...OR I will refer to records as "vinyl CDs" like I did last time.
You have been warned.
Don't test me; I will do it!
Current games I have on my sights are:
The original Deus Ex
Ib
Infinity Nikki
Remnant II
Silent Hill II (through emulation)
Dragon's Dogma II
Slay the Princess
ELEX and ELEX 2
Dread Delusion
Daggerfall
Morrowind
Hylics 1 and 2
RuneScape 3 (not RuneScape Classic... I know, I know, don't hurt me!)
Currently playing:
Elden Ring (finishing it)
OMORI (slowly taking my time in finishing it)
Fallout 76 (much better than what it was at launch; if anyone wants to play with me, they may ask me)
Recently finished:
Disco Elysium
Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous (y'all should play both Pathfinder CRPG games)
Love:
CRPGs
MMORPGs (yes, even now)
Open-world games (...yes, even with the over-saturation)
Decision-making
Stealth games
Pacifist runs
Minor horror elements? Eh, idk, nothing, like, over-bearing, ig
Macabre horror (basically, horror that isn't horror; just has the aesthetic)
3D platformers (like Super fucking Mario; you know, the Italian-American voiced by Chris Pratt)
Mods, mods, mods
Not too fucking long; let me finish a game when I want to easily (so, basically, not, like, Persona 5-levels of long, idk)
Anything like Majora's Mask
"Nautical games" (Wind Waker, Dredge, etc.)
"Classic games" (basically, games through emulation)
VR games, oddly enough
"Cozy games"
"girl games" shovel-ware (basically, the precursor to "cozy games"; the type of shit you found on the Nintendo Wii)
Interactivity outside of the actual game (I don't know much about Pokemon Go... but what I do know is Pokemon Go to the polls)
Dungeon crawlers (think: King's Field)
Music with lyrics, idk (I don't know much about Quavo... but what I do know is Quavo go to the polls)
Good music. Banger music, even.
No loading screens; seriously, let me start up a game and just play. I feel like starting up a game nowadays is sometimes a whole process.
Non-Western games (...Eh, tbh, I don't really have a bias, I'm just sort-of interested in how they're developing and what they have to bring... SO think: Chinese, Vietnamese, Russian, Indian, African, Latin American, etc.)
Nintendo games...
...or anything LIKE a Nintendo game (with wacky gameplay, idk)
Autistic games... Okay, so far, I think OMORI is, like, the only "Autistic game" out there, but surprise me.
LGBTQIA+ games
BIPOC character games
... okay, that's all, you don't even have to follow these requirements at all; hell, be a little creative and use your own insight.
Okay... now...
...SHOOT!
(No, wait, put the gun away!)
I wouldn't reccomend Daggerfall. It was revolutionary game back then, but the QoL have been abysmal even then. Currently the game is downright dreary unless you're heavily into very old crpg.
I played ELEX 1, and it was very boring.
Definitely do play Morrowind if you still didn't. Though refer to some modernising mod guides, the game did aged quite a bit but have many mods improving it.
If you didn't played it yet, play Shadow Tactics, literally only stealth game i ever liked.
Tale of Immortal - if you're into wuxia stories you will love it, otherwise pass as it is pretty specific niche game
Wandering Sword: probably best wuxia game out there (or at least in english), this one is in classic jrpg convention.
EMU: Suikoden series. 1-2 definitely, 3-4 optionally, 5 is good again. 1-2 is on PSX, 3-5 on PS2. Crime that this series isn't continued. There is spiritual successor Eiyuden Chronicles but as usual in the case of spiritual successor it ain't it (though it's decent game worth playing on its own merit).
True enough.
What about the total conversation mod for Daggerfall?
The one that updates everything?
No idea did not heard about it.
Ah fair
