One of my two favorite games of all time. I wish I could unlearn how to play. Some of my best memories are scavenging for anything remotely valuable and finding myself somewhere I shouldn't be at that level.

Slay The Spire

ROCK and STONE to the bone

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

That's it lads! Rock and Stone!

Minecraft. It's so dang cozy to me.

KSP with the realism overhaul mod and realistic progression 1.

I just never get over the beauty of seeing a dual centaur upper stage gently drift away from an atlas booster before lighting up those stunning twin blue flames, careening deep in to the abyss of space.

Deus Ex:Human Revolution. I know every part of that game and still find some fun paths/solutions I didn't know about, comforting with a bit of variety every time!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Stellaris. It's been "that game" for me practically as long as I've been into gaming. I've got nearly 1000 hours on Steam alone.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The Binding of Isaac

Or Slay the Spire, if I want a turn based game.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

You should check out Across the Obelisk, it’s a beefed up version of StS and I really think it’s heavily overlooked

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Rome II, Attila, and Rimworld

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

JUPITER gives us STRENGTH!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Black Mesa. It's just my go-to game when I'm burned out from work/life. It's comfy for me to play, doesn't require my full attention, I can have videos on in the background, and I just love going through it over and over.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

That’s paradox map painting games for me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Final Fantasy games. I've replayed FFV and VIII, restarted X and XII, and started XVI within the last year.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

i keep playing BF 2042 when i’m not sure what to play

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

You should try battlebit

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Sea of Thieves with my SO lately, previously Earth Defense Force with her as well.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Advance wars and anno 1404

It was the sims 2 but after the sims dlc started getting ridiculous I ended up finding rimworld which I like much better.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Huh, rimworld is kind of like sims 2 if you think about it. You control a bunch of hapless goons, build nice houses for them, and orchestrate their tragic demises.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

No need to change the meme, heroes 3 it is. A few other games as well but heroes doesn't get old.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Looks at 1000 hours of Arma 3.

Just one more King of the Hill match.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

That be Binding of Isaac for me. I have 1000 games installed so it's even harder to get lost.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Lifetime? RuneScape (oldschool, none of the rs3 stuff)

Within the last 5 or so years? Insurgency (mainly Sandstorm) Hits the perfect blend of realistic shooter with fast paced action. I also exclusively play coop where you’re on a team with other real people and you’re playing against a team of bots. Nice and easy-going. You aren’t getting all pissed off and mad at someone on the other team and the modded servers are really fun

The Long Dark

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Counter Strike: Source

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Currently, 7 Days to Die, though I don't like where it's heading.

It's varied over the years and included Total Annihilation, Wow, Dwarf Fortress and Rimworld among others.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah it’s Europe 1400: the guild for me too. Love that game and can’t get behind the second or third game. I loved to play it over lan with my friends.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

It used to be an old CCG called Alteil, probably have 1k+ hours on that. After playing bg3 this week, defs bg3, but I do have a habit of wafting around a bunch of crpgs.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Funnily enough, it's Heroes 3 for me too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Me too, finally had to uninstall it to get me to do something else.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

For me it's either FFXIV or Armello ATM.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

For me, it's any of the Total War games I like, or Battlefield 1, or Left 4 Dead 2, or any From Soulslike.

I like to call them evergreen games, because I'm a total snob. The kinds of games that you can always go back to no matter how long it's been, that you always know how to play by instinct at this point, that always entertain, feel weirdly comfy and make for great choices when you don't know what you wanna do. God bless them.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

KSP, for sure

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Spelunky 2.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I bounce around between three or so.

I feel like I can always find something to do in Beatsaber, whether trying to beat my own scores or trying new modes or new modded songs.

Risk of Rain 2 is also great for mindless entertainment and trying new things.

Distance. It's sort of a racing game but with a story? It gets hard as hell but it's tons of fun and the music is great. It's criminally underplayed in my opinion

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Risk of Rain 2

I tried this one but I couldn't get into it. I just kept getting overwhelmed by enemies and dying and I couldn't figure out why and gave up.
