  • I hope this takes off, there hasn't been much buzz around it. I tried the dev preview which seemed pretty good, and I like that games can't have any microtransactions and are instead paid by playtime.

    Downloading it now, hopefully it's good because Gmod is one of my most played games ever.

  • Demon's Souls seems the least bad for me, I wouldn't mind living in the nexus with other people waiting for someone to get rid of The Old One. It's implied that everything goes back to normal after the ending compared to Dark Souls' "everyone dies" endings.

  • Oof, that's crazy. What were they thinking?

  • If you're looking for depth, Hytale probably isn't for you yet. The game is still early in development, what exists is awesome but it doesn't have that much content or depth yet. I'd compare it to Minecraft before the end update.

    Vintage Story can get pretty deep, but be aware it's a lot slower and more hardcore than the other two. A lot of your time will be spent just trying to stay alive. Staying warm, getting food, farming, spending a long time crafting things like pots out of clay... You don't even get to mine until the mid-game, and finding copper can be a real hassle. Honestly it might be what you're looking for if you're into survival games. That said, I wouldn't say it has a TON of content, it's more that everything takes so much time to make that you'll spend ages finishing what's here.

    In terms of raw content and depth there isn't any block game that can match the depth and content of Minecraft with tons of mods, I think.

  • It takes some getting used to, you can play the easy difficulties until you wrap your head around the mechanics. Once I got past the difficulty curve though I found it very fun.

  • Against the storm sounds like a perfect fit. It's in a fantasy setting though, so it's quite different from Cities Skylines.

    The idea is that you build a village, collect resources, and try to survive until you complete objectives. Once you're done, you earn some permanent progression and move on to the next area to build. Each zone has its own challenges and randomly generated resources.

  • I kinda agree. It was a lot of blue balling, there's only so many times they can tease answers or go "he's going to reintegrate for real this time" without actually revealing anything...

  • Seconding the 'friendslop' recommendations, all of those games are relatively cheap and fun to mess around with friends. REPO was a big hit in my group even if it doesn't have that much content.

  • He insists upon himself .

  • You might be able to get away with playing FF7 Remake without knowing much about the original, but the ending and the one after it (FF7 Rebirth) pretty much demands you understand the story of the old games.

  • The only reason you'd buy one is if you're going to use the touchpads, because otherwise this looks pretty expensive and bulky. Especially for PC, there are some really good relatively cheap 3rd party controllers now. I have a friend that bought a ~$20 GameSir controller and is very happy with it .

  • FWIW according to an insider, this is a bug. People have been saying this menu is for PS+ games that expire when your subscription runs out.

    Incredibly stupid that Sony isn't responding about this at all though.

  • Seamless co-op is soooo goooood. I never realized how much I wanted a full co-op experience in souls games until that dropped, I ended up playing through the game twice with friends.

    Also if we're doing mods, Elden Ring Convergence and Elden Ring Randomizer are also excellent and worth your time.

  • That's Dark Souls 1

  • There are many but two notable ones (Spirited and Scrooge: A Christmas Carol) released just a few years ago.

  • I'd argue Infinity War, but Endgame was definitely a better social experience.

  • My god, how many Christmas Carol adaptations must we have?

  • The first one looked great despite being on a lower budget, I can't wait to see what they can do now that they have more time and money.
