It depends on the mood. Sometimes I just feel like playing something and I don't want history or cutscenes getting in the way, just gimme a good gameplay loop that is easy to get into and hard to master. Other times I'm looking for immersion, do not mistake with just some good history, it's a mix of the right settings, art style, sound atmosphere and storytelling. Your example of Clair Obscur is the perfect example for this type of games and it also has incredible gameplay on top of it.

Too bad it has forced 21:9 aspect ratio, will wait until I get a 21:9 monitor then, because the demo was good.

Any kind of subscription is just a trap for everyone involved in it except for the ones setting it up. It might not look like that at the beginning but rest assured that is it only purpose. Avoid it at all cost!

Incredible good game, even if it is currently only half finished. Can't wait for 1.0 to come out!

Played the demo and, although it was a little too easy it was VERY fun.

Oh, that's great, downloading when I get home. Thanks for the heads up!

Just watched the trailer albeit without sound and had the impression it was a rhythm brawler, hope is not the case as I'm very bad at rhythm.

Looking forward to this game as I loved the previous one but not very confident in the outcome because all the shit goin on within the industry.

I played the demo and didn't liked it. While the 3D made it looks gorgeous, it also made it very difficulty for me to calibrate distances and so on, dying a lot because the 3D not the game's difficulty.

Try to get into this game when it was on game pass but, god, it was so boring and generic.

This would be neat if you didn't lost 90% of your FPS in the process.

Hi everyone! Yesterday I was checking the demo of Acrolyte, a pixel art metroidvania. The think I liked the most was the controls scheme, it was like the old game Abuse, keyboard for movement and mouse for aiming. So my question is, do you know any other modern (or not as modern) games that are similar? As in side scroller where you aim with the mouse. Doesn't matter if it is 2D, 2.5D or pixel art.

Cheers!
