Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

Some games will be more obscure than others. But I promise every game I post will have had a retail English translation.

Can you guess this game ?

I will post the answer in 8 hours (if not answered)

Looks like Evolution 2 from ye olde Dreamcast.

[–] ItJustDonn@slrpnk.net 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

ye olde thanks for the reminder that the dreamcast is over 2 and a half decades old 🫠

never got to play the second but i liked the first one a lot as a kid and wished i had an extra mechanical arm

[–] Durandal@lemmy.today 3 points 2 days ago

Got mine at release... still have it... can confirm I feel old. lol

[–] emb@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Was going to guess Evolution, didn't remember that there was a second one. That protagonists certainly looks familiar, tho I thought his arm was weirder.

[–] 64bithero@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The OG game worlds. But very close

[–] Durandal@lemmy.today 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

ahhh. For some reason I didn't remember the butler being in the first one. I actually still have my disc somewhere heh.

[–] 64bithero@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

If memory serves correctly he’s the first member of your party ? Even before Linear ?? It’s been a long time since I’ve played

[–] Durandal@lemmy.today 2 points 2 days ago

yeah... I played it when it came out... so it's been a while. I watched some videos on youtube to job my memory and he's in there. I do love that you're like "ok.. robot arm! check. magic girl.. check! alfred pennyworth with a snper rifles.. uh.. check i guess? let's go!" lol

[–] phar@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Either Evolution 2 or Evolution Worlds

[–] 64bithero@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

The OG worlds !

[–] Dryad@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

See that’s the problem. I remember playing this game and having a blast till the final boss, but I can never remember the name and it haunts me. Thanks for the screenshot though. I know I didn’t fever dream it at least.

Evolution: The World of Sacred Device Publisher: Ubisoft (US) Developer: Sting Platform: Dreamcast Released: Dec 1999

Winner: Phar | Durandal

Thank you for everyone participating! Will post another tomorrow

[–] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 days ago

This is excellent, I'm going to go look up the first two

[–] Nurse_Robot@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

Never played this one, but it vaguely reminds me of Ape Escape for the PS1. Probably close to that era, at least

[–] ozoned@piefed.social 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I don't have a clue, but I love the butler standing in the background of this seemingly adventure group.

[–] otp@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

He's a member of the team!

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 3 points 2 days ago

The team demands more tea, Sebastian! Chop chop!

Looks like Dark Cloud or something like Skies of Arcadia to me.

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 2 points 2 days ago

Jongus and the Big Bungus 2
