My friends and I started an “Indie Game Club” which is similar to a book club but for indie video games. It’s really helped to branch out and try new things that I wouldn’t usually try. And of course, if you finish the game fast enough, you can get back to the one game you have 10000+ hours in. But I’d say probably 1/3 of the games we’ve played I liked so much that I didn’t want to stop playing and go back to my usual and used the whole time to just keep playing. It’s been an excellent experience!
Can I interest you in the blog Buried Treasure? The author reviews small and unknown indie games an there are a lot of pearls to be found
If anyone has half life 2 and is looking for cool experience I strongly recommend Entropy zero, just played the first one and now gonna play through the second one. I won’t lie it’s not perfect at times but it’s nice breath of fresh air.
Wait… is this actually jerma?! where is this from?
The factory must grow.
That was me for a long time. Now it’s guild wars 2.
Ah yes, I will start a new farm on Stardew Valley.
Don’t give yourself carpal tunnel like I did
Find a compelling romhack of a game I’ve already played to death, more like!
Been getting my butt thoroughly handed to me in Super Mario RPG Armageddon…and I’m on the easy mode! But it’s also a lot of fun, and a unique way to play one of my all time favorite games
^^ Every time I play Skyrim
Ah yes, lets do an orc warrior build, and focus on one handed weapons and shields. With a side dabbling of stealth archer.
I always start out with a random race, head in the opposite direction of Riverwood, eat everything I can pick up, and just start making and selling potions lol. Then I use the money to buy iron ore and start crafting daggers and selling those. Along the way, I may take a few side quests for extra cash. Then eventually buy or build a house.
By the time I finally go to Riverwood to start the main game, I’m…a fully Daedric-clad stealth archer. Every time. lol. (I don’t quite have the patience to level smithing to 100 for dragonbone, so I upgrade that along the way of the main quest).
I just finished every ncpd dispatch in cyberpunk. Now the map is clear of everything. I still want a reason to keep loading into Night City but I’m not sure if I want to do an entire playthrough with a different build.
Time for some more Factorio (Or Satisfactory depending on the mood)!
Oh hello again Terraria. Plus I just found out that last year they re-released the first “final update” of the game from 2012 as a beta on steam, basically making it easy to play the old content again. So I’m sure I’ll give that a go this weekend.
Check out Necesse if ever Terraria isn’t scratching the itch
That looks disturbingly easy to get into, although the first gameplay video I looked up was 4 hours long and the guy spent the majority of it rearranging houses in his town XD
Do you play it?
I picked it up a couple of weeks ago and I have something like 50 hours in it. I felt the similarities to Terraria pretty immediately with all of the trinkets/accessories, the bosses mostly all have a drop per class and stuff like that. When I beat the standard progression I hadn’t explored much of the settlement stuff, or potions, or magic or thrown or ranged or summoning. I’m playing as a range focused character now.
I will end up putting too much time into it for sure, but I might still prefer Terraria because I grew up with it.
