Question of the week:
What game have you completed recently and what are your thoughts on it?
Playing Chained Echoes right now, it’s pretty fun and feels a lot like Chrono Trigger. Definitely recommend for anybody who likes old school JRPGs.
Sifu was another fun game I played recently, really good fighting mechanics that feel very fluid and look cinematic.
Afterparty was a fun story based game I can recommend for people looking for something casual.
I find I tend to like indie games nowadays because they tend to be shorter and mechanics are simpler, so you can just pick it up and play it for a bit without having to really get into it.
My fav genres are roguelike and story based games, in particular I really liked pretty much everything Telltale games made. I find they always have excellent writing in their games.
I used to play a lot of FPS and RTS games, but last RTS I played was SC2, and for FPS it was Titanfall 2 which was a ton of fun.
Does Sifu have much of a story? It’s one I’ve had some interest in but don’t know much about it
Not much of a story in it, it’s mostly just the innovative fighting system that carries.
Gotcha. I still probably will give it a try but have been interested in it because Sleeping Dogs is one of my favorite games
I should check Sleeping Dogs out, never actually played that one. :)
Mostly DayZ recently and some Rocketleague again for the first time in a while.
Gave TW:Attila a decent shot recently. Pretty good game, TWs just get stale fairly fast for me.
Also tried the HP game a while ago and…it’s just boring. Looks pretty good, there’s tons to do, they put in a lot of effort, but idk. Still feels weirdly lifeless and unengaging to me. Can’t really put my finger on it. On paper it’s everything my 10yo self would’ve wanted from an open world HP game, but it isn’t. Played maybe 8h, haven’t touched it in weeks and I highly doubt I’ll ever finish it.

Does it have proper UI scale now? I remember playing it long ago and it was great and since then a lot of great mods came out but i can’t play it since the interface is microscopic on higher resolutions.
