Same thing for me ! I’m currently watching the season 2 of Critical Role on YouTube. It’s not a TV show but it’s high quality show for sure. It’s a standalone campaign of Dungeon & Dragon. It’s so good and there are so many hours of content !

I didn’t know the StreetComplete app. It’s so cool ! Thanks !

Against the Storm ! I’m learning, it’s hard to win your first game !

Lace your heart with mine Let your sleeping soul take flight Take me through the night Down down down by the river Down down down by the river

Pentiment ! On the advice of someone from Lemmy. Good game some far ! The story is good, well documented. I’m in the Act III (i think it’s the last one)

Last Epoch in hardcore mode. I’m so invested in that game ! I’m currently near the end of the campaign with a warrior and the adrenaline is high when I’m low HP.

I have started the game yesterday. It is pretty good so far. Thanks for the recommendation !

Helldivers 2 and Elden Ring !

I’m also thinking about buying Pentiment for a chill game. Is it good ?

Helldivers 2 with friends. But the 1.0 of Last Epoch released Wednesday evening. Can’t wait for the weekend !

Yeah, apart from multiplayer issues. Impossible to play on Saturday night. I don’t know how you can justify that when Sony is behind your back.

But I have pre ordered the digital premium edition of Starfield. And I was there on launch. So anything can happen to me in gaming now.

Helldivers 2. Great game with friends !

I’m finishing Elden Ring because of the old rumor of the new DLC. Probably a bit of Plague Tale Requiem after that.

Wow, thank you for the list and the explanations for each !

Just by curiosity, what plugins do you use for your campaign ?

We are spoiled with good games if you know where to look. We had less possibilities back then. So yeah, they will be nostalgic of the great games coming out recently !

Compared to Elden Ring :

• the combat is faster. The game expects you to attack and not to wait for the opportunity. For example, when an enemy attacks you and you defend with your shield. You loose temporary hit points that you recover only by attacking. If you get hit, you loose all these temporary hit points. It will depend on what gameplay you like.
• I struggle much more on Elden Ring for the reason above. So for me, Elden Ring is more difficult.
• it’s very linear for the moment like the old souls (20 hours of game time). It’s not an open world. But the game design of the old souls is better.
• The customization of your character is very much like the souls. No winner here.
• The overall ambiance of the game is amazing.
• The two worlds feature is not really interesting. The mechanic faded pretty quickly for me. It’s now more annoying than the wow effect at the beginning of the game

I think it’s a good game. There are definitely some flaws but I’m enjoying the experience.

Kingdom come is such a good Idea for hardcore mode ! Thank you !

Yeah, I probably do the same in this situation. I probably play strong narrative games, short indies games, roguelikes.

I don’t really feel that my time evaporate into nothing. I have more memories of the rush of adrenaline of failed attempts than any recent video games stories. I play the journey of the character and not really the story.

Luckily for us, we can have all sort of experiences with so many video games out everyday. We’re in a golden age !

The solution for me was hardcore mode. I play most of games with one life or 30% chance of dying (inspired by Outwards hardcore mode). My gameplay has changed so much.

Of course, you cannot do this with all games but most of RPGs and adventure games are compatible with the hardcore mode.

Currently playing Last Epoch, an Arpg, great fun. One life or you delete the character.

That Etsy tips is so precious. Thank you very much !
