I want to play some good pointy clickies, old or new doesn't matter but I AM curious to check out some relatively modern ones just to see what's good recently
With all the innovation in game making tech have there been any improvements to the genre? Have any games solved the "glass case" problem yet by permitting multiple solutions to the same problem?

Disco Elysium is a good one

Nice thread start. I'm gonna post a couple modern ones I can remember. Picrel, Endacopia, is absolutely amazing.

>>737376807
Eh, can you call it a point and click? Maybe technically speaking but it's not quite what I'm looking for, it's too RPG esque, maybe I'll play ti someday anyway but not right now in my search for a pointy clicky

Thanks anyway

>>737377012
I heard of this but wasn't gonna play it since I saw it's incomplete
Is it out now?
>>
>>737377060
>Is it out now?
no, the demo alone is just that good that it was the first thing i mentioned.
Some other games I am remembering are Primorida and the Four Last Things trilogy. Fuck I thought I would think of more. Whoops :D
and if puzzle game is ok The Case of the Golden Idol is REALLY good

is it really a point and click if you don't click anything in the picture? it's more of a text adventure game where the options are simply laid out before you

Unavowed is pretty good, if you want to try something relatively new. It's very cheap during sales. Right now it's on a sale on GOG. Unless you want to pirate, then it doesn't matter.

Lucas Arts games usually had the actions on the bottom, but you still click on the graphics to do stuff. Sierra games also had a bar for it with little pictures. Part of it is so that you could still play the game without a mouse even though it's not very convenient.

nta what's wrong with it
>>
>>737384330
It's just uninspired and boring. Everyone praising it acts like it was the true successor to the stuff Lucasarts and Sierra made, when it really was just THERE. The acting and writing are Rockstar-tier, and it just kind of plods along.
>>
>>737384330
also nta and i didn't play the game but every single time i see people talk about it, they do it with this smug attitude like it's the best game ever and they don't even have to tell you, and generally they give the impression like they don't play many adventure games.

sounds like your issue is less with the game and more with the perception of the game's fanbase and i don't tend to base my opinions of something on how the people who like it act so that's not saying much

Here's a niche one

>>737385507
The game's fanbase built it up as something it's not. What it is happens to be piss poor. The fan base is irrelevant in that case.

I watched the show, and never knew that existed. -_-

Old Skies came out last year if you want something new. Nothing revolutionary but I liked it.

why not?

why don't i base my opinions of something on the behavior and perceived character of others?
well mostly on account of not being a female under the age of 16

Inherit the Earth: Quest for the Orb is one of the best I've ever played, and no one talks about it.

is this some new e-kiddie meme or behavior i'm too adult to understand or something
>>
>>737386730
I've found that the worst the title of a point and click, the more likely it is to have a great story. This one definitely doesn't diaappoint.

Hey. Cry about it.

It's probably some repressed memory of his dad abusing him for asking questions being taken out on random internet strangers.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I'm the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You're fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You're fucking dead, kiddo.

i just think it follows the same naming convention logic as a lot of other media
like movies back in the day that would be named shit like
>joe and the great adventure to the bottom of the sea
>the mystery of the fantastic rock
>big dicks in my little brothers bum
it would sound a bit daft but it wasn't meant to be the focal point of the piece, just a way to distinguish the story itself which was the interesting part and it was great
whereas now a lot of modern movies are called some bland 'mysterious' short arbitrary sound and meaningless title like
>enchantment
>amazed
>incredible
>beauty
or something and they're boring as fuuuuuck
>>
>>737387252
Definitely agree there, which is sad because the majority of movies now are already really really dogshit remakes of classics, further diluting quality work with trash, be it AAA blockbuster or indie flick.
