Best Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 I'm even completely bored at work! I've litteraly sat at my computer for 7 hours straight replying to 3 emails. My life has no meaning when I don't have a game to play. I'm completely stumped here in what game I should play and beat before 9/6. Help me out and list your top 5 games from last year and this half year. I think I've played every AAA but there might be a gem I'm overlooking.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 4. Oli Oli World That's all I've tried that released in the last two years. I've got a few others backlogged until I finish Zelda.

I never finished XB3 and I forget why I stopped playing it. I was really enjoying it and maybe 30 hours in. I'll keep this on my mind.

Best Posted August 8, 2023 Author Share Posted August 8, 2023 Someone please save me from FF16! Fucking game doesn't know when to end. I put in an hour and a half and it refuses to pick up. I refuse to stop though because I made it so far. 2 hours ago, AbsolutSurgen said: Yup. I've put over 40 hours into it (it was also one of the top 10 most played games on Steam Deck last month).

In case you forget, something else releases that day. It's looking like I played most games. 2 of the bigger releases of Ball Sacks Gate 3 and Remnant 2 are not going to work out for.

Bacon Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Strangers of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origins. It's not story heavy. You can make the game very easy. Grounded and Simple combat, souls-like. Graphical fidelity is nothing special but I like its style. I know it's "final fantasy" and you've been unlucky in that regard but it's literally the best FF ever made that isn't an MMO. Also, you can basically just pretend SoP has nothing to do with FF. It just happens to be a fun action game that with an FF skin. It's why so many FF fans dislike it.

So I went to YouTube and the video reviews are very solid. Last gen visuals with a big emphasis on combat. I am fine with it looking dated because I love great combat in games. Thanks a lot for recommending this sleeper hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks a lot for recommending this sleeper hit. The reviews aren't amazing. A lot of the bad reviews from fans and critics are based on post-credits content. It also had poor performance for a game so visually dated on PC. Opencritic has it as 72 with 52% recommended. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
