Question of the week:
What game have you completed recently and what are your thoughts on it?
(Same as last time.)
I’m a bit of an indies person, so recently I’ve finished “Session: Skate Sim”, a game that really impressed me with the depth of its movement and how rewarding it feels to progress it. I’ve also just finished “Lonely Mountains Downhill”, that even though it doesn’t have advanced mechanics, more than makes up for it on the discovery factor by allowing you to forge your own path to finish the tracks.
Right now I’ve just started “Furi” that seems to be half 2D shooter half beat-em-up where there are only boss fights, all in great combination with the psychedelic graphics and electronic soundtrack. I’ve also started to play “Disco Elysium” as I’ve seen multiple people here and in hexbear recommending it, but just some hours in I can tell it’s going to take a long time to finish it.
I’m more of a CRPG person (which is basically apart of the AA rather than the Indie and AAA scene).
Disco Elysium and now Baldur’s Gate 3 are good examples of this.
