Discussion / Question What game is this for you?

Post image

Honestly for me it's Life is Strange: True Colors. Love that game to death, an incredible story and soundtrack, but it seems like a story that just doesn't vibe well with a lot of people. Listen to the soundtrack though, absolutely increible.

No mans sky. Fucking 10/10 game. But if you are ANYTHING like 90% of us, the moment youre given the freedom, the main quest is suddenly 75 star systems away and you didnt build a base nearby.

This. I love the game so, so much. But some of its "charm" comes from bugginess and frustration. Not for everyone.

Yep. Day one player of NMS, loved it immediately even when it was very far from the gem it is now. I've recommended it to 2 people, they both hated it! I don't recommend it anymore 🤣

You can always restart a quest using nearby structures.

Literally the only game worth playing on VR that isn't a VR game. It completely makes playing without it stupid and lame

I'd say subnautica is another one.

sounds fucking terrifying.

Its clunky and immersion breaking. I've never been able to get it to work

To be fair, the ability to restart missions with nearby structures makes that not as big of a deal anymore lol

I love it but I understand how others wouldn’t.

There’s a main quest? I just played until I had the best ships and multi tool and haven’t touched it since lol

And they won't let us give them more money!!! But I won't suggest it to most of my friends, just a couple. Most people won't flow with it.

I played the game for the first on PC and... Well, disliked it. It took me half an hour to craft everything for the ship, which was a tad too much

But then I tried the game in VR and it just blew my mind. Same game, but suddenly it became interesting to explore different holes and build bases

And flying in vr is a 10/10

I love the game for the exploration and freedom but have a hard time getting into the story. I’ll play it for like a week here and there then put it down

I recently got it but only got to like 10 hours on it before I got distracted with CP2077. I'll start over again when I'm finally done with that game

Nothing is making you do the main quest. On my first save. I spent ages ignoring the main quest and just exploring.

Haven't played in a few months bc i stranded myself on an ice planet with no fuel to get home.... 10/10 game still, no joke

You can reset a quest? It even prompts it if it's more than 10 jumps away

u/Possible-Tea-7705 Sep 11 '26

You used to not be able to. Now you can
