Topic: What (Non-PS4) game are you playing??

@kyleforrester87 The combat’s really fluid and the dash feels great. My only issue is that I’m using a DS4, where pressing R2 is just slightly uncomfortable while using square and X so I probably don’t use the gun as much as I should because the laser’s great and the shotgun was really useful for the west boss.

@nessisonett yeah I generally use the pistol and the laser. Try doing the dash challenge in the move shop lol

Grenades are very handy too!

I've decided to just use the latest update to Silent Hill 2 Enhanced Edition as I really want to play it again after finishing the first game. The updates are really impressive so if anyone's interested the link's here.

@KratosMD Blasphemy! Blasphemy, I tell you! starts lighting pyre

I played Layton's Mystery Journey: Katrielle & The Millionaires' Conspiracy on my iPad and loved it. It was different than the previous Layton games and the graphics were much improved. Overall, I can’t recommend the game highly enough.

Oh man Silent Hill 2 still holds up. I think it’s probably the best game ever made, there’s 0 bloat and every minute counts. Currently in [REDACTED DUE TO IT BEING AN ANSWER IN MY QUIZ] and yeah, I admit to actually screaming out loud. Laura is a wee brat though, locking me in that room. Someone parent that girl properly.

@Arugula A happy 10th birthday for the game yesterday as well!

@nessisonett Yeah that game seriously freaked me out when I played it when it came out, more so than any other game up until then. Pyramid Head is such an iconic enemy in video gaming for me.

@nessisonett Yep, one of my all-time faves. Such great memories of that one

@KratosMD Mercenary Kings sucks royally, get Huntdown instead!

@KratosMD I got it on PS4. It’s basically 4 locations with something like 6 stages per location, it’s a relatively short game but it does get pretty challenging at points, though I haven’t been overwhelmed. I say this going into the final location

It’s a very polished experience, though.

I’ve been playing GTA III, I’ve only ever played San Andreas and V and I’m really enjoying it. I’m doing a good job in lockdown of playing games I should have played a long time ago. Both this and Limbo are games I’m glad I’ve got round to in the last few days.

@RogerRoger Strange, I had the exact opposite reaction!

Demon Gaze was OK for a DRPG on the Vita. Better than Dungeon Travelers 2, anyway, which had insane levels of fanservice and some terribly bland characters who keep talking to you. I liked it enough to finish it.

In a sad twist of fate, though, the cute elf guy from the original kinda... lets himself go in the sequel.

Then again, Etrian Odyssey perma-ruined me on other dungeon crawlers. Nothing in the genre even begins to compare to that series.

On topic: I'm playing something on my Switch called Runner3, and it's an auto-runner indistinguishable from something I'd play on a mobile device. I think the gameplay is supposed to be in time with the music or something, but the audio is seriously nothing to write home about. That's a problem I notice with a lot of indie rhythm-type games (such as the bland Crypt of the NecroDancer).

Also, the bonus "impossible levels" have really wack difficulty balancing.

I figure I'll play a level a day and eventually be done with it.

@Ralizah The fat elf was hilarious in the sequel. I really enjoy Demon Gaze 2 but it wasn’t really worth going back to play the first game.

@Ralizah Oh man, looks like a certain somebody from Danganronpa 😂😂

@nessisonett He really does. Honestly, all he's missing is the gopher face and a fixation on anime porn.

@Ryall I stopped one or two post-game bosses short of obtaining the platinum in the original, but I mostly enjoyed my time with it. I like how vocaloid-heavy the music is in both.

@Ralizah Oh no I was more referring to a certain returning character in the 2nd game that had a similar transformation! Still one of the strangest moments in gaming for me, seeing his... new look for the first time.

@nessisonett Ah, you mean fat Byakuya. Yeah, the transformation is reminiscent of that, for sure. The body reminds me a lot more of Hifumi, though: especially with those stubby little legs.

@KratosMD Fantasy Life is great, it’s anything but simple. Loads of depth, loads of grinding (which I love) and loads of content.
