B0NK3RS, 1 day ago to games in What are some eras of gaming that you've stopped feeling nostalgic for?

Even though I grew up with 8/16bit I’ve never really had any nostalgia for it apart from a select few games.

B0NK3RS, 13 days ago to patientgamers in Patient gamers, what are your favourite city builders?

• Ostriv
• Banished
• Surving the Aftermath
• Frostpunk
• Planetbase

Smaller scale than Cities Skylines and also have other gameplay mechanics but that’s how I like it.

B0NK3RS, 13 days ago to patientgamers in Patient gamers, what are your favourite city builders?

I’m the same way with games that just get overwhelming and I loose interest.

Ostriv is another game like Banished where it is smaller scale so you might like that too.

B0NK3RS, 13 days ago to patientgamers in Is anyone still playing Command and Conquer Generals (+ Zero Hour)?

I played it lots back in the day. I was watching a random Twitch stream last night for C&C Generals multiplayer. 5 player skirmish was just an absolute frenzy.

B0NK3RS, 16 days ago to patientgamers in What's your favourite era for video games?

It’s still there but with family instead friends now. My kids won’t get the same experience though which is sad.

B0NK3RS, 16 days ago to patientgamers in What's your favourite era for video games?

Probably the period of '95 thought to '05. Mostly because they were the days of local multiplayer with friends and also the jump in technology made things even more interesting.

Combined we had all the 4 player games on the N64. So Goldeneye, SSB, F-Zero, Mario Kart, Snowboard Kids, DK Racing, Perfect Dark, WCW vs NWO and more.

I have 2 cups in the morning and then an espresso later on.

B0NK3RS, 19 days ago to games in The PlayStation 2

I didn’t own a PS2 until about 2006 when I lived with my girlfriend (now wife!) but even then it was replaced with an Xbox 360 the next year.

I’m a Dreamcast and GameCube kid and I do love the PS1 but just haven’t got any nostalgia for PS2.

I haven’t played it yet and every time I get reminded of the game it’s because of something like this…

B0NK3RS, 1 month ago to patientgamers in Older patient gamers: what is your preferred gaming platform?

I’m glad you went with that and not on a history lesson…

B0NK3RS, 1 month ago (edited 1 month ago) to patientgamers in Older patient gamers: what is your preferred gaming platform?

Probably the Xbox Series S because of the quick-resume feature. Sometimes I just want to play for 15 minutes in-between other stuff so skipping the loading time is great.

B0NK3RS, 1 month ago to games in The Sega Dreamcast

I think the 3 main reasons why are lack of DVD player, lack of 3rd party support and then the player base losing confidence because of the Saturn.

DCJY podcast Ep.100 is great for this and has an interview with Peter Moore that gives some details.

It wasn’t really an issue while the console was still alive though, at least not until very near the end at least. It would have became a massive issue if the console continued though.

SWH is excellent so the same and more please.

B0NK3RS, 1 month ago to patientgamers in Games that still need more patience: what games released a year ago (or older) are you waiting for a sale on? Or that need another patch?

Highfleet

It’s been on sale a few times but not more than maybe 30% so I’ll keep waiting.
