Video Game Thread 8.0

Lounge

Hello everyone! This is a thread for everything relating to video games. PC games, console games, even mobile games… you can discuss them here. I am continuing the thread since 7.0 got locked due to length after several months!

I’ve been playing my SNES mini Classic lately. I’m three hours into SNES Zelda and like 6 hours into Earthbound. The system offers state saves which is super helpful for difficult sections. It’s a great little system for emulation. Believe it or not I bought it with the cash I got from selling my Earthbound cartridge and guide on Ebay, with extra left over.

Gonna grab Sonic Frontiers on Series X and possibly God of War Ragnarok for PS5 next month. Still haven’t gotten into PC gaming much except for Rust which is a hilarious game but brutal as well.

There’s a channel on YouTube called “Let’s Game it Out” where a guy plays simulation games and tries to break them by behaving in crazy ways the game doesn’t expect. Some episodes are really funny and I’ve actually bought a few games due to seeing them on the channel, like Cooking Simulator.

I bought Elden Ring and it wasn’t my jam. I’m not a fan of Souls style RPG’s. I’m a bit of a baby gamer and much prefer turn based RPG’s. I’m returning it tonight to preorder Pokemon Scarlet.

Let’s get this thread active, gamers!

I also got Monster Hunter Stories 2 on the Switch, and have been playing Dragon Quest XI on my Series X. Like I said, turn based RPG’s are the best.

I’m really excited about a game I pre-ordered that comes out this month. It’s called evil west. It’s a wild west vampire slaying game. It should be a lot of fun.

I also have Hogwarts legacy preordered but that doesn’t come out on switch until March. Long way to go!

What was your complaint with Elden Ring? Too hard? Too Japanese? Just curious. I personally prefer Skyrim but like both.

Too Soul’s like. I’m not a fan of the roll and slash games. The game was absolutely beautiful, and I would have loved to play through it just for the story, scenery and atmosphere, but I only had a few days left to return it and wanted to put the money towards Pokemon Scarlet.

I can’t read worth crap the small text on the Switch. Luckily my exam to get new glasses is next Wednesday. I don’t think I am quite bifocals age but maybe a new prescription will help.

Anyways, two games are shelved for now.

When I finish Earthbound I’m going to play Earthbound Beginnings for the NES on my Switch online.

I configured my snes classic to dual boot, emulating the nes or snes depending on what I choose. Now I can play with a NES controller and still save state. Having fun with classic games

Yeah I know she isn’t. But I’m just honestly interested in how they make the world. If it’s too bad I’ll quit it and take it back though.

Rock on!

My new glasses solved that problem. Railway Empire on Switch is a blast.

Next up to try on the Switch: Snowrunner.

Yesterday I found a game I used to love as a kid on the Nintendo DS - Pop Cutie! Street Fashion Simulation. I’m totally sucked into it now. I love these kinds of micromanagement games and I love dress up games so it’s perfect for me
