What's the best Final Fantasy Game?

@eggie III DS, hands down.

I've always been partial to IV, and X but that's probably because they were my first two lol.

eggie,

What's a smaller or indie game you think everyone should play?

buycurious,

Bastion (2011).

It was a fun game and the announcer really made it interesting as you played through it.

It’s currently $2.99 on Steam.

Rusted Warfare is a good and cheap mobile game. No ads, otp, and it has LAN/WAN connections (not the most user friendly)

Rain World used to be a small game. Its rising in popularity now but is all around amazing. It doesn’t offer the most guidance but is extremely rewarding for those who stick with it.

And a classic is Castle Crashers if that happens to be before your time or you never got the chance to play it.

Mynkla,

Just loving the shit outta Final Fantasy XVI…

doublejay,

recommend a resource management game, maybe 4x game, on Ps4, that is sort of casual. Like, I loved Civ Rev, but i dont have time for for Civ anymore - I'm more Stardew Valley these days.

What does everyone think of BattleBit Remastered?

@InduperatorRex I have been having a blast. I though I would end up refunding it, but so far I got 10 hours and I want to keep playing. It gets more fun as you play as more weapons start to unlock for you giving you something to look forward to as you progress.

I keep hearing good things about it. It looks like Roblox to me.. and that's a bit off putting.

Could be fun but not something I'm eager to buy, at least not at the moment.

StrongFox,

Can someone recommend me a game for my kids (10, 6, 6) for the Switch. They love Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. It should be Multiplayer, so all 3 can play. Wo do have all the big nintendo titles like Mario Cart and Mario Party.

TMNT was mentioned, and I also +1 that

I would also add Castle Crashers as a recommendation, though it might be a little too bloody / violent for your kid's age range.

dbaner,

Overcooked is good chaotic multiplayer. But they'd need to learn to cooperate which may be a problem

Is there a decent Overwatch 1 ripoff out/in development? I miss OG Overwatch a lot. 😭

ono,

Paladins is the alternative I’ve seen mentioned most. It has a different feel, though.

Steam has a page for hero shooters:

Looking like a great year for old gaming franchises, holding five of the top six metascores so far for 2023.

jester,
@jester@kbin.social avatar

@Ashtear Honestly, just a good year for gaming as a whole IMO. SF6 has been my main right now but need to get around to ToTK!

slackadelic,

New to kbin and trying to find my place in this federated world! Like many I've come over from reddit! I game on and mainly play right now. Anyone else out there doing the same?

Are there any RTSes with no scrolling. Just display the entire map really small all at once?

It seems like it could be an interesting format on large screens these days.

dwindling7373,

In Total Commander / Bejond All Reason apparently good players spend most of the match in a very zoomed out tactical map.

In general I think the Total Commander genre is one of the few that allows a somewhat usable total view. Another good candidate would be Homeworld, since there microng is not that important so you can probably play a whole game on the starmap.

Other cheating answer would include… Very small old rts on modern screens. I think a smallsized AoE II map on original resolution would fit on 4k panel…

Basically all the Total Annihilation clones allow you to zoom out to see the entire map and are designed to be controllable like that (units turn into small icons and such).

You can try this gratis and open-source one: www.beyondallreason.info

TheoryOfTheInternet,

Is there any sort of Xbox Games Showcase megathread created for tomorrow at all? One area where all information can be aggregated?

sofa,
@sofa@kbin.social avatar

@TheoryOfTheInternet I haven’t seen one yet. I’m new to kbin as of today. Is it possible to just go into m/gaming and make one? I should be around tomorrow so I can make one if possible.

TheoryOfTheInternet,

@sofa I think so, but I am unsure how to do it myself to be honest lol.
