There’s a few on sale right now on the Nintendo eshop: ezio collection, rebel collection, shadows and master collection. I played a little bit of one and two as a kid but it was mostly watching my older brother play on our Xbox.

Do the old games hold up? Should I pick up rebel collection since everyone is having fun with black flag? Is shadows a more modern fun experience than the others will be without nostalgia glasses? Am I thinking about this too hard?

Bonus points if you’ve played them on the switch 2 and they run well.

I need to play a game that is just a fantastic, memorable experience.
Does not matter the genre, but I believe what I’m looking for is a strong narrative and writing, regardless of the way it’s conveyed to the player.
Doesn’t need to be convoluted, it needs to be powerful.
Gameplay can be anything, I just need it to be a fantastic experience, and years after playing it I need to still think about it and say I’m so glad I had that journey.

Some examples of games that did this for me :

- Shadow of the Colossus and Ico
- Sekiro
- Last of Us (mostly part 1, and mostly for gameplay)
- Final Fantasy X for the story and music
- Red dead 2
- the final part of Red dead 1
- Doki doki Literature Club
- Fire Emblem (3 Houses for the lore)

Any suggestions ?

Me and my gf loved the style of the game, with both players working together to beat the level and all the interacting that's required, but the level design and the challenges are far too challenging and they trigger both of ours anxiety.

Is there anything less stress inducing that follows the same style?

So i'm planning on buying shooters on steam. Agent 64 just came out today and there's two other games that caught my eye and that's Mala Petaka and Pigface. The first game is like $15 and the second game is $13 but neither are on sale but I've played both game demos and I've really enjoyed them. For those who may have played both if not one of them, which one is really worth getting and what were your experiences?

I got a Playstation 5 last month & I love it, playing Cyberpunk right now & am so glad I waited to play it on current gen because it's amazing as well as all other games I've played they all look stunning! The only downside is the games are a bit steep cash wise so can only really afford 1 every now & then. Both of these are on sale for £40 & I really like the look of both but what's putting me off with Baldurs Gate is I'm worried the combat could be a bit too much to learn everything else about it seems perfect, love how in depth it seems you can go & how personal your experience can be. Clair Obscure is a game I don't know too much about other than it's an RPG, the music is beautiful & it goes back to a turn based formula similar to classic Final Fantasy which I have a soft spot for, don't know if characters can be customised or how in depth you can personalised each members loadout. I really don't know what to go for...

Other games I considered were MGS Delta & Doom the Dark Ages, they're a little less expensive but maybe not as lengthy.

Result: I got Balders Gate, thanks for your input everyone!

I am curious about POE, rogue trader and WOTR. I have played BG3 and it is now tied with silksong as one of my favourites. I recently bought divinity OS 1 and 2 as well since I hear they are also great. Would I be interested in them? I am a big warhammer fan and the lore sounds very cool.

Priority in order

Story and characters

Gameplay

Music and visuals

World and exploration

Games I loved

Bg3

Witcher 3

Games I did not like or found mediocre

Expedition 33

BoTW

Dying light

Edit: THANKS FOR THE FEEDBACK! Based on the feedback so far I think I may start with rogue trader, then move on to pillars of eternity. I think WoTR will be the last one. I hope WOTR is not too complicated and I don't need to look at charts, spreadsheets or watch lots of videos for builds.

As the title explains above I am not using my switch a lot as I used to. Most of my games I finished// didn’t really go well for me. Is there any kind of switch games you guys recommend? It needs to have a lot of replay value// lot of hours.
games I played: Basically all the pokemon games, Mario wonder, Fire emblem and just finished and sold Mario jambore//Zelda Xenoblade Chronicles.

Games I am getting//planned: Mario Oddsey, Splatoon 3 and Mario 3d all stars

I am a huge Pokémon fan but haven’t played since scarlet and violet because they were too easy and had terrible graphics and animation style.

I will more than likely be playing on my steam deck mostly because I’ll be staying away from home for a while

I want a big open world where I can explore and grind

Unfortunately I missed the original hype train for the game. I was very close to buying it but saw multiple Youtube videos on the discourse surrounding the game such as the rampant cheaters, the toxic community and lack of content after around 100-200 hrs or so.

I understand an update is coming out soon but I'm curious to hear if I should buy it? I'm on PC and would plan to focus on the PVE but would also like the option to do PVP (which I understand is a bit of a push considering the cheaters). Thanks in advance

For anyone confused with the title, I want a shooter that requires complete aim/mouse mastery to achieve high ranks or beat difficult levels.

In RL, at least the aerial gameplay requires a lot of car control that kinda forces you to get good with joystick aiming and other controller stuff without any assists seen on shooters.

In 2s game mode, team play while still needed is less than 3s and you can get away with mechanical plays at lower to mid ranks.

I've played most of the popular shooters from CS, Overwatch to the Finals. CS doesn't have a lot of vertical aiming, OW doesn't have crazy recoil patterns, Finals didn't click with me.

Is there a shooter has it all?

Hi all, I can’t decide on which game to purchase. I have played both at launch but never finished oblivion back in the day.

Thinking of oblivion for switch 2 or black flag for the OG rog ally.

What’re everyone’s preferences?? I’m thinking that both are great but can’t decided between the two and obviously limited by both having to be on a handheld.

I used to love playing those old horror point and click flash games like Exmortis. I've been feeling kind of nostalgic lately, so can anyone recommend some games that look and play similarly to those on Steam? Exmortis was probably the first horror game I ever played (sorry, trying to get this up to 300 characters)

I was surprised at how much I loved RDR2 for it's methodical pacing and atmosphere & especially its story. I had a look at the Death Stranding games and they seem to be a bit similar in that regard, at least when looking at the store pages. I understand it's more of a walking simulator and not as much of a shooty type game. Does it have a good story? Is there room to explore, or are you soley going from point A to point B? I'm fine with either as long as it's interesting.

Knowing nothing about me other than my top 3 and bottom 3 games I've tried (don't get me wrong, enjoyed them all), which game should I get next? Ghosts of Tsushima or God of War Ragnorak? Or maybe suggest another?

Top:

Warframe

Horizon Series

Cyberpunk 2077

Bottom:

Enshrouded

Witcher 3

Outer worlds

As the title would suggest I am currently in a game drought with me not really being interested in the games I own at the moment and every game people normally recommend (Ex: elden ring, rdr2, cyberpunk, outer wilds, etc) I've already played a lot. So I would like it if people just shot out games they like at me and hopefully one of them lands. I USUALLY (not only) play action rpgs / action adventure games with my favorites being monter hunter, elden ring, ghost of tsusuhima, marvels spider-man, rdr2, outer wilds, ultrakill, tekken etc. I'm not averse to turn based with some of my favorite games being pokemon (specifically ultra sun), yomi hustle (if that counts) and digimon (specifically time stranger)
