reddit games you fell for
>>719353976I'm in the quarry right now and I feel like quitting. It's hard to get past enemies when that miasma thing reduces your max health to a minimumam I supposed to do something else first?
>>7193539761) Stellar Blade - too easy, yellow paint, boring levels, boring fetch quests2) Another Crab's Treasure - pure slop, aussie turd, reddit humor3) Hifi Rush - 1 level repeated 30 times, full of DEI4) Dragons Dogma 2 5) Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart6) Dead Space Remake
>>719354012Nope, the solution to miasma is inside the mine
>>719354012Literally dodge and you'll find the solution in minutes
>>719353976Mogs the witnessMogs Animal WellMogs any zelda after OoT except Majora'sTunic is simply a good game.And the fact all of it is inside of the game just makes it better than most ARGs dogshits
Got into walking simulators with What Remains of Edith Finch and heard how good Gone Home was.I was so goddawm disappointed how shit it is. Never played walking simulators again.Assets used over and over so the house is fucking boring to explore. Story is "hurr durr how mysteric is our lesbian daugther". I fucking hate that game so much and demand my 3 hours of lifetime back from the devs!
>>719353976That game blew me away. Played the game blind (as intended), not expecting much, but it turned out to be one of the best games I had played in a long while. On topic though, Disco Elysium was just unplayable garbage. Thought it was a video game but it turned out to be a really boring book.
>>719353976tunic was incredible the only problem was that the ending was fucking shit
>>719355345You should have gone for the good ending then.
so is op wrong? it looks really good.
>>719353976This is weird, this is my first time seeing this thread and I just started playing today.And I don't think I've seen any threads about it recently or on youtube either.
>>719355565Puzzles are fun to solveCombat is mediocre
>>719353976I beat the final boss. Should I go back and do the meta shit?
>>719354889This makes me wary of playing Tunic since The Witness and Animal Well were amazing games.
>>719353976Most of the game is enjoyable, finale/endgame scavenger hunt is shit. It's the point where it drops from mystery and discovery to simple yet tedious puzzle grind.
>>719355418the true ending was worse than the main ending. it didn't even have a boss fight.
>>719355789If you didn't solve the golden path then yes.If it was a long time ago then probably not, feels kinda weird to jump into late game puzzles after that long.
>>719355604Imagine animal wellbut you can actually solve it yourself 100%
>>719355634that's good enoughthanks anon
>>719355957Meant for: >>719355821
what's a reddit game
Absolutely fucking terrible, literally nothing happens
>>719355634It's dark souls combat, what do you want.The enemies are difficult but satisfying to kill
>>719356074A game that may or may not be liked here.
>>719356076You find a dead kid who's been missing for years. That's all I remember.
>>719356076take you add meds

>>719353976
>>719356076From the little I gathered from a stream, it's just protag having le manchild moment and going out into nowhere cause his sick wife (who also cucked him, do they ever tell you why she was out late and got back drunk without telling you? You're just supposed to move past that?) got dementia and can't remember him anymore. Kinda shit story.
>>719356076Yeah, this game was just a walking simulator where literally nothing happens and you don't do anything. Absolute garbage. I can't believe people like "games" like this.
But Tunic is actually a good game? Like really good indie game.
>>719356167It's terrible, it's build upon being a faggot that runs away from their problems.It's just hilarious how the game takes for granted that you flirt with your boss and are ready to meet her while I knew since the beginning he should man the fuck up and go to her wife with Alzheimer.It's a story about grief and facing your problems, but there wasn't any conflict to begin with, the solution was clear from the start if you are jot a coward manchild, but the protagonist is and old fat redditor
>>719354012there is a mask that gets rid of the distortion
>>719356359The "main" Tunic game is like a 6/10, really mediocre action adventure experience. With the puzzles it pushes it up to around a 7.5, but the problem is you have to grind through 10 hours of mediocre nonsense to get to any of the parts that are good. It's a tough sell, although it's not a "bad" game so it's doable. Figuring out the language was great though.
>>719356335It's good when you're too drunk to play anything that requires skill.
>>719356398As someone that had to care for sick people for years, I agree. Howtf am I supposed to feel for a guy who's literally abandoning someone ill? If his wife was in a coma or dead it'd be different.
>zero replies again, huh?
>>719356231Wrong thread, Outer Wilds is 4chan and for high IQ individuals
>>719356359the actual gameplay is still derivative and held back by its engine. the game is more of a gimmicky encapsulation of a feeling than a real game in itself, and that fails it. it's still alright and very well designed, but it's no the witness or hyper demon. it's not a peculiarly engrossing game past the surface, and it's a shame.
>>719356185>ass fetish dressup game>most game is cutscenes if you ignore the terrible notice board missions>full focus on accessibility>no real hard mode>puzzles are about moving a box to yellow paint destination or inputting a 6 symbol keycodeyes, a reddit game.
I'm just going to throw in my voice since I knew absolutely nothing about this game before playing it and only pirated it on a whim after stumbling upon its amazing soundtrack on bandcamp; this is one of the best games I've played in a long, long time and should have been GOTY for its release. It is charming and a terrifically designed adventure that is a more worthy successor to Zelda 1 than any of its sequels. Super short, beatable in a weekend, so definitely check it out and don't look up anything else about it.
>>719355946It was a couple months ago but I remember most of it. The Golden path, is that the thing on top of the mountain?
>>719356359it looks like game for kids
>>719353976Luckily it ended up being pretty good in the end.
>>719358303Yeah
>>719358303The golden path is the final puzzle. Personally, it's what ruined the game for me. The length and ultimate repetitiveness of what you're meant to do just took me out of the game. The game became an obvious game with an obvious puzzle.
>>719358383>>719358303If you do want to do it then I will say at the end of the normal game you got the dash ability that lets you cross gaps, that should open up some new things.
>>719353976GTA4
>>719356074Any game that’s good. /v/ only plays gacha and porn games
>>719355228Man I was on tumblr when that game came out and even they ragged on it.
>>719357742Lmao I bet that other guy didn’t even play the game and just jacks off to pictures. Not surprising for a /v/tard
>>719353976I liked it because the pages reminded me of old issues of Nintendo Power
>>719358342It does. It ain't though. Lots of death and torture and other mature themes from what I recall.
Strayliterally no explanation for why it got so gushed over except for HAHA LOOK KITTY. Nothing about it is special
>>719353976that's an e621 game not a reddit game
>>719359315the fact it took the goty from Tunic is disappointing
>>719353976No Mans Sky. I have tried several times to get into that game but it's so boring. It's a sandbox, which is fine, but there isn't any simulation or stakes. I even set everything to the hardest difficulty but I'm doing even more of the same thing.
>>719359685i've given it a few triesi always lose interest. Because literally everywhere is teeming with life it makes everywhere feel the same and and I'm simply not into base building games. I dunno why it even has difficulty levels when the combat is about as surface level as it gets for space vidyas
>>719356074No cowtits or lolis
>>719354562Dead space wasn’t bad, jfc you people just like to be contrarian.It was $15 last winter and worth every penny.Firewatch though. Now that’s a cunty, shitty Reddit game.
>>719353976it's fucking kino what you on?
>>719357742you arent fooling anyone, tranny >>719358975I 100%ed it, faggot
Baldurs Gate 3. Holy shit, the writing was awful, and the world was just a generic fantasy with no interesting lore or history. I hear 1 and 2 have that, but that clearly didn’t carry over.
I'M FUCKING STUCK ON THE LAST TWO FUCKIN TREASURES AND I'M GOING INSANE
>>719353976Risk of Rain 2PalworldBattlebit Remasteredall awful
>>719363313What are you missing?The treasures are where I finally gave up and looked up a guide, and after those is the ARG stuff.
Spyro Reignited Trilogy
>>719363551Don't want any super strong hints but I'm missing the one with the message on the letter and the music one.Kinda really stumped on both.
>>719363761I assumed it was those ones, I missed those and maybe one or two othersI will give you a hint but only read it if you want a hintYou need to translate the text to english to read the note. Yes, it is translatable using the various bits of text found in the game lmao
>>719364086I have already translated the language.It's quite hard since I'm ESL, but what I got still leads me nowhere.
>>719364835Go to the puddle in the overworld and input the message, it's a bit unusual but you'll figure it out. It's not a path
>>719364835For the music puzzle, try referring to page 28 and 34.If this doesn't help I could give a better hint.For the message puzzle, you'll notice it says "Shhh..."In what ways can you be quiet?
>>719353976I'm too dumb for this game, don't know how I played Zelda 1 with only the manual to give you some hints. Well, it was probably just an easier game.I don't remember where I got filtered, I think I was just about to go into the mine/quarry. I remember a high tech area too.Spoil me, does the manual eventually get actually translated or will I have to parse it out to make sense on my own?
>>719365703You'll unironically notice words like "The" and "up" "down" naturally. You really only need to know like 9 words for 99% of the gameFor 100% you need to know like 15The rest of the language is a bonus
>>719365703It does not get translated and you technically do not have to ever translate all of it either.
it was okay but i got tired of it right about when you fight the ghost on top of the tower. i soldiered on until i got to the robot mines and then just stopped because i wasn't have fun anymore.
>>719365703it's already been translated but you have to either look up how the language works or just read the translated document. Pretty creepy stuff.
>>719365703If you can get to the mine/quarry, you're already past the early game filter. Also if you saw the high tech area, you would have remembered a boss.
>>719366324just parry dudefuck the robots though
>>719353976Cyberpunk 2077
>>719366336I don't know how they did it. I tried it and it's way harder than Fez and ESA.
>>719356076It actually had a story instead of le narrator talking about shit while you walk, it had multiple characters who interact with each other and it had an ending with a twist and a mystery You don't have to like it but it isn't low effort trash
>>719366515It's all phonemes, because the developer knew if it was a cipher based language it would be translated way too quickly by a player.
>>719366515I believe there were hints as to how the language works. More than though, people found a second hidden language in the game disguised as music. It gives a link to https://doyoufeartheeyesofthefarshore.co/with the message "do you fear the eyes of the dark shore".really brilliant game.
>>719353976Hollow Knight and it isn't even close.
>>719356076If you thought nothing happened, you missed the point.
>>719363072>Baldurs Gate 3in the running for potentially being the most reddit game ever made
>>719356491She's not there anymore you dope. No one would appreciate him taking care of a non-person.
Tried it on PS4 because PS+ offered it awhile back. Stopped 30min in because the game, despite it's extremely basic visuals, had the hardest fucking time holding 60fps.Indies can't fucking program.
>>719366827I don't recall any sort of hidden audio language when I figured out the URL puzzle, unless you mean it was some ARG thing on the webpage itselfTranslating the language is I think extremely reasonable to do without any outside help but you should be prepared to spend a few hours on it. Once you've figured out all the pieces I think it's OK to just look at the translated manual since it's just tedium at that point.
>>719353976>every game i don't like is reddit
>>719367331The game runs well though. That's can't be.
>>719366420i was, the feeling of it dragging on got worse and worse though. even if it was a more casual game, i'd still have dropped it because it wasn't doing anything to keep me interested but bump up the difficulty and tease some kind of cryptic metanarrative that i really couldn't have given less of a shit about.
>>719367331Damn. The game ran at a flawless 60fps on the Steam Deck even. Sucks.>>719367057People with Alzheimers or dementia need more help than anyone else. Imagine being completely lost everywhere you go and not being able to remember a thing every passing minute. How would you survive without someone else to be your eyes, ears, brain, mouth, etc
>>719367387yes
>>719367505They do need help, but that help doesn't always come in the form of a previous lover who shouldn't be shackled down by something uncontrollable.
>>719367349It's how the spoken language of Tunic was deciphered. The characters aren't making random noises. It's an actual language. The dev put way more work into the game than you realize.https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1WHDcgFHfOgOIZ4Mi-jNAbOrooAfDvY5Aqqfx9kFESew/edit?gid=0#gid=0you can use the bottom tabs to see what's been translated so far
>>719367461Maybe Hollow Knight is more your speed
>>719355228The worst part is how fucking trivial the reveal of the story is. >mom and dad are somewhat conservative>dont think their oldest daughter is lesbian and think its a phase>older sister is on her way to college but run away with her girlfriend instead.And that's it.I mean come the fuck on. Yeah it's a bit shit that your older sister ran away, but she's a grown fucking woman, she can get a fucking minimum wage job. It's not like she's on the street sucking dick for crack, jesus fucking christ. Like she's probably going to call you in a couple of months.Was this really worth making a fucking game about?>Never played walking simulators again.Can recommed NaissanceE, pretty unpretentious, no story. Just walking through mazes of weird, massive architecture with a little bit of platforming sprinkled on top.
>>719367538scrubs is reddit
>>719367887not a fan of side-scrolling games desu. i think noita is the only exception to that.
>>719356231>4chaouter Wilds>RedditPick one
>>719368008yes
>>719368104Noita is unironically a dogshit game, but it's pretty good for making webms for people that will never play it.t. amulet wearer
>>719367691what if that person were the very last shreds of familiarity or comfort though? Abandonment in that kind of darkness would put the afflicted into an absolute abyss, being lost in a way you can't even imagine. I guess it comes down to honor in the end. Welp. I guess I'll play Firewatch at some point.
>>719355228>"I'm a retarded faggot but now I know I'm a retarded faggot!"Duly noted.
>>719353976Before tunic there was ocean horn.Before that there was darksiders.Both were absolute garbage and I quit 20 minutes in from incredible boredom.Literally every "zelda-like" is pure fucking shit any I swear im the only person on the planet that knows what the fuck even makes zelda work. You can copy-fucking-paste zelda into another setting like tunic and it still sucks because you forgot that zelda gets its feel from being japanese humour filtered through european conservatism and japanese philosophy filtered through a video game.You know whats ACTUALLY zelda-like?Labyrinth and Dark Crystal.The secret to making a live action zelda movie is to give it to the guys who made the dark crystal tv show, because those guys understand jim henson, and jim henson is the only white man that saw the world the same way miyazaki does, the same way satoshi kon did, the same way that miyamoto, aonuma, and fujibayashi (and honestly fujibayashi isnt as good as any of the rest of them, but his track record makes me think he's got potential)So yeah, every single "zelda-like" is going to be redditslop because reddit if full of retards who unironically claim zelda is "a game about puzzles, bro"
>>719368331>zelda gets its feel from being japanese humourStopped reading there
>>719353976My GF loved playing this game with me, finding all the golden path secrets was so coolIt also convinced her to finally give Zelda a try. We beat Link's Awakening together. (Tunic was better)We're playing through Wind Waker now
>>719368206i quite enjoy it. nice way to take a 40 minute break from work.
>>719368007>NaissanceEIs the ending worth it?
>>719368007to some people being a lesbian is worse than sucking dick for crack
>>719368701>Is the ending worth it?well its a game about getting from point A to point B. You get to point B if that's what you're after, but there isnt a story as much as it's just a world you explore.
>>719368434>>719358142samenigger, I can tell because he thinks zelda is "le puzzle box".By the way retard, zelda 1 has no puzzles, it has a handful of riddles and thats it, stop pretending you know anything.
>>719369401sokoban is literally a puzzlelost woods can be arguedthat's just the start
>>719370026There's no sokoban in Zelda 1.
>>719370026>lost woods can be arguedThe old woman literally tells you, guessing it until you get it right isnt a puzzle ffs.Then this: >>719370448You could have at least used the example of the bombable walls, damn.
>>719354562>Hifi RushYou have to admit that's on you.
>>719368434why would you stop reading the ramblings of an insane person
>>719369401It didn't have any japanese humour either.
>redditors first everything
>>719354562Why play a remake when there's the original?
It is so embarrassing this is considered one of the most thought provoking games in all of gaming
>>719355228Gone Home was a major turning point for me.I think it single handedly made me realise that gaming journalists were all corrupt. Specifically when i saw Danielle from polygon give it a 10/10, when she was literally on a weekly podcast with the director of the game Steve Gaynor. Chris Remo (also on the show) released a statement saying "there is absolutely no conflict of interest here"..... FUCK OFF.
>>719368007The worst part was the game was marketed as some sort of spooky ghost house horror story...
>>719363497Battlebit during the first three months was a blast but the devs are retarded and actively made an effort to kill it
>>719353976is this game just blatantly ripping off zelda? cause that's what it looks like
>>719372264**oh and Chris Remo did the music for the game too. Unbelievable.
>>719356202What is Oneshot even about? It seems like some Undertale knockoff in walking sim form. Also surprised no one's mentioned Everhood in this thread.
>>719371234>Le war is...le bad?!Kinda funny to think every fucking war game had that message but this one is special because reasons
so glad I pirated this shite
>>719356076Absolutely everyone was shitting on this at release and somehow it developed a following of dipshits who insist it's actually good.
>>719355228>heard how good Gone Home waslmaolol
>>719353976>reddit games you fell forstraySea of starsAlan wake iiLoz - alltp, botw, totk, links awakeningRe5rElden ringJak & daxterAny n64 gameAny bingtendo game
>>719373763It's specifically special because it was overt about it. That's the point. People miss the message unless you hit them up over the head with it. Knowing is not the same as believing.
>>719354889> mogs other reddit games
Ocarina of timeAny Pokemon slop3D Mario games
>>719354012Maybe you ran into the same retardation I ran into? Press LB in front of the save statue.I legit did not know about that my first playthrough and got 99% of the way to defeating the librarian before rage quitting at how "Dark Souls" the combat felt.
>>719356074Unique on the surface and adequate on presentation, but shallow in depth and weak execution. I think Tunic actually fits that pretty well, personally. Game sort of quickly becomes a one-trick pony for the last two-thirds of the game, and you never really experience anything near what the first third almost gets close to.
>>719370448The closet thing Zelda 1 has to puzzles is pushing random blocks / burning random trees/ bombing random walls / using flute on random screen. Oh, and you have to give goriya the bait.
>>719356074Your favourite gayme.
>>719375690Nobody misses the "message" of the game, the "message" is just really retarded. It has the same failings of the "twist" of Bioshock One. "Would you kindly" loses any and all meaning when the game literally gives you 0 other choice to engage with it. SpecOps The Line locks you in a windowless room with one exit, hands you the key, and tells you to unlock it and get out of it. When you eventually do, it starts harassing you for being a shitty person for choosing to unlock the door. That's ham-handed and retarded.
>>719378528All you did was counter the reddit take with yet another reddit take.Theres always one of you idiots.
>>719355228Gone Homo.
>>719378897>I-it's reddit! Because I say it is!What's reddit about it, buffoon?
>>719353976Terraria
>>719353976I remember when people found early art of the fox as a diaperfur.
>>719378528The message of the game is that it's cool to frame what looks like a simplistic generic cover shooter at first glance with the idea that the protagonist isn't really a good person, and his mind is falling apart from the things he's doing and his own mental justifications for them are crashing against reality.Bioshock fails because the twist isn't ultimately interesting, just like the rest of the game. You don't desire player agency, you just get mad when you're railroaded, which means linear stories aren't for you.
>>719370881Automata is a perfectly decent game until you get to the dogshit tacked on corpo ending that retroactively ruins the whole experience. It would've been hard to top Nier, but it's a real shame the suits won and got to sanitize the whole thing. DoD3 was better than Automata, and DoD3 was shit.
>>719378528You had the choice to not play.
>>719354562I quite liked Ratchet
Definitely Disco Elysium, Undertale would be the close runner up. It's nothing but completely boring commie propaganda.
>>719380140>The message of the game is that it's cool to frameUtter horseshit. The message is extremely unsubtle and hammered into you, as evidenced by the fact that people still try this retarded defense: >>719380303>You don't desire player agency, you just get mad when you're railroaded, which means linear stories aren't for you.My favorite Final Fantasy is X and I think it's a stroke of genius. You do not understand what you are talking about.
>>719381026I mean, he's right. If you were so upset by the idea of playing as an evil character, you could've stopped playing. >My favorite Final Fantasy is XShit, I didn't know you were a retard, my bad. They should have a little warning light above your posts or something so people don't accidentally think you're a real person.
>>719381556>If you were so upset by the idea of playing as an evil characterYou entirely missed the point of bringing up BioShock. The message is utterly retarded and pointless if you literally cannot deviate from the actions. That's exactly why BioShock, as the other anon put it, failed to be interesting.
>>719381664Narratively, the character breaks free of the mind control after that point. The problem with Bioshock isn't that you're playing as the Manchurian candidate, it's that it's fucking boring and the story is stupid. The game would not be any more interesting if you could instead choose to keep being mind controlled and have Atlas tell you to throw yourself off a bridge now you're no longer useful.What makes FFX's message good to you, given you can't deviate from the actions of the story? It's fine to go "I didn't enjoy Spec Ops' story". It's retarded to go "I didn't like it because they made ME burn all those civs with white phosphorus and that made me FEEL bad and it's LAME that I couldn't tell the game NOT to do it!".
>>719353976i always dropped this game after playing for an hour or 2
