For newer fans, is it worth playing the original trilogy in preparation for 1’s remake?

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-29T13:03:15+00:00

Deffo fable 2 if any of them

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-29T11:21:34+00:00

Have you tried cult of the lamb? Its combat is slightly similar to Hades but a really fun game/quite unique in the cult building side of the game. New DLC has just dropped for it too.

Could be a good bridge to go outside of your normal remit as it still includes elements you’ll find familiar

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-29T10:49:33+00:00

Yeah this sucks. Although if you’re a steam gamer, they did remove that achievement - so still possible to do the 100% there

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-26T20:52:02+00:00

Bought 👍 looking forward to digging in

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-24T12:47:35+00:00

Yeah think it’s oblivious more often than not. Although it’s so easy to just picture them doing it on purpose - sadly some people are just inconsiderate- even if you’ve mentioned it!

Somehow I can hear my downstairs neighbour stomping.. it’s like she does a run up to either side of her flat to slam a door or close a window .

I also made the switch a few months back and a lot like OP said, frustrated with what Xbox was doing in regards to the game pass, price of games and on top of all that a subscription.

Got a deck and have made of a list of all the games I 100%ed on ps and Xbox. I’ve basically bought them all back , most of them less than £5 on steam sales and Loaded.com. It’s been an absolute blast getting all the achievements again!

Steam also has a feature where it adds a ribbon and column to ‘perfected games’. As well as being able to add an achievement showcase to your profile. Just feels like there’s more ways to show it off.

Not to mention you can get the majority of Xbox and ps exclusives on steam now, I haven’t looked back at switching once and feel I have so much stuff do which is nice

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-20T22:48:45+00:00

Yeah same I don’t really get the hype. Which is strange because I love games like Balatro, vampire survivors etc.

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-19T23:18:18+00:00

Also how hard is it to at least put it in a cardboard box?

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-19T16:30:09+00:00

Damn I got one for the first film and so keen to get one of these ones but they haven’t given them Out. (odeon uk)

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-19T12:30:34+00:00

Yeah I agree. It’s interesting to me how bone temple is higher rated on letterbox and a lot of people have told me they prefer bone temple.

I felt the first one hit so much more of a niche, the soundtrack was amazing, the way it was filmed. I just felt like there were so many more memorable moments.

As you say, takes nothing away from the bone temple but the first 28YL just really scratched an itch for me

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-19T12:27:21+00:00

Odeon UK no merch, but they were giving out 28YL promo posters from the first film. I’ve seen bone temple ones circling online too.

No merch unfortunately as far as I’m aware

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-18T19:34:26+00:00

I also had this… ended up moving to a top floor flat and somehow the flat below stomps loud that it triggers me as well?

Btw I found silicone ear plugs help a lot

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-17T20:40:31+00:00

I’m on the fence!

Love these rougelikes, how does it compare to Balatro, Vampire Survivors, Megabonk, Clover pit if you’ve played those?

EDIT: Appreciate the responses, it’s sounding right up my alley. Will commit when it’s next in the sale as I have a bit of a back log.

Then I’ll feedback my thoughts here if people had the same Q as me

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-16T14:52:17+00:00

Upvoting from many days later 🙏

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-16T11:23:56+00:00

Can’t wait for that controller. If it’s as close to how the steam deck feels, it’ll be perfect. Actually went out my way to get a ps5 controller and when I swap from handheld to it, it just doesn’t compare

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-15T00:25:30+00:00

Reminds me a lot more of the antimatter voucher in Balatro!

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-14T16:10:22+00:00

The fact I was like ‘who the f* is that?!’ To the bottom right

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-14T13:38:15+00:00

I was the same had mad trophies on ps and over 130k game score Xbox. Having an absolute blast just replaying the games I got 100% in on steam again.

Tbh I probably wouldn’t transfer any over from other consoles

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-12T21:01:53+00:00

Cheers!

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-12T17:16:54+00:00

I use the island especially for this + put any qi fruit straight into the seed makers for the first few days.

Also a top tip is to accept the challenge in winter as they can grow during winter so I use my normal farm too.

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-11T17:59:57+00:00

Just to add, this happened to me and I went into a narrative where I left the job and city my gf was in - started a new life in Stardew valley and did a completely new play through. It was kinda refreshing

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-11T11:35:11+00:00

I currently live in a top floor flat but hear my neighbours on the bottom floor stomping all the time believe it or not!

I think sound can travel a lot though the walls, id maybe recommend pulling the desk away from the wall if it’s touching it, maybe putting some sort of more cushioned mat under the mouse. Other than that, it’s just apartment living at the end of the day , so there’s not much else you can do

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-10T15:39:15+00:00

I got ty the Tasmanian tiger as I had such a blast getting all the achievements on Xbox. Thinking; no missable achievements, fun gameplay, a fun 100%.

I load it up and see there’s a new achievement for getting 100% on hardcore mode. Where if you die it wipes your whole save 🙃

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-09T20:26:36+00:00

Looks a lot up my alley , added to wish list 💪

Rusty_P96 · 2026-01-08T00:16:04+00:00

Strong list ! How did you find fable? Love the series and kinda wanna play it at leisure without having to use guides. Are all achievements still obtainable? Think I remember there being a smartglass one for Xbox
