How long have you waited to get it? Was it worth it?

A couple of games I've been looking at for a while like The End is Nigh and 20XX ended up being free on Epic, they were great games and definitely worth playing if you picked them up for free. Glad I didn't have to buy them.

Persona 5 on PC. Fuck Sony and their exclusive policy.

[-] MyOtherCarIsEpona@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Is there evidence to suggest that Sony was responsible for Persona 5 being exclusive for so long, and not Atlus's usual confusing nonsense? Honest question.

I know that when Xbox decided to consider PC as part of the "Xbox ecosystem" it lit the fire under Sony's butt to start porting some of their banger titles onto Steam, which is much appreciated. Days Gone, God of War, Uncharted 4, Spiderman, and Returnal were all fantastic on day one. Horizon needed some time to fix the issues but the PC version now does it justice way better than the original 30fps version.

My dad commented that One Man And His Droid was supposed to be good, when we were in a shop (Woolworths?) looking at games. Mid-late 1980s. I finally played it a couple of years ago.

I think it was, yes!

I only played the first Half-Life about 6 months ago despite having friends who grew up playing it. Well worth the wait, it was fantastic (I played Black Mesa to be fair, not the original Half-Life, but I’ve heard they’re near identical). That’s definitely my longest. The main other one is Dark Souls, I’ve been wanting to play it since it came out and only started it a month ago. I’ve played DS3, Elden Ring, and Sekiro, but this is my first time with DS1.

Skyrim, and yes it was. Got it on disconnected in a pack with Prey for €19, so that was excellent value for money.

Mound and Blade 2...and nope.

[-] DakkaDok@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I'm still waiting for Silk Song, if that counts.

Duke Nukem Forever. And no it wasn’t.

[-] Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Same. What a dumpster fire of a release.

Pretty sure it'll be the latest God of war when it finally releases for PC somewhere next year?

Mega drive version of Theme Park.

I saw it getting closer in the release section of gaming magazines, closer.. then delayed.. closer.. delayed.. then I finally got it and the cartridge casing was deformed and wouldn't fit in the console.

My mum had to brute force it because I was losing my shit.

As an oldschool GM for the Cyberpunk 2022 P&P Roleplaying game I was immediately hooked when CD Projekt Red announced the video game of Cyberpunk 2077. Despite the initial bugs, I enjoyed it. A lot. Probably the only game so far for which I got all achievements. Now patiently waiting for the Phantom Liberty DLC.

Hellooooo Night City!

I finally completed fallout 1/2/tactics at the end of last year.

I'm looking forward to playing baldurs gate, planetscape and arcanum soon.

[-] kirua@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Metroid prime 4.. it’s been far too long

[-] Flag@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago

For shit thats coming out:

  • Baldur's Gate 3. Waoweee 22 years

For shit that isnt out:

  • Star Citizen... one of these days man :| yes i have an unrelated copium subscription @_
  • Command & Conquer 4. C&C3 was/is great, so it makes sense to get C&C4 eventually.

A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.
