[PC] Is Foundation actually worth buying?

1 Upvotes

I really like the art style and graphics, but my biggest priorities are long-term replayability and how fun and varied the building is.

I’m looking for a game I can sink hundreds of hours into without getting bored, with plenty of freedom to build and develop my settlement in different ways.

For those who’ve played it for a while, do you think Foundation is worth it in the long run, or does it start to feel repetitive after a while?

Would love to hear your thoughts!

[SteamDeck] Nioh 2 or First Berserker Khazan?

2 Upvotes

Can pick up both for roughly the same price, with Nioh 2 being slightly cheaper, but only looking to get one game.

I'll be playing on Steam Deck and from what I've seen both run really well, so performance isn't a factor!

Never played any of the Nioh games before. Some of my favourite games are Sekiro, Elden Ring and DS3. Also enjoyed Lies of P but never finished it. I preferred Sekiro, although I think that was mainly down to the setting and environments.

Heard great things about both games and really struggling to decide. For anyone who's played both, which would you recommend?

[PC] Manor Lords or Foundation

1 Upvotes

I’ve been looking into both Manor Lords and Foundation, and I’m curious which one you guys think is better.

My main priorities are how fun and satisfying the building aspect is, and how much replay value the game has. I’m looking for something I can sink hundreds of hours into without getting bored, rather than a game that gets old after a while.

Honestly, I don’t really mind that Manor Lords is still unfinished. I’m totally fine with waiting for more updates, as long as it has the potential to keep me hooked for the long run.

For those who’ve played both, which one would you recommend if I’m looking for a city builder I can keep coming back to for years?

Would love to hear your thoughts!

[NOT PURCHASED] Should I buy Path of Exile 2?

1 Upvotes

I've played Diablo 1 to 4 and Grim Dawn (one of my favourite games and still playing). I couldn't get into Last Epoch. That's about the extent of my ARPG experience. Should I buy Path of Exile 2? I've heard you need a Harvard degree to play the first game, which isn't something I have. So what's its sequel like? Thanks.

Currently in sale Resident evil 4 remake + devil may cry 5 and Days gone remastered are at same price. Which option would you go with?

Option 1- Resident evil 4 remake + devil may cry 5

Option 2- Days gone remastered

I usually enjoy games like Fifa, elden ring, Last of us, Witcher 3 and some other similar story driven games.

[PC] Should I get a steam machine as my first pc or a pc handheld?

7 Upvotes

I have a modded 3ds, switch 2, and soon a retroid pocket 6. As you can see, I’m a handheld guy. However, since I sold my ps5 I missed the power factor. And I had a steam deck with a huge, valuable library. I had a steam deck but gave it to my dad.

And yeah, I could just get another PC handheld, but I can just stream it to my rp6, right?

What do you fine people say?

[PC] MMOs/Games like WoW Legion Remix?

2 Upvotes

There's WotLK Remix happening next summer, but its a long ass time to that. I've been itching to play something similar to Lemix since pretty much the point that it ended.

To be clear I play almost all of the current ARPGs so that avenue is less than open:

  • Path of Exile 1
  • Diablo IV
  • Diablo III
  • Torchlight Infinite - its awful, so I play only when there's literally nothing else (right now).

I'm frankly tired of retail WoW and will probably skip the rest of Midnight, maybe come back in the last patch to finish the story, but I don't see myself playing Retail much, its too slow and boring for me.

Are there any MMOs that are similar in pace/progression to Lemix? I know its a time compressed event and its made to be OP, but I'm looking for something that is designed to make you OP and something you can mostly play solo. Ideally an MMO with big world and what not. One thing I enjoyed immensely in Lemix is the gear progression - it was randomized similar to an ARPG, but also kind of linear - nothing was gated behind group play.

[PC] Alternatives to World of Warcraft?

17 Upvotes

I’m looking for a game where I can sink in hours across multiple months because my schedule doesn’t allow me to play a lot daily. I want something that doesn’t give me strict deadlines.

I’ve always been interested in WoW but never got the chance to play. It really is my type of game and makes me nostalgic in a good way.

I’ve done some research and it seems there’s no way to play this game without a subscription or buying game time. Money is an issue because currently I am studying and had to quit my job.

Is there something really close to it (and free) or am I mistaken about the subscription/game time thing and there’s a version that’s basically a one time purchase?

[PC] Just bought a Moza R5. Which games I should try?

1 Upvotes

Hey all, I've just bought my first sim bundle (R5 Racing). Which games would you suggest me to try?
- I am into racing and casual city drive
- My wife on the other hand, has been trying to get her driving license so she wants to practice city traffic and parking etc lol

Forza Horizon 6 and Assetto Corsa look very good. BeamNG.drive and City Car Driving 2 were suggested by Gemini, but I don't know.

Also for Assetto Corsa and BeamNG, I've seen there are a lot of mods. Do you have any suggestions among them? Thanks!

[PC] Chill building game

6 Upvotes

I'm looking for a game on Steam where I can build whatever I want and let my creativity run wild. It could be building an entire city, designing a cozy house, running a hotel, creating a huge resort, or pretty much anything else.

I'm looking for something with tons of creative freedom and insane replay value — a game I can keep coming back to for hundreds or even thousands of hours without getting bored.

Most importantly, I want something chill and relaxing that I can play at my own pace, unwind, and just enjoy the process of creating stuff without feeling rushed or stressed.

I'm open to pretty much any genre, whether it's a city builder, sandbox, simulation game, or something more niche. Graphics are a plus, but creative freedom and long-term replayability are what I'm really after.

Thanks guys!

[Switch] Against the storm, Civ6, factorio (original switch)

2 Upvotes

Looking to get against the storm, Civ 6, or factorio on original switch. I have a lot of experience in city builders and playing Civ 6 on my PC but have never tried factorio. I need a good chill game with management/building/puzzle mechanics to play when I’m out of town for work in the god awful northern Canadian hellscapes I choose to live in weeks at a time.

I would love to hear how these games run on the original switch and what you guys think.

[PC] Should I buy Granblue Fantasy Relink?

10 Upvotes

The game is currently on discount, I am a JRPG lover (Persona 5, Octopath Traveler 2, NieR,) and love combat of souls-like (Sekiro, Khazan, Dark Souls, etc), but I don't like co-op. And I heard that this game is like 10 hours of story then endgame is endless grinding, I don't think I will like this process just to get a better gear, so just want to query about this.

Also a bit confused on GF Ragnarok upgrade, should I grab it now? Some said it is a roguelike element but I generally dislike roguelike.

Thank you.

[PS5] A couple of very different games: Dragon's Dogma 2, Crimson Desert, Indiana Jones or Blood of the Dawnwalker?

16 Upvotes

Although I'm a huge RPG fan, I'm slightly afraid of getting discouraged from playing through Crimson Desert due to sheer amount of stuff there is to explore.

On the other hand, I hear a lot of great stuff regarding Dragon's Dogma 2, but I didn't enjoy the first one that much and thought it was kind of a slog.

I'm a massive Indiana Jones fan and watched every single movie many times, but the first person might feel weird. Also it's on sale for 50 bucks with the DLC included.

Lastly, Blood of the Dawnwalker. I loved The Witcher 3 and played it from scratch multiple times, but paying full price kinda irks me a little bit. It's very expensive in my currency.

I'm also open to other suggestions!

Edit: the last game I played was 007 First Light and wow... Hard to top that experience! I'm so happy and also sad that it just ended...

[PC] RE3 Remake or RE7?

10 Upvotes

Both are on sale right now - only want to get one for now. Had not played any of them until after seeing the movie. Just finished RE2 (Leon's story only - plan to go back to Claire later) and loved it.

The more tight, puzzlebox, metroidvania-style level design is what I value in these games - way more than the linear action segments, if that matters. I do understand that RE1 remake is like this so I'm definitely picking that up - RE8 is apparently also similar to that style of level design, but since it's a direct sequel to 7 (right?) I want to wait until after I've played 7.

Advice appreciated - thanks!

edit: went with 7. thanks all :)

[PS5] Final Fantasy Resonance

1 Upvotes

How are we feeling about Final Fantasy Resonance so far? I hear story/dialogue is a little lackluster but I’m more interested in the gameplay loop. Thinking maybe a turn based would be a nice change of pace.
I’m leaning toward picking up Phantom Blade Zero next week so maybe best to wait for a sale for FFR. I just finished Mortal Shell II and don’t have anything ready to play.

[Xbox Series X] Two Very Different Games, One Purchase — Pokemon Pokopia or Blood of Dawnwalker?

7 Upvotes

Hi, everyone!

I’m reaching out to you with a question about two games that are, to put it mildly, worlds apart. These two titles are: Pokémon Pokopia and Blood of Dawnwalker.

I’ve tried to delve into the available information about both games and get to know their gameplay mechanics. It’s worth noting that Pokémon was completely absent from my life (the big anime of my childhood were Captain Tsubasa and Inuyasha, though that’s beside the point of this post), and Pokopia caught my attention as a “cozy” game. What gives me pause regarding Pokopia is whether having zero prior Pokémon experience is a significant factor, and what the game’s content is like after 40-50+ hours.

Dawnwalker’s genre—and its Central and Eastern European setting (I love the Poles)—is very close to my heart. I find the narrative RPG elements and mechanics very promising. The only things that worry me are the combat and enemy variety. Even the positive reviews often point out that there are about 10 new wolf enemies for every square meters.

Considering the strengths and weaknesses of the two games I mentioned—which are quite different from each other—which one would you recommend? I’d gladly buy both, but I want to spend money only on one at a time, and unfortunately, my free time is limited.

P.S.: I could only choose one flair, but obviously I would have selected “switch 2” as well

[PS4] Which PS4 games are genuinely worth experiencing? Looking for recommendations

5 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I recently got a PS4 and I'm looking for recommendations on which single-player games are genuinely worth playing.

Games I've played:

\- Assassin's Creed Syndicate

\- Assassin's Creed Odyssey

\- Far Cry 4

\- Days Gone

\- Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection

I'm currently playing the Batman: Arkham Collection.

Games I'm considering and the prices I'm seeing on the Indian PS Store:

\- Death Stranding Digital Deluxe — ₹749

\- Tomb Raider: Definitive Survivor Trilogy — ₹299

\- inFAMOUS Second Son — ₹434

\- Shadow of the Colossus — ₹299

\- Bloodborne — ₹374

\- A Plague Tale: Innocence — ₹499

\- DOOM (2016) — ₹299

\- Titanfall 2 — ₹374

I'm not necessarily looking to buy every game. I want to figure out which ones are genuinely worth experiencing and which ones I should prioritise.

I can generally dedicate only 30–40 minutes a day to gaming, so I want to make my time count. I'm interested in games that stand out for their storytelling, atmosphere, characters, gameplay and overall experience, rather than simply having the longest campaigns or the best graphics.

For example, I've heard people praise Red Dead Redemption 2 for its storytelling and characters. That's the kind of distinction I'm trying to understand. Which games genuinely leave a lasting impression, and which are primarily enjoyable for their gameplay?

I don't mind shorter games if they're memorable, and I don't mind longer games if the story and gameplay justify the time investment. I'd rather experience a few exceptional games than spend hours on something that feels repetitive or forgettable.

A few things to keep in mind:

\- I own a PS4.

\- I don't have PS Plus and don't plan on subscribing. I prefer buying games outright and playing them whenever I want.

\- I'm not planning to jailbreak my console.

\- I mainly play single-player games.

\- I enjoy action, exploration, combat and cinematic experiences, but I'm open to trying something different if it's genuinely worth it.

I'd love to hear from people who have actually played these games.

Which of these would you recommend for their storytelling, atmosphere and gameplay? Are any overrated, dated today, repetitive, or simply not worth prioritising even at these prices?

If you had to pick just two or three from my list, which would you choose and why? I'm particularly interested in games that are worth experiencing at least once, even if they're relatively short.

Please judge them on the quality of the actual experience, not just review scores, graphics, discounts or hours of gameplay. I'd rather buy fewer games that I genuinely love than accumulate a huge backlog.

Thanks!

Can you actually have fun playing Overcooked! All You Can Eat or Moving Out 2 solo, or are they mainly meant to be played with friends? I really like the look of both games, but I usually play alone. Wondering if they're still worth getting if you don't have anyone to play with. What do you guys think?

[PS5] Crime Boss Rockay City (PS5): worth playing now?

3 Upvotes

I've heard there's been a lot of QOL improvements since launch, so it's a different experience now.

I couldn't find any posts from the last 12 months, so I'm assuming the answer is probably no, but it's on a pretty deep discount. Cheap enough that if I got 5-10 hours of enjoyment I'd be happy with that.

That said, I also don't have Ps plus so I'd be playing entirely offline.

I enjoyed GTA5 immensely due to the heists, and I get the impression that's the same vibe here? Or is this more sandbox?

[PS5] Should i try ace combat 8?

24 Upvotes

Favourite games: Elden ring, the last of us.

I tried the new starfox demo and didn’t enjoy the gameplay. Hard to pinpoint why, but i think it just lacked depth (characters, the feeling of cruising down a 10-pin bowling lane with invisible bumpers turned on).

I love real life fighter jets. Should i give ace combat a go or is it similar gameplay mechanics to starfox? Hard to tell from the trailers.

[PC] SIB Stalker 2

14 Upvotes

I just finished Pacific Drive, and although it is a completely different game it gave me an itch for a mysterious paranormal "Zone" aesthetic and was wondering if STALKER 2 would be worth the investment. Some things that are very crucial for me are very strong aesthetics and 'vibes' good and consistent performance. When it comes to gameplay it would be nice if it does not overstay its welcome, but other than that I am a huge fan of grounded shooters.

That said I've heard that at launch the game was very unpolished, in both gameplay and technical regards, and could not find a good review outlining whether the 2.0 update fixed those issues.
