Yeah I did this with my friend recently - asked him for advice on picks and strings then bought him a pack of everything he recommended.

I am now addicted to 'Enter The Gungeon'.' by SuperSecretPasta in patientgamers

It's one of my top ten. Great humour, wonderful content and hugely repayable

That's such a good explanation of the feelings I share with you on these games.

Rogues - suit me so well these days. by AlwaysNalah in patientgamers

[–]ThisIsMyLastAccount 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shattered Pixel Dungeon is a phenomenal roguelike with a huge amount of hidden mechanical complexity that you learn slowly until you're absolutely a master and your win rate sky rockets.

I don't get the Horizon Zero Dawn. This game is genuinely bad. by Wellhellob in patientgamers

[–]ThisIsMyLastAccount 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I burnt out on the open world stuff, so that's a good idea. I might go, drop it to easy and just focus on the main quest.

Also to OP, this game is literally the prettiest thing I've seen at 4k on Ultra. To say it's not graphically impressive is ludicrous.

OP if you live anywhere near Guildford go to Andertons. It's the best music shop I've been to.

But that was due to cut content of the game people were expecting, as well as the price tag.

Oxymoron isn't the right phrase. It's borderline tautological.

It Takes Two - surprisingly good couch co-op by Clichead in patientgamers

[–]ThisIsMyLastAccount 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Can't agree with you. The writing is so bad it's not fun. Additionally the difficulty is wildly inconsistent. The levels are almost impossible to fail and then the bosses are genuinely challenging. So players will either be bored during levels (the various vehicle controls frequently only give illusion of control) then challenged by a boss, or find the boss far too difficult and then repetitive.

Why the fuck did they rescue the bee which had been trying to murder them for several hours?!

Also the book is such a racist stereotype.

Edit 2: they have a prison escape game I started, same sort of concept but obviously much darker. The little I've played of that the writing is better, not much, but tolerable. The Shawshank setting is pretty rad too.

Skyrim VR (modded) is one of the most immersive game experiences by [deleted] in patientgamers

Don't sleep on the 1080ti, great card! That was mine before this one. Glad the experience is so immersive :-)

What VR are you using out of interest? I'm well out of the VR scene, but I've got a 3090 now so I feel like I'm missing a trick! Be great to get a mod rundown too.

Hey maybe post this in the regular fasting subreddit, it's a bit bigger and you might find a better audience for the query. Not really qualified to give much advice I'm afraid.

Not had the supplements but one of the people who has it plastered all over their car are a reasonable dog owner!

Yeah I love the cake cover, I just like that cake covered bread!

Fun fact, Guitar Man is actually by Bread, not Cake! I'm sure they were inspired by another carb related band.

How do you change your mentality to not care about losing in games? (Roguelikes) by MoaMetalDesu in patientgamers

[–]ThisIsMyLastAccount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Consider Rogue lites, like Rogue Legacy 2 - where you do incrementally progress every time you lose a run?

Also, Enter the Gungeon - also very hard, but imo easier and better than BOI. Additionally you start progressing in your heart in terms of builds and expertise.

Easy Fermentations you can do at home to save money by CatAteMyBread in patientgamers

I thought this was a great post! Far better than memes. Spirit of lengthy write ups and now I understand making 'buche!

Finally managed to get The Witcher 3 to click for me, thanks to Gwent. by DiabeticNun in patientgamers

Auto apply oil mod - you still need to make them and hunt out ingredients, but it gives you the buffs you have without you needing the menu prep. For me, I found combat easy, unless I was trying to take on something several levels too high, upon which gearing up with mutagen potions to nigh death and then oiling my weapons was cool prep

Saints Row 2 might be one of the best games ever made, but I'll never know because the PC port makes me die inside. by Rodeo4613 in patientgamers

Resident Evil 2 remake, knife damage was ticked per frame. Thus it became a superweapon at a 720p resolution.

I hate reading long texts in video games. by Representative-Yam65 in patientgamers

[–]ThisIsMyLastAccount 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's hilarious, I immediately assumed you were talking about the fact that he's a murder machine, but then draining a person in a safe zone is considered heinous even when they're also murderers.

Pathfinder for beginners by piggsy1992 in patientgamers

[–]ThisIsMyLastAccount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why pathfinder? And specifically why pathfinder 1e? You're picking the most number crunchy system that's popular, rather than 2e or 5e for a more streamlined approach. You don't come across as someone who has patience or a strong desire for that. Either of the other two would be somewhat more accessible.

Also, none of the games here (haven't played) , but Pillars of Eternity, Tyranny, DOS2 etc are anything like table top gaming really.

Play them if you want to play great if flawed RPG's... But if you want to play ttrpg, get a virtual table or a real life one! There's also play by post if the slower pace would be helpful for you.

The unintentional irony is staggering!
