General Gaming What game(s) have defined your pandemic?

[heydude93]

When reflecting on what i played in the past year or two, TLOU2 will probably be what I think of most.  Aside from that I think I spent the most time with Sekiro, Videoball, Far Cry Primal (I really should've started it sooner, it's fantastic), Crysis and Dreams.

I would say Trails of the Sky looks a lot "cleaner" than something like Fire Emblem which Chris seemed to enjoy a lot.

 

I'm sure they're fine games, I'm just goofin.

Animal Crossing, Monster Hunter (various) and CoD: Warzone/MW/CW.  All games that never really "end".  They're where I've sunk most of my pandemic time.

I’ve heard good things about The Legend of Heroes series, and I plan on getting Trails of Cold Steel 1-4 when they’re on sale.

 

By the way, you might want to check out Tokyo Xanadu eX+ and Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana if you haven’t already as they’re a couple of good JRPGs made by the same developer (Nihon Falcom).

Yup, got both of those, Ys VIII has the best "start of an adventure" music ever.

I'm glad, was not looking forward to explaining that one of the characters is technically 10,000 years old so masturbating to her really isn't a big deal.

Nothing in particular.  I have some bad gaming ADD and hop around from game to game and rarely finish something unless it really hooks me. I've just hopped around more games than usual since I don't have to waste 2 hours of my day driving anymore.

I didn't game for the majority of the pandemic, so I don't really qualify for this. But Bayonetta is fucking incredible.

Hollow Knight feels like my pandemic game... but I finished it right before lockdown.

 

Otherwise, I beat a ton more games since the pandemic started than I normally would.  It's been a virtual tourism thing for me.  Hellblade, Undertale, Spyro 1, Broken Age, FF7R, Uncharted series, Inside, Flower, Pyre, Hades, etc.

The Last of Us Part II and Ghost of Tsushima are the most memorable games that I played last year.

All of the music in the game is fantastic, and the game itself is a lot of fun. I’m looking forward to Ys IX: Monstrum Nox.

I’m essential so no out of the ordinary gaming experiences. My wife and son both got really into Animal crossing as they were both home. So I guess watching them play that every day could classify as the game that defined covid for me.

Ghost of Tsushima has been my GOP (lol). Also my game of the generation. It was pretty much perfection for me.
