To me, Chained Echoes is a bunch of good parts that come together to make a great game. Nothing is perfect, but I never felt like any one part let me down (although I could probably be convinced that the gem system, or whatever it was, is very weak).
I'm actually the opposite of you where I had to bump the difficulty up, then the combat felt engaging to me and I really enjoyed it.
The headline is actually misrepresenting her point. She said "We all need a bit of self-care, but you can't meditate your way or exfoliate your way out of this crisis."
She's not saying self-care doesn't help, just that there are structural problems that need to be fixed to ease some people's feelings of anxiety and uncertainty.
Yup, they were specifically referring to the PC edition, which makes a lot more sense.
I did the exact same thing. Started Storm and went Bear. I just liked smashing things.
Maybe I misunderstood your point, but I think the original comment was saying they like buying physical, transferable copies of games (ie. disks) because of the points they mentioned. The Starfield physical copy is pointless because you're not getting a transferable copy, you'll just get a single use code (which is the same as buying digital). The only reason people would want the Starfield physical copy is to have an item on their shelf.
Depends where you live, but you could check out your local Asian market. They usually have kitchen stuff
Thanks for doing this! Participation is so important right now as Lemmy gets started.
I want to give a shout-out to https://lemmy.ml/c/xbox. Always need more people to talk Xbox!
Ya, Gamepass has been somewhat weak recently IMO. They're probably getting ready for an influx of subs for Starfield. Make a few extra bucks.
Harvest Moon was my jam back in the day. Stardew is my farming sim fix now, but I might give SoS a try.
Never heard of Bramble, but it has positive reviews on Steam, so I'll probably give it a go. Looks kind of like Limbo.
Still on my list to play it.
Anyone else play it have an opinion? Pros and cons?
I'm excited because of Starfield. It was still an enjoyable game to me.
If they can keep the combat and stories, but condense the world and add that sense of exploration from their older games, I would be happy.
