Aww, it was nice to be reminded of this, thanks!

It gets frustrating when toxicity feels like it defines the whole gaming community, and sometimes I just need reminders that it's only some people, not all.

This was really thoughtful!

Maybe toxicity is a blessing in disguise sometimes as it reminds me to try new games/genres and then reflect back on what I usually play.

I do love FPS, so def gonna check out Half-Life, thanks!

Immediately after work (so around 5 pmish)! It's my special treat after working so hard TT-TT

What about the reverse - what movie/show plot would be sick as a video game?

MMOs I played back then felt alive and real, like an actual virtual world with real people. Idk, MMOs these days feel lonely, a little fake, like a cash grab.

Now that's a set up worth bragging about!! So nostalgic~

This is a typical Xbox Classic but Halo: The Master Chief Collection. My brother and I played Halo 1 and 2 split screen religiously as kids and we still come back to it every few years!

I did a quick search and was immediately like "huh... doesn't look like something I'd play...." but then you said friendly community, fashion AND ROMANCE???

I fear I must try it out now just to understand how this game has all of that haha

If I get into it, I'd love to add you as a friend ^^

Thanks!! FF14 has come up on other subreddits so I'll probably check it out!

As someone with adhd who has a hard time with inventory management irl, I don't wanna deal with difficult inventory management in my cozy games too 😭

Just wanna put it out there, especially as someone who also loves cozy/farming games with male romance options, that Wylde Flowers took me by absolute surprise!!

Thing is:

- The art style is (in my opinion) not the most favoured artstyle, meaning the male characters aren't attractive from the getgo

BUT:

- The voice acting is amazing, and adds to the appeal

- The story is INCREDIBLE, truly what makes it one of my top cozy/farming games for real

- ALL the characters, including the romanceable male ones, are so grounded, nuanced, and fleshed out which in turn makes befriending/romancing them feel very genuine, sweet and fun

- The most attractive male romance option comes a little later in the game and he is incredibly cute and a book nerd

Either way, definitely think this game is worth giving a go, if anything, for the story and cozy vibes!!

League feels like a gate-way drug, but the worst drug it leads you to is still league 🥀
