I'm fascinated by SCP: Containment Breach (The game is extremely frustrating at parts, even on Easy difficulty) A month ago I have looked into Minetest (especially the Hades game mode, which plays on a volcanic planet) What are you playing?
>1 annathecrow @ 2020/12/20 23:09
>>OP I'm veeeeery sloooowly working through Knights of the Old Republic. It's ancient, but I'm enjoying it. It helps that the difficulty isn't too high (I'm a casual player at best and my gamer reflexes... aren't, lol.) Honestly, the only reason I'm playing it now is that the two KOTOR games were on sale and nostalgia hit hard :D I used to have a poster of KOTOR II as a kid (it came with a gaming mag), but never actually got to play it. At least now I don't have to care about the hardware requirements XD
>2 kmeow @ 2020/12/21 21:42
>>OP All the Old Republic games were great, even the MMO. I played KOTOR2 when it was released, and while the story and characters were pretty involving the game itself was plagued by crash bugs (probably long fixed). As for myself, I've been playing Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate. Lots of fun, but weird after coming off of Monster Hunter World as it's missing many of the innovations of that game.
>3 dgy @ 2020/12/21 22:24
>>2 Those bugs were never fixed, i'm sad to say. way way back in the day a team came together to try and fix these bugs and restore content back into the game (there was a ton of content in the game files that was ready to be played, but not "linked" into the rest of the game). But at some point there was some huge drama and accusations and it all ended. i don't know if anything else happened after that... As for playing... My gaming pc is 10 years old, so it's mostly stuff that still runs on it nicely, when i feel like a pc game. Outside of that, i have a lot of emulators on the rpi

Just started playing .hack//fragment on the netslum server. I played the .hack// games as a kid and was always bummed that the 'mmo' version was never released in the west. I was lamenting the fact that Bandai Namco was probably never going to let Cyber Connect 2 make another .hack game to some friends and decided to see if there was any progress on an english patch/ fan server. The game is super crusty, but it scratches a massive nostalgia itch for sure.

I'm playing ULTRAKILL right now -- it's an amazing game! It's like classic DOOM but faster, bloodier and more creative... it's probably the most fun I've had playing a first-person shooter game so far. The demo is free on itch.io, and it works natively on Linux, so I would definitely recommend it!
>9 rmgr @ 2021/02/02 23:13
>>8 That ticks basically all of my boxes. I'm going to have to pick that up!
>10 teaboo @ 2021/02/03 20:30
>>8 I grabbed this game because of this post. The game feels like an alternate answer to the problem Doom 2016 tried to solve. Compared to the glory kill system in Doom 2016, the blood system in ULTRAKILL feels more connected to the rest of the gameplay. The movement feels natural and help to close the distance to position for a kill without holding your hand. The blood mechanic feels like something that could be added to Brutal Doom and feel at home.

I'm really into Sea of Thieves. It's sort of like an MMO, where you sail around collecting treasue and fighting skeletons, and you can go attack someone else on the server to take their treasure, and if you decide to mind your own buisiness, you need to be aware of your surroundings and make sure nobody's sneaking up on you to go all Jack Sparrow on ya while you're trying to sell your spoils. Played best with friends so that you can sing sea shanties and have a swashbuckling time.

Pathfinder: Kingmaker went on sale a little while ago; and after a false start (why bother putting casters in the game, who need to rest up to replenish spells, if there's going to be a time limit?) I'm well into the prologue. Having a good time, but makes me nostalgic for *actual* P&P play. About a decade ago I was an active member of the local PFS, and had my own group working its way through the actual P&P Kingmaker campaign. As these things go, the group fell apart when one player decided that their specific minimax build, and arguing about the rules it abuses to make it work, was the only means by which s/he could have a good time.

I dusted off Lord of the Rings Online. I joined as a pre-order back in the day and paid for the lifetime subscription up front. I stopped playing about 8 or 9 years ago and forgot about it until a friend picked it up recently. They've added so much new content it's ridiculous. And, since I had that lifetime jibby-jab, apparently I've been acquiring LOTRO points this whole time. I was able to log in, create a new character, bump it up to level 120 and buy literally everything in the in-game store with the point I'd acquired. Now I just need to remember how to play.

I don't play computer games since 2017 when my last good computer died. In late 2017 I've bought a PS4 instead of building another computer, but I had no time to play it too much, the only game I've played kind of often on it was For Honor. In 2019 I've sold my PS4 since I was going abroad, and I've bought a N2DSXL and a PS Vita, for if I ever want to play something I could since the PS4 would be hard to carry on bags travelling and moving so much. Unfortunately I didn't played on those too much as well, I don't know what happened, maybe I can't enjoy games anymore without thinking in everything else I need to do? It's almost the same with movies and series, the only one I watch is The Expanse and The Mandalorian, any others and I start to feel guilty about my time.

It's kicking my ass a bit more than KOTOR - the fighting is more difficult and I keep getting getting stuck on quests because I miss something really obvious (like a WHOLE DAMN HALWAY on Peragus, oh lol). I'm having a lot of fun with it, though. Also, we're back in the office now and we've successfully revived our pre-pandemic tradition of playing Counter Strike on slow afternoons (on the clock but boss-approved, yay). You'd think people would like to play even when we were all working from home, but it's not as much fun when you're not sitting in a near-empty open-plan office and listening to your colleague curse two rows over XD

So, I've bought Total War: Shogun 2 as my entry to the Total War series. I still have problems playign as I have too much work to do, and too many things to study, so sometimes I feel guilty of playing. But I'm opening a concession to this one, as sometimes I just want to (or even need to) forget work and studies. So far the game is great, although I'm a "total failure" playing this Total War game, but it's the best strategy game I've played so far. I've bought Shogun 2 because I thought Three Kingdoms wouldn't work on my machine (Macbook Air M1 8GB RAM). Yesterday I discovered that it do works, but I'm already having fun with Shogun 2. But I'm really considering buying Three Kingdoms and Warhammer next, maybe I can invest some time in this series and call it my hobby. I was a huge fun of strategy games, as well as 4X games... Civilization have boring combates. Age of Empires have a fun combat but boring management (and none diplomacy). Total War seems to be the best of both worlds, I can watch my heirs growing up, I can marry my daughters and turn my sons into generals. I can adopt generals of other families as my sons as well. I can trade with, protect and attack other nations. And the combat it's great, as much as I like Age of Empires the combat is good but is a mess... You click on some units and they move to attack in complete disorder. Total War allow you to maintain rigid and organized formations, as well as to give orders to change formation, instead of some guys attacking disorderly you can have your archers in columns or rows, it's just beautiful to see everything orderly and a squad of mounted lancers piercing through a line. :) I fondly recommend this game.

Last game I played before life caught up was Alien: Isolation. As a fan of the original film I highly recommend it - it really captures the vibe, almost too well for a game based on a movie franchise. Also best scares I had in a long time, as it doesn't rely on cliche stuff like jumpscares. Did I mention it's ported to Linux too?
>63 spencerwi @ 2022/07/08 18:51
I started playing the Kingdom Hearts series on PC ironically, because I've heard how bonkers the plot is, but now I think I'm kinda enjoying it? Like, don't get me wrong, the plot is bonkers and the dialogue is often word salad, and it's a weird mishmash of Final-Fantasy-anime-nonsense and Disney-aimed-at-12-year-olds, and the controls of the first game are _terrible_, and some of the spinoffs have unneccesarily obtuse mechanics, but like....I'm on Kingdom Hearts 2 now and it's kinda alright. Like, it's fun enough, and it has enough charm that I'm kinda into it now. Also played through TMNT: Shredder's Revenge. That game just straight-up rules, no irony needed.

Been playing Shipbreaker, but am winding down from it now. It's a fantastic game, great atmosphere and game loop. Now that I've just about completed it though, it kind of makes a couple of promises it never follows through with. That being said, it captured my attention for about 40 hours which is a feat theses days. I think it's because the game loop primary loop is about 20 minutes long which fits into my off and on pattern at the moment. Have to step away frequently from the computer while playing most of the time.

Since it's the start of a new year I feel like going through my most played games of 2024 :) Probably the one I played the most all year round is Halls of Torment. It's a "vampire survivors like". Some people call this genre "reverse bullet hell", where you are the bullet hell and you slay waves and waves of monsters. It's very addictive and fun, and it's my go to casual game. Hades, a game that will make your fingers and hands hurt (at least if you play with a gamepad). I was super impressed with the depth of an "action game" of this kind, plus the art, the voice acting, the story, the gameplay... fantasting came all around. Cyberpunk 2077 + Phantom Liberty. Its a pretty well known game, so I won't say much about it other than it hooked me like few games did. As soon as I completed the main story I started a new game with another character and continued exploring side missions and then went into the DLC, which I am about to finish. Resident Evil Village, it's a gorgeous game and I was so happy when I saw that it ran pretty well on my second-hand mid-range GPU. The story is total bullshit, the acting is pretty ridiculous, but all of that adds to the charm of the game. I didn't finish it because I got stuck pretty near the end, but I already know the ending because some time ago I cheated and watched the full gameplay lol.

Correct commands for Crispy Doom once you copied the IWAD's:
doom() {
crispy-doom -iwad /usr/share/games/doom/freedoom1.wad --mmap -mb 32 "$@"
}
doom2() {
crispy-doom -iwad /usr/share/games/doom/freedoom2.wad --mmap -mb 32 "$@"
}
heretic() {
crispy-heretic -iwad /usr/share/games/doom/blasphem.wad --mmap -mb 32 "$@"
}
Enjoy.
