Inspired by a similar question on reddit:
What games do you replay regularly/annually? (No shame if you skipped a year or two.) I am especially interested in ‘comfort’ games.
Only rule is, you should have played the game for the first time at least 5 years back.
My list:
-
Street Fighter 2 in all variations/on all platforms I have access two. I guess I have been playing it regularly for more than 25 years by now. No Street Fighter after the Alpha/3rd Strike ever captured me like this.
-
Contra / NES This one I play regularly for more than 30 years (at least), to this day my favorite action game and the ultimate benchmark (I played all NES/SNES/Genesis Contras and Operation Galuga, nothing comes close.)
-
Slay the Spire: Hits 5 years of being released, I played since the early access and wasted too much time on this, still fun and perfect on smartphones
-
Doom I/II: I cannot tell you what it is, there are obviously better FPS than Doom I/II, but sometimes, if I just want to blow some steam, Doom is the only thing that delivers. (I think I never played trough all episodes of either Doom I or Doom II

Chrono Trigger. I’ve played it on so many platforms it’s a bit mind blowing
I was waiting for someone to mention Chrono Trigger, thanks! At the same time it is one of my favorite games of all time, but because of this I always want to replay it when I can fully focus on it. (Which of course, never happens for adults.)
Have you gotten all 13 endings? You can actually do them in order in one NG+ play through.
Incredibly, in spite of the fact that I’ve been paying for 25 years, I very rarely go for any of the alternative endings, other than the developer ending if you beat lavos the first time.
I play Bloodborne during the Return to Yarnham event.
That’s great. I hope there will be a PC port someday. … and thanks to telling me about hte Return to Yarnham event, didn’t even know it exists and now I am looking forward to the Return to Lodran event next January! :-)

Lemmy is really selling me into this one, would this game be good also on the Nintendo Switch?
I barely use my phone for gaming (I barely use anything for gaming actually) and I don’t know about the genre that much, but I enjoyed Into The Breach a lot in my phone (although I only “finished it” once) would this be a good title to have in the phone too or better go with the Switch instead?
I have it on all my phones and Steam.
I love the phone version, because StS works perfect/intuitive with touch controls. I also play it on the laptop with a mouse, no problem. I never used a Switch so cannot comment on it at all.
It really boils down to how you like to play it, but right now it is only a few bucks in the Steam sale, and you can return it within 2 hours, so why not try it on Steam and see if it clicks? (WARNING: It clicked for me after more than 2 hours, at the start I found it a little bit bland.)
Thanks for your reply, it would be great if it supported cross save, god that is why I think a Steam Deck would be the perfect handheld for me lol.
Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Mankind Divided are two for me.
I always think of myself as being in between runs of the Long Dark; it’s the game I’m always in a state of playing for long stretches, even if it’s been 6 months to a year since I last booted it up. You just can’t beat that first gameplay loop of trying to find something, anything, to keep warm and stay alive for another day.
I don’t agree with some of the choices they’ve made with the new dlc, but it remains my most played game of all time and is a GOAT for sure.
