Looking for a particular type of RPG

I played Knight's of Pen and Paper (and 2) and enjoyed it quite a bit, even though, I don't usually like turn-based RPGs. And I think I figured out exactly what about that game made me enjoy it - there's no walking. I mean, there's no world, where you control a single character and can move in any direction, all there is is a...

Share Your Favorite Skyrim Mods

Skyrim gets some hate these days, since it was first released in 2011 and although Bethesda is supposedly working on Elder Scrolls VI, we've seen practically nothing of the game. However, you have to admit that Skyrim is still around for a reason: it's fun, especially if you mod it, and new mods get released all the time. Since...

A Link to the Past is too hard?

I don't know if this is the right community for this, so I am sorry if it shouldn't go here. I am currently playing through a link to the past for the first time and have noticed a steep increase in difficulty once I unlocked the dark world. The dark palace was okay but I am honestly kinda stuck at the swamp palace. I would love...

Pokemon Progression: Roadblocks?

So I'm currently playing through Pokemon Violet and I am enjoying. However, I've noticed something during my playthrough semi-recently that I've noticed whenever I play any Pokemon game: the level progression. Now in Pokemon Violet, it's open-world and also up to the player as to what path they take and what order they complete...

Hoping Starfield won't force me into base-building / micromanaging like Fallout 4 did

I loved Fallout 4 but one of my least favorite aspects of it was how it forced me into base building when I pretty much wasn't interested in that aspect of the game. I get Bethesda was doing something new and wanted to show it off, but it was so annoying being so prevalent in a lot of the main missions of that game. I'm really...

What's the latest video game genre rabbit hole you jumped into?

For me it was minesweeper clones. I got frustrated one day and decided to learn how to be good at minesweeper. After beating the medium and large boards a couple times I looked on Steam for minesweeper versions, and turns out there's a whole genre of clones. Some of them are direct clones of the game, while others are very...

Curious of other's thoughts on the term "beat" the game. DAE feel like it's outdated?

This is a weird thought but I'm just curious if anyone else feels this way. I'm 39 and grew up playing games all the way back to the original Atari and I just feel weird about the term "beat" when it comes to finishing games. I don't know why, but I just feel like it's weird to say nowadays. I'm talking specifically about story...
