Great video. There is also a PS4/Xbox One version of Vanquish as part of the Bayonetta & Vanquish 10th Anniversary Bundle with improvements such as 4K 60fps for PS4 Pro and Xbox One X. I believe it's on sale often as well.

Every so often when I'm stressed and have a need to decompress, I come back to Tamriel to walk around and soak in the music and the scenery. Just walk around aimlessly until something happens. And then walk some more. Sometimes, I take Lydia with me. Sometimes, Serana. Maybe one of my save files has a reikling with me, and I pass the time seeing what he can do. Sometimes, I just go to my property and start planting.

@BBKDRAGOON Ай бұрын

I like that, hopping back into Skyrim from time to time really gets the chill vibes going for me as well

Mirror's Edge is a great example of how a game doesn't need to be filled to the brim with "content" in order to be good. It's a game that can be beaten in just a few hours, yet I've probably spent 100+ hours on it over the years just because it's such a highly replayable game with solid gameplay fundamentals.

yeah, kinda weird to see that on a list of comfor games 🤣 but ig it can be a comfort game for those who have mastered it to a point where they just feel good cruising through those games

I have to say I've really been enjoying the more general gaming culture type videos you have been doing lately, they have been really giving me a more positive outlook on gaming with their focus on just having a good time over the state of "modern gaming". Thank you man and keep it up

@BBKDRAGOON Ай бұрын

Thank you very much, that means a lot and is helpful to hear. I'm having a lot more fun just trying to talk about chill gaming stuff, rather than hyper focusing on FPS games. I still love the FPS space but like you mentioned, so much of that space has just turned into criticizing modern shortcomings. Again thanks, and cheers

My 4 main comfort game I'd say are the Trials games (HD, Evo and Fusion), Celeste (especially farewell), Dark Souls 1 and Half Life 1 All these game I'd consider myself having mastered a good amount, so going back to them now just feel so comforting knowing they were once a terrifying beast for me

GTA Vice City - I played this game so many times, I probably know all the missions by heart now. However, I still love to boot up this game just to get in the car and drive around while listening to 80s music. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. (any game in the series) - there's nothing like sitting around a campfire with other guys and one of them starts playing the guitar

For me comfort games are really anything that as you said (& I say often) are just "Gamey Games". They're not trying to be a 10/10 big budget thing & normally score 6-8/10 but they know what they are & embrace it. Most recently it was Pepper Grinder, Horizon Chase 2 & Streets of Rage 4 which I beat in about a week total. All great games that don't waste your time & have legs if you want to go back to 100% complete.

We go camping regularly in the summer and have a weekly board game night with our friends. However, i don’t really watch tv much at all. So the normal amount of time a regular person may watch tv at night/after work is when i play games. I do play a lot but my life is very much in check lol

I own Vanquish and Bayonetta for Xbox 360 [Physically] and Xbox One [ Bayonetta and Vanquish 10th Anniversary Remastered Bundle Steelbook Edition]. I bought both Bright Memory games [Plus DLC] on the Xbox Marketplace for half-off on March this year. I have Mirror's Edge and Mirror's Edge Catalyst, I didn't even pay for either because the 1st one, my ex-friend never came back for it and the 2nd one I got it at Gamestop for free because of the Buy2Get1Free deal. I haven't played Super Meat Boy in a long time, fun times!! Metal Gear Rising Revengeance is currently on my game search list. Vanquish, Mirror's Edge, Bright Memory, Bright Memory Infinite are definitely comfort games 💯.
