Hidden gems might be a bit of a retarded buzzword, but video games have never been in a worse state than they are right now. Developers are not only churning out garbage titles and constantly abusing the consumer with unethical bullshit practices, but now they are taking old pure games and doing the same to them with remakes (classic wow, warcraft 3, etc.) Post some games that you can just sit down and have a good time in without constantly being reminded about how much you want to slaughter ever last filthy fucking jew on the planet.
I like to play of guards and thieves sometimes. It's a stupid free online game that's kind of dead. Emphasis on the fact that it's free. Fuck off with shit that isn't easily pirated or free.
>>444 What "Hidden Gems" are you looking for OP? Western, Japanese, and what genre/platforms? It doesn't do any good if I just list a bunch of obscure games that don't align with your interests.
>>452 >ethics are gay bro 420 hail it
>>446 Not OP but what are some decent emulatable adventure games (probably around PS2)? Also it sounds like he wanted something immersive, so maybe a game with a good story, or puzzles.
I'd like to know if there are any decent sidescrollers with fighting-game style combat (blocks, throws, combos etc)
I don't mean beat-em-ups with that 2.5D shit either, I mean 2D sidescrollers.
Distance and it's predecessor Nitronic Rush.
I keep coming back to those two every time.
Spot on controls, great visuals, matching music and a very active community.
Personally I love Hacknet, Celeste, and Downwell a lot. Works on low performing computers, all have some fun gameplay, and in two of those three I love the story (even if Celeste feels a little....Tumblr-y at times).
SuperTuxKart.
Just ramp up the graphics and don't use the Novice difficulty (too slow).
And download community karts and first. The Tyrone tan ones like the Cyber Bunny and Cyber Squirrel are the best made models. Someone made a Lamborghini too.
Zero Escape trilogy are some of the best story games I've played.
Buy/pirate "The Nonary Games" (on steam), that's the first 2 games, which includes a remake of the first one (originally on DS) with voice acting. Although if you don't care about shittier graphics, DS version of the first game makes use of the 2 screens in a pretty mind fucky way for the story.
I recommend playing first game on DS and then on PC, because the remake is really good.
