My girlfriend and I play (mostly local) co-op sometimes. Some games that we enjoyed so far were (local unless otherwise indicated):
I recently replayed FFX and couldn’t agree more. Loved every second of it, and it’s still my favorite FF of all time.
Don’t forget Ennio Morricone’s musical genius. Many of the most iconic scores in Western films are his compositions.
Damn, I remember asking you whether you’d play it like 2-3 weeks ago, and here you go. I look forward to your updates as you go through this game!

So safe to ignore, got it.
Lemmy already superseded my expectations with how active it is. That being said, I would love the following to see more action (although I’m mostly lurking there myself):
!nba@lemmy.world - Loved the discussions on Reddit. As a European, it’s not easy to follow the games, so that was a great way to stay up to date.
!criticalrole@lemmy.world - Mostly carried by /u/Ultragramps@lemmy.blahaj.zone, whose updates are *chef’s kiss*
!quackers@lemmy.world - No explanation needed.
What are you talking about? There’s a new remake or remaster every other day!
I have not played 2 yet but plan to when I can catch a decent sale. From what I read, the writing is better and there also seem to be some QoL features might help with the pacing of the dialogue and cutscenes.
No, I feel you. I did finish the game and enjoyed it overall, but the dialogue and writing was jarring. I’m not sure what exactly it was, but I was particularly annoyed by the characters being such clichés and the dialogue in the cutscenes being soooo slow (overused animations, dramatic pauses in every sentence, …).
Jawoll!
Yeah, the vibe is different, but both are excellent in their own way. Part 2 is a more complex piece of story telling. It does some things that I had not expected from a game and that make it more (emotionally) challenging but also unique in terms of the experience. I personally found it really impressive.
Reading through this thread gives me serious nostalgia. My first smartphone was a Motorola Droid, which really had it all: physical slide-open keyboard, headphone jack, removable battery, configurable notification LEDs, shake guesture for the flashlight. Good times. Kept on running with CyanogenMod well beyond the official support.
Your journey through Part 1 was really fun to read along. Do you plan on playing Part 2?
so you can keep Windows for work but use Linux for everything else
LOL
Gotta wonder what part of “thou shalt not kill” is so difficult to understand for these people.
Those are better specs than what I used throughout college (an Asus Eee PC running Debian with Xfce and Openbox). Not a powerful machine, but I absolutely loved that thing.
Don’t worry. They will conduct an internal review, which will identify the officer at fault and punish him by having him go on paid vacation.
God of War has two big strengths that make it a great game in my opinion. The first is the story with its great characters, presentation, and voice acting. The second is the overall “feel” of the game, which can be a bit “game-y” at times but is really tight overall with only a handful of core mechanics that are exceptionally well implemented.
Assuming that “masterpiece” refers to the quality and impact the games had in their time (not how well they aged) some of my picks would be:
I don’t know how objective this list is. Some picks are definitely subjective and fit more in a “flawed masterpiece” category of games that had a large impact on how I perceived games but that may not be so widely acclaimed as some others on this list.
Like a dead coral reef.
