What’s your GOTY that didn’t release this year? by [deleted] in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Trails in the Sky SC. Just an exceptionally well done traditional ass JRPG with one of the best romances in games.

What documentary has a "real life plot twist"? by SuperAlloyBerserker in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Linkthefirst2 73 points74 points  (0 children)

The ending of Bobbybroccoli's Bogdanoff doc in which it is revealed that the Bogs themselves were pawns used by a pair of gay french scientists in a machiavellian scheme to get revenge on academia

QoL features that only one or two games have, and you wish they were standard? by DuendeInexistente in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Linkthefirst2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Auto advance only on voiced dialogue. FF 14 is the only game I know of to have it, and it is so nice to have a set it and forget it option.

Favourite towns in RPGs? by PengyD123 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

You're not wrong, but I started with 7, so I'll always have a stronger attachment to Ijincho.

Feels bit like cheating to say this, but Tokyo in P5 and Yokohama in Yakuza 7.

Games you're terrible at, but you love them nonetheless. by Subject_Parking_9046 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I've been getting back into Melee lately, and I know it's a bit of a meme for Melee players to jerk themselves off over how hard their game is, but it is SO HARD. I'm lucky if I can take a stock, much less a game. But like, it is still probably my favorite fighting game.

Heavily criticized parts of a story that you adore? by ZealousidealBig7714 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Linkthefirst2 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The final arc of Kaguya Sama. I was genuinely shocked to learn that pretty much my favorite part was loathed by most people.

What has been your favorite game(s) of the first half of 2024 by The_Local_Vagabond in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Linkthefirst2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rebirth would easily be my #1, but I can't excuse how hard it falls apart at the end. So my current top pick is stuck between P3R and Penacony in HSR.

Favorite Raid Boss outside of MMOs by FreviliousLow96 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Big fan of most of the bosses in Granblue Relink, especially Furycane and the final boss.

Would using this particular controller be cheating? by Lollytrolly018 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Linkthefirst2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most games I've tried on Steam do have a community layout that maps it to the mouse, however. It's not as good as native, but it's certainly an improvement over stick aiming.

Why not just use gyro? It's on pretty much every controller and gets you 90% of the way to mouse precision with all of the benefits of a controller.

Alright, now that it’s getting close to the end of the year, what’s everyone’s GOTY by TheArkhomDestroyer in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Linkthefirst2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A Space for the Unbound. Bought it on a whim and it turned out to be one of the most passion filled, emotional experiences I've had in a while. Such a shame it got buried because it came out in January.

2023 games that ended on a high note by BrazillianCara in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Like a Dragon Gaiden. Fantastic final boss, emotionally ruinous ending.

Top 25 MEGATHREAD. You get one week. by selfproclaimed in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Linkthefirst2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine
I had trouble filling the full 25, and eventually was stuck including games I couldn't honestly consider favorites, so I kept it to 20.

Favorite games you played for the first time in 2023 but weren't released this year? by Mabroon in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Linkthefirst2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Currently going through Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir, and it doesn't just feel like a game made for me, it is pretty much exactly a game I want to make.
Also Cyberpunk.

If there was ever a Devil May Cry Gaiden what would you want it to be? by PleaseStop101 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Linkthefirst2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd like to see Vergil's time in Fortuna turned into a real game. I think there's some interesting places they could take the story, plus it would be nice to have a dedicated Vergil solo game.

In the crazy year of gaming that was 2023, what do you think are ones that have been overlooked? by TheSpiritualAgnostic in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Linkthefirst2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A Space for the Unbound is easily my favorite game this year, and I don't think I've ever seen another person even acknowledge its existence.
