I’m curious, if you consider them average, what game has good or great side quests ?

Probably average wasn't the right word, as I don't really think sidequests are generally good storywise in games. I wanted to say "mediocre" but thought that sounded negative. I meant that I didn't find anything special in them, neither bad nor good.

But for examples of games with sidequests I think are good (storywise), I can think of only The Witcher 1 and 2 and Yakuza 0 (all of which I haven't played in a while so I might only remember the good parts).

I played it both at launch and a year ago with the DLC. It's alright - 6/10, but pre patches like 4/10.

The gameplay is fun because of how customizable your build is now, after the skill system was completely reworked.

The story is shallow, the characters forgettable and the open world really doesn't fit the urgency the story is supposed to have and ruins the pacing. The DLC is much better, but there's some parts where I don't really like how V is written, especially at the start, since it forces a specific personality I don't think fits them.

I remember the sidequests being generally entertaining, but I wouldn't call any of them special, just kinda average.

It feels a lot like a Far Cry game, but with much better build customization.

I think I'm close to finishing Metaphor. I have a few sidequests left before what I think is going to be the final dungeon/sequence. It's been great, and I only have very small complaints about things that don't really matter.

Its in my wishlist! I'm waiting for it to release tho, I don't really like playing early access games and risk getting tired of them before release.

That's a shame if it's true. I found the original uncomfortable and painful to hold, I was hoping for something more like the Steam Deck.

Looking at reviews, it seems like a common criticism of the second game is that it's mostly a repeat of the first with a few additions, but also without fixing any of its issues.

To people who have played both: is it worth playing the second one? I already have the first, as it was included in a bundle, but never played it.

  • Thanks everyone for answering! I'll be playing DD first then.

As someone who plays fighting games only for the multiplayer: I hate having to unlock the characters, as I'd be either forced to play a character I'm not interested in or a mode I don't care about.

I learned a bit of FORTH because an old Minecraft mod (Redpower 2) had a computer that could run it.

FFXV, while flawed, is a good game and it's the only one that feels like an actual journey.

Lies of P is better than From's souls games.

Is it the Nintendo Switch OS which is needlessly bloated? It does nothing, how can it be heavier than an actual Linux Distribution?

AFAIK the OS is based on a microkernel and the modules are rather small, so there's probably a lot of overhead for IPC. Also I guess the power management is quite aggressive to increase battery life and lower heat.

That's why I almost always hide helmets.

I've used it at work since it often is the only installed browser and it feels like it's already infected by toolbars and other malware out of the box.

The new tab page reminds me of the weird ads you see at the bottom of tabloid websites.

I always interpreted as X because it looks like a pair of scissors, C for copy and V just because it's close to the others.

Hi, I'm looking for a thin phone cover for my Nord 2. Most of the ones I've tried are bulky and sometimes change the shape of the phone in uncomfortable ways, but I still wanna use a cover to protect the phone, especially from falls.

Does anyone have tips on what I should try?

Thanks
