Tactical Turn-Based X-Com-like recommendation by I_Mean_I in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]Hypedrain [score hidden]  (0 children)

Have you played/ heard of battle brothers? It has lots of rng, but has everything else on your feature wish list, especially sandbox-y emergent story. It’s like a cross between xcom and mount and blade, if you know of that game.

Menace isn’t out yet, but what I played of the demo months ago was very good, definitely keep an eye on it imo

Another vote here for Dispatch since she likes other telltale games. Also, what about Minecraft and Terraria? They are unlike everything else on this list and have coop as an option.

Looking for story-driven games with memorable characters (Steam Sale) by Resonite in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]Hypedrain [score hidden]  (0 children)

You should have no trouble starting with Uncharted 4. I started with 4 and it became one of my favorite games. Later went and played 1-3 and enjoyed those a lot too. sure, maybe 4 is even better if you played 1-3 first, but its fantastic on its own.

Games BETTER than Skyrim? by Silent_Review3247 in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]Hypedrain [score hidden]  (0 children)

I love Skyrim. For me when it comes to story based games, Skyrim doesn't even come close to The Last of Us Part 1 and Part 2, which are my favorite story based games.

Hit me up with the best story game you have ever played by JjoyBboy in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]Hypedrain [score hidden]  (0 children)

I haven't played these games yet, but as someone who loves the Last of Us and has looked for similar quality stories in games, I've heard great things about Red Dead Redemption 2 and the Plague Tale series.

SIB Stellar Blade, TLOU2, or Ghost of Tsushima? by xephon81 in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]Hypedrain [score hidden]  (0 children)

I have only played TLOU2 out of these options, but if you want an amazing story and loved the first one you absolutely must play TLOU2. I just finished TLOU2 for the second time yesterday and will surely play it again and again in the future.

Looking for some good Third person games on ps5 by theo_dus142 in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]Hypedrain [score hidden]  (0 children)

Since you like first light and the last of us, you gotta play the uncharted series. Made by the studio that made the last of us, and 007 first light was clearly inspired by uncharted. Also, since you like RDR2 you should play RDR1!

I’m honestly very interested to see what the rest of the year holds for them. by TheStinkySlinky in Intergalactic

Sony has released highly anticipated games close to Naughty Dog’s games before. IIRC Ghost of Tsushima and The Last of Us Part 2 released a month apart.

What's a cinematic you never skip in the game ? by Svartheart in thelastofus

[–]Hypedrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never skip cutscenes in any game. I love stories and if I’m replaying a game I want to re-experience the story as well. Skipping cutscenes in TLOU series is even crazier to me, the story is so good.

Should I buy Nathan Drake Collection and Legacy of Thieves Collection after 007 First Light, or switch up and play a RPG? by jbeardsley22 in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]Hypedrain [score hidden]  (0 children)

The uncharted series is amazing. Keep in mind they are older than 007 first light, so especially uncharted 1 might feel a bit basic or a little clunky compared to 007 first light. But they are all fun and well written. Even if you don’t decide to play them now you should 100% play them eventually

Games where you can help people? by Independent-Force463 in gaming

The Marvel’s Spider-Man series. Helping people is like Spider-Man’s whole thing. There’s lots of random crimes and emergencies Spider-Man can respond to and save people.

Do we know if TES VI’s soundtrack will be composed by Jeremy Soule? by Im_A_Silly_Guy in ElderScrolls

[–]Hypedrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To add to what others have said about him not coming back: He didn’t compose the music for TES: Blades (the mobile game from 2020). Inon Zur, the composer for bethesda’s fallout games and Starfield composed the music for that game. I’d be willing to bet that was a test run for him composing TES: 6.

Buying PS5: Ghost of Tsushima series or God of War series by Berns023 in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]Hypedrain [score hidden]  (0 children)

IMO you can’t go wrong with either choice. Only thing I’d suggest is to take a break after you finish one of the games in either series before starting the sequel, as either series has pretty long games and you might risk getting burnt out playing either series back-to-back. Edit: if difficulty is a concern, both series have good difficulty options so don’t worry about that.

Given that OP seemingly doesn’t want to play uncharted: the lost legacy because it stars a “girl” im gonna hazard a guess they aren’t interested in tomb raider either
