EntãoSo it's kind of like Romeo and Juliet's family.

I really like the franchise, but there are some aspects of the newer games that just seem...pushed or pulled from the main thing that made the franchise stand out. Mirage, for example, was good, but the combat, crafting, story (except maybe the assassination parts and the ending I guess) weren't as good as shown, I knew from the beginning that the game will not be like the older ones. However, the stealth was quite good.

Eu gosto muito da franquia, mas alguns aspectos dos jogos mais recentes parecem... forçados ou afastados da essência que a tornou tão especial. Mirage, por exemplo, foi bom, mas o combate, o sistema de criação e a história (com exceção talvez das partes de assassinato e do final) não foram tão bons quanto eu esperava. Eu já sabia desde o início que o jogo não seria como os antigos. No entanto, a mecânica de furtividade era muito boa.

EIt's like me and Pokémon; I don't like the new games because I'm not drawn to them, even though I didn't live through the Pokémon Red era. I just don't see the appeal of the same Pokémon every day.

I played Pikmin 3 and Breath of the Wild.

I played Pikmin 3 and Breath of the Wild.

I've been getting back into Breath of the Wild again lately, there are aspects about the game I like more than Totk, but I've gotten so used to Totk's convenient menu UI and being able to use materials and fusion, so it's somewhat hard to go back.

Ultimamente tenho jogado Breath of the Wild novamente. Há aspectos do jogo que eu gosto mais do que em TotK, mas me acostumei tanto com a interface de menus prática de TotK e com a possibilidade de usar materiais e fusão, que é um pouco difícil voltar atrás.

Será possível?Am I the only human being on Earth who has never judged the two Zelda games for Nintendo Switch? I don't own a video game console, and I don't even have the money, considering the game costs 300 to 400 in my country.

I'm still on that Ninja Gaiden 4 grind for now, though I've been playing some classic Doom here and there too. I've been catching up on some of the DBP Doom WADs I've missed.

Silly
Ninja Gaiden only goes up to 3

- My wife and I have beaten PowerWash Simulator 2 in coop splitscreen
- And I played some Link: The Faces of Evil for the first time in a long time

Was checking out some NES/Famicom games today and I tried Solar Jetman and Daiva for the first time. I enjoyed what little I played of Solar Jetman, one of those games I might come back around to one day, and Daiva was a whole lot of fun in multiple genres. Definitely worth a play even though mechs aren't really my thing.

 

[Lod 10]

Estava dando uma olhada em alguns jogos de NES/Famicom hoje e experimentei Solar Jetman e Daiva pela primeira vez. Gostei do pouco que joguei de Solar Jetman, é um daqueles jogos que talvez eu volte a jogar algum dia, e Daiva foi muito divertido em vários gêneros. Definitivamente vale a pena jogar, mesmo que mechas não sejam muito a minha praia.

OláHey my friend, how are you? As I was saying, I was playing Animal Crossing DS and I paid off my mortgage.

However point of this thread is "reporting" what game you discovered among not worldwide popular ones and what you think about it which has way more point for me TBH.

Fair enough I suppose
Could probably be a good idea to rename the thread to avoid confusion

I played the ”Freemastered” hack of Mario Kart Super Circuit today. Such an underrated Mario Kart game imo, excellent gamefeel for what is essentially just souped up Super Mario Kart, and that collection of patches makes it ever so slightly better which is just grand.

I'll do no such thing.
I wanted a thread specifically for the purpose of what games community members have recently discovered for themselves, be they new or old games, what the individuals have currently been getting into.

However anyone determines the intent or purpose of the thread beyond that is their own matter and concern, not mine.

There's already a stickied one with the very same subject here

What did you play today?

What did you play today? What video games did you play today? Did you have a good/bad time? Beat any tough bosses or discovered any new secrets? Did you start a whole new save in an exciting new game, or maybe you finished a game for the first/twentieth time? Share your latest trials and...

(Please don't take this as me wanting to rain on your parade because I created the original thread or something like that, I just happened to see this one in the Latest Thread and got surprised/deja vu)

This should have come up when I searched for this type of thread specifically.
Why does our search bar suck so much

Why does our search bar suck so much

Yeah it’s legit atrocious.

 

[csanjuro]

played a bit of Forgive me Father and Super robot wars 30

 

[deceptionfalls]

trying to get through Sonic the Hedgehog on the original Sega Genesis, i love it for what it is but geez that game is miserably difficult, although its not too hard to the point i get hard stuck on a stage, but you still have to go through a lot of trial and error.

other stuff im playing include:
- Odin Sphere (PS2): big review coming soon
- Midnight Club: Los Angeles (Xbox 360): loving it so far but also very tough in difficulty

I started the first 45 minutes of DemiKids on the GBA. Basically SMT-lite. Not sure if I'll get far in it but its supposed to be under 20 hours so why not

 

[Bakuma1997]

Final Fantasy IV (SNES version)
Yesterday i collected all but all of the extra weapons in the Lunar Subterrane, as soon as i beat Ogopogo i will dash to knock Zeromus down

 

[RETRO-VETRO RETRO-VETRO]

I've beaten Sonic 3D Blast recently!

 

[ScriptorFaust]

I really don't know why but I finished Modern Warfare 1, 2 and 3 on RPCS3. I remembered liking the MWs quite a bit back then and they really do hold up, without all the MX-crap and season pass awfulness. I then moved over to Black Ops 1 and 2 (Fitgirl Repacks) but I can already see it going downhill from there. Still.. it feels like watching a series you basically don't like but care about the ending.

Also progressed in Trails in the Sky SC, played some Dredge via Heroic Launcher on my Steam Deck and sprinkled a bit of Drakengard into the mix.

 

[shadowcat]

Found this at a thrift shop near me and have been loving it. I had played Growlanser Generations, but this is my first time playing Heritage of War, and I am loving it.

 

[stealthRUSH stealthRUSH]

Dekoboko Densetsu: Hashiru Wagamanma (1990)

 

[DanCalibur]

Hunting achievements in Forbidden Memories, dropped a Twin Headed Thunder Dragon

 

[Ephemera1_]

Today i played some Ridge Racer R4 and this interesting sonic fan game called "Super Duper Amy Freaking Rose".

Really interesting platformer with similar trick mechanics as a tony hawk fame, mixed with a time trial feel, its a really creative game that plays with the 2.5D perspective as well, you guys should check it out
