Really? Why's that? Did 2 lose something or it's more of a personal preference/vibes thing?

Yea, the fall sale is actually why I was considering DD2.
Looking at reviews, it seems like a common criticism of the second game is that it's mostly a repeat of the first with a few additions, but also without fixing any of its issues. To people who have played both: is it worth playing the second one? I already have the first, as it was included in a bundle, but never played it. * Thanks everyone for answering! I'll be playing DD first then.

After enjoying Ys I and II, I played Origin, which was hugely disappointing. It just felt so unsatisfying to play, and the single dungeon was boring af. I pushed through hoping at least the story would get interesting, but after almost finishing it again with the second character it never did, so I gave up and dropped it. I'm not sure if I want to try the other games in the series, seeing as this is considered one of, if not the, best.
Literally just started playing Tales of Vesperia (~30 minutes). First impressions are that it looks really nice, the combat feels better than the other Tales I tried (Arise and Berseria) and I'm linking the setting and character designs.

Crimzon Clover's really fun. It's similar to Dodonpachi. Another good one is Ikaruga. It has an interesting mechanic we're you switch colors to absorb bullets.
Avoid Sine Mora and other "euroshmups", they just suck to play.

Continuing Trails, now at Cold Steel (started chapter 3) and it's... bad? It feels like a huge drop in quality from the previous games. The dialogues feel too long and boring, the characters uninteresting and I'm not vibing with the school setting.
Played a couple of hours of Atelier Ryza, which I had accidentally put on hold midway through, and felt lost and confused. I'm not sure if I should restart it or push through.
Played Ys I and currently playing II. The first one was a fun simple adventure, the combat system is kinda weird, as you just run into enemies to damage them, but surprisingly satisfying. The bosses were more annoying than anything. The second one seems to have made the combat more interactive, as there's magic now, and the first two bosses were fun to fight, but the maps are a bit too big and confusing.

Playing through the Trails series, just finished the Crossbell arc which was fantastic.
Tried playing Tales of Arise, but I'm not really liking it. The combat seems fine for now, albeit a bit clunky, but the story started off really weak and after the first lord I'm not really interested. I got Vesperia too, so I might try that.

A few I've played with a friend of mine: the We Were Here series, Portal 2, Monster Hunter World, Factorio and Deep Rock Galactic (which we both didn't like, but it's pretty popular)

hitman 3
Forgot that came out, I should play it. Had a lot of fun with 1 and 2.
This week I played around 12 hours of Bravely Default 2, but dropped it because the boss mechanics (counters) feel anti-fun and like they want a specific party composition, and it feels a bit too grindy for my taste.
Continuing the Trails series with 3rd: it seems interesting, but I'm not sure I like how it's structured, the gameplay feels too disconnected from the story.

This week I finished Trails in the Sky SC which was good, although I enjoyed FC's story's smaller scope more.
Tried playing Sea of Stars, but I felt like the writing was so bad I couldn't play more than like 3 hours. So I started and finished Chrono Trigger over the weekend which was great and I'm surprised it exists on SNES.
Now playing Bravely Default II (just started) .

As someone who plays fighting games only for the multiplayer: I hate having to unlock the characters, as I'd be either forced to play a character I'm not interested in or a mode I don't care about.

As soon as I got a Steam Deck I completely stopped buying Switch games (or playing on Switch in general). Most games are playable on both systems and the prices seem more or less the same (at lest for the ones I'm interested in), but the main advantage for me is being able to move save files between the deck and my PCs.

FFXV, while flawed, is a good game and it's the only one that feels like an actual journey.
Lies of P is better than From's souls games.

I hate the Joycons so much. The clicky buttons are terrible, the split dpad sucks for games that use it for movement, the sticks aren't great either for precision (ignoring the drift issues), and I find them painful to hold.

I've been having trouble focusing on a game and finishing it, but I've recently played God of War (2018) which was quite disappointing, and last week I've played Trails in the Sky which I enjoyed, except for
::: spoiler the incest, which was a bit weird :::
I've also been playing the original FFVII .
_Lory98_ 3 months ago • 100%
Same, I played around 20 hours and dropped it: the gameplay was fun enough but the lack of interaction between the characters was really disappointing and the stories weren't really interesting to me to keep playing.

::: spoiler I searched around the room, completed few puzzles and I got the film roll (which I'm guessing is used to win the game, since the slime says to defeat "him"), but I'm not seeing anything else. :::

Is it the Nintendo Switch OS which is needlessly bloated? It does nothing, how can it be heavier than an actual Linux Distribution?
AFAIK the OS is based on a microkernel and the modules are rather small, so there's probably a lot of overhead for IPC. Also I guess the power management is quite aggressive to increase battery life and lower heat.

What's your build like? I have an i5 6600k and a GTX 1660. I have two displays one connected to the 1660 and the other to the iGPU, so I might have been accidentally using the latter. Wayland seems to not work even on my other PC with a single GPU (3060 ti) tho.

Same experience on Manjaro. Usually really low framerates, constant crashes and Wayland's broken.

Same. No bugs, but it just didn't live up to the hype for me. I dropped it just after starting chapter 2.

Signalis is very good. It's an re1-style survival horror but with a more scifi setting.

Yea it's worth playing now. It's not a masterpiece, but it's fun enough.

For me it's dark souls after the lordvessel. The areas in that section are the worst part of the game IMO.
Also in dmc5 I hate having to play V's missions, luckily you can skip them with the mission select, but you still have to play through them at least once when unlocking a new difficulty.
I also recently replayed cyberpunk 2077 and while I did generally enjoy the game, the ending was a slog and I had to force myself to finish it.

Harvesting food, collecting water, random gathering for materials to craft. I guess it gets better later in the game, but I tried starting it twice and after ~10h I dropped it both times because I was annoyed with the resources.
_Lory98_ 9 months ago • 100%
If they count as survival then survival horror like Resident Evil and Signalis.
Most of the traditional survival games I've played end up being annoying to play because of the constant use of your resources outside of your control and I find gathering for crafting kinda boring. This kinda ruined Subnautica for me, since I was mostly interested in exploring but I had to constantly return to base to do chores.

Luckily on my actual work PC I can use whatever I want, but on other devices I'm forced to use Edge both because of restrictions on what I can install and because there's a lot of internal applications that still rely on vbscript.

I've used it at work since it often is the only installed browser and it feels like it's already infected by toolbars and other malware out of the box.
The new tab page reminds me of the weird ads you see at the bottom of tabloid websites.

Hi, I'm looking for a thin phone cover for my Nord 2. Most of the ones I've tried are bulky and sometimes change the shape of the phone in uncomfortable ways, but I still wanna use a cover to protect the phone, especially from falls. Does anyone have tips on what I should try? Thanks
