Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?
AusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.world 1 day agoI wasn’t aware about the similarities with Dark Souls, and about the designer’s previous interests.
I guess what I needed was a strong recommendation. Just purchased the game on Steam after checking for its compatibility on ProtonDB (it is platinum).
Thank you for the recommending the game, and for taking away the chore of deciding what to play this weekend.
Again, I am really glad we had this conversation.

No problem, I love to espouse my opinions as I’m sure you can tell and I love talking about games in general. I especially love getting to recommend great games to other people, I get such second hand enjoyment from it every time.
To circle back to the very start of this conversation: I did eventually cave today and started NG+ of Mandragora. It’s so much more enjoyable than grinding out the last couple of areas of Blasphemous. Though now I worry my lack of discipline will lead to me never coming back and finishing it.
Very curious to hear your thoughts on Clair Obscur, for me it was one of the best gaming experiences I’ve had the past decade or so. It won’t beat Disco Elysium as my favourite game of all time, but it might well make a strong case for the number two spot.
