Has anyone played the new (mostly old/remake!) Story of Seasons games? I think I’ve reached my stardew limit for now but I was considering getting one of those.

I’m playing the new one just now, it’s slow going and it’s more based around relationship, building a family and growing old. I have a Pioneers of OliveTown save too which I also found slow. If you have PS+ I saw the Mineral Town one there..

I’m enjoying Sun Haven too but it’s only on Steam just now. Quite similar to Stardew

Does it matter what order you play the final fantasy games in? Or can you sort of pick up the story from any, ps plus has some but am not sure which to try out
They’re all standalone games, with different stories, characters and gameplay mechanics, so you can play them in any order! 😊

FF7 is one of the most popular games in the series (and a personal favourite) I’d recommend playing the original before the remake! The PS1 graphics are very dated now, but there is something nostalgic and charming about them. It’s being remade in 3 parts, part 1 is already out and part 2 is due to be released next year, so it’s a good time to play it!

I never got around to picking up Story of Seasons but I played the older Harvest Moon games, you might like a spin-off series called Rune Factory if you’ve not played it before? 🙂

I played friends of mineral town but honestly found myself going back to stardew, I might give it another try but even when I was a bit burnout on stardew I still found myself going back to it than playing FoMT

Thanks, I've actually went on got the new one an have found myself hooked on it 😅 but I'll give that one a try next, it's good to know they can be played in any order, I was assuming it was all same characters an each game picked up where the last left

Have you tried what remains of Edith Finch? It's short, like do able in one or two sittings but as far as story's go it's good an definitely realistic with if it could happen
I played everyone has gone to the rapture over lock down and absolutely loved it, I still need to try what remains of Edith Finch!

Try, my time at Portia. It’s a bit buggy but I really enjoyed it and it’s a bit similar to those types of games.

I can’t wait for my time at sand rock which is out in September.

Horizon Zero Dawn all day long. Those games are some of the few I've played to completion the last few years. I downloaded it during the pandemic when it was free and never looked back. The second one is okay but the first one is awesome.
Glad I’m not the only one that preferred the first one. I’ve just bought burning shores, so will give that a go.

So I've continued with God of War, it's intrigued me enough to continue but I don't love it and it's far too fantasy like for me.

I just cannot find a game I want to play. Red Dead, GTA, Tomb Raider, Uncharted etc are my sort of game but I've played all of those series and can't find anything else like them to play.
Oh I wish they’d do another Tomb raider, I really enjoyed the trilogy - although I’ve long been a fan.

I've been jumping between Hogwarts Legacy and Dreamlight Valley, my husband has already 100% completed Hogwarts Legacy and he started after me 😂

I've started Watchdogs. Think it will take some getting used to with how much there is going on but seems like my sort of game and enjoying the little I've played.

I've been playing Kirby and the Forgotten Land on Switch lately. Got it from a friend who has 100% it - it's really fun and actually quite challenging. Recommend to anyone with a Switch who hasn't given it a go.

Haven't really used the PCs lately - mainly because the fan on main PC (boyfriends) is broken and I'm too scared to replace it myself (he is working abroad), and the wired controller doesn't quite reach from my own PC in to the living room so I can game on the TV. We have both our PCs hooked up to the TV and the monitor in the kitchen. So I've just ordered myself a wireless controller hoping to get back in to it!

Anyone playing anything good from Gamepass right now?

Nice! I much preferred the second game in all honesty but I did go back and replay the first and enjoyed it more than I did the first playthrough. Yet to play legion myself!

They are very much all completely different games and for the most part, the stories and characters don't carry over between games. So you can play any, and if you don't like one you can try another and it might be up your street! There is a modern remake of 7 on PS Plus which I am playing right now and I love it :ROFLMAO: though it is more sci-fi ish and the newest one 16 is more straight fantasy Game Of Thrones type stuff. Like I said, just try a few different ones as they're all different but with some common threads between them.

Thanks I've downloaded 7 an 10 I think an will give then a go after 16, been enjoying that one a lot
 
does anyone here have a Steam deck? and if so how do you like it? 🙂
i got one during the sale and i actually really really love it. i feel like even though i got it at sale price it’s definitely worth full price and find myself using it everyday sometimes multiple times a day and it’s handy because it’s so portable too so if i’m travelling i can take it or if i just want to lay in bed playing, i can. would definitely recommend.

they have one on their website that's available but it's saying estimated delivery is 1-2 so bit worried it's coming to come when I'm in holiday 🙈 have found some cheaper ones on the FB marketplace so hopefully they're genuine and won't be scammed lol!
 
And now I've received a message from the delivery company that they have picked up the parcel despite yesterday saying it would be sent back to me...
