How do you pick your games?
I had a moment to think about why I like certain games, and I have figured out some criteria for myself,
- Vibrant colours
- Simple/Cartoon-ish looks
- Mid/High level of complexity in mechanics
That's why my current favourite game is Splatoon 3, followed by Minecraft, and the list consists mostly of Nintendo games.
What's your criteria?
You're viewing a single thread.
I think in general I tend to ask myself these questions:
- can I role play as someone else?
- is there a branching storyline that can be replayed in different ways?
- is there an open world with tons of nooks and crannies to explore?
- can I dress up? :)
- is there a fun and novel gameplay mechanic?
Usually I’m invested if it ticks several boxes. I love long, story heavy rpg’s like BG3. But also visual novels like Roadwarden, open world like Shadow of Doubt, or more experimental like Book of Travels.
Have you played the Shadowrun games? They also have some custom campaigns in the steam workshop.
Oh yes, definitely!
Though I haven’t thought of trying the custom campaigns. Thank you for reminding me! :)Some of them are really good. Same quality as an actual game.
