Just for the heads up, this thread will probably have a lot of spoilers. I’m gonna try to go vague on spoilers for anybody that hasn’t played Hotline Miami 2. If you’ve played the game, you’ll probably know what I mean, but I’m going to say some purposefully esoteric shit to keep it out of full spoiler territory....
There’s a big moment in SOMA that really stuck with me. Not gonna spoil it. Mostly it’s a horror game but it engages with some pretty intense ethical questions and does so in a way that feels very personal.
Yeah i'm in my 30s and still enjoy playing games, nice way to relax at the end of the day.
Related question though: any good Minecraft channels on youtube that aren't made for children? I'm just starting to get in to minecraft now and it's been super fun, but the youtube playthroughs I've been looking at have all been...seeming to not be catering to an audience my age, to put it politely.
I think this video showcases an interesting aspect of gaming that I never really thought about before. In their case, they play more games for a shorter amount of time vs spending a large portion of their time in few games....
After a few years of mostly playing strategy & tactical games, I fired up Minecraft this weekend. I'd never really given it a proper try before, but it's been refreshing and relaxing. I started on survivor mode but found the enemies kind of annoying, so I switched to peaceful survivor mode and that's been fun so far. Just enjoying the "wander around and build stuff" atmosphere. Honestly makes me want to play more sandbox-y games after a while of mostly playing more intense stuff.
I loved Midnight Suns, but the replayability does suffer because of all the dialogue scenes without easy ways to skip past them. I'm playing a second game now on higher difficulty and still enjoying the combat but it's a bit annoying to have to skip past all those conversations. If they patch in a New Game+ option that makes it easier to skip some of that stuff, it'll really improve the replayability aspect IMO. Still I'll probably do one more campaign with the DLC characters added, I hear some of them are a lot of fun.
Most emotional moments in games? (SPOILERS)
