This might seem stupid, but hear me out....

Just for the heads up, this thread will probably have a lot of spoilers. I’m gonna try to go vague on spoilers for anybody that hasn’t played Hotline Miami 2. If you’ve played the game, you’ll probably know what I mean, but I’m going to say some purposefully esoteric shit to keep it out of full spoiler territory....

By now, it’s well known that Pokémon Go sucks. My biggest problem with it is just how shallow it is. It’s like a minimum viable product with a vaguely addicting gameplay loop....

For me it’s first person puzzle games. I can think of maybe a dozen off the top of my head that came out in the last decade. I especially enjoy when they’re open world. The ability to just quit a puzzle that’s stumped you and go try something else for a little bit is incredibly refreshing.

I love hearing about unique takes on game mechanics. Someone recently convinced me that limited inventories are kind of abused currently and that unlimited inventory systems would give more player choices.

I have never played any of the Dragon Age games, but I just gained access to the GamePass tier that has EA games, so I can play any of them....

Whatcha all playing!...

This might sound super weird, but whenever I actually find time to go “I have like 4 hours to spare, might as well play a game,” my brain just goes “hey, remember that movie you wanted to watch?” or “hey, remember that thing you wanted to wikipedia?” or “Might as well pay rent now, it’s due in 3 days.”...

Pokemon with Guns

How do you call these games that let you macro-manage people/creatures/processes and you can watch your engine run?...

Hey all. Due to a recent influx of meme related posts, we are going to be enforcing a new Meme Monday rule. Meme’s posted outside of Monday will be removed....

I wish all games would just let you save whenever you want to! Why is using checkpoints and auto saves so common?...

I forgot where I first heard about it, I think my brother may have told me about it....

I’ve been eyeing this controller for quite a while and before jumping the gun I saw that it wasn’t advertised as being compatible with Android for some reason despite having bluetooth....

I’ve seen some videos and guides but a lot of them are dated back multiple years....

I was banned on the Diablo Gaming forum for the following post: [Title: Rod Fergusson ousted as Diablo 4 GM.][Text: Bye Rod, wouldn’t that be nice? Having a GM that doesn’t make weird creepy malignant tunnel jokes and actually can speak to the game?]...

I’m wondering if anyone here knows how to add the summoner archetype to a character AFTER you’ve unlocked it. I have already gone through that ordeal and can select the summoner as a new character. But I’d like to add the summoner to a new gunslinger and don’t know if the grimoire might be available in the ward. I hope...
