Yesssss. I love this game. I think I need to get back to it some time.

I have windows and linux on different drives and windows killed my bootloader this week anyway lol

Thank you for keeping these up. I enjoy seeing these threads a lot.

As to stardew, I’ve only played a little bit, never past the first season pretty much. I’m not one to play it solo and group session always die very quickly. When most of my friends are unemployed or don’t work full 9-5, it’s hard to coordinate with them.

That all said, I love this game and it does so much right and Dev is awesome. This game feels to me like a lot of what game companies should strive to be.

Perhaps other people have said it but this is the quote I’m familiar with:
“The problem with defending the purity of the English language is that English is about as pure as a cribhouse removed. We don’t just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.”

This is an awesome post. Thank you for sharing it. I really appreciated reading your comments, and I hope you’re doing well

Nice touch adding people’s comments in the original post. Doing gods work here

The one game I will never stop gushing praise for is crosscode. Not a short game by any means but it’s taken my number 1 spot handedly.

As an aside, pseudoregalia is an excellent game and I’m glad it made it onto this list or yours.

It’s on my list but I was not in the right head space when I started it. Currently loving animal well but I think tunic will work perfectly after I’m done with animal well!

Just started animal well myself. Seems extremely solid so far. Excited to see what else the game has in store. Also has me excited to see what else big mode releases in the future if this is the bar of what they’ll publish.

Thanks for elaborating. I essentially don’t use amazon so I’m not familiar with their newest shitty practices. This is obviously very anti consumer, I just failed to see it as explained in the article

I don’t mean to support amazon in this, but the article outlines them promoting their own products over others? Unless the buy box implies something other than “we would like you to buy this”, I dont really understand the issue with that particular point

I played hl2 a long time ago (at least 10 years). It was a really good game when I played it and I suspect it will stand the test of time for a long while still.
That said, its not Something I’m especially interested in revisiting personally

I find that while the difficulty is there, its extremely forgiving in that you can create save points effectively at will so it doesn’t feel like too much of a chore most of the time

I loved Ori 1 and 2. I hope you enjoy as much as I did :)

This game is my favourite of all time. The characters in this game are incredible, along with each of the gameplay components. Cannot recommend checking the game out more.

One of the main issues blocking me from going to Wayland is an app (cursr) that lets me move my cursor between different resolution displays only runs in X. Is there a solution in Wayland for this? I can post elsewhere but thought this seemed like a decent first step

This series is really good. The second game is the only one I’ve ever preordered. I also bought and played through the enhanced edition right before it came out.

Like a handful of other people in this thread, I found the shift in combat to be a bit jarring, making the game focus a bit more on combat in general. That said, the original combat which was certinaly required was very uninteresting – mashing 1 button until their HP hit 0 – so the shift to the newer system wasn’t completely unwelcome.

The music and visuals of this game are incredible as well. Both probably in the top 5 of games for me.

I think I have the 5th on steam that I plan on checking out… Some time

I have never player any of these games but they seem really fun and I think a bit goofy at times too?

As a recommendation for another discussion topic: ori series?

Thank you for making these posts. I think it was a really good idea and creates some fun discourse :)

As someone also starting to get into Linux I appreciate these posts
