What’s the one game you guys are def buying?

[–] Landmammals@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I'm finally going to buy Titanfall 2

[–] VerseAndVermin@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago (3 children)

Do you know if the DLC is needed to find matches? Do people even use them? Or is it all cosmetic? I too am thinking to come aboard.

The multiplayer is full of ultra skilled people who have played for years, so a steep curve. Best FPS campaign ever though, so I recommend it for that.

I have found that some games like this, sometimes I do really well if only because there is such an established way to do things well that my flailing about catches people off guard. Sometimes not following meta is a shock to expectations. I'll win by sheer incompetence.

All dlcs are cosmetics, some give alternative models to the titans, so they don't give any advantage, also you dont need any of them.

If you join, good luck to you Pilot, may you soar high in your journey (be careful about Viper tho)

[–] Landmammals@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

No idea, but I heard great things about the campaign

[–] b_crussin@programming.dev 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

One of the best campaigns I’ve played in a while, if a little short

[–] Landmammals@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Sounds like I'll get my $5 worth

[–] dan1101@lemm.ee 9 points 11 months ago (3 children)

I think Grim Dawn. Seems like it would be a nice medium between a spastic first person shooter and the slower pace of Divinity Original Sin.

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago

It's great. And it's got a new expansion coming up in the new year. So now is the perfect time to grab it.

[–] rolofox@lemmy.zip 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I've also been considering grim dawn for a while now. Last game I played like that was titan quest way back then.

[–] CileTheSane@lemmy.ca 1 points 11 months ago

Personally I prefer Last Epoch. Each ability you equip has its own upgrade tree that lets you customize how it behaves.

[–] MellowSnow@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Grim Dawn is so good. If you have any interest, just go for it. I don't even play many games like that, and I've put tonsss of hours into it now. Super underrated soundtrack too, imo.

I ran across The Longing just yesterday. Looks unusual, fun, and chill. Seems like a good one to mess with over the holidays.
