What are you playing, looking forward to, hating, etc. Most things video game related can go here. What type of genres do you like? At the moment, I'm pla...

Fantasy
Yeah I feel ya, multiplayer for me is still stuff like csgo and other shooters. I wanna get into monster hunter with them but they're annoying about it sometimes

I just keep playing the same games over and over. My favourites are Super smash bros Melee, league of legends and team fortress 2. I know they are old but nothing can replicate the feel of these games.

Can you read the same book more than once? I can't. I also can't really replay games I've beaten. I've done it for a few like chrono trigger and ocarina of time but for most it's a one and done. Does knowing what's coming not bother you? What kinds of games do you play? I imagine it's easier for certain generes but I've never been a big replayer. Now I say this... but I got a ps2 with an hdd and a shitload of games recently and am replaying a few oldies I've beaten. But it'll be a one and done again for a decade. How do you do it?

purplebrank I have fallen into the same hole - I basically rotate the only few games I have played since teens. Guess the comfort zone is too strong.

Gigachad I guess it depends on the kind of game. The more reliant on plot/story the less likely I am to replay it. That's why I can keep playing Doom or Duke Nuken over and over but I couldn't get myself to replay a Silent Hill game for the multiple endings despite wanting to.

purplebrank

Gigachad I mean all the games I listed are multiplayer games, so what keeps me going is the strive to become better or just playing with friends.

Love me rpgs, but i've been playing shooties lately, really got into cod a couple of days ago, right now i'm playing dying light cause i'm bored, it's pretty good, might pick up dead island 2 when I get a chance.

Ive ended up buying a lot on the steam sale
I bought and ended up refunding sonic frontiers, the game was just buggy enough to annoy me and I wasnt really feeling the overall gameplay.
I ended up going on the great for deck section and grabbing some games there, hades, the lego star wars complete saga, mini ninjas, shakedown Hawaii and stuff like that

Some fairly little games that'll run well on deck, hopefully I play them all lol
I'd already played hades a year or so ago and it was definitely a good game

Fantasy

I bought Hades when it was early access on the Epic Store.
It's the only game I bought from them, and it was worth it. Hades is a very good game. I wish they didn't opt to make a Hades 2 though. The studio had never done a sequel before, and I like that a lot. Firm believer that new IP are always better than sequels.

Sony have shown off a concept video for a Gravity Rush film...
IDK who they think theyre going to be appealing to, everyone who liked the series knows never to have any faith in sony related to the series

Unrelated, but i've been doing Brain Training (The original on DS), specifically trying to get the brain age better, to just generally help myself. I'm getting better... but not enough to say the number! 😆

Man I am NOT looking forward to this.
Imo sony needed to do only 1 thing
Release both GR games on PC.

1996FordMondeo

Lumeinshin
SO apparently the PC ports are coming
My source ofc is 4chan so who knows
https://boards.4chan.org/v/thread/669141446
But if its true then I am genuinely hyped.
Loving the 1st game on the vita.
If they sell both games together on steam for like 20€ then im definetly buying it,

Lumeinshin I think nowadays, even if I wanna play a long story game or RPG or whatnot, I dont give myself the free time to do so. So for me roguelikes are the thing I spend more time with
I've been playing devil spire lately. I need to play more to decide whether I REALLY like it, but its a neat dungeon crawler in the vein of something like daggerfall or kings field.

Lumeinshin I still have longer games I wanna play, just gotta get the time

Man, I feel this so much. I cannot even start anything long, as I'm thinking: "Well, I need several days to finish that and I definitely won't be free tomorrow", and so I'm sticking to the short games as well.
The rare ocassion when I'm actually able to get into a longer game though... it is marvelous. Like, about 9 month ago I've played a game for about 3-4 days straight. A small indie title named Pine - I've spent whole day in it, went to sleep, woke up and went straight back into the game and, man, it was quite incredible. I've, like, felt a touch of my younger self, when I could just immerse myself into the virtual world without a care in the world.
And it really doesn't feel right to jump into a proper RPG, with all the characters and lore for just an hour or two. You gotta be there for a while to feel it, dude.

It's a bit of a shame because there's lots of long form stuff I wanna get thru but haven't "found the time"
It extends past games into other projects so I shouldn't be too surprised
For RPGs tho I definitely wanna be able to no-life it for a couple days

Ross_R

Lumeinshin
Indeed. A lot of personal projects just lying around with no time for them.
For me it gets a lot worse when I'm on the regular job. I have no idea how people with a job are able to do anything but their job. In part it is also because I'm having a hard time switching between different tasks.

1996FordMondeo

So allegedly capcom is adding new DRM to their own games.
And apparently it is being implemented to prevent people from using cheat engine or modding their games.
Which is a shame because recently ive been playing pirated copy of RE2make and actually enjoying the game.
Even considered purchasing the game. But if this situation is true then ill stick to using pirated copies of their games.
Note most of the shit i hear is from /v/ so take it with a grain of salt.

I've been playing death must die, which is a vampire-survivor like with some more RPG elements, armour drops and some minor inventory management. It's alright and does fill the 'something mildly fun to play whilst watching youtube' void that afflicts everyone my age these days.
I've also been playing Pseudoregalia, a fun MetroidVania 3d Platformer type game, lots of backtracking and getting new abilities to help with platforming. Its a fun little game that has a bit of jank sometimes. The dev is a furry though so be weary of anything community related you see 😆

1996FordMondeo Yeah I saw that RE:Revelations was on sale and it'd been review bombed due to the DRM. I did see a post from capcom on the game saying they'd "Reverted the previous update" but didnt specify anything about the DRM issue

pizza kid I cant think of anything off the top of my head. There's gotta be a RPGMaker series or something that'd be a good fit, although most of the high quality ones are the ones that have a psychology/mental focus. I'll keep an eye out.
I think there is Eiyuden Chronicles that came out last year but I think its got mixed reviews

Ross_R

They've been adding file protection since at least Street Fighter IV. Anything will be cracked, just as it was before. Best of luck to Capcom; I reckon they will only be successful at rising even more ire towards the big VG companies of today. Which is a good thing.

1996FordMondeo

Ross_R
The thing is this. Based on what ive read this DRM isnt to prevent piracy. capcom has been already adding denuvo for that.
This DRM is added to prevent users from modding their games and allegedly they have started adding it to their old games via updates.
Now there is a lot of he said she said on /v/ and I am not autistic enough to properly read trough all those threads, so I am trying to take things with a grain of salt.
But as someone who likes modding the games I will be waiting until more definitive evidence comes out before buying capcom games.

Ross_R

1996FordMondeo This DRM is added to prevent users from modding their games

That's what I'm saying, mate. Street Fighter IV had a file that prevented file modification, unless you've hacked said file. So Capcom games has been protected against mods for a long time.
Even then, it is only a new story for PC. A lot of console games had files checks of various kinds for hell knows how long.
It all can be circumvented, but it definitely will make life more uncomfortable.
I mean, you like modding games? Man, I love modding games.

1996FordMondeo they have started adding it to their old games via updates.

Now this is not even an issue. Just do not update. There's no need to update your old game.
I do not know if it is a Steam problem - I do not use Steam - but if it is a Steam problem, I say it's good. Maybe it will alienate more people towards Steam along the way.
Make no mistakes, Steam is DRM itself.

I'm a casual gamer (and heavenforbid, a nintendie) and I don't play as much games anymore. I used to be really into RPGs, mostly JRPG, and was super obsessed with the Shin Megami Tensei series. I don't play that many multiplayer games except for TF2 and COD.

Anyway, any of you know a good indie RPG game? (and please, no more depression mental illness allegory bollocks although mere mentions of it is still a-okay).

pizza kid
Pine. Though it is more like Zelda from what I've heard.
Shin Megami Tensei is more of a dungeon crawler, right? A good indie one would be Starcrawlers then.
