What is THAT video game you wish you had played sooner?
>>719684429Ck2
>>719684429Warframe.
It's on me for not getting the consoles/games I wanted as soon as I got my first job but at least by the time I finish Prime 3 the wait for 4 won't be so long
dungeon travelers 2. wrote it off as vita weeb slop but it turns out the gameplay was actually good.
>>719684684By the time you finish prime 3 you probably won't have any interest in 4. 3 fucking sucks.
>>719684429Diablo 2. I think this game would have ruined my life if i played it while I was still in school.
>>719684429Most of the games I got into when I first got a PC were already out for quite a while. I wish I had gotten into them sooner, but I was stuck on an Xbox 360. Games like Team Fortress 2, GMOD, etc.FOMO is joked about and a lot of the time it really isn't worth it, but it genuinely is something else to be invested in a game from its beginning and it actually turning into something beloved, even if that game gets raped and ends up being shit (like TF2).
I wont say cuz you faggots have terrible taste and I dont want you shitting up the communities
>>719684429Melty Blood Actress Again. I very vividly remember the first day I played it. Me and some others bought it for cheap to get hyped for Lumina. We all liked Under Night to an extent so I believe that was the reason for us to try it out. I picked Tohno because I'm a shotofag, and the second I landed his teleport command grab, I said out loud "OH MY GOD THAT'S FUCKING SICK" To this day it's now one of my favorite fighters.
>>719684765I've heard various complaints over the years, yeah. Got a pretty high tolerance for design decisions so long as I'm getting to experience more of a setting. Personally anyway. Recommending it to others later is another matter.
>>719684901People deserve to know. It could be a game the next anon sinks a thousand hours into.
>>7196847653 is good, it's just not on the God level of 1/2
>>719684429Animal Crossing. By the time I started playing WW the community was already dying
>>719684429probably nothing even really good old games I feel like I appreciate more now since I would probably just take them for granted back then
Mount & bladei remember i tried to play it a real long time ago and it crashed and I never bothered to follow up with it. didn't play it till it was free on ps4 and I was instantly hooked
the ys series
>>719684624>>719684798These two as well as Space Marine 1 and VTMB.
>>719684429Kingdom Hearts
>>719684429Unironically the Trails of series. I always kinda shrugged it off because I didn't like Ys and thought it would be more of the same. Boy was I fucking wrong.
>>719684429monster hunter
>>719684429Touhou. I'm too old to git gud now
>>719684429Kenshi.
>>719686778i can only imagine the older you get the better being a touhou fan is since the entire gimmick is apparently to be as embarrassing a waste of space as possible
>>719684429Classic CRPGs like Planescape and the original Fallouts. I keep bouncing off of the gameplay trying to get into them today.
>>719686705How does Tokyo Xanadu compare? I started playing it on the hardest difficulty so all of the bosses are sponges, but otherwise it's alright.
VTMB
>>719684429IIDX. Just got into it about a month ago and I been having a blast playing it pretty much every day now. I could only do level 4s easily, most of 5s, and maybe a few 6s. I can't believe how amazing this game is and I'm upset the game never had a following on the west.
>>719687391Haven played that yet. Was gonna get around to it after I finished Trails to Azure
>>719684429Rain WorldBaba Is YouBat to the HeavensFactorioDevil Daggers
>>719684429More recent, but BG3I finally started playing it last week, and I'm ashamed to say that the shit is practically running from the moment I start up to when I finally turn my pc off.
>>719684429My picHonestly though I wish I played pretty much every Irem game sooner. Fucking games have SOUL. Basically every single one of their RPG games likes to give you like 10 dialog options and they can change the scenarios.
>>719687096You've made a terribly embarrassing post.How unfortunate, I hope you mature.
>>719684429>SplatoonWatched my brother play 1 a bunch when it came out, but only got into playing it well after support ended. Wish I jumped in during its heyday, can never consider myself an ogfag>PataponEveryone and their damn mother kept shilling me on this for most of my life but was too lazy to actually check it out. Only did recently with that remake and it turns out they were 100% right. Issue is now I got no one to talk about it with. Gonna get it for a friend so they can play it and I can talk about it with them, it’s up their alley
>>719684429unironically war thunder. I missed out on a few good vehicles
>tfw didnt get to play planetside 2 while it was popular
>>719684429Fortnite
>>719684429>Monster hunter >Warband>Dragon's dogma >Ps2 titlesI only played shit gta games in my childhood and discovered most of the great games after high school
>>719684429Talos principle. Didn’t play it until 2021, when it became a top 5 game for me.
I wanted to experience monster hunter 3u and 4u day 1 when it has a decent playerbase for online play because 3ds mh is pretty much dead these
>>719684429Super Metroid. Played it for the first time like last year lmao.
>>719684429WOW and Halo. I spent so much time shitting on them in my 20s out of resentment over quake and ut being dead and guildwars getting no attention, but having played both with classic and MCC they were very fun and seeing old videos of the hype I kinda wish I was there for it.
>>719687631Devil daggers? I bought that game but it was too hard and hurt my eyes.
>>719686610I beat most of the games over the summer. Bretty good games.
>>719684429I have two. First is Lost Odyssey. I emulated it on xenia recently, which I don't think would have worked til maybe a year or two ago anyway, but it was fuckin great. Totally ahead of its time in the writing department. I can see why it flopped because it has kinda hard bosses for a JRPG and it's got more serious adult emotional stuff (not in edgy or sexual way) rather than the usual melodrama.Second is Helldivers. I got it on PC a couple weeks ago after seeing some hype for the xbox launch. I'm not a fan of "live service" games, so I wrote it off forever ago, but after playing it on a whim, I love it. I like the fake/rigged story bullshit a little, but I'm really just liking killing aliens and robots. I haven't had a shooter I got into this much since Halo Reach.
>>719684429Basically all of the fifth generation. I missed out on it because mom put it in her head that my older consoles were supposed to last me forever.
I didn't play SH2 until last year. I thought knowing the story twists would have ruined it for me. Nah, that game is still amazing.
>>719684684>>719684765>Implying 4 won't be an absolute travesty and insult to the first three
>>7196847653 is my least favorite, but I still liked it. The novelty of the aiming was cool when it came out for Wii back in the day too. The corruption beam mechanic was fun to me.
>>719687924I did, but never really got into it. It always felt like it was trying hard to get me to drop real money on it, but didn't feel polished enough to warrant the invesment on my part.
>>719684429Skies of Arcadia. It's so energetic and full of wonder. Vyse is a great role model for a kid. It would have become one of my favorite games. Playing it for the first time as a jaded, depressive adult just made me wish hope and excitement weren't foreign concepts to me now.Excellent game though.
Space Marine 2
>>719688454You just need to get into the flow. Maybe the best scoreattack game of all time
>>719684429Battlefield/COD unironically
>>719688650Perhaps but I'm just playing not the one greenlighting it
I recently dove into the Atelier series. The desire to craft the best equipment really hooked me. The cute girls and their goofy interactions with the characters are also really refreshing.
>>719686610Literally me. Ys Origin and Felghana especially.
>>719684429Viva Piñata, the game and the show.
>>719689887Bro
>>719684429For me it's slightly complicated but it's Genshin Impact. I started playing it on release but anyone else who did will remember it was pretty barren and I got bored super quick, and with not having any characters I really enjoyed playing I ended up dropping it within 3 days. I love BotW's gameplay loop of mindlessly meandering about doing shitty puzzles for small bobbles, but with all of the good exploration utilities locked behind gacha I really didn't enjoy it.Then in 2023 a friend who had a bunch of re-roll accounts gave me one with Ganyu and Mona and I tried it again, got a bit deeper, had a good time, but still didn't enjoy it. Picked up 2 more 5* characters (Childe, Nahida) but that early in the game they weren't needle movers for my still quite barren teams.It wasn't until I tried it again last summer when Navia was on banner, and rolled her, and instantly fell in love with playing as her that the game finally hooked me and I started sinking dozens then hundreds of hours into it.So I regret not sticking with it for all that I missed out on all the daily shit and now feeling rushed in a game with a fomo model, but I also regret coming back to it because now I've sunk more than a few hundred dollars into the game and am on the fucking hamster wheel.
>>719691720So I've always been more of a TF2babby for my boom boom explody FPS and the military shooters I did play was RO/RS which is wayy smaller in fanbase. I picked up Battlefield last sale and had a blast with it, so now I wish I had played it for longer
>>719684429tf2
>>719686610I've tried at least three times, just couldn't get into it. I should just accept that Japanese RPGs are not for me. Ys, FF, DQ, KH, Skies of Arcadia, Dark Cloud, Breath of Fire, Secret of Mana, Chrono Trigger, bunch more that I can't remember off the top of my head -- nothing grabbed me. Fell asleep while watching the intro to the Kingdom Hearts. Birth by Sleep, ironically enough.
>>719688014I played Fortnite (the BR one) exactly the hour it was released. Got 2nd place in a couple of games (accidentally switched off the shotgun in a fight for the victory), closed the game and for some reason never came back to it.
>>719687916Stop while you still can, Anon. The BR compression at higher ranks is really shit
>>719684429Garry's Mod
>>719684429none expect for ratchet & clank
>>719688592At least emulation is pretty good for that gen now
>>719695000Which one is your favorite? I'm still replaying Up Your Arsenal at least once a year.
team fortress 2 on PC. loved playing it on ps3 and didnt have a good PC, so i stuck with it on ps3 for years. only after all the good shit died did i realize what i missed...
>>719684798I wish I could wrap my head around what people find so enrapturing about Diablo 2.I even played it as a child too, and it was alright. Replayed it nowadays and I still can't understand what made people go crazy about it.I can understand the logic of brrrrr numbers go up, but not what specifically makes D2 any better at it than any other brrrr numbers go up simulator.
Starsector. I have blown thousands of hours on it since playing it for the first time in 2020. I know it would have been thousands more if I knew about it back in 2011.
>>719684429Minecraft
I'm so glad I got into Payday 2 day one. Not even day one, I participated in the beta. Some games are worth it to be there from the start. All the drama, all the updates, all the shitshow. Good times.
>>719684429All the multiplayer ones that were once good
