This is why in every game I am a part of now, if the GM doesn’t take the initiative to do so, I message the other players to figure out who my character has connections with, why, for how long, etc. I can’t stand to have another “you meet in a tavern”.

If you enjoyed Gris and Neva, you may enjoy Journey. It is a similarly artsy experience and an almost certain inspiration for Gris.

The Horizon series (zero dawn, forbidden west) seems to fit your favourites very well and is also a PS series. The storytelling of the first game is absolurely exquisite imo

If you enjoyed Portal I can’t imagine a world where you don’t enjoy The Talos Principle, they remastered the first game and theres also a sequel. Both jaw droppingly beautiful, engaging stories, lovely puzzles.

I can’t help but recommend Tunic. The combat is solid and simple, puzzles are great, and hoo boy does it keep on giving.

You’d probably get a kick out of Hellblade given the games you enjoy.

If you enjoy DMC you’ll probably love Hi-Fi Rush, super stylish and deep combat system that will reward you similarly to DMC

They think he’s a non-newtonian fluid and the bullets are moving too fast

Yeah I guess some people with no moral backbone will do that

I appreciate the sentiment. I just don’t have the energy to deal with people being mean atm. And for what its worth, I don’t agree with my own take on the use of the word hardcoded anymore, I think you were justified to say it is hardcoded.

Having someone from the MIC with a seat on the steering council is pretty fucking damning on its own ngl

Didn’t they start going anti-woke at some point? I was very excited about nixos when i started trying it and then between the weapons sponsorships and some anti woke stuff i read about at the time, i moved on

Hey. The cool transfems in thigh highs are doing it too.

Let’s see Paul Allen’s website

Thanks for the nudge, gonna start using streetcomplete on my walks :)

I think I just didn’t see much room for expression in the movement system, but I guess that if its a banjo kazooie type game you might only unlock ways to do different things later on

The split config is definitely more geared to casual gaming rather than super precise or timing based input, but I think unless you are really abusing your controller the magnetic joint should hold fine

I didnt “get” yooka laylee. I played like 1 or 2 hours and I was just deeply bored compared to something like a hat in time or odyssey - is it just a slow starter?

Pseudoregalia has the same endless space for skill expression in the movement - the platforming is deeply satisfying and scratched a very similar itch for me!

As others mentioned, A Hat In Time is delightful and has similar room for skill expression

Celeste is 2d but the single best platforming game I have ever played. Its movement system is so, so satisfying and deep

You might enjoy Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart - its a ton of fun, but a slight sideways shift in genre

I also found Cavern of Dreams pretty delightful as a cute 3d mascot platformer

I would be failing you if I didn’t mention A Short Hike - it’s short, as its name suggests, but it is an absolute blast

More options. It can be quite comfortable to use split controllers wirh your arms in a relaxed position.

In case anyone is tempted, don’t run this

What about his lingerie
