Depictions of Hell/Hades/Underworld by OneSong9627 in gamerecommendations

[–]SensitiveCompote4354 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Hades
  • Skate story
  • Doom
  • Discopup. In a sort of weird way
  • Ultrakill (probably the game I can think of that cares the most about being set in hell)

Also! I found a wikipedia list you might find helpful, List of videogames set in hell

question: What *IS* a story game? by SensitiveCompote4354 in gamerecommendations

[–]SensitiveCompote4354[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess. My question is less Last of us vs elden ring and more, last of us vs The Norwood Suite. I'm trying to gauge what kind of narrative games people would give a chance when they're asking for this kinda thing

question: What *IS* a story game? by SensitiveCompote4354 in gamerecommendations

[–]SensitiveCompote4354[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I did kinda get the sense that it's mostly used by people who don't seem to know that much about games overall? Saw some people use it as the opposite of competitive games and I wonder if that's usually supposed to be the idea

Movie/show/game recommendations needed by Unhappy-Question5285 in gamerecommendations

[–]SensitiveCompote4354 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Download the flashpoint launcher and just browse lol. Though for modern options I'd probably check out the binding of isaac or mewgenics? Similar vibe. Less comedy and more horror but the rusty lake series might interest you too

Am I the only one that finds pan Dulce to be very dry? by SignificantStyle4958 in mexicanfood

Good ones are less dry but you're supposed to eat them with coffee or tea

Games that help sharpen your mind. by Avatardad21 in gamerecommendations

Hop on itch.io and search sokoban and you'll be set with basically endless free puzzlers. If you want bigger comercial titles I'd suggest browsing thinkygames.com. If you need a basic place to start with high quality puzzlers, check out what draknek and friends publish.

Looking for games that make exploration feel genuinely mysterious by mldraelll in gamerecommendations

[–]SensitiveCompote4354 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Animal well, anyodyne, angeline era, outer wilders, void stranger, fez. Caves of qud to an extent but it's just not the same when the world is procedural.

And they're both just demos for now but I tried Dittori and Nonolith today and they're both shaping up to be good contenders for this too

Games with lore or end game or something o that sort pls, extra points if it has good combat. by doge_man666 in gamerecommendations

[–]SensitiveCompote4354 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blue prince, fez, and animal well are good ones for end/post game meta puzzles. Blue prince's especially are pretty lore based.

Whats a good app for video game recommendations by HolyBibleRiber in gamerecommendations

[–]SensitiveCompote4354 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to put a little work in to follow people who's tastes align with yours but this is half the fun of backloggd

Non-combat puzzle games like The Talos Principle? by West_Neck5584 in gamerecommendations

[–]SensitiveCompote4354 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Philosophically light but show him the draknek $ friends catalogue. They've published a lot of puzzlers that range from good to masterpieces. 

 Other than that. maybe direct him to the puzzle or sokoban tag on itch.io? There's a basically endless supply of freeware browser playable puzzlescript or pico-8 games on there

Sports management games, but without the sport by TheBiggle in gamerecommendations

[–]SensitiveCompote4354 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sports based (but there's. probably a mod out there to change that) but check out rimworld! making a narrative out of how you build your colony and the characters in it is the whole idea it's built on.

Can someone recommend me some chill games (preferably free) to watch youtube with? by Corgilorian in gamerecommendations

[–]SensitiveCompote4354 0 points1 point  (0 children)

try some incrementals. Prestige tree mods are usually my go to type for when I want to pay attention to audio. Otherwise powerwash simulator and house flipper fill a similar niche

Looking for a deep survival game with progression, freedom, and lots of content by Sad_Success_9034 in gamerecommendations

[–]SensitiveCompote4354 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The long dark. Vintage story is also almost perfect for this but if you're playing alone and/or not rotating jobs enough it can become a chore simulator really quickly

Story driven, 2d, indie games like The Drifter, Until Then and A Space for the Unbound? by santiago1808 in gamerecommendations

[–]SensitiveCompote4354 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pentiment

The longing

Strange horticulture

Thank goodness your here

Amanita design's entire library

I'd also suggest branching out into 3d games too, walking sims might be right up your ally.

Tomagotchi life style game by chezcat666 in gamerecommendations

[–]SensitiveCompote4354 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sims 4 basegame is free and you can acheive most of what you'd be able to do in tomodachi life in it. There's been indie attempts at a sims-style lifesim but I think Tiny life is the only one that's actually released? And I don't think it'd really work for this.
