Can anyone recommend some good entry points for the Atelier games that's available on Steam? (lemmy.world)

I saw a few of them are on sale, and I thought one might make for a nice light-hearted adventure as I recover from the emotional trauma of Clair Obscur. I've never played an Atelier game, but I do remember rather enjoying Mana Khemia back on PS2, which I think is a spinoff?

I understand the overarching series is composed of 6 or more sub-series that are only tangentially connected. And I think I saw Ryza, Sophie and Ayesha are all the first of their respective sub-series, and all have positive reviews. Any particular places you'd recommend jumping on?

A sketchy dispensary, maybe? I feel like that scene is usually more about getting the beer than the gasoline.

They are officially known as string trimmers. Where are you geographically and what do you call them? in c/[email protected]

Pineapple on pizza is always hotly debated, but do you think Pineapple belongs on a burger? in c/[email protected]

I was on board with pineapple in some scenarios. Carl's Jr does a teriyaki burger with pineapple that's alright.

But beets? Apparently even the food is trying to kill you down under.

Fuck yeah, the Amiga was an amazing gaming machine. We had cracked copies of damn near everything. Wings, Lemmings, Lost Vikings, Monkey Island, Leisure Suit Larry, Blood Money, Menace, The Killing Game Show, Woody's World, It Came From the Desert, Bubble Bobble, Elvira, Out of this World... hit after goddamn hit.

Shit, I might need to reinstall WinUAE if that's still a thing.

The union flag is the flag of a group of who declared war with the States and tried to secede, so yeah.

What the fuck are you talking about? The ones who tried to secede were famously the Confederacy, the South. Did this motherfucker just try to "no u" the civil war?

Ok, I can kind of see that. A giant screen is going to have a much different vibe than a closer fancy curved monitor.

Are they different in some way, so certain games look better or are easier to play on one of them? I think I could understand that more than the pure chaos of mixing it up on identical monitors.

I play strictly on my left screen, but I couldn't actually tell you why. The monitors are identical, and it's no more of a strain to look at one over the other for extended periods. Left just feels right to me.

Or I suppose you could be some kind of crazy person who switches it up per game.

I assume you three-monitor people use the middle one, but I'd be interested to hear if that's the case?

I'm just kind of sick of all the DC stuff about the big 3. Where's my Plastic Man movie? Or Resurrection Man show? A Blue Beetle/Booster Gold miniseries?

Well, at least Guy Gardner is supposed to be a major character in Lanterns.

I get the sentiment, I do. But can we please stop associating tacos with that blubbering sludgefuck? Tacos are a beautiful thing.

Would alcohol be as popular if it weren't a beverage? (lemmy.world)
 

Like I bet if alcohol was something you had to snort, or just like a pill you take, I think a lot of people might not dig it as much.

I did a little gambling on Fanatical while I was picking up Clair Obscura, and didn't end up with anything that wowed me from the mystery games. But maybe they're exactly your jam? Let my loss be your gain.

~~Rebel Galaxy Outlaw~~

Kingdom Wars 2: Definitive Edition

To enter, share me a channel that does good comedy skits on youtube. I like Viva la Dirt League and Chris & Jack. I will also accept mind-bending Black Mirror/Twilight Zone style short films.

Entry ends in 24 hours or so, if multiple people want something I'll roll for it.

EDIT: I just don't learn my lessons. At least this time I got Unloved, which looks vaguely interesting to me, as a procedurally generated doom clone.

Now also available:

~~Eternal Edge +~~

~~Stick It!~~

White Noise Online

~~Just Die Already~~

Edit 2: Congrats ddash and BrundleFly2077, enjoy Eternal Edge+ and Rebel Galaxy Outlaw respectively.

I'm just going to leave this up, if anyone sees this later and wants one of the other games, just ask.

Your mods, give them to me. (lemmy.world)

What are y'all running for mods these days?

I didn't know they didn't affect achievements, so I'm just getting into them now after my first ending (I restarted a lot).

So far I have:

  • some body mods
  • Lizzie's Braindances/Dark Future/Street Vendors to work together for immersion.
  • Also, Night City Alive for immersion, but it doesn't really interact with the ones above.
  • I forgot the name but it replaces River with Rhino, including a mostly-passable AI voice change.

Any other suggestions? I think I could use a combat mod, something that spices things up a bit and adds challenge. I might try Amateur Hackers and AI Netrunners Enhanced, so something that blends well with that would be preem.

What "same actor, different character" match-ups would you like to see? (lemmy.world)
 

Could be a fight, a contest of some sort, or a team-up.

If we are in a simulation, maybe yawning is an animation glitch. (lemmy.world)
 

As far as I know, the purpose of yawning isn't really understood, but it's present in nearly all land vertebrae. Maybe it's a universal bug in the breathing animation code.

I want to grapple, glide, wall run, etc around a big open world. What are some games you think are fun for that?

I picked up Sunset Overdrive on a sale, and the rail grinding is fine I guess, but it's just not clicking with me.

Just off the top of my head, there's Scarecrow, Ivy, Harley, Hugo Strange, Kirk Langstrom, and I think I read that Freeze had his revoked.
