Yep. Yep. Got me good.

I’m leaving a note here to come back and check when not on mobile, unfortunately just doesn’t work.

I agree with the other reply. But as a fair warning, I’m not someone who really got sucked into Stardew. That being said, I think Mistria is much better. The characters are all fantastic and fun, the magic system is nice, and I love the museum / collections like Animal Crossing.

I haven’t played this update yet, but I’ve really enjoyed the time that I have sunk into the game.

It’s not a car racing game, but SSX 3 had such a great soundtrack. It’s hard to find nowadays.

I played the demo and gosh this is a difficult game. Good fun though

Bring back Army of Two lol

Tagging onto this. Has anyone tried to play Glover recently? That used to be one of my favorites as a kid and I keep thinking about emulating it.

I’m so glad Tiny Glade is getting some attention and is even on this list at all. That’s amazing.

The Spell Brigade. It’s unfortunately early access, but it’s an up-to-4 player co-op Survivors-type game. I love Vampire Survivors so of course I wanna play co-op. I’ve been having a bunch of fun with it, both with friends and without.

I also wanted to mention Fields of Mistria. I don’t really like Stardew Valley very much, but this one is really pulling me in for whatever reason. It’s still early access, but it’s got a bunch of QoL improvements from Stardew and the characters are really fun.

Just picked up a game called Hellcard that is basically co-op Slay the Spire. It’s a lot of fun and the look of the game is really unique, I think. I really love StS so being able to co-op basically the same thing is a ton of fun.

• SOMA
• DUSKERS

I agree with your others

Oh nice, thanks! Sounds like fun

Nice! Thanks for the depth. I think with the level adjustments especially, it sounds like I would enjoy it. Thanks!

For someone who doesn’t like the typical pokemon grind, would you recommend this one?

I’m not sure how old old is, but SOMA is always such a delight to play through.

Another somewhat older game is Duskers where you control drones one empty human ships, trying to find out where humans went.

I was coming here to reply SSX 3 :)

I’ve had it for a while but finally it dug it’s claws in - Tunic!

Apparently this is a devisive little game. I absolutely adore it and think the combat difficulty is just about perfect while the puzzle solving and the exploration is masterclass levels of design. The show, don’t tell approach is used so perfectly here. Ah I love it

I love this game so much. It’s so chill but also blood boiling lol

That’s what I came here to say as well. It’s so well done and it hits in such a profound way.

Have you read any of the short stories on the game’s website? I highly recommend it. Catherine’s is so sad and it really gives a ton of insight into what she went through.

What is it about the Long Dark that’s stuck with you?

I actually want them to step away from 5e/DnD in general. I loved DOS2, but I agree with another commenter that the vast swaths of elements made things challenging in a frustrating way at times. Not that that shouldn’t be a tactic to be used, but it definitely was egregious in DOS2.

5E is just… A fuckin mess when it comes to balancing the game - said as a long time DM and player. There are so many things that just irritate the heck out of me with the system that can’t necessarily be balanced with a video game slapped overtop of it. (Not to say Larian didn’t do a good job with what they were given, but still)

That being said, I am a total fanboy of Pathfinder 2e and the way things are balanced there, and I would love love love to see a CRPG under those rules. Especially if it was Larian-levels.

Man hook hand car door?!

It’s interesting how experiences can vary. I just returned it because I wasn’t enjoying it, which was a shame because it looks great.

What makes it fun for you?
