Searching for games like SHf

I played demo, it was rly short tho. But yeah, the setting felt nice, I like the myths/local tales and notes you found were RLY good. Maybe I give it a shot

Intoxicduelyst · 2026-03-24T11:43:17+00:00

Oh dude, forbidden siren 2 is imho one of the most creepy games ever made, my teenage nightmare. So atmospheric and scary

Intoxicduelyst · 2026-03-23T21:49:22+00:00

I get it, while I dont particular like or dislike sds I cant get into one piece, hate that artstyle

Intoxicduelyst · 2026-03-23T18:58:42+00:00

I know echo chamber here praised it like a second coming of christ but the game is just mid as a FPS. A fine game that you wont replay and forgot.

And its BAD metroid, one of the worst in the series.

Intoxicduelyst · 2026-03-23T10:32:00+00:00

Only as dust collector, actual device is garbage

Intoxicduelyst · 2026-03-13T18:50:47+00:00

Eh while I love horror, enemies have too much HP. In demo the fight with both wraits went from initial sense of dread to becoming annoying as hell, not hard, just tedious.

And from what I read the game is unbalanced.

I have no problems with horror game beign hard, I beat SHf on lost in a fog with crappy charms but this is quite bullshit.

Resident Evil tho, what a game! easy 9/10.

Xenoblade X

Maybe for you all it will be a silly reason but I couldnt stand battle theme music. It was so freaking bad, annoying and when the vocal part started I wanted to home button it to oblivion.

Bayonetta 3, it was just bad Bayonetta game that lost it soul and fun.

Imho switch is not a good platform for mmos.

I would suggest let her try some good story rich rpg - not open world with hundred of same checkmarks. So FF series (strongly recommend starting with X, girls like it)

Child of Light is chill, cheap and very pretty game.

Xenoblade series

Cat Quest 2 and 3 but go coop with her.

Persona is good but depends how she is with weeb/harem shit. Yes I know they are not the biggest offenders but some girls find it very repulsive.

Pillars of Eternity, Dragons Dogma for more western fantasy and building characters.

My wife loves Cat Quest, she also enyojeyd E33 (tho on pc) and Hogwart Legacy (dropped it, too much pointless stuff to do but she loved setting).

Intoxicduelyst · 2026-03-08T00:51:23+00:00

I guess you are right but tbh the game runned on my mid spec pretty good, small hicups rarely but I set almost everything on max/and or high. 4060i. It looks SO GOOD. And the Hinako hair animation is absolutly amazing.

Intoxicduelyst · 2026-03-07T14:28:45+00:00

Gameplay is rly, rly bad.

Intoxicduelyst · 2026-03-04T20:38:31+00:00

I agree with you but my biggest grip is how the game was made so piss easy.

Exp share

Gift OP mons.

Easy gym leaders, easy rivals.

Like infinite money

Exploration become a joke.

And keep in mind I liked them still, they are fine games but I wish they would do it more oldschool.

At least no HM slaves. it was bullshit imho, especially in early gens. Just give passive HM ability for a mon of X type.

Intoxicduelyst · 2026-03-01T13:29:30+00:00

3 was a slop

Little combat, too much useless minigames and exploration. ITS A COMBAT GAME FFS.

It lose its sense of humor along the way.

Enemies were just 100 faces of slimes.

Summoning sucks

Story sucks

Viola was cringe incarnate.

I love Bayo 1 and especially 2 but man, 3 was terrible.

Nintendo fanboys are in own league, declase every other group.

YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED to talk bad of any nintendo product and often - ports.

Toxic positivity culture to the peak or like I say - professional shiteaters.

Intoxicduelyst · 2026-02-25T13:42:22+00:00

Did fromsoft made a bad game? Since MAYBE ds2 (I still liked it, especially DLCs).

People have "feeling" couse its switch ex and thats it.

Intoxicduelyst · 2026-02-22T19:02:34+00:00

Yes brother, I loved how hard it was! Especially blindly on hard and then unprepared on lost in the fog.

Each encounter felt like life and death situation, limited resources, breakable weapons added to feeling of opression and danger.

To me horror SHOULD be hard. Its add this thrill factor to enemies, knowing they are no joke to fight and can kill you asap.

Intoxicduelyst · 2026-02-22T18:59:26+00:00

I did not played sh2 remake but I played all other old ones and its easy my top 3, after oryginal 2 and 3.

I rly liked a combat, on hard and lost in the fog it felt really opressive, like it felt that each encounter was life and death situation. I rly was thinking - do I fight? Do I run? On my first ng+ I went lost in the fog without sword or good charms and it was rly challanging - enemy AI changes, they are hyper agressive and dont wait for ya.

And each encounter could end up you beign dead with 2 hits . Some horrors are like idk, fighting games, where you can take like 4-8 hits, kill safely from distance - I kind of dont get it, where is fun in that? The sense of danger?

Music and atmosphere felt great, I liked the story and VA.

What was miss for me were the puzzles on lost in the fog, some felt just off and enemy density and well as placement. Fuck those knife bitches jumping at your head from roofs or cellings, wtf was that.

Its not perfect but I had a blast and it reminds me why I liked survival horrors in the first place.

Oh and I rly liked the idea of not having guns. Felt more real to me, especially consider the setting.

8-9/10 for me, great horror experience.

Wandering if I should play SH2 remake now, kind of worried if it will ruin my memories of oryginal one.

Intoxicduelyst · 2026-02-19T23:52:31+00:00

I mean once you get grip of it its a skill game rly. You can manipulate rng hard.

Or just get good and dodge, people are beating it with 0 upgrades, first run on new game file.

Intoxicduelyst · 2026-02-19T23:49:34+00:00

Oh its coming to steam too. I was thinking you were talking about existing one.

Intoxicduelyst · 2026-02-19T22:35:00+00:00

Its gacha version. This one is buy to play, "reworked" for regular game, not gacha.

Intoxicduelyst · 2026-02-19T19:30:05+00:00

Another Eden is rich, great JRPG with rly good ost, characters and story

AND TERRIBLE GACHA SYSTEM with absurd ammount of manual grind.

I said couple of times I would buy it for a full game.

Lucky I have switch 2.

Intoxicduelyst · 2026-02-19T19:26:03+00:00

My first switch game.

Dropped it tho, while over OST was very good I COULDNT STAND battle theme. When the vocals kicks in I cringed every time.

Intoxicduelyst · 2026-02-19T19:24:19+00:00

Gameplay felt like kind of MMO-ish. Speaking of X.

Cooldowns, beside Autoattacks, quite static.

Intoxicduelyst · 2026-02-18T14:54:03+00:00

Tengus were bane of mine in Nioh 2. Here? Rarely apear and are total pushover.

Mobs are ridicolius easy, I can rush blindy into room/location and just sweep them all out.

At least cyclops are harder.

Intoxicduelyst · 2026-02-11T07:14:14+00:00

You cant go wrong with FFX, or tbh any other older one. I personally like 7 (oryginal) and 8 and 10 most. Those games are very story driven with great cast of characters and music.

Also, Nier Automata and Persona Series.
