![]() ![]() It's interesting to hear about auto-battlers becoming more relevant because a game I really liked growing up was Digimon Championship. I have a feeling that some random idler/autoattacker is just gonna take off someday and spawn a million copycats in this genre, like how Among Us did for the mafia/werewolf/town of salem etc games. ![]() This also reminds me of some older games, like those idle/clicker games and autoplay RPGS (Elona). SIRALIM ULTIMATE GOG HOW TOIn Vampire Survivors you need to think not only about dodging enemies but figuring out how to circle back to the place where enemies were attacking you to gather EXP and items, forcing you to think a few steps ahead so it is not purely a reactive dodging game. There's a decent amount of deck-building in Loop Hero and I can imagine someone can easily spend a lot of time optimizing base upgrades, tile cards and class traits. Probably helped by both an expanding mobile game space (simpler games for simpler layouts) and people's time availability (you grow older and spending a few minutes doing something that doesn't involve a lot of effort becomes preferable to spending a few straight hours on something like Dota or Dark Souls).īut I still find that these games can make for an interesting experience even within a limited format. ![]() Nothing revolutionary but I just find it interesting that more games are coming out now that are removing you from the doing things directly. You do pick up EXP and gold and unlock characters and stuff but the basic mechanic is just pressing WASD, and your character attacks surrounding enemies automatically. While a horde of enemies chase you around. Vampire Survivors just has you walking around. But it's a cool story and has some really good world-building. It has a lot more depth to it and I haven't even progressed a quarter-way through the story, which is about the whole world dying and then somehow reconstructing. In Loop Hero you place tiles around a map, which give buffs, debuffs, items and spawn enemies on the world map while your main character walks around and fight automatically. Both games are somewhat similar, in that you don't participate in combat directly like you would in any other game. So let me start by talking about Loop Hero which I started playing a couple days back, and is sort of topical with the recent buzz around Vampire Survivors. I think a thread where anyone can share their random thoughts about games would be neat. ![]()
