That said, I've started playing Sekiro again and am realizing something of a trend in... games with RPG elements... that turn me off of them. I don't want to be Geralt. I don't want to be Sekiro. I want to be some jank-ass dude with a shovel of a jawline that decided early in his life (through the character creation screen) that he was going to use maces and fire magic and that was gonna be his life. I want the character I'm playing as to feel like I have any say in its identity, and then have that as the vessel for meeting / interacting with other interesting characters. It feels too much like I'm playing someone else's D&D character and they're really excited about all this cool shit about their character, but I could give two fucks about it and am annoyed by their incessant reminders. | ||

The actual gameplay of witcher 3 was always pretty bland and it hasn't gotten better since release. Hopefully 2077 is a lot more engaging :p A dawn of war 2/company of heroes successor called "Iron Harvest" hit steam a few days ago. If anyone picked it up and is looking for some 1v1's hit me up  | ||

It's in the same universe and it's a great board game. | ||

Yeah I've been pretty happy to re-learn slay the spire and learn hades in the last year. I think the difference is that for both of those games the mechanics are, like, a core part of the game (e.g. it's obvious what I need to care about / what I don't) and also at any point the set of decisions you're making is pretty constrained relative to a skill tree or w.e. idk preferences change, its weird to get old lol | ||

COMPLETELY forgot that Passive was the original OP of that thread lmao. Playing Dayz with TLers back then is pretty much what got me active on the site to begin with (even though I lurked for literal years). Aha man that feels like a lifetime ago. Back then, I really thought that dayz was the beginning of a new genre of mmo, but instead it just inspired a bunch of battle royales On September 05 2020 11:29 eieio wrote: Yeah I've been pretty happy to re-learn slay the spire and learn hades in the last year.

Games like that are a lot more consumable too. I used to have infinite patience for JRPGs but nowadays if I try to play them I need to run them on x5 speed with cheatengine. | ||
