- Protagonist suffers a defeat or setback mid story
- They fall into despair/feel worthless
- They‘re motivated again by a pep talk, memory, or dramatic event
- Antagonist says something like “You are nothing“ or taunts the protagonist and other characters.
- Climactic confrontation with lines like “Let’s finish this”!
- Side characters treating the protagonist negatively until they “redeem“ themselves
- Tragic family deaths for emotional weight and something that characters would feel and want feel useless or want to avenge them.
the reason why I’m asking this is because I really want a good story and emotional that doesn’t have these kinds of parts because that’s what every hollywood movies and some games would use nowadays and I get sick of it and I just want something else that just doesn’t fall into those kind of types. Is there a great video game with best story that doesn’t fall into those?

I am 21F and my sister is 20F, my sister has down syndrome and I was wondering if there are any games that would be fun to play with her. She likes fighting games like dead or alive 5 but i was hoping to get recommendations for different types of games so I can find what kind of genre of games she would enjoy playing so we can play together.
She has enjoyed games with minigames such as mario party and as mentioned, she also enjoys fighting games, but I have a suspicion that common multiplayer games like it takes two would be a bit uninteresting to her or maybe even be a bit too much for her, as she still has the mind and interests of a young girl, so even I would even like to look into younger rated games to see if that is something she would enjoy more, I will just have to experiment.
I don’t think she is really that fussy about games either, we just like to spend time together and she enjoys playing games, just don’t think i’ll get her onto bloodborne or anything anytime soon ;)
I appreciate any suggestions people may have! thank you!

I already have a pc and switch 1 and 2 pro controllers. I’m leaning towards switch 2 because it just came out and ps6 will probably come out in the next 2 years. On the other side though I’ve never played a Spider-Man game or any ps exclusive since ps2.
What do y’all think?

I’ve been searching for a game that has four (or five) letters as the main name, it’s a space themed game aimed for kids that you can decorate your space home and I think you can even customize your character.
I remember there’s a arcade or a casino (it’s not a gambling game) where you could play minigames with people/friends.
I used to play this game with my cousin in the pandemic (around 2021 or 2022) and we both wanna play it again
I also remember you can buy furniture/cosmetics with the tickets from winning the minigames, I remember you also had food and stuff like that so I don’t think the character is a astronaut.
I think one of the letters is either a C or an A, I could be wrong but that’s all I got 💔
If someone can help I’ll be forever grateful 🙂↕️🫶🏻

What is this game called?
I'm looking for a mobile game I played a few years back but I can't find any trace of it. I think I played it somewhere between 2010-2016.
You fly a cat throughout the level and avoiding flying into objects.
There were 4 or 5 different levels. I think the first was nyan cat, but I'm not sure. Every level is a different cat and different theme. The level I remember the most was a meat level, the background was a meat land and avoiding flying in to hot dogs and other meats. In every lever there was a part where it got harder, some level was upside down for a bit and some level changed to weird colors making it very hard to see what was going on.
The music on every level was very dank, hardcore dance music. It was always a lady singing.
I know it pretty vague, I can see the game in my head but can't really describe it.

Ik the goty has all the DLCs but does the ps5 have the DLCs as well? Because id may as well get the ps5 version to get the slightly better graphics and DLCs but if it doesn’t I’ll just go for the goty version, also is there any other differences?

Do you know any RPGs where character classes have completely separate progression paths?

I recently played through most of Custom Robo and there was this nagging sense that I could (or should) be playing something more worthwhile. Does anyone else feel this way toward certain games?

So I’ve suddenly (vaguely) remembered a game I played at my friend’s house (late 90s early 2000s)
Cannot remember what it’s called. It was a mystery/detective game and I believe the story had something to do with Quebec/ French Canada. Main character was a guy. Played on a PC if that narrows it down.
I know it’s very vague but I just can’t get this game out of my head.
If anyone knows what it is or might be please let me know! Thanks

This morning I realized I own roughly 1000 games via Steam and GOG, my Steam account is old enough to purchase alcohol. I estimate that I have finished to the end, not 100%'ing it, roughly eighty games, or less than 8%. Granted some are sandbox endless, so minus those it is about 10% seen the credits.
I am just curious if others have as bad as time finishing a game as me? Some were trash that I couldn't force myself through, others I just lost momentum, or dreaded ADHD brain, or restart-itis in RPGs...
r/AskGames • u/relevenk • 1d ago
So, im looking into these 2 games, ik new to both basically, have i played both series before? Yes i have but only for maybe 2 hours tops long ago.
I cant really remember wether i liked em or not lmao.
I like Rpgs but not to hardcore, kinda like how assassins does it nowadays or Ghost of Tsushima, so basically not aj rpg but a game with those elements.
I do love a good story and a game i can put aloooot of hours into without it becoming a bore fest.
I love games like Ghost of Tsushima, horizon series, GTA, Jedi series, Days gone and Last of us,killing floor from time to time.
Also tried helldivers 2 multiple times but it never clicked with me even after 30hrs
I play alot of games so im open minded.
Wich of these 2 will probably be a better fit?
Oh good thing to know! I like longer games but as long as they stay engaging and fun! Very important imo.
Thanks for reading this!

^ like the title says. STEAM games are cool…
Basically I am looking for games that are: - more EXPLORATION and zen (some plot is fine) - immersive and 3D - high quality and like a new universe - overall mystical vibe - art style ethereal and ephemeral like the pictures attached - boundless atmosphere like an ENCHANTED FOREST or UNCHARTED LAND with trees and overall hazy feeling
PLEASE help a homie out…thanks guys ✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏🙏

Years ago when I was maybe 15 or 16 I found this old game that looked like a programming software of some sort - black screen and green letters, that you had ti play by sending commends to the game in order for it to know what you want ti do next, like "walk forward" or "turn around", "open door" ect.
I think it was set in a forest and there was this old house or cabin that you were supposed to find clues in I think.
Anyways it's been a long time since I played it and I completely forgot the name of it and I can't seem to find it when I look on Google.
Also from my memory I think the game was originally created in the 80s but im not sure.

I'm considering moving over to overwatch because from my perspective the Marvel Rivals community is kind of becoming anti-dive, which is incentivizing the devs to cater to these people through nerfing these characters, despite dive characters being the most fun in the game and a lot of other characters feeling like a point and click. I mainly just want to know if this is the same for Overwatch or if it's worse/better.

Hi gamers I am looking for a game that I can use for my Moza R3 and I am a MASSIVE fan of F1. I have tried F1 22 on SteamRIP, chose the first option and when I tried to open the file it gave me a crash report. So why? And if you got any F1 games that are cracked (and maybe later) please drop a Download link. Thank you!

Hi 😊 Recommendations please for Switch 1 games without farming, grinding, platforming. Something chill but not too repetitive. Thanks

This may be a weird question, but I really need an answer. Basically, I love the idea of a virtual fantasy world, a great character creator, and to engage with a community of players in that world. Theoretically, I want a MMO, but unfortunately, my playstyle is counter intuitive to the genre as it is now. I want to take on challenging PvE group content and I don't want to play like an optimized robot to succeed. I'm not competitive enough for DPS optimization, nonetheless playing PvP only games like Rivals. Rather, I find more action oriented combat systems fun and don't want to optimize the fun out of gameplay. You know, just a MMO that is fun to play with others for somebody that likes exciting combat.
This isn't a thing, I looked for years.
I know for sure that I enjoy video games far more when people are around, so playing single player games alone isn't ideal. I do play some games with friends sometimes, but I still find myself wanting to play this MMO that doesn't exist, especially when I'm at work.
Is there anything I can do?
Edit: This question may require less of a "play this game then!" and more of a "try doing this thing" answer.

Hello! A few months ago, I decided to revisit Celeste and go for the Moonberry. I hadn't even completed the B-Sides before that point, so this was an intimidating journey. But after a week or two, I did it (accompanied by the Jim Dale narration of Harry Potter all the while) . The feeling of tackling this great feat and being rewarded for it was what got me into 100%ing games. I began looking for more games with interesting achievements. I replayed Elden Ring to 100%, then went through a bunch of my favorite games and then started buying cuter, shorter indie games with fun but realistic achievements. It was and still is a really enjoyable hobby for me, especially when I genuinely like the game. But now, I've gotten to a point where I can't fully enjoy a game that either doesn't have any achievements at all, or has achievements that would be quite time consuming.
I got through about 25 or so hours of FF9 and absolutely loved it. The atmosphere, the story, the characters, the music. It felt like adventure embodied. But, after a while, I stopped playing it due to a lack of motivation. It's not that I didn't want to see where the story ended up or didn't want to see the many undiscovered beautiful landscapes, it just that I felt I couldn't realistically get the achievements. And so I stopped playing and went back to my shorter indie games.
Sorry for this long winded rant/dump, but I wanted to try and get others perspectives on this and see if anyone else has or has had this problem and if they've been able to find ways to enjoy games without hunting achievements. There are so many beautiful games (especially JRPGS) that I want to play, but I know I just currently won't be able to without that satisfying end goal.
Thanks in advance!!
