I don’t know, last time I had a barbecue at 5am no one showed up.

Something something both sides.

Thanks, now I’m having an existential crisis.

I can’t invest the time in MMOs anymore but I always miss them around this time of year. Guild Wars/Guild Wars 2 did a great job of it.

Costume Quest is great for a single player game.

I’ll also throw out a classic - Ghost Master. You manage a team of ghosts haunting different locations.

Doom 2 came out less than a year after Doom.

This is what I used Pocket for. And when it shut down, I didn’t even export my data…

Thanks for this.

One thing to add is that Discover updates from other sources including flatpak.

I haven’t tried combining online + local multiplayer. It basically adds the local player to the “lobby” so I would think it might interfere.

With you saying “each game let me down more than the last” I didn’t expect you to say your favorite was the second most recent game.

Interesting. What’s your favorite Elder Scrolls? Daggerfall was my first but Morrowind is my favorite.

Torchlight 3 and Infinite. I was a fan of Torchlight before there was Torchlight. I played Fate to death in college. I played Mythos during the beta. I probably put more hours into Torchlight and Torchlight 2 than I did into Diablo and Diablo 2 (and I put a lot of time into Diablo).

I actually had hope for Torchlight Frontiers. I thought it seemed like it could be what Mythos was trying to be - finally an online Torchlight game.

But then they forgot about all of that and essentially released “Torchlight 2 Mobile” but on PC.

Interestingly, I would say Sacred 2 as a huge fan of Sacred 1.

I’ve only played a bit so I can’t say if it’s worth the asking price, but it’s “refreshing” to play as an “old-school action RPG fan.” I played some Diablo 4, POE and Last Epoch and all that but none of them have stuck for me. I find myself going back to Fate (Reawakened is very solid now after a few updates), Torchlight and even Diablo 1.

Titan Quest 2 is solid. It’s slower paced, much like Grim Dawn. It feels much more like the campaign is the focus instead of something they expect you to skip through.

I will say while it’s not as polished at this point, Dragonkin has a similar feeling if you’re looking for more. Dragonkin is made by the team that made Warhammer Chaosbane but it has a lot more depth than that.

Well if you ever want to in the future, try the mod I linked. It works on Linux though I haven’t tried it on my steam deck.

I was so frustrated to learn that they removed couch co-op from the PC version of the Master Chief Collection.

If anyone is similarly frustrated:

This discord has a mod that re-enables it. My son and I have played through 1 and 2 so far and it works as long as you use the “classic” graphics.

Okay… This is good.

Anyone else miss defragging their hard drive? It was so satisfying.
