OT: Video Game Thread Part VIII

[trostol]

only real issue i have with Andromeda is it is bloated by crappy mmo style fetch quests..otherwise ..yes some had issues at launch( i didn't) but people it seems gave up way too early on it..it really picks up a couple hours in..as soon as you get the ship

I really struggle with open world games specifically. Just bores me to death.

Slay the spire has been holding my attention for a bit, and I play counter strike regularly.

It's really tough for me to find games I will like because I have no idea what criteria I'm looking for

If you like games with short game loops, Dave the Diver and Slice & Dice are really great for that.

XCOM2 also has an addictive game loop that alternates between tactical combat and strategic progression.

What about survival games like Subnautica or Green Hell or Palworld?

@Striiker Baby R9 is Mbappe on steroids. Guy just runs through the backs of CBs and takes the ball and rips it upper 90 every time.

Yeah, I used both him and 95 R9 in drafts and they’re both ridiculous. Not every card lives up to their stats but you can see why they’re worth as much as they are.

Conversely, the biggest fraud I’ve ever used in any FIFA was Pele.

Has anyone else played Against the Storm? It's pretty good.

Going seriously old school... it took me a while to to find/remember this game that my family played back in the '80s, "The Perils of Rosella". The 4th in the series of "King's Quest" games. Got the whole series on Steam.

Who's on the Balatro train? Poker crossed with Slay the Spire = Indie and Mobile GOTY Awards for a game made by one guy. I finally got my first crazy big boy run.

Cloning the 2nd Joker TWICE was giving me multipliers like 30x30x30 in the end.

If you hate yourself enough to still be a fan of the Flyers and want a short game loop that is very simple on the surface (extremely deep if you want it to be)...

You can try Noita.
