Games that stuck with you
I watched a YouTube video about this topic today and thought it was the perfect idea for a post here. It’s pretty straightforward, it’s games you played in the past that you’re still stuck thinking about, or games that taught you a lesson that you’ve held on to....
Monthly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing?
The Force Unleashed I/II was not as fun as I thought
I’m not going to do a detailed write up on this but I’ve always heard that The Force Unleashed was a really good set of Star Wars games that are still worth playing today, if not for the game at least for the story. That wasn’t my experience at all....
Are there any games you're planning to pick up during the Steam and GOG sales?
We’ve got two big sales going on, and I’m currently deciding what I would like to pick up. I’m planning to get Expeditions: Rome since it’s 60% off, and I’m trying to decide if I want to finally get Terra Invicta....
It's almost the week-end, what are you guys going to play? Also, could we have a monthly thread for July?
Perfect Dark recompiled is amazing.
I grew up with goldeneye and perfect dark....
Chrono Trigger (SNES 1995)
I’m born in 1992 so this game is a bit before my time. I started playing it and got completely hooked. It’s an absolutely fantastic game that would still hold up as a quality indie game today....
I am inevitable.

Favourite patient modern game?
A bit of a weird title, but basically what’s a game that’s more than a year old but still considered “modern” that you love? There’s no real strict definition for modern, I’d just like to see some discussion around great games that aren’t quite classics yet (but probably will be one day)....
Tales of Xillia PS3 Thoughts
TL;DR: probably among my favourites in the action-JRPG genre, just for how consistently good everything is. None of the systems in isolation are “the best I’ve ever seen”, but for a 35+ hour game, it’s nice when everything is smooth and enjoyable....
[Meta] Did we drop the "what are you playing" monthly thread? Also, mods haven't been active for a while, should someone take over?
Basically, title
Question: Megami Tensei - Where to start?
I’ve been passingly interested in the Megami Tensei series for a while....

Disappointment with Links Awakening Remake (NSW); what could have been a great game hampered by lacklustre controls.
Recently I borrowed my partner’s copy of Links Awakening for the Nintendo Switch. I understand that many people did not enjoy the remake due to the graphics but I am one of the weirdos who somewhat enjoys the cutesy round graphics with the intense depth of field / forced perspective look. From a pure graphical standpoint I...
Detroit: Become Human
This game was for some time in my watch list, but I have never pulled the plug, and oh boy, was I in for a treat....
NFS OST remade for kids
One of the weird realization for me as I learnt English and listened to authors who contributed to these games, is that many remastered their tracks to exclude swear words and obvious mentions of drugs, or was it EA specialists? NFS Underground and Most Wanted games were filled with rap and metal, but still got rated for teens...
What is the consensus on Super Mario Sunshine?
I always got the feeling that this game was seen as a classic. I never owned a Gamecube growing up, but I’m pretty sure I remember my friend having one and playing Sunshine a bit (although he was way more into Zelda and Smash)....
What free2play game are you currently hooked on?
I know older titles are usually the topic in this community but a lot of the popular f2p games are getting pretty old now too, and if you’re like me you’ve been curious about some of them and even pleasantly surprised now and again....
Fallout Series (Why don’t I like it?)
I think my first Bethesda game was Skyrim and I love Skyrim. I’ve played through Skyrim when it first came out I played through it again in the DLC came out. I played through it again on the switch I have since played through it again on PC. I love Skyrim. I played it so many times and I know it’s a meme to keep re-releasing...
Getting into Civ 6
I got into Civilization rather late with their fifth entry. I was hesitant because as I get older I need more time to game than I do new titles. Still I picked up six with all DLC during the last sale. I have to say I am liking the changes. It was good to wait because Civ does need its DLCs to feel complete....
Is anyone still playing Command and Conquer Generals (+ Zero Hour)?
There’s a certain cheesiness and non-political-correctness that’s refreshing....
Patient gamers, what are your favourite city builders?
As Cities Skylines II still isn’t worth it (the sub has a regular thread about that, in summary: no it’s not: old.reddit.com/…/is_cities_skylines_ii_worth_it_m…) which games scratch your city building itch?
9 years later, I finally played fallout 4
Having dropped New Vegas in the past due to lost interest, I decided to try this game out finally since a friend of mine was having a fallout 3 playthrough himself. It was it 8 bucks, so I figured why not. I have to say, I put way more hours into this game than both other Bethesda games I’ve played through (Skyrim and...
Have win7 laptop. What to play on it?
Have a win 7 mouseless laptop I’d like to put a game on and play for funs. Typically my go to game for olden computers is Heroes of Might and Magic 3 or maybe Civ 4. Any recommendations?...
