I find the gameplay more interesting this time around honestly. There are so many ways to mix and match your moves. You get 3 choices of a primary attack, 3 choices of a secondary attack, and I think like 6 or 7(?) combo finishers. You can mix and match those in a bunch of ways and each of those have their own trees to improve them, and you can swap them out. You start with one primary attack but can unlock everything as you find materials and stuff.

And those are just your normal moves. Each of the bosses you can fight will give a combat ability which uses a power meter that recharges by using your normal attacks. The bosses each give you a choice of 2-3 combat abilities to have at any one time, and you can swap later if desired (with certain items). Plus there are various attack types that different enemies are or resistant against, plus some of the status effects you can apply have synergies.

Exploring is a total treat too. The areas feel so packed with cool things to find and do. Just having an absolute blast

 

Hey everyone! I'm back! Sorry for the lack of gaming threads. And I appreciate the people who took up the mantle while I was away. I hope to be back doing these more regularly but will figure something out for if I do decide to take an extended leave again.

Soooooo. What have you been playing!!! Since we last spoke I've been playing a metric fuck ton. I cleared a lot of backlog but right now I am devouring Control Reasonant. Game is unreasonably good. Highly recommend of you liked the first game! I personally think it is better in almost every way. It rocks

Hey all! Yeah sorry I haven't been active. I got busy and was trying to mostly stay off social media for mental health reasons, and then honestly got embarrassed about not posting for so long. But, I am down to start posting again! If everyone seems cool with that I can go ahead and make one now! This doesn't really solve anything if I do disappear again but I'll try and be better about it. And I can reach out to other mods / admins about taking it over if I go MIA again

 

Hey all! Welcome back to the ~~monthly~~ weekly gaming thread! So, what have you been playing this last month?

I've been on quite a few things! Saros, Mario galaxy 2, some other stuff!

I also recently started Abiotic Factor which is a super fun co op survival game that takes a ton of inspiration from the original half life. It's awesome! Def recommend if you have some friends to run it with

Hey everyone! What have y'all been playing? I've mainly been running sts 2 (slay the spire 2) a ton! I think next is Mario Galaxy 2. I picked it up since it's my bday today c:

 

What have you all been playing!

I finished Cairn which was excellent! Highly recommend. I also finally played and beat RE4R DLC Seperate Ways. Also excellent! I love that game!

 

Whatcha all playing? I finally finished persona 5! Loved it!

Now I'm on to Cairn. Really cool so far! Pretty tough too

[–] chloyster@beehaw.org 13 points 6 months ago

Looks fucking abysmal

 

Whatcha been playing! I've been continuing grinding p5. Soooo close to being done. Also picked up Slay the Spire 2! It's so awesome!

 

An on time game thread!? What timeline is it. What have you all been playing!

I've been playing and LOVING RE Requiem!!! The game is so, so good. I can't wait to keep playing it!

 

Hey all! Apologies for being bad about these threads. All I can really say is life is kind of chaotic. I'm going to see if I can maybe get a bot to post these if I can't do it a certain week. Thanks for being understanding.

As for me I've mainly been playing Persona 5 Royal. Been really loving it! It's so damn long though lol. Really excited for res 9 next week as well!!!

 

Happy February! What are you all playing?

I'm continuing Persona 5 Royal which I continue to love. I also started a game called Burggeist. It's a weird kind of team ico style strategy game. It's odd so far. Not totally sure how I feel yet but I'll give it more time

 

What are y'all playing?

I've been playing Persona 5 Royal! I'm absolutely loving it. It's my 3rd time trying to play and I think it's really clicked this time. Super excited to keep playing :)

 

Apologies for the late thread... Again... Been a chaotic new years.

Anyway I finished BG3! 5/5 absolutely adored it. Sad its over. Not much I'm playing rn but I want to start seance at Blake manner!

 

We're back! Sorry for the delay, holidays were busy :)

I've been going all in on BG3! I got to act 3 and think I am getting pretty close to the end now. I've loved it but I am also ready to be done with it

I'm not 100% sure yet. I think I want to make a beginner kaizo hack... But mainly just learning the tool right now and will see if I'm inspired to do something after

[–] chloyster@beehaw.org 2 points 11 months ago

Yeah the main thing I've noticed is solo queues tend to be way chiller. People are mostly just minding their own business. Group queue however is, for the most part, shoot on sight. Which at least feels a little less bad since you have people with you

[–] chloyster@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah definitely mostly melee. The way enemies respond to hits in different parts of their body is suuuuper satisfying haha. There are guns and bows and arrows but ammo is pretty sparse

[–] chloyster@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I really like dying light! The first game is one of my favorite zombie games. Above average open world game imo. Dying light 2 is decent but not as fun as the first imo. The beast so far has been really fun though. None of the games are anything too special, but the combat and parkour are pretty satisfying

[–] chloyster@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah I don't think the combat is hard by any means, I just found it really boring

[–] chloyster@beehaw.org 6 points 1 year ago

Yeah I totally feel this. I'm constantly really exhausted and often feeling really hopeless. Fwiw I only posted this particular one as I'm in Seattle and it being this close to home is very alarming to me. I try not to post much to these communities.

It's a weird thing where I agree and want to see a better ratio but the situation does often feel that dire

Turning my partners desktop into a nas but need some kind of desktop environment replacement. Feel like this could be a good option
