How do you cope when you finish your favorite game again?
Kane99 replied to StaceyPowers's topic in Gaming Forum
One other way to cope with finishing a game you love, is to replay it. Either play it again right away, or wait a few years and revisit it. That's usually what I do with games I really love. I've replayed Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario World a few times over. And I always come back to them years later to revisit them. -
It has been so long since I played Apex Legends. How many new characters have been added since the game came out? I know that they released a bunch of characters, so I've lost track of who is who in this game. I remember when I did play, I used that one woman with like ninja abilities. I think that was what her abilities were. I haven't played since the game came out, so I can't say for sure who she was lol.

I watch a lot of YouTube. I even sometimes watch lets plays because I don't have plans to play that game. And yeah, i have found myself watching YouTube for hours. Maybe it too is taking time away from gaming. But I also like to watch movies and tv when not gaming, so that's another thing.

Best year for me, would probably be 2010. I'm pretty sure that's the year RDR1 and Skyrim came out. Or maybe Skyrim came out in 09, but either way, I remember those games being huge hits that year. There just seemed to be a big influx of great games released around that time. Of course I know some will list years earlier, but I think 2010 was it for me.

Strangest I can think of off the top of my head, would probably be Goat Simulator. Of course, there are games like powerwash sim out there who give that game a run for its money, but I think Goat sim is the most weird I can think of. Though I know GTA and Saints Row in the past were pretty wacky as well.

That's a good question. Honestly not sure. I know Dark Souls gameplay meshes well with the theme and story. It's meant to be crazy tough, all the while telling a deep story that you can get through playing the game. I have never beaten a DS game before, and honestly I don't think I ever will. But I can respect what this franchise has done over the years. The gameplay meshes well with the story and themes, because that's what it is part of. If that makes sense.

Twitch is by far the better streaming platform between the two. YouTube is eh, it's not great. Also, streaming on YouTube is more of a recent thing. YouTube didn't have streaming until, maybe the last 5 years or so. I may be off, but Twitch was doing streaming before YouTube if I'm not mistaken.

What Unreleased Game Are You Most Excited About?
Kane99 replied to StaceyPowers's topic in Gaming Forum
There hasn't been much as of late that really got me interested. I'm hoping there is a GTA 6 announcement soon, because I am really excited to see what direction they go with the next GTA. And I feel like a reveal for that game is coming very soon. Nothing else is really getting me as excited. But, we'll see. I'm sure there are some games I forgot about. -
I would say the original Xbox controller. And maybe even the N64 controller for a while. But for me, I always got used to the weird controllers. The ones I absolutely hated the most though, were the madcatz controllers. Each one I ever bought either didn't work right, or broke after a while of use. Never understood why people even bothered with that brand.
-
Have any new trailers come out that really sold you? Like, was there a trailer for a newer game that just blew you away with how cool or unique it looked? For me, nothing has really jumped out at me. I have some interest in some games, but I'm not that hyped for what is coming out soon.
-
I've played some mobile games on my phone in the past, but these days I usually stay away from them. For one, I don't usually have time to bother with them, and secondly, I never find interest in them to stay with them for long. I'll play some, but most of the time I have no interest in mobile games, because most of them are a chore to play with the idea that you need to pay to really go anywhere.

I have never owned a Dreamcast, but I have always wanted to add one to my collection. I know there's a lot of great games on this platform, and I wish more people supported it at release, because who knows what Sega could have done if it was a success. If I ever find one at a thrift store for a good price, I may pick one up.

Games that are less than the sum of it's parts?
Kane99 replied to NightmareFarm's topic in Gaming Forum
I think I'd say the newer COD games, mainly because they've become much of the same each year. The thing is, each COD game is competent and has the gameplay to keep it going, but the fact that these studios don't do much of anything new, makes the whole experience stale and mundane. It always has decent multiplayer, but lacks in single player for the majority of the series, at least the recent ones. -
I didn't get much time with the 3DS, as I never owned one. I remember played one of the Mario 3D games on it, and had a blast with it. But there was a few others games I played that were mostly forgettable. I wouldn't mind getting a 3DS one of these days to finally revisit it and its big catalog of games.
-
It kinda reminds me of the game called The Procession to Calvary. It's different graphically, but it's a point and click adventure much like what this looks like. This one though is much more M rated.
-
Oh wow I am not sure. I know I've gamed all through the night before, but I don't recall playing for days on end. I usually take a break by going to bed and re-playing the next day. I've pulled my share of all nighters, but nothing to the point of playing for days.
-
Depends really. With my work friends I play most nights, or just hang out with them on Discord. My friends from high school and close by, don't really game with me much anymore. Than again I don't make it a habit to reachout anymore to game.
-
I think most mobile games drain the battery down a bit. I haven't played much mobile games as of late, as I just never see the point. Most mobile games on the phone aren't really my thing. I used to get into some, but as of late, nothing looks interesting to me.

What (real) cities would be coolest settings for open world games?
Kane99 replied to StaceyPowers's topic in Gaming Forum
Honestly, anyplace in the world would be nice. Personally I'd like my hometown to be featured. All I'd say is somewhere in Michigan. Maybe near the great lakes. Of course places like Italy, Japan, and New Zealand would be nice, but I feel like Japan is covered for the most part. -
Unreal Engine 5 going to be the one to make realistic graphics?
Kane99 replied to Kane99's topic in Gaming Forum
Seems like everything is using unreal 5 these days. And rightfully so, it's becoming the talk of the town haha. Seriously though, I can only imagine what Unreal Engine 6 is going to be like. That's when realism is going to be pretty close I think. We're already getting there. -
I'd say I've been burnt out on video games a lot in the past. Not to say it has kept me from gaming, but it's caused me to game less and less these days. I mostly play fortnite with a few other games in the mix. It's not like it used to be, where I'd be playing almost daily.
-
I actually have. Been playing with my nephew and a friend as of late. Don't mess with Vader, he's a beast. Yeah it's been a while for sure. Happy to be back. 🙂 And yeah, I oftentimes forget to even play. There are nights where I want to play, and then I just change my mind and watch a movie or something.
-
Honestly, only games I get stressed out to, are ones with really crap controls and ones where it's overly complicated. Oh and games where there are menus upon menus. Navigation can be a thing that stresses me out in game, because if I can't figure out what menu to go to, then it can be annoying learning that new system. It's why I never got into The Witcher, there was just too much going on.

Are certain games better in online play, or story mode?
Kane99 replied to The Blackangel's topic in Gaming Forum
I think it depends on the game. Games like COD survive because of their multiplayer. Most people don't even bother with the single player modes. But there are games where I don't have any interest in the online. I prefer RDR2 main story to the online. Same with GTA, because the online modes become repetitive and boring after a while. -
What are some older games that still don’t feel dated to you?
Kane99 replied to StaceyPowers's topic in Gaming Forum
I'd say a lot of the retro games from the 8bi/16 bit era. Games from back then often still look pretty good today, because it didn't take much to make these kinds of graphics. That's why we see so many new games made in the 8bit/16 bit style. Because it works and still looks good today. Yeah some games from back then looked horrible, but I'd say the majority of games back on the NES, SNES, Genesis, etc looked good. It wasn't until 3D graphics that games started to age poorly.
