Slay the Spire is one of the best games I played in a while. I got to ascension 20 with Ironclad and it was so fun, the game is just so good and I generally don't like card games but this one if magnificent.

Me. This was the only true roguelike I ever played, didn't get it at all and kinda hated it, I love roguelites though.

>>2532
As mentioned earlier in the thread, it's not really a typical roguelike and you'd be doing yourself a disservice if you disregard roguelikes altogether based on that experience.

My recommendation would be Infra Arcana, quite simple to get into but still has lots of tactical depth.

To add to >>2533
If you give Infra Arcana a go the classes go from easiest to harder to get into first (IMO): War Veteran, Rogue, Ghoul, Occultist, Flagellant, Exorcist

>>2533
Along with Infra Arcana I recommend Rogue Fable IV, I got minorly addicted to it last month and played about 30 hours. It's fast paced and very easy to learn with a focus on combat and simple character building with a neat system where you mix abilities from other classes in with yours as you find skill tomes. Finding out a new way that a rogue ability can benefit a wizard for example is a lot of fun. I also like how they scattered oldschool health and mana pickups to incentivize moving around during combat. That said it's maybe obviously not the deepest game out there and I don't have a ton of motivation to keep playing after getting a handful of wins.

My #1 comfy game is chivalry medieval warfare. Real nice atmosphere, you never get finished growing in skill cause of the high skill roof, and it's just real nice. Since it's an old game you can play on sucky hardware, I play without a discrete GPU even.

A bit sad about that it seems to be drying out, I guess people left for either chivarly 2 or mordhau, which I can't really get into both because of hardware constraints and I don't really like the way they play. Some people around on fridays at least. Never played any other game with as much depth as it has, there is always more to learn and improve even after yearas playing, I am sad that people can't have the same experience anymore that I had going in when it was more active.

If you wanna give it a try I really recommend it though, and it might be your last chance to with the last remnants of the community still keeping around.

The most comfy games I've ever played has to be the atelier series. Admittedly I haven't really touched the new ones that much yet but the older 3d ones (rorona and such) are just peak CGDCT. They are very good to just pick up once in awhile, and the themes can range from extremely dumb and lighthearted to having a bit of tension but still feeling grounded. The rpg aspect is an enjoyable gameplay loop too as well in the games. If you're worried about difficulty, usually while the main games themselves are very easy, the DLCs can be very hard and require you to minmax your crafted alchemy items. Lastly the girls are just very cute!! Though in recent times KT Gust has been pivoting to a different style in the series.

Style Savvy Trendsetters, it always helps me relax

>>2521
Ive been wanting to get into the Atelier series. What games would be a good start?

>>473
To be honest, it has been a lot easier to figure out monster patterns. I wouldn't say it makes the game easier. As far as streamlining, whether or not it makes or breaks the game is dependent on your preferences. If anything, the first real problem I ran into was the amount of monsters at launch being so small,thankfully, combat is fun enough for me to not care about what i'm fighting, as long as i'm fighting.

Monster Hunter co-op on pc? What a sweet dream.

I've been playing World on PC a lot as of late, after beating Alatreon in 3U.

Monster Hunter Wilds is lit!

its me Mario!

Super Mario Sunshine is /sushi/core

I loved the Gamecube games so much as q kid. I wish I could go back to those days.. Sunshine, Luigi's Mansion, Power tennis, Party etc etc. I think it's an underrated era in Mario

Mario Odyssey is one of the best games out there, definitely the best platformer I played.

I prefer Azure Lane.

It has been 4 years since I last played this game.

I married many of my ships, like 20. I don't think I'll play it anymore, I'll just let my shipgirls chill on the base from now on, they are retired.

Prinz Eugen and all of the Hippers are absolute worste trash ships

Personally, I liked the original Resident Evil REmake. It felt like an improvement on the original bringing back pure survival horror. The prerendered backgrounds still look gorgeous too. Its an example of a remake done right. Generally, remakes are too faithful to the original or they change too much that they loose a connection to the source material. A good remake should be an alternative spin on the original, it has to get the spirit and feel of the original without being a predictable rehash. REmake nails this perfectly. The newer Resi remakes feel more like homages to the originals but I'm just happy to see some new survival horror.

Really they shouldn't remake classics but old games that were good but fell short and remained cult classics. I'd rather see a Clocktower remake than SH2.

>>2234
>It definitely must suck seeing your favourite game warped and twisted to modern, politically correct standards.
Yeah it does. I've not been following the news on SH2. I'm really not looking forward to the remake. Did they remove the abstract rape scenes or something? Its pretty central to the plot of SH2. Why remake it anyway? SH2 was so good there's really not that much to build upon. Its near perfect as it is. You want to make a cynical cash grab? Just rerelease it simple. Its probably gonna flop anyway because hardcore SH2 fans won't buy it and most gamers these days have zero interest in horror that isn't the same Slender Friday Night and Freddy cheap jumpscare game.

>what irks me is that these remakes that have been coming out lately are for games that aren't even that old.
Corpos borrow strategies. Disney pumps out remakes because they know the children that watched this stuff in the 90s and 2000s are now adults with kids of their own, so they can appeal to people's nostalgia. I'm guessing video game corpos are just aping this trend. It doesn't make sense in SH2's case because I can't imagine introducing kids to that game and most gamers these days hate a narrative heavy single player horror. Since creative decisions are now made by suits and gaming is less auteur driven, the winning strategic is formula = $$$ so just mass produce stuff according to established formulas. Its why everything is so samey now. Remakes are low effort and low risk. Its basically rehashing anPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

I understand that some games simply cannot be accessed anymore and the only way to provide them is to make a port/remake, but I don't see the need to remake good games other than a quick cash grab. Demon's Souls certainly could have used a remake since it was a tech demo at best, but Silent Hill 2 doesn't need it. Resident Evil 1 had some nice quality changes, like preserving the direction you're moving across screen changes without moving the joystick. The newer REs with the 3rd person camera are junk if you ask me. At that level of investment, I think you would have a better time calling it something else.

I liked the RE4 remake it felt different enough from the original that it was fun to play through again and it didn't kill my desire to ever play the old one either

HD remasters of early 3D games with shitty graphics (or early 2D games without color) can be good if they're faithful and just strict graphical upgrades, but remakes are basically always bad. In theory they can be good when the original creators weren't able to achieve their vision because of technical limitations or production issues and want to go back and do it right, but in practice only games that were popular enough to sell on brand recognition get picked for remaking and those achieved that reputation by already being good. At best you get to buy the same game a second time but with a little bit of its soul sucked out. At worst you get a generic modern game wearing the skin of a classic to trick people into forking over cash. It's really telling how they stopped trying to replace the originals and are now trying to have them exist alongside the originals.

Remakes should just be for better graphics/sound or to make it run on today's platform. Anything more is a reboot.

Do DiabloII count as a real-time game? I believe that you can code a bot for it too.

still have the modded SMP? also what mods do u have sushi,….

>>2494
It's a create-mod focused SMP. I've been waiting to start it, since I want to make sure I have time to devote to it. It's all about building a city, with automation, internal politics, and the sort. If there's interest, I'll post the server link.

>>2399
>SMP
symmetric multiprocessing?

>>2517
In this context it usually refers to survival mode servers with PvP turned on. Usually diagnosed by periods of low user-to-user interaction combined with planned social events. Also, a buzz word.

A shower thought, isn't it usually just an attempt at an MMO, regardless of whether MCMMO is installed or not?

>>2518
SMP just means survival minecraft playthrough. Anything else is secondary.

I've made it my life's mission to tell everyone about Crimson Skies. When I was a kid, this game was my everything. I wanted so badly to live in this world. Yes, there are better flight sims (I mean it's not really a flight sim considering how unrealistic everything is) out there but my nostalgia for this one beats all the rest. Also inb4 this game looks like shit yeah I know it came out in 2000 and runs horrendously on modern devices I know.

I'm playing Morrowind now. It's fun, reminds me of Gothic.
