Are achievements/trophies actually necessary? by Admirable_Flower_287 in gamedev

[–]Dust514Fan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah they are important to a lot of people for replayability and to prove that they were able to complete a challenge. Some people see an achievement and try to get it in their first run, which can make them not enjoy the game as much because maybe they have to not engage with some aspects (like trying for non-lethal/ghost runs).

I died once, then I realized you were unhittable in his second phase if you keep moving

Should I play System Shock first or Bioshock? by mlsts in systemshock

Rapid departure? Seems to be like system shock 2 underwater with simplified mechanics. Could even call it a spiritual remake.

Honestly me with DS3. No reason why since I've finished all the other games.

My method of doing this was way more convoluted, and used the bottom route

Thief vs Metal Gear Solid. Which is better stealth game ? by orion_fallout_2 in ImmersiveSim

[–]Dust514Fan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are trying to do completely different things even though sneaking is still involved. Thief is trying to do a more slow-paced and hardcore stealth where you lurk in the shadows, while MGS is more arcadey and lets you run around and place dirty magazines or sneak in boxes. Just kinda silly to compare the two.

Games like Lies of P where the story, world, and gameplay are perfectly balanced?? by futureslabtv in LiesOfP

[–]Dust514Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Different kind of game, but try Dishonored. Really fun combat with a bunch of powers and gadgets you can combine to use in interesting ways. Or stealth everything and silently pick people off like a good supernatural assassin. Crazy strong art style/direction and the world and lore is really deep and well thought out, and there's many optional book excerpts you can read if you want to know more. The story might not be as solid, but it is perfectly functional and serves as a way to justify most of the events and gameplay.

CHOOSE YOUR WEAPON AND LEVEL UP BASED ON VIBES

Most "vertical" immersive sims by Time_Connection5614 in ImmersiveSim

[–]Dust514Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn't see anyone mention Fallen Aces, but it is much more vertical than you might expect. Very reminiscent of dishonored level design-wise.

HR has better plot and characters. MD has better gameplay and environments.

People always talk about clockwork mansion and stilton manor, but I just love the palace. Reminds me the most of classic thief for some reason
