I think that's Munich

For me it's about finding a situation that seems impossible at first, then eventually beating it by learning the enemy (both the actual enemies and the environment) and getting better myself.

That doesn't just include bosses, level design is a big part of it too, and it's what I enjoy (and sometimes detest) the most about souls games.

Edit: forgot the question I was answering, lol. Difficulty is an essential part of my experience, but more as a method and not the goal. It creates tension, keeps me focused, makes me notice things that I would have missed otherwise, and gives that great feeling of winning against the impossible.

So adorable!

The story combined so well with the gameplay, I love it. So I've stayed away from Hades 2's early access so that I get the full experience the first time I play it.

I got a switch as a birthday present a few years ago, so I've been waiting for the battery to go or for the steam deck oled to go on sale, whichever happens first. I spend an hour on the train every time I go to the lab, so it'll be well worth it.

I'm playing Hades right now, even though I was planning on finishing Mario+Rabbids after putting it on pause for years lol. Although for Hades my skill ceiling might be around heat 15. I still win some but half of the runs are a slog.

I keep thinking about replaying, but always end up distracted by something else. I have now two Playthroughs in sekiro, ds3 and bloodborne, and I doubt it'll change soon. Most of my game time these days are during commute anyway, hard to carry a full-sized PC or console around

It's been on my wishlist for some time. Every time I see it I wonder why I added such a visually unappealing game, then I'm reminded that the game screenshots are quite cute and pretty. Still, my backlog is so huge that I don't know if I'll ever get to trying it.

 

I learned about postmark games a couple years ago, found the print and play format quite interesting and wanted to try something. But it looks like all their games are competitive, which I often don't enjoy.

Mostly I really like talking about the game while playing, so I wouldn't mind a game that's mostly luck-based or where there's little player interaction.

Please recommend me some print-and-play games if possible! I'd love to know if any other publishers do this too

Could you tell me what's this about? I was on reddit for 4 years and now Lemmy for at least a year, but I am completely put of the loop on this one

I love those dinosaurs! Bought all the available ones last year for Christmas.

Been playing one of the Aeon's End Legacy games, at the final nemesis now. It's pretty great, although I feel that compared to the one Pandemic Legacy season we've played, it doesn't achieve the level of harmony between theme and mechanics. There's no explanation of why we get two tries at fights for example

I was trying for the second time to enjoy animal well. I kind of see how it's a great game, but playing it feels like torture to me. I'm constantly second-guessing myself whenever I'm stuck, I don't know if I haven't figured out the puzzle, suck at platforming, or missing a tool.

Thinking about playing Hades again next week.

 

So excited!

 

I really liked the Black Magician trilogy. I'd love to read more books that have 'evil' magic as a major component of the plot, preferably with some kind of trope subversion.
