Xcom UFO Defense is one of the best games ever made, and far better than the new schlock that came out. Xenonauts is an acceptable modern homage.

I've played 'For honor' on xbox since launch. Still do.

Anyone tried teardown it looks pretty fun

Teardown looks like one of those games that'll get boring and repetitive after a few short hours. Some people have complained that the tasks/missions are monotonous.

I've read that the developer is allowing for a modding scene though, so if there's any real potential in mod releases, I'll probably get it.

I spent so many years talking about how FromSoft games suck and were just for masochists and then in August Bloodborne finally clicked for me and now I’ve played through that and the Dark Souls series and am playing Sekiro now

I was an idiot, they’re fucking great

Yeah I've got a couple hundred hours or so on all 3 Dark Souls

yea the idea that they are so difficult and punishing was really only for modern casual-leaning players, people that aren't used to being punished for dying or not being able to select Easy difficulty or quicksave. a lot of people are in the same boat, avoiding it for what they perceive it to be, and would like it if theyd give it a chance. if they dont want difficulty they can look up a build to follow

I agree with funnytimesroblox i enjoy thunderforce 4 or twinkle tale recently because the difficulty is very fair if you spend a fevels smashing it up br 20 dollar time. The gameplay does spike hard tho and you better be prepared for the red scorpion evan br blackout.

plenty of modern games are high difficulty or have challenges that are, its just not in the mainstream much so stuff like dark souls gets that reputation. its common in games a notch below mainstream though

when i see what some Osu! players are doing, and similar games... looks nuts, guess the high-end rhythm stuff has always been nuts though, like the insane DDR dancers from last decade
