Shall we take some time to look away from the dumpster fire of modernity and embrace our roots with a bit of vidya discussion? I’d love to have some recommendations of what’s good, and I’m sure others would as well.
I honestly probably already have enough games, but it’s hard to turn down a good sale. So tell me, what should I keep an eye out for?
The whole Yakuza series is now on Steam and they are all excellent games. Start with Yakuza 0. Yakuza 0 has arguably the best story and it has really fun gameplay with tons of content.
I would also recommend Hades. It is a really fun roguelike action game with top tier presentation values.
Love Hades. Honestly I love everything that Supergiant has put out; one of the only developers who I will immediately buy from.
I loved Hades and Transistor. I thought Bastion was good as well.
Thanks for reminding me that I need to pick up the only Supergiant game I don't have yet: Pyre.
Pyre is gorgeous. The gameplay is way to simplistic and seemed tacked on to the rest of the product.
