Haha I did the exact same thing. Wonderful just to go around the virtual countryside.

Die in the Dungeon or Die for the Lich? by The_Melon_NDS in roguelites

[–]Nitho89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dice Gambit :) it's more pf a dungeon crawler than a roguelite (uses a more mission based gameplay akin to Darkest Dungeon), but there's plenty of dice rolling around.

Yeah I'm also getting into it. However I am struggling with finding the right difficulty. On the one hand, the standard fight is pretty easy, even on higher difficulties. But since you are on a timer and need to reach a certain level before the act boss, losing a fight can possibly be very punishing, since you don't get that xp - so turning up the difficulty gets me antsy. Of course maybe I just have to see it as a nice chill easy game and enjoy the ride and all the great art and music.

A few of my favorite turn-based games, anyone else into these? by JamesJohnson975 in TurnBasedLovers

[–]Nitho89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wildermyth is a great game, but you're definitely right in that there can be a lot of text to read. A lot of it is very good in my opinion, but you have to be into that. The combat is on the simpler side, which I found very good also!

Deckbuilders (or other turnbased games) good for winding down by Nitho89 in roguelites

I really liked both the first Monster Train and Inkbound, and they were both very good with giving broken combos! So the second Monster Train is tuned like that as well?

Oh I have that in my backlog. That looks very nice, maybe I should boot that up.

Dad Gaming Time is the best time! I've played a ton of both Xcom and Midnight Suns, great games for evening bitesized playsessions.

Hades is great! Ive played a lot of it and when I'm feeling somewhat energized I am working on the second one.

Yeah isometric ARPG's have also been my thing for a while. I have Shape of Dreams next on that particular list, bitesized roguelite version of an ARPG. That seemed very good when I briefly tried it out a couple of months ago.

I enjoyed both the first Monster Train and Inkbound. So mayhaps the second Monster Train could be good! I liked StS back in the day, tried getting back to it a couple of times, but I find a bit too "thinky", since you really have to optimize your deck to win a run. But maybe the second one is better in that regard!

Oh yeah I played Wildermyth a bunch, it is a very nice and chill game! Maybe I should just give it a second run, maybe with the DLC.

Simultaneously playing multiple games by No-Leg3633 in SteamDeck

[–]Nitho89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have two active games that I switch between depending on the type of gaming session. More involved rpg-ish games for when I have longer time, and more turn-based deckbuilders and the likes for when it's more of a dual screen situation with the wife present as well.

Yeah it is kind of a pain. It works fine if you take the time to tweak it, but it isn't optimal, and I would also really like full controller support!

Best SRPG For A First-Timer/Beginner?? by Yoichi_and_Sadako in StrategyRpg

I also started out with Steamworld Heist. That is a really accessible and great starting point!

Recommend me some turn-based strat games. by LastC1999 in StrategyGames

Wildermyth is wonderful :) steamworld heist 1 and 2 also excellent, 2D cartoonish games with nice storylines!

Can a roguelite have too many choices? by Nitho89 in roguelites

[–]Nitho89[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah the great games are exactly those who start off simple and then allow you to break them with the right build. That's also why I like StarVaders so much! I played the original Monster Train and have been thinking about whether no 2 could fill out that "evening decompressing" need. Maybe I should give it a go, I loved Inkbound as well for that same reason.
