Good furry game suggestions?

[Judge Spear]

Oh yeah! Webbed!

 

[Borophagus Metropolis]

Ratchet is hot.

 

[Baron Tredegar]

If your into visual novels than Winds of Change and Komorebi are pretty good.

 

[DemonHazardDeer]

Oh! There’s a new indie fighting game with furry characters! It’s called Mofumofu Sensen

 

[Judge Spear]

That new Ninja Turtles game that dropped yesterday is fire.

 

[Baalf]

Agreed. The game seemed keen to waste my time in a lot of ways and I couldn't stand it. It and similarly Ori really are not nearly as fun as I had hoped. I genuinely think the overwhelming praise for both stems from typical indie fawning for "art style" over what it is you're actually doing.
Fist, Axiom Verge 1, and Monster Boy put them to shame, if you ask me.

I have to be honest, I kind of agree with Ori and the blind Forest as well. I got to try it out a while ago, and again, it's a pretty good game, but I just couldn't get into it for some reason.

Blind Forest I haven't tried. Will of the Wisps I played for a bit but was not really feeling it. I much prefer it to Hollow Knight, but again, there's better games in the genre than all three in my opinion. A lot of things did not come together how they thought it would and the game has a classic indie case of prioritizing pretty over function.
There's so many murky, slurry, glowy lighting and color effects that small things and stuff the game wants you to interact with or avoid gets lost sometimes. This is coming from a guy that plays Crimzon Clover on Unlimited difficulty with no complaints.
When it's good, it's fucking good. But that tends to only be during the big set pieces. Rest of it was usually grating for me.

Tell you one thing though... At least Ori and Hollow Knight ain't Souldiers! LOOOOL
Garbage ass game.

When you think about it, though...

Spoiler: ending

...Pretty much every furry character in the game dies. The whole game is about removing a curse that turned everyone in the animals, even though the curse really had no drawbacks whatsoever and everyone could pretty much live the way they wanted to. Honestly, the whole story just pisses me off.

Spoiler: Hold that thought

This is probably going to end as just a matter of personal tastes, like whatever you want, but that reaction sounds ... pretty heavy on the misanthropy?

Now it is highly convenient that most of the characters were already named after animals, and the game is admittedly pretty nondescript about any actual, dramatic ramifications that might logically ensue from a sudden collective loss of shared species. If the transformations were inverted (i.e. animal to human) you would naturally expect the cast to WANT to return to their original species, why should the same desire not logically exist as it is?

And I'm purposely NOT diving into any deep-lore speculation here.

If your into visual novels than Winds of Change and Komorebi are pretty good.

Also Golden Treasure: The Great Green in which you are a dragon.

"Pretty heavy on the misanthropy."

What do you expect from me?

But realistically, the only real drawback to turning into an anthro is, literally, "OMG, I don't look like a re-lay-tuh-bull hoo-man anymore." They'd likely gain new abilities, which ironically, the game friggen SHOWCASES with your main character. Why does everyone want to turn back so badly? Just because they look different?

Like, let's take Pinocchio: A True Story, for example. In the original story, or at least the Disney movie, there's a symbolic reason for wanting to be a real boy, with many of the things he enchounters either effecting him regardless of whether he's human or wood, or Strombolli wanting to turn him into firewood. In "The True Story," he gets burned alive, something he would have survived easier because he was made of wood because wood burns slower than flesh, and he also gets shot at with a gun, something he survived PURELY because he was made of wood! Him wanting to become human is baffling in the poorly written "True Story" because it gives me no reason to believe that becoming human would be a good thing. ...Well, except for the fact that he can do it with his girlfriend. I guess there's that.

Just saying the story is really stupid when you think about it. A curse that's debatably more helpful than hurtful, yet people want to get rid of it. Plus, the fact that they think looking like animals is such a horrible curse is... honestly pretty disgusting, tbh.

Is anyone going to explain to me why the OP label Persona and Okami as furry games?

 

[PiedPipecleaner]

In okami you play as a wolf goddess. It's feral but I still consider it relatively furry. Persona and SMT both let you have demon "pets", which can very much be furry-esque. Either way, the point of the games I listed was not that they were inherently furry, just that they were the kinds of games I liked in the past and met one of the two criteria I listed.

I have a ton of games that i've been playing over the years:

1. Kameo (Xbox 360 game) - You play as a shaman elf that can turn into different creatures (Yes I know you start as an elf... but it was on of the early TF games of 2006)
2. Monster Boy and the cursed kingdom - Start as a normal human. Getting turned into an anthro pig unlocking abilities later down the line to turn into other forms it's a metroidvania)
3. Divinity 2 Ego Draconis/Developers edition - Regular RPG where eventually you become a dragon knight. It was a brutal game.
4. Divinity Original Sin 2 (PC)- Lizardfolk are playable.
5. Total War: Warhammer 1,2,3 - All the warhammer races but on a massive map... Lizardmen, Skaven, Vampires etc..
6. Reign of Fire (PS2 game) - Play as a human or a Dragon. Attempting to wipe the other race out.
7. Dragon Rage (PS2 game) - Play as Cael Cyndar an escaped dragon to save the other dragons from Orcs (it's like discount Spyro)
8. Sands of Salzaar (PC) - Third person game where some of the characters can shapeshift into different races (I know you don't start as it but meh)
9. Amazing Cultivation Simulator (PC) - Animal races that are controllable to the player. Unfortunately, by being one of those races. You have a disadvantage with a Tribulation from the "Heavens" still a fun game.
10. Cat Quest 1 & 2 - Play as a cat to fight monsters (It's a short game)
11. Nobody Saves the World - Bullet hell game where you unlock transformation abilities.
12. Duck Game - You play as a Duck and fighting other players or doing arcade mode.
13. Timesplitters 2 (PS2/Gamecube or Emulator) - Unlock characters and you can play as a monkey... Robot... Squid person etc.
14. Almighty Kill your gods (PC) - You play as an anthro character fighting demons... Can't say more than that. (Floaty movement)
15. Gunfire Reborn - Anthro characters fighting demons (First person shooter. Binding of Isaac game)
16. Rimworld (With mods) - Top down colony management (Some animal based mods)
17. Maneater - Play as shark and nom on people.
18. Dust and Elysian Tale - Furry Ori game before Ori was a thing.
19. Stellaris - Space Civ game where you play as any race you have unlocked (or modded)
20. Gato Roboto - Play as cat in a mechsuit. It's a metroid game as a cat.
21. Hell Yeah - Play as a demon rabbit trying to kill those who saw his picture of him in a bathtub.
22. Hollow Knight - Insect based Metroidvania
23. Sacred 2 - Diablo Game where you play as "god" characters. Anubis Robots, Dragon mages, Angels and so on. It's enjoyable for a while.
24. YMIR - Top down Isometric. Brutal colony management game where Raiders kill you making 10 hours of gameplay worth nothing. Everyone are pig people.
25. Boundless - An MMO where you play as a cat person focusing on base building. Square enix unfortunately, heavily monetised it. (Used to be Oort online)
26. Dark & Light - One of the Ark Spinoffs that became abandonware (You can get consumables to turn into wyverns). Originally you could get other players to use other players as a mounts.
27. Chimeraland (Free to play Mobile/PC) - Pick one of the 13 races... It's amazing unfortunately the microtransactions and the toxic PvP community after level 40 is terrible. You can only play on an a server in Asia. It has one of the best building mechanics for an MMO.
28. Istaria (This is a subscription based MMO if you want to play as a dragon) - Not sure if the game is still alive right now though. But I remember playing it in early 2012... And it being bad.
29. Neverwinter (Perfect World Entertainment Free to play) - Dragonkin race (best race in the game)... Heavily monetised and they are the only race that is viable for end game content.
30. Rohan: Blood Feud - I remember i played it for a dragon playable race. I stopped playing because it was a PvP orientated MMO.

(I've not included any NSFW games... Or a few others because a ton are even more Subscriber based too)

Too bad that's the one species in the game that actually costs money.

 

[Inferndragon]

Yep. There are 2 races of that too... Normal Dragonkin and Ancient dragonkin (the real costly lootbox one)... It's so bad.

Reminder this game is rad.

If mon-collectors count...



Nexomon Extinction is a pretty good one. The gameplay isn't the most complex ever, but the monsters are cool, most of the world is open to you pretty early on, and it's got its moments of challenge while satisfying that classic Pokemon itch and then some, and with the reccent update, we got a new are and some pretty bad*** monsters, too. Though you don't play as a monster yourself.

Spoiler

...Or do you? If you're interested, play the game to find out more.

and loved that ending ehehehe. Am badass monster god :3

What do you expect from me?

Have we crossed discussion paths before? I can't confirm any specific topics. but I know I also lurk a lot more than I actually post....

 

[Judge Spear]

So I just learned about some Skateboard game on Gamecube that was a collab between Atlus Japan and SpumCo of all studios called Go! Go! Hypergrind. I've never in my entire life heard of this game which is weird because it doesn't seem like it was bad and those are two popular names.

I'm about to try this in Dolphin because I'm fucking intrigued.

Yeah it uh... is more style than substance. Which is fine by me but yeah that gameplay ain't great, cool idea tho I'd buy a pot Atlus just saying Rockin Cats too

Yeah this game sucks. Forget I mentioned it. Peak of skateboarding game era and they fucked up. But I guess I personally wasnt expecting Atlus to satisfy me.

Anyway.
I wish this project didnt seem to die. Resident Evil 4's inventory system turned into a puzzle RPG with a cute dog girl and her robot trash can friend.

It's at least a cool idea, and I personally think a games style can make up for gameplay, s'why I still love the original Jet Set Radio so much

There is that one Disney Skateboarding game with Simba, Tumone/Pumba and the elephant from Tarzan (Forgot his name). That one was actually pretty decent, since it used an THPS engine. I almost want to play it just because it has a skateboarding elephant.

Good boy

I really wish they would try again with that franchise, except big-name companies don't seem to care about animal mascot characters anymore. (Plus they already tried it once and it didn't work, so they probably assumed it can't work.)
