Genesis. I lost my save after getting Noah though and I am big sad. Maybe my friends the affluent Fishmen will help me grind through a bit quicker this time now that I know how great they are for mesetas and xp early on…

i’ve stopped bothering. I saw dredge was free there a little while ago, and that’s a game I want to play. Didn’t even claim it.

lumpytouch actually made those fake game screenshots real? Nice

I’m gonna be booting up Pathologic 2 once my new computer comes in.

its the potato chips of video games. You can even add your own flavors

Dwarf fortress. I am bad at juggling metal and fuel, but I got a set of bronze armor for my soldiers and steel shortswords for every dwarf

and then migrants showed up :)

They’re just making the stadia again???

a few games i pirated earlier in the year, heh, and Pathologic 2, Lunacid (as of a few seconds ago), Roller Coaster Tycoon 2 (to check out the openrct2 mod), dwarf fortress, & Odallus the Dark Call.

Lunacid! I forgot how excited I was for that to come out. Swooping in to snag it now, thanks

I’ve been playing a lot of ZZZ since I haven’t been on my computer for gaming all that much. Can’t recommend it if you can’t stomach gacha mechanics, the energy thing and weekly caps on endgame progression suck. I just enjoyed the main story and the character side stories enough to finish everything and grind up my roster to 50/60.

Wow, really? That shoots it way up on my backlog queue then, I’ve always wanted to play pathologic but 2 games are a bigger ask than just the 1.

finally, it’s time for the Ouya to rise from the ashes and claim its place alongside the switch 2

lol
