You, there! Recommend me video games OR...

cross-posted from: https://lemmygrad.ml/post/5297759

...OR I will refer to records as "vinyl CDs" like I did last time.

You have been warned.

Don't test me; I will do it!

Current games I have on my sights are:

The original Deus Ex

Ib

Infinity Nikki

Remnant II

Silent Hill II (through emulation)

Dragon's Dogma II

Slay the Princess

ELEX and ELEX 2

Dread Delusion

Daggerfall

Morrowind

Hylics 1 and 2

RuneScape 3 (not RuneScape Classic... I know, I know, don't hurt me!)

Currently playing:

Elden Ring (finishing it)

OMORI (slowly taking my time in finishing it)

Fallout 76 (much better than what it was at launch; if anyone wants to play with me, they may ask me)

Recently finished:

Disco Elysium

Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous (y'all should play both Pathfinder CRPG games)

Love:

CRPGs

MMORPGs (yes, even now)

Open-world games (...yes, even with the over-saturation)

Decision-making

Stealth games

Pacifist runs

Minor horror elements? Eh, idk, nothing, like, over-bearing, ig

Macabre horror (basically, horror that isn't horror; just has the aesthetic)

3D platformers (like Super fucking Mario; you know, the Italian-American voiced by Chris Pratt)

Mods, mods, mods

Not too fucking long; let me finish a game when I want to easily (so, basically, not, like, Persona 5-levels of long, idk)

Anything like Majora's Mask

"Nautical games" (Wind Waker, Dredge, etc.)

"Classic games" (basically, games through emulation)

VR games, oddly enough

"Cozy games"

"girl games" shovel-ware (basically, the precursor to "cozy games"; the type of shit you found on the Nintendo Wii)

Interactivity outside of the actual game (I don't know much about Pokemon Go... but what I do know is Pokemon Go to the polls)

Dungeon crawlers (think: King's Field)

Music with lyrics, idk (I don't know much about Quavo... but what I do know is Quavo go to the polls)

Good music. Banger music, even.

No loading screens; seriously, let me start up a game and just play. I feel like starting up a game nowadays is sometimes a whole process.

Non-Western games (...Eh, tbh, I don't really have a bias, I'm just sort-of interested in how they're developing and what they have to bring... SO think: Chinese, Vietnamese, Russian, Indian, African, Latin American, etc.)

Nintendo games...

...or anything LIKE a Nintendo game (with wacky gameplay, idk)

Autistic games... Okay, so far, I think OMORI is, like, the only "Autistic game" out there, but surprise me.

LGBTQIA+ games

BIPOC character games

... okay, that's all, you don't even have to follow these requirements at all; hell, be a little creative and use your own insight.

Okay... now...

...SHOOT!

(No, wait, put the gun away!)

  • Wrath of the Righteous was one of the best CRPGs I've ever played. Would recommend that. I'm playing Owlcat's followup right now: Rogue Trader, and loving it even more actually, but will save final verdict for when I finish it.

    • I loved both Kingmaker and Wrath of the Righteous especially.

      I can't wait to play the Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader CRPG they made next; I still have yet to play that one.

      • Rogue Trader is good for me, but there's buts. On the one hand, it's probably best representation of 40k universe ever made in game, and the story is aslo actually quite good, just as characters (unlike Wrath of the Righteous where it was probably the chief reason for me to drop it, i didn't found literally anyone interesting).
        But on the other there's still shitton of bugs and bad design choices, and classes for combat is probably the worst i ever seen in an cRPG, almost every single class is a fucking chore to use in combat because you need to set up elaborate, often multi turn combos, buildups and setups in every single random combat, which goes old very very fast. And they even harshly nerfed the only class where it wasn't necessary (i mean you needed some setup too, but you could do it in few clicks instead of few minutes). Also it's of course pathfinder, the most overcook rpg system ever. And you can't even respec party characters without toolbox mod, seriously full respeccing of even class in Baldur 3 is such a fucking great idea i wonder why nobody else had it in the last 3 decades.

        Overall, very recommended, but you might want to skim over combat or mod it.

        • "shitton of bugs and design choices" I can wait those out, I think.

          And yeah, mods may come in handy here.
