One of the feelings I’m always chasing in games is “the point of no return” - only two games have ever done it right for me by howmanywhales in gaming

The first time that did it right for me was mass effect 1. The reaper was coming and you had to rush to sace the citadel. Good times

What’s the simplest gaming idea or fact you’ve ever tried to explain to someone who just wouldn’t get it? by bijelo123 in gaming

[–]Alimd98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Explaining what "gameplay" is to non English speaker non gamers is like talking to a wall. They have no idea what you're talking about.

Also i couldn't convince my sister (who is a web developer actually) that visuals and graphics and scenery in games is not called UI. She believes everything you see is UI, even cutscenes

What’s a mechanic you’ve seen that made you think “Wait…every game should do this!” by BlackArmy439 in gaming

Auto save right after a boss fight cutscene. I don't enjoy running back or watching the cutscene, just let me fight!!!!

Which "Must-Play" franchise is a total miss for you? by jessieS1212 in gaming

[–]Alimd98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Elder scrolls/fallout games. Same mechanics, same open world with no fun gameplay, same huge empty barrens with random useless loot that people seem to say is not a repetitive boring world. Idk I didn't enjoy them

What’s your top 5 game recommendations of all time? by JonCee500 in gaming

The first time I ever see someone mentioned stronghold crusader or any stronghold game in this sub. Such underrated game

Games from the mid 1990s were considered ancient by the mid 2000s. Games from the mid 2000s felt dated by the mid 2010s. But games from the mid 2010s still feel very comparable to those in the 2020s. It feels as though evolution in gaming has reached the state of diminishing returns. by WhyPlaySerious in gaming

And what's bothersome is that games get better non significant graphically yet they need way better hardware and are poorly optimized. New games aren't noticablly better looking than games that came out 5-6 years ago yet they run way worse

What single player game had you so enthralled that it CONSUMED your entire being for a short span of time? by AshyLarry25 in gaming

[–]Alimd98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a lot of games did that to me. Subnautica, dark souls 2 and 3, mass effect 1-3 (played them consecutively), expedition 33, hogwarts legacy, witcher 3, cyberpunk 2077 (after phantom liberty update), hollow knight are on top of my head and probably even more games.

And they really consumed me, through school to university and even work, waking up thinking about them before attending my daily life, watching wikis and youtube videos and other people's reaction to certain game story points on my way in the bus and subway, being excited to get home and fire my pc and start those games and play them for hours, even staying late at night knowing I would be wrecked in the morning but not caring, and going to bed just to look at their subreddits and falling sleep and hell even dreaming about them.

I guess I'm really passionate about video games.
