A gaming sub free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Horizon Forbidden West. Finally finished my second replay of HZD, chasing for platinum, and Frozen Wilds afterwards. Jumped on HFW just yesterday - a bit let down by the dragging slow start...
I've been playing Shapez that I picked up for $3 the other week. It's like a chill factorio, so it scratches that itch for me. Apparently they're working on a sequel, so maybe I'll play that next decade when it's on sale.
Hades. I'm not a fan of rogue-like games, but this one is awesome! I bought it second time on a different platform and trying to beat it on 100% again. I think for me one of the most appealing things of that game isdesign. Like, it's done amazingly well, "with love and care" one would say
For me it is Hades as well. Impulse purchase and I like so far. I'm progressing very slowly though. Still hesitant to active Godmode.
Hades is so cool, what's the highest heat you've played?
16 so far, just to get the Skelly's achievement. On my second playthrough I decided that I want to get that game to 100% both achievement-wise and content-wise, so I'm working on bonds with all characters at that moment
That Persona 3 Reload trailer has got me thinking about Atlus games again, so I'm gonna finally check out Catherine.
It really seems like the right level of weird so far.
Catherine is great, though I only played Classic and not Full Body. It takes itself more seriously than you'd except from the marketing (edit: the romantic stuff I mean; the rest of the game is funny AF), and the animation is great.
Though of all things, I remember it because it remixes classical music, which made the endgame ridiculous in a good way.
WAIT PERSONA 3 RELOAD TRAILER? WHAT??
Please do not be messing with me right now...
FYI, it's a remake of base P3, so no FES or Portable content. Knowing Atlus, that will come in P3RR a year later and be exclusive to iOS.
Wow, just saw the trailer, it looks good! My boy Makoto's 3D model finally looking as good as the official art makes him. Is there a SMT/Persona community on Lemmy yet?
Knowing Atlus, that will come in P3RR a year later and be exclusive to iOS.
Do not put that out into the world, you know that'll actually happen T_T
I don't think Lemmy's big enough for niche communities like a SMT specific one.
I've been playing Divinity Original Sin II with a buddy. I was pretty hesitant to try it out cuz I haven't played turn based games before, but I'm really enjoying this one!
I've also been not so patient playing Tears of the Kingdom. I'm admittedly a Zelda fanboy and I don't buy many games on launch so I let myself cheat this one time. I'm enjoying it so far, but there's just so much to do that it's overwhelming sometimes.
ToTK looks epic. It's out me though, or is it 100% Eden Ring but Zelda?
DOS2 is on my backlog of shame. Maybe one day.
I haven't played Elden Ring so I can't speak much to that comparison. The world is huge though, and the enemies are a bit more clever and complex compared to BotW. Certainly not as punishing as Elden Ring, but definitely more challenging than BotW.
You should definitely give DOS2 a go! The story is pretty cool, there are lots of mods you can add if you play on PC, and the combat feels very well balanced.
To be veeeery honest, Elden Ring is actually Dark Souls but Zelda. One game learned a lot from the other, and they're both great. The way I understand it, TOTK is expanded from BOTW and makes it even more of a physics engine game, with people engineering their contraptions (usually to torture the poor Koroks lol)
This is probably fair. Just watching people play it some if the details struck me a weirdly similar. Like starting in a location where a big enemy is riding around on horseback. Having large above and underground worlds.
Been playing through Cult of the Lamb mostly. It's pretty good aside from some repetitiveness involving your cult management and dungeons, but it's still got a nice amount of variety to it. Quests are super easy to just ignore if you don't feeling like completing them too. Looking forward to finishing it soon.
No one said running a cult was going to be easy.
Boy it sure is fun though!
Sniper Elite 4, lots of stealthy snipey fun.
X4 Foundations with Star Wars mod, inspired by finishing Star Wars Rebels.
Dying Light The Following DLC, playing co-op with a friend. Fun game, nice game world, difficulty is sorta unpredictable. Sometimes we get one-shotted other times we are parkour battle gods.
Wreckfest, always fun to go smash up some cars and win some races.
Star Wars KOTOR2, learned recently of the more or less essential community patch that will not be making it to the Switch, that reminded me I never finished the game. Pretty sure I finished KOTOR a long time ago.
I had a lot of fun playing the Sniper Elite 4 campaign with a buddy. Looks like it could be solid flying solo too. How are you playing it?
Playing it solo but I've had a lot of fun coop with other versions. Solo is good because you can take as much time as you want.
