(this thread brought to you by: I bought Shadow of Mordor for like five bucks but that game is frustrating and it turns out eviscerating orcs makes me feel kinda gross right now)

@starkatt none of them are... particularly gay? but just looking through my recommendations on steam, The Beginner's Guide, Papo & Yo, and Dear Esther are all under $10 right now and have great stories, and Kentucky Route Zero is just over $10

@starkatt
Have you done dear esther? It's light on the gameplay, but I think it's a really poignant piece around struggling with identity and agency.

@starkatt
Me too :D
Okay... That Dragon, Cancer then?
The Beginner's Guide?
Uh... pretty much anything youtube.com/user/Campster/vide has reviewed? XD

@nightpool@cybre.space Dig it, already have it. Best depiction of dysphoria I've ever seen :D

Gosh y'all have a lot of really good suggestions and I've already played most of them. Will definitely have to check out some of the others <3

@starkatt oxenfree? I haven't played it yet but it matches your criteria and people say super good stuff about it.

Kentucky Route Zero is awesome and they donated to TransRelief too!!!

@Fuego Already played it. Maybe it should have gone on the list. Thanks!

Put another way:
If the last three games that I found had a lasting impact were We Know The Devil, Undertale, and Night in the Woods, what should I play next?

Okay y'all, game recommendations wanted. Ideally:

- Has primary verbs other than "shoot" or "stab".
- Is emotionally interesting
- Doesn't look like mud.

Bonus:
- Is gay
- Is less than $10

"This form of Apocalypse myth will appeal to people with Right-wing values: they present a rough world where only people with Right-wing values are able to survive. [...] Zombie apocalypse stories are a refinement of this genre [...]

"Why does it matter that a genre has such a clean mapping to an ideology? The stories we tell and consume have a feedback loop with our expectations."

@dhole@witches.town Oh, sorry! I tend to be a little jumpy after I had a channer come at me.

@dhole@witches.town Hi! You don't have any posts or a bio and that makes me real nervous. Can you let me know what you're about? Otherwise, tbh, I'm probably gonna softblock you.
