What games are y’all playing? Suggestions/Reviews/Thoughts? Hyped up for anything and want to share? I’ve been devouring Dragon Quest XI and Little Witch Nobeta, needed an RPG fix badly! DQ actually greatly benefits from whatever graphic engine they are using, the cartoony style for Toriyama design is great (although he keeps reusing the same faces/archetypes for everything). Nobeta actually harder than dark souls for me, I can’t parry to save my life and am still stuck at the second boss. Also picked up SinOAlice because why not, peeps are still in quarantine here anyway.
Also, can we get a Vidya tag, please?
Honestly I've taken a significant break from playing most modern games. I haven't seen much innovation in gameplay for a decade now, and I've already played most of the exceptions. Now I play DOOM and DOOM II: Hell on Earth through GZDOOM so that I can play all of the mods and wads from 27 years of player created content. It's been phenomenally fun so far. There are maps where you fight 40000 enemies and are brutally difficult, but fun to overcome, demon infighting maps, puzzle maps, and mods to improve the graphics and gore. There's an entire 3D Sonic Game in DOOM somehow thanks to a dedicated modder, an amazing series called The Golden Souls where you play DOOM in Super Mario World with platforming, Mario enemies, and an overworld, and many other complete retoolings of the game from harder maps to different weapons, to completely different games. It's been awesome, and it only cost 5 bucks to get DOOM II so that I could play it all.
