#game sequels

[gaygamer]

Raise your hand if you’d like a sequel or some other sort of follow-up to The Legend of Legacy and/or The Alliance Alive to be announced this year.

Well, my hand is raised, at least.

On a related note, this is one of 13 games I hope are announced or released in 2023.

What games do you think the sequels were better then the originals?

Things I would like in Bloodborne 2

Less blood. But in all seriousness, if I couldn’t have anything else I’d ask for better classes/customization. I liked the choice of background instead of outright class, and would have loved it if the different backgrounds had different clothes and gear. There’s a lot of room for different Victorian-era outfits, and it would be really cool to see what each background really specializes in without even looking at the stats. 

Personally, I’d also like the story to be delivered much closer to the start like in Dark Souls 3. There’s only so far “go out and hunt things” will keep people interested. I feel like populating whatever area that takes over The Hunters’ Dream could help with that. It’s pretty hard to get engaged when all you have to direct you are a weird doll and creepy guy. The church area was nice, but more people in the “definitely not gonna die here” area would be better.

Some more Gothic horror would also be appreciated. Cosmic horror was fun, but when I first played I figured it would be a fun romp through traditional gothic elements like vampires and werewolves the whole way through, but honestly it gets pretty cosmic early on. I would still keep a lot of the cosmic stuff, but relegate it more to something like the chalice dungeons.

The only other things are mostly personal preferences that I think could make the game more fun/accessible to new players: Steampunk stuff would be fun, more characters you can actually see (not just inside houses), greater options for weapons/abilities, npcs that explain the different abilities and sell you stuff for them, and a wider color pallet because when things start looking the same too much people get bored.

Day 719

I maybe should have bought that hidden object game that said Halloween Stories on it, instead of playing a game from my own Steam Library (even if that was the more practical thing to do). The reason why I say this is because I decided to play Ghost Files 2 for my Halloween themed hidden object game.

This made a lot of sense, while it had been a year (ish) since I played the first Ghost Files, it was a mystery detective game that involved the supernatural to a certain degree, so I thought that would be a good play. Most hidden object games that are a series, tend to revolve around the same player character, or at least tend towards the same themes. Like Dark Parables or Mystery Case Files (if you don’t include the first one).

To say I was kind of disappointed is an understatement. It was certainly a detective story, and for a while I was invested in the story (I kept thinking my detective fellow was going to get caught), but… it was kind of silly. I mean, the way hidden object games work tend to be a bit silly because none of that tends to work in real life. This may be why most hidden object games tend towards the fantastical, even if there isn’t a magical or paranormal reason behind it.

The more fantastical the story is, the more you ignore how dumb having to solve all these puzzles are in real life. Unfortunately, Ghost Files 2, is far more in the vein of grounded (sort of) mystery drama, that did make these convoluted ways of getting around or problem solving seem… meh.

Oh well, maybe next year I will buy the Halloween Stories series or something similar, or maybe just dip back into Mystery Case Files again. Just not at the moment, because there are other things to play.

Do you ever go back to earlier game versions?

Do you ever go back to earlier game versions?

I started “Tropico 5” several times lately only to realize that something isn’t right with it. I miss Tropico 4 – and I can’t even say exactly what it is. I called Tropico 5 a waste of my money for quite some time. After playing it for more than 110 hours, I obviously cannot say that anymore! However, Tropico 4 is still standing with more than 130 hours. And I didn’t even play it anymore after…
