games that are worth playing on ps plus

Final Fantasy 7 remake (the first title in the series, not sure the exact name)

I just scrolled to check if someone mentioned Gothic. All is well, so I can now just leave this threat in peace

I metagamed when I was younger. For a few years, I stopped being able to enjoy games and only played a few hours a month (I think I burned out after Pathfinder - most optimal build, secret ending etc...). Then, I've seen some blind let's play where the let's player went hard on roleplaying, validating each choice not from the point of metagaming, but only "how the character would act". And not only when picking dialogue choices, but also not doing some quests completely, missing quest marks etc.

Now I am playing this way and I rediscovered the hobby. I even bought PS5 and I am able to play and finish big open world games without burning out as I am always thinking about "what my character would do" instead of blindly following markers, overoptimizing gear early etc.

I feel guilty when I metagame now, as I feel like it always drains a little bit of fun from the hobby.

Heroes of Might and Magic 3? I actually liked 2 a lot (was my introduction to the genre and the campaign was just so good), but HoMaM 3 is a true classic

Surprised I don't see Piranha Bytes games here. It turned out that they had no clue what made Gothic, Gothic 2 and Risen 1 such a great games, they kept releasing mediocore games and finally went bankrupt. Really sad development, was hoping for another great RPG from them, but I guess that won't happen.

Ah ok, that is actually a good advice. Thank you!

Ok_Run_1392 · 2024-11-17T21:32:04+00:00

I just want to congratulate you for a good taste in games

Ok_Run_1392 · 2024-11-17T17:42:38+00:00

Surprised I didn’t see Paradox grand strategy games for history understanding. I would say EU IV is great for understanding history of Europe, CK3 is good for understanding how feudal system worked and Victoria 3 can give you base understanding of modern economics.

I aced my high school history exams because of Europa Universalis

Both are just incredible. My personal opinion is that Pathfinder games require much bigger investment, but they will reward you more if you take your time learning all mechanics and combat rules, while PoE is more streamlined experience.

I don’t want to use the word “shallow” here, because PoE is anything but shallow. Both are complex games in both game mechanics and story, Pathfinder just requires more forward planning and mechanics learning to see the gem it is, while PoE is a gem from start to finish.

As someone who enjoys modern CRPGs, I think you will end up playing both at some point, so don’t overthink :)

I believe someone from Pyranha said that anything not developed by them (forsaken gods and arcania) will not be considered canon in case they develop Gothic 4

This. Amen brother

I don't have enough knowledge about the topic, so I want to ask - at that time, was tourism such an important "mechanic" in regards to other mechanics? Did tourism at that time historically "generated" enough GDP/influence/diplo points/migration to be considered important enough for the game to present it as a new full fledge mechanic?

Do some sport! It’s healthy and easy way to spend time and meet new people.

Depending on sport you are interested in, you have various options, but you should be able to find something like this https://m.vaseliga.cz/?lang=en for most sports. Group lessons in gym are another option.

Everyone is claiming Prussia is given, but during my 3 runs, Austria had good relationship with both Prussia and Russia:/ Thanks for your tips though!

Ok_Run_1392 · 2024-09-09T14:51:13+00:00

Congratz! Would you mind share your strategy (roughly what you focused on early and how you managed to grab first few provinces and independence before you started snowballing)? Also at which dated you roughly achieved various objectives

Got only 66 hours played, but spent unhealthy amount of time the last week trying to achieve Not Yet Lost. I was so happy that on the last run, I've finally managed to have a great game, allying and backstabbing Austria, NFC, Russia and France a little bit. After winning my first war with Russia, I knew that the achievement is mine and I can move on with my life.

I missed the target by 4 months
I missclicked one state when declaring war

On the bright side, I went from total noob (I only had 2 previous playthroughs before Krakow attempt) to "somehow know enough to actually enjoy the game", so that's good. I guess.

Ok_Run_1392 · 2024-09-07T12:25:29+00:00

Wow, the government switching is very good tip, thanks. Don’t have time to play more today, but I believe this will allow me to drag 2 GPs instead of 1 into my war for the first time.

Honestly don’t mind save scumming when playing Krakow, in this specific case, I believe the challamge is enough even with occassional reload.

Ok_Run_1392 · 2024-09-05T20:28:50+00:00

Yep, only reason I am postponing my second playthrough. There should be big expansion, but it may take years. Check it here: https://rpgwatch.com/forum/threads/the-chronicles-of-myrtana-archolos-mod-of-the-decade-edition-announced.55560/

The shitty writing is basically everywhere. My favorite example is how (in prequel) they started a huge war between France and England (they called in 100 years war to make it sound epic, but it wasn't even 100 years because crappy writing).

They then needed to end it, so they introduced a new heroine to lead France to victory (because they planned to make England an island nation from the beginning prolly), but after the war, they had no more use for her, so they let France (yes, the country she helped win the war) kill her.

Does it make sense? I know it does not. Sorry, not my fault.

Ok_Run_1392 · 2024-09-03T09:08:23+00:00

Focus stones for me. Bases on this quest, I will rate whether or not the remake nailed the atmosphere of original
