Vox, in What are you playing this week?

I saw someone on Lemmy recommend Backpack Battles yesterday, its pretty simple to pick up but takes a bit of thinking to start to optimize. I played a couple hours and had a lot of fun.

ReakDuck, in What are you playing this week?

I think I will continue playing Dark Souls Remastered. I am not that far at all. The second boss is killing my nerves.

Or I continue with Minecraft: Create above and beyond Modpack

dirtySourdough,

I still haven’t gotten into the Souls games yet. I think I just can’t handle that level of punishment from video games

ReakDuck,

Friends tell me that this game becomes awesome once I finish the second boss…

Its a mix of punishment and curiousity.

Borderlands 2 on native linux. Im not a huge gamer but this one is adddictive. Got it for like 5 bucks on steam. Does anyone want to play multiplayer with me. If native linux to linux works

dirtySourdough,

I’ve been considering Linux gaming lately. How does borderlands 2 run for you?

UnexploredEnigma,

Running nobara OS. Some games require setting launch options. BL2 is one of these for me, other people had no issues whatsoever. Once I get it launched, it works very well. Cant do multiplayer with windows players(or at all? Not sure). www.protondb.com/app/49520

dirtySourdough,

Never heard of nobara, is it supposed to do Linux gaming well?

UnexploredEnigma,

Nobara is a fork of fedora specifically for gaming. Been the most stable OS ive used so far.

theskyisfalling, in What are you playing this week?

Struggling at the moment to find something to get into.

Played around 4 hours of Days Gone and it didn’t really grab my attention.

Played THPS 1+2, got to area 51 on the first game within around an hour and just found it boring these days, I got ruined by Skate and it’s far superior control scheme.

Started on Forza Horizon 5, I really enjoyed playing 4 during covid and I am craving this kind of arcade racing but I am just struggling to get into this one. I think it is a combination of the map being boring as fuck and so by extension so are the races and there being so much going on on the map yet seemingly nothing to really do. Also being presented DLC on the map as if it is a race I can go and do really rubbed me up the wrong way a bit.

I have Disgaea 6 to try as well as Wasteland 3 and Disco Elysium but really not feeling an RPG right now. I’d like to try NFS Unbounded but refuse to download a shitty launcher to do so so now I’m lost xD

caut_R,

I agree so much on Forza 5, it‘s my first Forza and driving through the wasteland that is the part of Mexico they decided to largely use is… boring. Which is a shame cause the graphics, car selection, and driving is top tier. The Crew piqued my interest cause it‘s on Hawaii which sounds immediately more interesting lol, but I think it‘s overall a qualitatively worse game from the looks of it.

Gris is not only a beautiful game but it also has an absolutely beautiful soundtrack.

I see some Final Fantasy mentions, but I’m throwing Final Fantasy Tactics in particular into the ring.

  • Great gameplay (min-max to your heart’s content) that will let the player fail. Also will let the player soft lock themselves and require loading an earlier save if they didn’t have “optimal” builds for some encounters…
  • It has a story! That moves forward all of the time! Just let it happen and don’t think too much about it. You’re a mere mortal fighting up against gods at some point. Maybe?
  • Great soundtrack! My personal favorites are below.
  • Apoplexy
  • Battle on the Bridge
  • Antipyretic
  • Trisection

Doom Eternal. It fits the game perfectly. I also liked cyberpunk 2077 in all aspects.

PrivateNoob,

Yeah gonna give 2077 another try (although I liked the first version good as well) but my new PC has already became a minimum spec PC. XD

Starb3an,

Due to work I’m only free from 1am to 5am so my money went to a new computer.

PrivateNoob,

Long travel hours, isn’t it. That 4 hour free time sounds rough.

Starb3an,

Actually my hours are 3pm-1am and I’m a night owl. It’s only about 40-45mins round trip. Roll out of bed and go to work, then come home to video games and movies.

Sunset Overdrive is great if you like punk music. Saint’s Row, all of them.

PrivateNoob,

I’m open to a lot of genres, thank you for the showing SO to me!

Know_not_Scotty_does,

Happy to share. I didn’t grow up playIng Jet Set Radio but that is the game Sunset Overdrive gets compared to most often.

apotheotic, in Games with absolute banger OSTs (and perhaps good stories / gameplay)

Outer WILDS - fucking hell, fuck yes.

TUNIC - ohhhhhhhh fuck yes

Night in the Woods - I AM AN ANGSTY TEEN AND FUCK YES

Citizen Sleeper - fuck… Yes!!

PrivateNoob,

Played Night in the Woods. Good bless the creater, and RIP.

Real glad to see Life is Strange. Still can't listen to obstacles without crying and it's been probably 7 years

PrivateNoob,

Just listened to All of You and Santa Monica Dream and cried more than at my favorite grandma’s funeral (she was great tho). Something is wrong with me. XD

theComposer,

Spanish Sahara is the one that gets me. That ending absolutely crushed me.

I mean, I still think World of Warcraft has one of the most atmospheric sound tracks out there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lM_RlI5qVXI

Wait the suggestion of Jet Set Radio made me think

  • Gran Turismo
  • Twisted Metal
  • Cool boarders

Now those are some classics, time to break out the PS2

PrivateNoob,

OMFG RCG BULLY SONG HITS SO HARD OMGGGG. Okay whishlisthed automatically. Thank you!

Yes.

I am looking forward to Final Form, Reikon clearly knows what they are doing.

macaro,

I just looked it up, and even the trailer has good music. It reminds me of Ghost in the Shell.

Ixion and 40k Mechanicus both produced by Guillaume David

PrivateNoob,

Did you like the gameplay of Ixion? It seems some reviewers had some grudges with it a bit.

JoYo,
@JoYo@lemmy.ml avatar

yah, play story mode on your first playthrough and that will avoid all the issues that reviewers encountered at game launch.
