Skyrim OST is absolute peak. Hard agree on that. The rest are great too.

I loved Mirror’s Edge. The sequel was decent too. I kind of want to replay it again.

I play that game just for the soundtrack basically. It’s a great game anyway gameplay wise but that soundtrack is killer.

I loved Airborne. It was the only one I ever played though. Maybe I’ll revisit the series sometimes soon.

+1 for gunpoint, I absolutely loved that game and its soundtrack. That might be the best one commented so far.

We have the same taste it looks like. All excellent tracks.

Me too. I didn’t want to take any freebies with my initial comment and figured Halo would be picked pretty quick. I’m glad someone finally mentioned it.

Absolutely, the radio is fantastic. No joke it’s what got me into jazz which is one of my favourite genres now.

My wife likes to watch me play the Batman games, especially Asylum, and she recently requested I play them again. I put a couple hours into Asylum, so I’ve still got the itch to continue. City is the most nostalgic for me, but I think Asylum was the best game overall. It’s probably the one I revisit the most.

I was going to mention Hollow Knight but figured someone else would want to. Such a fantastic OST.

Also ditto on FromSoft stuff. The other one I was considering mentioning was Dark Souls III. They’re all great but that one is my #1 from them.

City brings me back no matter when I give it a listen. Origins, despite being the black sheep, had an awesome soundtrack too.

+1 for Celeste. Brilliant game, brilliant OST

I should do that for all the games. Go for picks I’ve never done before. I’ve definitely fallen into a rut, going for the same ones every time. I do the same in Dark Souls and Skyrim, always going for the same builds. Gotta force myself to try something new.

Good to know. I think I’ll go for a full new team next time, I usually pull from the same ~10 Pokémon.

Good to know, I’ll give it a shot on my next playthrough. How early can you get it? I’ve always ignored them.

I forgot that the thunder stone is actually attainable in the main game of crystal, that does make it better. Jolteon is post game in GS unfortunately. I haven’t tried Lanturn, maybe I’ll give it a try next time. I’m not a fan of Electabuzz, not really sure why. Maybe I need to give it more of a chance.

Well objectively Ampharos is by far the best electric type in the game if you aren’t using legendaries. Between her stats, move pool, and how early you can get her. There’s also some subjective reasons for me too, she’s one of my favourite Pokémon they’ve ever released. I only usually play Crystal if I’m okay using legendaries for the playthrough and then I’ll hunt for Raiku as early as I can. There’s not many good electric types in Johto unfortunately. The other alternative is getting Kadabra and teaching him thunder punch, but you don’t get STAB and he’s not the most defensive out there. It works but it’s not ideal. You could skip having an electric type on the team altogether but it’s a very valuable type to have. I’m curious what you use instead of Ampharos, if anything.

I guess I’d fall into the medium savvy category by your definition. I’m running Linux and for the most part it’s been relatively smooth but there have been lots of things I’ve needed to look up. I’d like to be more tech savvy and that’s part of the reason I’m running Linux and use lemmy, but I do agree the middle ground is the hardest for Linux.

Yeah that’s fair, I just love that RBY is so janky and you can kind of just do whatever in those games. You don’t even need cheats if you want to mess around with the game. You can get a Mew after the first badge, you can walk through walls, duplicate items, all the standard Pokemon cheats you’d usually use a game shark or action replay for, you can just do in those first games with glitches. They definitely do have a lot of problems though. Limited, unorganized bag space is probably my least favourite part of that game. GSC are limited bags too but at least it’s organized.

If you thought BW were alright, B2W2 are basically just improved versions. There’s a different story line and all that but it’s the Emerald of Gen 5 if that makes sense. I’m intrigued you’d rank Crystal higher than GS though. I love all three but Ampharos is basically mandatory in a Johto playthrough for me and she isn’t available at all in Crystal for some reason. No idea why they did that. If we’re breaking up games within a group though Emerald would definitely be higher than RS. Same thing with Platinum above DP.
