Title: What are you playing?
Post by: BlackCurtains on April 19, 2021, 08:17:10 AM
We had a thread like this before. I thought I'd make a new one :)

Right now I'm playing NieR Automata. I've never played it before but I know all about it so there aren't any surprises. I'm having fun with it though!

A friend introduced me to the online game Fer.al and I've been playing it a lot. You get to create a creature and run around collecting ingredients to craft clothing and furniture. You have your own little house to decorate. There are also hidden objects to find, quests to do and a daily activities. It's simple, colorful and fun!

I'm playing a lot of Gunfire Reborn! It's a rougelike FPS with cute anthro animals as the heros. Definitely not normally my type of game but I really enjoy it! My boyfriend got me into it.

I didn't know anything about rougelikes until I got Hades, turns out they're fun!

I've been playing Dragalia Lost for mobile for a couple of years now and I'm still pretty hooked! It's a really good action RPG with a huge cast of characters and lore that goes really deep which I think is super impressive for a mobile game. It does have the disadvantage of coming with the microtransactions we've grown to expect from mobile games, but the game is generous enough that you don't necessarily have to pay to advance.

I really like the creature designs as well. This is "Unicorn"  :silly:

Hannah got me the dlc for Animal Crossing so I'll probably try getting back into it. And I have Pokemon Diamond on preorder and I know nostalgia alone could pull me into that. I have a few games I've never even played waiting on me as well as old faves like stardew, story of seasons, and Myst all on my switch, plus the free original and Super nes library that I have access to on it. Seems for the past few years I've not "finished" any game I've played and after my health went downhill I've barely played anything other than Pokemon Cafe. For a while there l did better with things like touch screens instead of controllers and now that I'm doing better I'm not sure how to get back into gaming but I think Pokemon and Crossing will maybe help some.
Been trying to decide if the higher bracket of Switch Online would be worth the cost to me because I hate paying for something and not making use of it.
What do you all think?

I'm playing Pokemon Violet.  If any of you are playing, don't talk to the little girl with the Pelipper in the first "town", it will freeze your game.  Good thing I'd saved but I saw online that other people hadn't saved (and had turned off autosave) so they had to start all over.  I haven't played Scarlet yet, so I don't know if it's the same on that game or not.

Basically the user-made mods have tripled the size of the entire game. Then there's all the "quality of life" mods that kinda should have been in the base game, like the ability to save anywhere instead of just in bed every night. Or buying a tractor...because, yanno, you have a farm...

I've played it before a year or so ago when it was everywhere. You just go around trying not to die or killing everyone, depending on if you are an imposter or not. It's more fun with friends so you can chat and laugh and manipulate each other on the votes. I like watching YouTubers play it, but I only ever had my fiance and sister to play it with and we got tired of it after a few times. There's a bit of strategy to it, I guess. The crew are supposed to do tasks but I feel like the focus is always on to kill or be killed.

Tiny bump!

I've been in a gaming mood lately. I'm mainly playing Settlement Survival which is a Banished clone but so much better and much more fleshed out.

I've also gotten back into The Sims 4, though I'm not that interested in the new expansion pack. They've released some game, stuff, and kit packs since the last time I played that I'd like.

I'm also thinking of starting up RDR2 again. I never finished my last playthrough and I still haven't gotten all the trophies.

Lastly, I finally hooked my Super Nintendo back up and played some games on it :D Super Buster Brothers, Demon's Crest and The Lion King so far.

There's a horsey farming game coming out on Epic soon. It looks like so much fun. I'd love to pre-order it and the two bonuses but, ahh, no money! I'll look up the name in a second... It's called Horse Tales - Emerald Valley Ranch.
Title: Re: What are you playing?

Epic is having a huge sale and Horse Tales was only $14 including the DLCs :cheer: I'll post more about it after I play it for a while :)

eta: The controls are a little clunky. It wants you to use keyboard commands for everything but you can also use the mouse. It took me a while to get past the first real obstacle with the horse because I missed a pop-up during the tutorial. I had to go on the Steam forums for an answer. Turns out you have to hold shift to sprint, then jump.

Reading the forums, I guess there are a lot of bugs still in the game and the devs haven't updated since Dec last year. So far I haven't had any problems but I'm only like and hour in.

Castlevania-I'm having a hard time taking down Frankenstein. I almost killed him once, but that stupid flea man got me. Then I decided to kill the flea man first, but it respawned and Franky killed me. Real nice Konami. >:-\/

Back into Settlement Survival. I like starting over though. Once my town gets established enough (about 5 hours of play time) I like to start fresh. I'm not sure why? I think it's because I think I can make a better town, but then end up doing the same things as before.

Ponyfan

you can play them but it isn't 100% free. you have to buy a Nintendo Switch Online membership. it's a yearly fee and not super expensive i guess when compared to some streaming services. but i was still annoyed that it was listed as free on the games section of the website. then when i got my switch and went to download there were more fees. i already bought the switch. https://www.nintendo.com/switch/online/

i'm a little bored with Breath of the Wild so i've been playing some of the older games.

I also play that Sim City game of my tablet. i kind of hate it though because it's so different from the classic version. does anyone know if there is a version that's closer to the classic versions where you had to try to attract residents to your city?

Post by: Ponyfan on July 27, 2023, 05:46:34 AM
Thanks, Beth.  That's exactly the info I was looking for.  It's too bad it's only free if you pay for a subscription. :(   I feel the same way you do. Switches are already expensive enough without having to pay for extra things once you buy it.  I don't have that much extra money right now, so I'll have to wait and hope  Nintendo might release the games on a game card/cartridge for Switch.

I'm looking forward to Super Mario Worlds of Wonder.

Title: Re: What are you playing?
Post by: BlackCurtains on September 03, 2023, 12:45:33 PM
I had that same dilemma. I ended up going for the PS4 games. I made my decision based on that, while I appreciate incredible graphics, they don't make or break a game for me. Some of my all time fav games had horrible graphics lol. That and that I'd like to get a Switch before a PS5. A nice bonus is that sometimes you can find the PS4 games on sale or in a bundle, or even free with tech purchases.

Title: Re: What are you playing?
Post by: Beth3346 on September 04, 2023, 04:18:22 AM
yeah i think i'll probably stick with the PS4 and get more games. also, i can really expand my collection more if i don't spend $500 on a new system too. i'll hold off until there's a lot of games that are only on the PS5.

I’m terrible at wall jumping if I have to do it continuously or from wall to wall, but thankfully those harder levels seem optional (and my husb is good at it, so he goes back and plays them). The “special” world is like WHEW! :shocked: I normally play as Peach, but I’ll switch to Yoshi once in a while.

I can't afford any of the cool new games coming out. Really interested in Alan Wake II. It's been a long time since I played a good survival horror game. I don't care for the Outlast series and other big ones are all multiplayer or co-op. I still have to play Resident Evil Village.

I think I'm also changing my mind about getting a Switch. Think I might want a PS5 instead. GTA6 looks incredible. I know it will be a long time before it's out. And Rockstar confirmed RDR3, but it will come after GTA6 and probably won't even be on the current gen.

It's just so nice to ride around in all the pretty scenery's, solving missions or participate in contests to level up horses. :gallop:
Most horses in game are very lovely too and I love to tack them and my character up.
It's my go to relax game  :blush:

Lately I've been trying to play a bit of "Planet Zoo" too.
It's also a very nice game to play but I just can't get a hang of all the controls to build and decorate stuff!

Yes, you can go three ways. An old fashioned RF switch, composite cables or an HDMI converter. I've used all three and I like HDMI converter the best, it's also the simplest. Just look for an SNES HDMI converter. I got mine from Amazon and paid about $30 for it. I also got an HDMI extension hub because both my PlayStations occupy both slots on my TV.

So it's not playing games? Try cleaning the contact circuit with rubbing alcohol. You can use a cotton swab.

Try different games if you haven't already. Some might have dead batteries.

I know my SNES is very particular in how you put the carts in. You have to put the left side in before the right. So try different ways of inserting them.

I bought a few games during the winter sales on Steam and Epic. One I started is Anno 1800. I was afraid it wouldn't run well because my PC is getting old, but it plays on high graphics with 60FPS so it's fine. It's so detailed and beautiful... and complicated. I couldn't even figure out how to move the boat in the first quest, then I couldn't figure out how to pick up the fish. I didn't play for long because I didn't know it was going to so in depth and have this grand story with it. I need to have the right mindset to play again.

I've played a lot more of Anno 1800 and it's not as complicated as I thought. It's like any other city builder but there's some depth to the production chains. I really like it so far. I haven't gotten into other islands or dealing with pirates or anything, but I like the building aspect very much.

I'm  not sure if this belongs in Trivial Complaints or here, but I'll post it here for now.  About a month after I got my Switch I had to send it back to Nintendo because my left Joy Con wasn't working correctly. Nintendo sent me another Joy Con free because my Switch was under warranty.  I'd had little problems with the replacement until yesterday.  It kept disconnecting suddenly and at some point the Switch thought the L and R Joy Con were the same.  It would light up the Right on the screen if I pressed the Left.  Turning the Switch off and on would fix the problem for a few minutes, but as soon as I really got started on my game, it would happen again.  Today, I the same thing happened so I decided to open my extra Joy Cons ( I bought an extra set so that if I ever had another Joy Con fail, I wouldn't have to send my Switch in.)  After they charged the new Joy Cons worked perfectly. 

I'm wondering if Nintendo will replace any Joy Con for free?  I don't think the issue is Joycon Drift, since it seems to be a connecting issue.

Also, if Princess Peach Showtime is supposed to be so easy, why have I died a bunch of times?

Sorry about your Joycon, did you get it fixed?

I started playing Parkasaurus on Steam. It's so cute! The dinos are adorable and you can dress them up :lol:

I've also got the itch to play Sims 4 again.

ok did anyone else play the cluefinders computer games or freddi fish when they were reallly little? Freddi fish seems to be findable and playable but the clufinders not so much! Thats what Ive been trying to play lately. I remember about 10 years ago I think I played "The Longest Journey" and I've been thinking of trying to play that one again as well!
