The storyline and level design on those games is amazing. They were a ton of fun the first time through and I find myself picking them up again every few years and I still enjoy them.
Agreed! I love how different you can play each level as well. Although I generally end up murdering everyone after I mistakenly alert a guard …
It’s also one of only a few games I spent the time to read all the fun “flavor text” notes and books. That and “Control” - both have solid extras that actually add to the story and make you feel immersed in the world.
Hah, I also failed many times and alerted the guards and ended up having to kill everyone. Getting through some of the levels while maintaining stealth can be really tricky.
I still need to check out Control. I agree that the readings in Dishonored were pretty interesting.
Everyone loves Baldur’s gate3 and with good reason. But if you want a different love letter to the originals, I highly recommend pillars of eternity: …steampowered.com/…/Pillars_of_Eternity_II_Deadfi…
It’s a big party based RPG with an original setting and system. Good story. Great characters. Many interesting classes. Sheds a lot of dnd-isms, but you can still see the heritage.
I like the second more than the first, but they’re both good. The second switched to per-encounter powers instead of per-rest, so you don’t need to camp or hit the inn nearly so often.
Also I really want them to make a third game. Maybe if more people buy it they will!
Pillars hit a steam sale when I got into Critical Role and there were additional sales during the pandemic (maybe in response to new customer volume) that convinced me to get the sequel. However, I’m sitting on ten durable 1060s (2/6 in use desktop, 3/4 laptop(m)) and just have them running video along with wutevs. Got one watering plants that can also give me a decent video stream under its own power, which is handy.
Sure is, the mod is on nexusmods I think and it’s called more company. Since everyone needs to install it, I suggest also looking into other mods like alternate outfits and such
Yup. And other software like blender that’s also on steam, or vtuber studio. Like I’m not trying to hide my activity but I don’t need a steam message from someone every time you open a solo-use software.
Well, I'm not sure this is what you're looking for but Tabletop Simulator is a board game simulator that has a diverse category of games in its workshop mod. I'm sure a lot of the games can be played with 5 players.
I really love co-op games but I don’t have many gamer friends and playing with randos who quit mid-game or constantly throw out insults isn’t much fun…
