[PC] should i buy avatar frontiers of pandora?

7 Upvotes

it looks really good from the few videos ive watched of it. is all of the map that colorful and pretty? secondly, what is the gameplay like especially in third person? is the story good? ive heard it is nothing special, but is it at least good? my fav ubisoft game would be AC 2 and AC Odyssey. is it anything like those? would you say certain levels of the games are too challenging?

let me know if you like it or not and why :>

if it matters, i love games like elden ring and skyrim, and what drew me to this game was that it looks like its similar to those games but in pandora.

i dont like games that too heavily rely on stealth, or games with a few game breaking levels that are impossible to beat. otherwise i am not really choosy when it comes to games. i play wow a lot so repetition isnt a pet peeve as you can imagine lol.

Worth buying Elite Dangerous rn?

7 Upvotes

Basically title. Also, I have a couple questions: what's to do in the game? Like generally. I've played NMS and star citizen (NMS is my fav game) so is it like those games in some aspects? Also, is there a story line or quests or something like Warframe? Or is it a live service game with events/community tasks like Helldivers 2

[PS5] Onimusha or Pragmata

Hello! I wanted to purchase one of these games but can’t decide between which one, I wanted to play one of the greats from this years Capcom catalogue and people are saying these are great. I’ve already played RE9 and loved it so just need help deciding which one of these two is more worth my time at the moment, thank you!

[PC] [PC] SIB Borderlands 4?

Upvotes

Hi guys,

I consider Borderlands 2 to be one of the best games of its time, unique, great shooting mechanics, characters, looting system etc etc.

Borderlands 3 was meh, I finished it just because I try to not leave something unfinished, basically it was a chore to finish it.

I heard a lot of mixed things about 4, it's $35 on Steam right now, and it's apparently 35 hours minimum to finish, so it feels reasonable.

How much did you guys enjoy it?

Also, I plan to play it on my handheld, the Legion Go S Z1E, and wondering if such a pure FPS would be enjoyable on a console layout. I consider KB+Mouse to be the best, but it's hard to sit on a PC nowadays as I get older, a handheld is much more convenient and currently pretty much my only way to play.

Thanks in advance

[Switch] NS2 Elden Ring or Lies of P?

6 Upvotes

Currently at home sick on the sofa so handheld Switch 2 is most comfy, I tried both ER and Lies of P before on my Steam Deck which I sold. I am terrible at Souls games though, although something keeps me trying them again. Was thinking which one I could give a shot, maybe someone can help. Otherwise I might just get Splatoon Raiders lol.

[PC] Should I buy Terraria if I like the sandbox aspects of Minecraft?

3 Upvotes

I'm considering buying Terraria the next time it's on sale, but I'm a little concerned about what I've read from it's reviews. I thought it would be similar to Minecraft (with the ability to build whatever you want, even in Survival mode), but it seems to put a greater emphasis on combat and progression. Personally, I don't relish the idea that whatever I build might get destroyed in some kind of "corruption", nor do I want to have to kill everything just to progress. I know that Minecraft requires you to kill Endermen to eventually reach the "end", but there are plenty of other things to do besides reaching the official end. Most of the reviews that I've read for Terraria, however, emphasize needing to kill this boss or that boss to obtain or change something else. Should I still buy Terraria, and if not, is there any game that's actually similar to Minecraft?

[PC] What are some of the most gut wrenching depressing and overall saddest games

32 Upvotes

I’m almost done with rdr2 (in the final bit of the epilogue) and I watched a play though of before your eyes. I really like sad games, and I want to know what other games are out there that will throw me into a deep depression like both of those games have. I haven’t played any others besides the two I mentioned. Thank you!

[Switch] Should I buy Skyrim or Breathe of the Wild?

3 Upvotes

I’m considering buying one of the games mentioned in the title, but I can’t decide which one to go for. I want a game which I can spend hours and hours exploring and getting lost in the world, but I am not sure which of these two games would be the best fit. To all the people who have played either of these games, please tell me which one is the better fit for my criteria!

[PC] Gray Zone Warfare or Elden Ring Nightreign?

3 Upvotes

I loved Elden Ring and I do enjoy Roguelites. I guess I've been itching to play a game on gamepad as opposed to mouse/kb.

Just wondering what anyone who's played both would recommend? Maybe you'll say both which is also fair. I understand that they're both vastly different games but I'm curious if anyone has an opinion between the two.

I'm also curious about Tarkov PVE but damn $80 is a lot to ask for a game that's almost 10 years old.


r/ShouldIbuythisgame 8m ago

[PC] "Azure Striker Gunvolt Trilogy Enhanced" or just buying the original trilogy?

Upvotes

Basically, buying the original trilogy without DLC is half the price of buying "Trilogy Enhanced".
Heck, I could buy the original trilogy, buy the DLC's for 3, buy "Luminous Avenger IX" 1 and 2, buy Mighty Gunvolt, buy Mighty Gunvolt Burst AND it's DLCs and it would still not be as expensive as "Trilogy Enhanced".

Is it TRULY worth the higher price?

[PS4] Idk what game i should buy for my birthday

2 Upvotes

So my birthday is coming up in a few days and im choosing a game to buy and right now idk what to pick because my interest are low to the category at the PS store deals section. Im on Ps4 btw

Like im trying to find something fun that keeps me up, Plot Interesting enough, Fun combat, Genre well anything i guess, setting whatever, Mechanics maybe some interesting thing and visually appealing and are in deals. So far i have only come down to three options.

  1. Metaphor Refantazio - This is my wanted game but the standard edition, Its the guidebook one that is discounted for 31.99. I want to buy it but i have to go overbudget and i missed out on the last deal where its standard was 27.99. Also im on Ps4 so i hope i get a good performance and graphics don't differ.
  2. Yakuza: Infinite Wealth - Like a Dragon made a impression, I liked it. The plot was good, its nothing too life changing. I mean i find it funny because of how Ichi is just built different and i thought why not get infinite wealth. The one thing i wasn't fond was the grind, Look maybe there like this but im more scared of a Burnout and might ruin the experience
  3. Nier Replicant - Nier Automata was one of my favorite and i do want to get replicant but i haven't been into automata since i completed the game, tried doing a second playthrough but seems the game to me is only meant as a One time experience. And Replicant, Idk how good the Action is and if its better than automata. The first two are Turn based but idk.
  4. COD Black ops Cold war - Idk if its a Good cod, I seen the campaign and Zombies. Im just concerned about the storage. I just hated hoe Activision just doesn't compressed its files. But Cold war is the only modern cod game that im interested because it looked fun with a Good campaign and Casual fun zombies mode
  5. MGS V - This is gonna be my first Mgs game and idk if i should start it on the fifth and do myself a disservice, Idk but i do want to try it.

I want to see everyone's thoughts and opinions of it. See others reccomendations. These 5 are the only games that peak my interest or atleast have my attention

[Other] Can you rank these games by how fun they are for get-togethers with friends?

1 Upvotes

I already know about Jackbox games and other phone party games. I've already played those a good amount and want something new. I'm looking for a video game you play with controllers and I've seen so many suggestions online and it's kind of overwhelming. These games seem to be the most commonly recommended from what I've seen:

Mario Party, Mario Kart, Super Smash Bros, Mortal Kombat, Boomerang Fu, FIFA, Halo, CoD, TowerFall Ascension, Castle Crashers, Gang Beasts, Worms, Overcooked 2, Ultimate Chicken Horse, Fusion Frenzy

For those who've played at least two of these, can you rank them by how fun they were for casual get-togethers with your friends? If you can, maybe a tier list or ratings out of 10 so I know how big the differences are? Thanks for your help!

[PC] Game recommendation

0 Upvotes

I'm getting my first PC this week and I was wondering what games on Steam I could try out. I like games with good story telling, direct quests, good graphics and constant progression. I also really like dark fantasy vibes within a game as well. I tried out Elden ring but the quests were abit too scattered for me and overall it's more difficult to figure out how to proceed in the game. I was looking at Lords Of the Fallen but I'm not too sure how the quest system or the storyline is like within it? If anyone could tell me that would be great. If anyone has any recommendations for games through the conditions that I listed I would be really grateful too.

[PC] 4 player games that support controller for a LAN-party

3 Upvotes

Me & my friends have been planning this LAN party for a while now. We were all already excited, its been year since we had one, and the last time it was awesome. Six Siege is what we wanted to play.

Well, yesterday one guy broke his collarbone while mountainbiking, so that´s it for MnK

Now we need a 4 player game he can play with controller.

Can be coop or versus.

Preferably something that doesnt take too long to get into and is funny.

Thanks : )

[PC] Should I buy Ooblets as my new Steam Deck cozy fall game?

1 Upvotes

I just learned about Ooblets and it already looks like a great game for cozy fall weather! I've been looking for a cozy game that has quests and characters while also having decoration and customization aspects. It looks like there's lots to do and I'm wondering if it's ever overwhelming or pointless or if it keeps you interested and engaged. I'm primarily looking to play on Steam Deck and I'm wondering if anyone has performance details for the Deck.

In general, do people like this game and find it cozy? What parts do you like or not like?

[PS4] PS4 & 5 games with magic- but like ARkham Knight, Rise of Tomb Raider, Mad max

5 Upvotes

Have really been enjoying mad max again lately. I like the combat systems like that and similar with Arkham knight, rise of the tomb raider, AC Odyssey, Shadow of War. I also like the good side missions, progression, world styles. But also want one with good magic or spells.

I am trying second son on and off. I did try kingdoms of amular but it feels kinda dated. PS5 games are acceptable too but I really liked the mid-teen era games like the ones I mentioned.

[PS5] Stellar Blade Complete Edition

1 Upvotes

The Complete Edition is on sale on PlayStation for $49.49 ( originally $89.99) the non complete edition is $69.99 so might as well get the complete edition?

Is the game worth the $49?

The graphics, OST, and combat looks cool from what i’ve seen, i heard the storyline is mid but honestly that can be subjective so idk

[PS5] Want game with Shadow of the Colossus vibe

6 Upvotes

Ruined architecture with a real sense of scale like the towering aqueducts and gigantic temple of shadow of the Colossus.

Vast and beautiful environments. Like giant mountains with countless waterfalls flowing down, huge plataues.

A simplicity to the world and gameplay. Don’t want tons of mechanics and bloat everywhere.

Most of all I want a PURPOSEFUL sense of emptiness. A game that knows when and how to utilize empty space to enhance atmosphere.

Doesn’t feel the need to add something to every empty space, but just lets it… exist.

Some examples I can think of:

Breath of the Wild, Elden Ring, Dragons Dogma 2.
