Make him play Digital Devil Saga if he wants a game
My wife and I recently started our first playthrough. We're mostly interested in the story and style and I don't want to deal with any bullshit difficulty spikes, so we set it to Safe Mode and are absolutely here for the 120-hour push-button anime experience. So far, it rules.
"120 hour anime series" is fair, but "occasionally click a button" is not. If P5 qualifies for that, then every turn-based JRPG ever does.
I was gonna say, that sounds like the first 50 hours or so of FFXIII
looks at all the games I played for over 300 hours
Oh no.
"Wait, it's all visual novels?"
Game is okay I guess.
I don't have time for games that long
plays Factorio for the 274th hour
274? In Germany, we call that ausbaufähig. The factory must grow.
Is that a single save, or your total playtime?
A friend of mine tried to convince me to get Factorio a couple days ago. Couldn't help but feel like he was a junky trying to get me to try just a little bit of heroin.
It's more like crack or meth. You start a gamenin the early evening and suddenly it dawn's outside. I hate myself for loving a game which basically simulates the job of "process optimization"
I always describe it as a puzzle game where all the puzzles are designed by an idiot and that idiot is you.
The spaghetti must grow
As a chef, the spaghetti can fuck off. I want to build lasagna.
wait until you find out about Shapez 2
Hey if your actual job is process optimization, you get to enjoy it twice as much 🥲
I started playing Satisfactory with a friend a couple weeks ago.
I realized yesterday that it's basically my job if it was fun.
I’ve never played factorio, but I am an industrial engineer and my builds in the minecraft mod create make my wife sad
Do not even come close to Factorio or it will be your Ex Wife. Trust me Bro!
Satisfactory, however, will be 100% totally safe and good for that marriage. Trust me bro!
Dyson Sphere Project is exactly what that marriage needs! There's a multiplayer mod so the wife can show him good optimization.
Whatever you do, don't install clockwork and valkerien skies. You maybe become but a memory to your wife
Persona 5 is the only game in my life I ever played and made my eyes hirt, it just felt nauseating
God I wish I could play this game again with a fresh slate and no knowledge of anything again. Story, style, soundtrack, and gameplay all in an endearing package.
I've never played it
Me neither but Winter is coming and my pile of shame recently got Space Marine 2 added ....
But one day I will be old and retired. I will only die when I played them all!
Every time it goes on sale, I think about picking it up, but then I remember...
It takes me long enough to finish 10-hour games I already own...
142h completionist : LOL
I refuse to play games that I can’t quit within 2 minutes of starting it. Persona series is one of those that I refuse to play. My time is way to valuable to commit an hour or more to 1 activity.
That's not valuing your time, friendo. That's undiagnosed ADD.
You're joking, right ?
So you won't watch an hr+ movie?
No i refuse to watch movies. The last movie I’ve seen was Lion King 1/2
So no games with words at all I would assume? Shit even a round of Tetris is longer than 2 minutes.
I think you'll miss out on a lot of great games thinking that way! Sometimes needing to commit time into a game is where a lot of the value comes from in its experience, and persona is one of those series.
So do you just play on Xbox where you can jump between titles and have it save your game state?
Yes actually. It’s my favorite part about Xbox.
I still haven't played so many games because of opening cinematics and overly long and boring tutorials for this reason. It sucks because I can get super into a game if I just get over that. Like Baldur's Gate 3 was a chore to get into, but I knew I would absolutely love it and now I think it's probably the best game ever.
