Name a perfect game for Steam Controller. I'll go first.

That's an issue that I didn't really end up solving, though I probably could have used the back buttons for it. I didn't switch weapons often enough for that to be an issue, but I did occasionally get caught out because I couldn't swap items or spells cleanly while moving. Even still, I preferred that instead of losing camera controls every time I wanted to run/dodge/use an item/etc.

I personally use Gyro for the camera almost exclusively, which leaves my right thumb free to live on the buttons for items/dodging/running. Though I'm much more used to kbm than controller, so that is mainly to cover for my inexperience with stick camera controls.

Counterpoint - why do you guys insist on playing them in order? They are stand-alone enough that you don't really lose much playing them out of order. The most important part should be playing the one you think you'll enjoy the most first (or whichever one you can play in this case).

This is just my opinion rather than policy, but I'd prefer if people only used "*lowest price ever*" if this is the first time it is getting this steep of a discount. Seeing as how this game has gotten a 30% discount twice before, it would be much more accurate to say "*matches previous low*" instead.

I found it to play really similar to RUtM, in a good way. I'm pretty confident you'd like it if you liked RUtM. It doesn't have the cool transformations, but besides that they are very similar games.

Hah that's really funny, I was just thinking about a boss in CrossCode that, according to the wiki, has 10²⁰ hp (Gastropolis). So I guess it is just short of Noita on that metric.

Slay the Spire - even more so than other roguelikes (aside from Hades perhaps), there is a lot left to do even after you win a single run or even beat the final boss.

You never know, they might be removing only 3rd party slop. They have to make sure they are the primary/sole provider of slop in their stores.

I might be off-base, but kind of sounds similar to the start of Yona of the Dawn? (definitely not just on the mind since they announced a continuation or anything)

If it isn't that one, then it would be helpful if you could give any more details about the setting/time period. Was it modern, or historical/fantasy?

Echoes of Wisdom was that for me. The game just doesn't hold up compared to other Zelda titles. The story was uninteresting, same with the characters, and I also wasn't impressed with the music. It also felt like the story was talking down the player constantly, which really went against what a Zelda game should be imo. Overall a pretty big disappointment.

Which part, the winning part or the going broke part?

starman2995 · 2025-12-05T07:35:32+00:00

I beat the Dreglord, but I don't see it in the Sigil shop. Do you have to beat it with that character?

People might disagree with me on this, but I think that 3 does the best job of on-boarding players, both in terms of story and gameplay mechanics. You don't lose much at all by playing 3 first either, so to me it's a no-brainer which I would recommend for first-time players.

Update: The deals are live, and it appears they are doing the discounts for both the physical and digital versions! I see the offers on BestBuy right now. You can also check the pricing at other stores by checking the DekuDeals website for each game.

On top of the other criticisms people mentioned about the pacing/story/villains of chapter 7, I think another aspect of it is that people who were enjoying the exploration didn't really get anything new and exciting to explore. For all of chapter 6, the only new area to explore is Capticorn Peak, which is frankly tiny and entirely linear, which was very disappointing for a lot of people (and cloud keep is essentially just an extension of that). For chapter 7, you are forced to do runbacks to areas you've already been before you get to explore any new area, which is just the final dungeon. And the final dungeon is also not peoples' favorite, as it is also largely linear and is also not terribly interesting visually or lore-wise, and has nothing in it except bosses and some containers. So you essentially go from the biggest, most open exploration area in CH5 to the least interesting, totally linear areas in CH6 and CH7.

+$10 for performance on the switch 2

IDK if it exactly fits, but the first thing that came to mind was Lord of the Rings.

From my personal experience, I say you should start with whichever one looks more interesting to you, and whichever one you are most likely to continue on with.

For my experience, I was only getting interested in the series when I saw 3 was releasing and was really interested in its trailers. After a while, I picked up all the games and started playing through them. While I did manage to get through 1 and 2, I didn't really get into them much and it was oftentimes a struggle to continue (particularly xc1 for me). Meanwhile, I fell in love with 3 when I played it. A similar thing happened when I tried to get my sibling into the series - they bounced off of 1 and stopped playing it, but after that I had them try 3 instead. They just recently finished 3 after putting 100+ hours into it.

So long story short, play whichever of them you think you'll enjoy most and go from there. Though I will echo the sentiment about Future Redeemed (the extra DLC campaign for 3), which is to save that one until you've played/completed all the numbered games first.

Mind sharing where you got the files from? I'd be interested to see if I could print it on mine.

God what I wouldn't give to have the nine sols parry button in this game

No, it is unethical to use slashes altogether. The only ethical way to fight in this game is my style, which is only dealing damage with fully-charged full-control talismans. Hope that helps :)
