I really need one /v/.
Mother 3
Katamari, Grow Home, Rayman. Cheer up, Op.
The game industry isn't mature enough for a game to take on mental illness, sadly.
Though Silent Hill: Shattered Memories wasn't bad story-wise.
>>344054394
He said against depression, not about depression, dumbass.
>>344054585
What does that even mean though? What is he looking for? An enjoyable game?
>>344054118
I tried to laugh but i can't
>>344054278
I've already played katamari and rayman since years ago except to Grow Home, i will check out this game, thanks anon!
I've been depressed for so long with my shitty life, hope some games will help me get through those feels.
Witcher 3 will take you out of the real world for a good while.
>>344054585
You're right
>>344055000
I just want a game which help me to fight my depression, i have not enough money to pay anything else like psychologist beside food and electricity, no friends, family who hate me...etc
Manhunt
>>344055319
>I just want a game which help me to fight my depression, i have not enough money to pay anything else like psychologist beside food and electricity, no friends, family who hate me...etc
If you're looking for some games that are just meant to be fun, that have a good vibe, I suggest:
>Wonderful 101
>Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze
>Splatoon
>Child of fucking Eden
I'm sorry if I sounded like an asshole. I was genuinely wondering what you meant.
>>344055180
I've liked witcher 1, didn't like witcher 2 at all, maybe the third episode will be great to me.
I will try it too anon. Thanks to all of you and those who will suggest games to help me.
>>344055567
You don't need to apologize, i'm the retard one here because i wasn't clear enough.
I can play child of eden, not the other games you suggested me, i've only got a PC, ps3 and 3ds sorry.
>>344053658
UNDERTALE
>>344055965
>3DS
Try Kid Icarus: Uprising. Great game with a great, fun atmosphere. It's a very bright, vibrant game with a gorgeous atmosphere, very fun, deep gameplay, and a colorful cast of characters who all have some fantastic banter.
Child of Eden is a fantastic game that you should be able to find cheap somewhere. Sincerely one of the most underrated games ever. It's a true, genuine, beautiful experience that almost brought me to tears.You're not a retard, OP.
>>344056031
Why not, i've heard a lot about undestale's humor.
Spyro & crash 123
Het an emu + controller and enjoy these timeless masterpieces
>>344053658
>waah im so depressed :(
chin up faggot and stop being a little bitch
>>344056356
You convinced me for Kid Icarus, i've heard that this game does not even taking himself seriously.
I will check out child of eden too, thanks for your support anon.
>>344056741
>I'm so badass to insult people
That's great.
>>344056586
I've liked spyro, never played any crash though, i will check this series too thanks.
>>344056975
No problem anon. KI:U is just good fun, doesn't even remotely take itself seriously for the most part. Probably one of the more magical games to come out recently too.
And CoE is an audio-visual experience. It's so amazing.
>>344055002
Yeah sorry, mother 3's still a great game though.
Chrono trigger is a great game, it had sad moment but it made the character in it more stronger, like you will.
>>344058594
And definitely play Chrono Cross after you finish trigger
>>344053658
Good games that lift my depression:
STALKER anything, try the misery mod for CoP
Yume Nikki
VA-11 Hall-A
New Vegas
>>344053658
>Whiskey.
My mother recently died and it helped me a lot.
McPixel
Quake 2
Cave Story
Super Meat Boy
Machinarium
Demon's Crest
Bahamaut's Lagoon
Terranigma
Secret of Mana
>>344053658
Animal Crossing was made to deal with that
>>344058594
>>344058763
I've already played Chrono Trigger but not Chrono Cross, thanks for your suggestion anon.
>>344053658
dota 2
Depression Quest
>>344059274
That "game" is such a fucking joke that this is actually a valid response.
>>344059158
You should play Cross then to see the continuation of Chrono's whacky adventures
>>344059109
This. It's impossible to be sad while playing AC.
Feel better, anon. Remember that suicide is never an option, and that you likely have people who care about you. It gets better.
>>344058832
Never played any Stalker, i will try this serie.
I've seen a resumed of Yume Nikki, i've feel related to the main chracter in this game, i will try it.
Never heard of VA-11 Hall-A, i will try it too and i've already played New Vegas, the best 3d fallout.
Thanks anon.
Indie exploration games are good.
Not like, the sad, somber, "mystery" type ones, but like the light-hearted, adventure, bright colors kind.
Grow Home
Qbeh
FRACT OSC

Final Fantasy IX has some depressing shit and storylines but overall it's a pretty upbeat, colorful adventure.
>>344053658
Persona 4. Seriously.
It's upbeat but not obnoxiously so. It's long and pretty fulfilling once you reach the ending. It has a pretty positive outlook on life.
>>344058995
I've never heard of these you suggested me except quake 2, super meat boy and secret of mana, i will try to play all of them if it's possible, thanks anon.
Another anon said gone home. I have to say that cheered me up after a bad week. You will feel better soon anon don't worry
>>344059109
Seconding this. Animal Crossing is good vibes: the game. Everything is silly or calm and you can do everything at your own pace. New Leaf is probably the best in the series along with the Gamecube version.
Persona 4 is a great friend-simulator
>Any games against depression?
someday we will decipher what this means
>>344060032
The last 4 are snes games.
The others are extremely easy to get.
Cave story is free, McPixel and Machinarium are dirt cheap.
Good luck.

Persona 4 was a huge help for me.
>>344053658
I don't know why, but the times I've felt genuinely depressed, point-and-click games with a lot of story helped me out.
>>344060380

>>344059913
I feel the same, even it is more harder for me to play hours and hours on game like when i was a child.
I miss my childhood where i've spend days ans days and days playing games.
>>344059986
Already played, is one of my three favorite FF with FF4 and FF6. Thanks anyway anon.
>>344054585
I wish there were more games about depression.
I played Silent Hill 2 when I had it bad and I felt as if I could identify with James more than any other main character.
And I want more of that shit.
>>344061360
The last time I had a childhood-tier "oh shit it's been 8 hours and I forgot to sleep" timesink was playing South Park: Stick of Truth
Basically anything with "one more game/level/turn" mindset is good for it.
"One more game" multiplayer: Overwatch
"One more turn/level" single player: Elder Scrolls games, Civ V, Bioshockat least for me
>>344061725
Depression Quest
>>344061861
>>344056031

it's exactly like >>344060029 said*
>>344053658
Not really. Online friends might help, but video games won't on their own. Vidya is an inherently isolated activity, and isolation is the primary cause of depressive symptoms.
I don't know if it's possible to be sad while playing Wonderful 101. It's the only game I can think of in recent memory where I was filled with unbridled, childish glee the entire time I was playing.
>>344062315
I don't have enough money to allow myself a therapist.

I will definitely try persona 4, thanks again anon.

Video games aren't the solution to depression, buddy. You need to go outside. Run around until you tire yourself out if nothing else. There's plenty of things you can do that cost no money and will improve your life.

I've tried a lot to be better since years to please my family, to get friends, first it worked, then a a lot of things happened with my family, with my school, which bring me to my actual state, feeling lonely, without friend and family cherring me up.
I don't want to try anymore for now, i just want to get out first of my depression, then i will try to find the will to get out from my isolation too anon, sorry.

You'll realise you're spending your valuable time being an ass to someone who's having a hard time and most likely doesn't need more crap.

>>344054118
>>344055002
Mother 3's actually not a bad choice, depending on what's making you sad. If you're dealing with loss, it might just be what you need. I played through it after my dad passed, and it helped me sort through some of my emotions and thoughts.
But if you're depressed for reasons you can't label, you probably shouldn't play video games for a bit. Go outside and meet people. Or play multiplayer games with friends, particularly couch play.
>>344065017

You're looking at it the wrong way.

As stupid as this may sound, watch MLP: FiM when you're taking a break from gaming. I've stopped watching so I don't know if anything past season 4 is good, but the show is light hearted, colorful, and easy fun. Helped me when I was succidal.
>>344065482
>I've already played SF4, is SF3 really different?
Wildly so. SF4 tried to as far different from 3 because 3 is the most technical git gud game in the series. SF4 is like a more casual, I don't mean that in a bad way because I'm not elitist, slower version of SF4 with a larger roster and less appealing aesthetics. I can have fun with 4 but I'm not it's biggest fan. Do a little research on 3 if you're interested. If you're not SF2 and SF Alpha 3 are also pretty great.
Also, Third Strike Ken is one of the greatest fighting game characters of all time.
>>344065636
You'd be suprised. There is an oversaturation of self-diagnosed PTSD, autism, depression and ""social anxiety"" it's unreal.
It doesn't make me feel good, you stupid? I'm just tired of seeing people with access to food, water, an income and a roof over their head, trying to feel like their life is shit.

>>344064305
You're not going to pull yourself up by your own bootstraps. If you're not willing to directly address the issue, then I recommend visiting a therapist, who can get a better idea of your specific situation and help you formulate a strategy that works for you. If you're not working to get better, you're probably getting worse. Don't just play video games in the hopes that it flips a switch because you'll quickly find yourself bereaved of time.

Hello, projection, my old friend.

Alongside 2Pac, Biggie's Sky's The Limit is a song I used to always listen to. My uncle had depression also and he told my he used to listen the The World Is Yours by Nas every morning. Both are incredible songs.

Very interesting, you sure showed me how wrong I was.
And, again, you clearly have no idea of what you are talking about, but it's ok, it's not like you are the first and the last smartass who posts such banal commonplace remarks.
And before you try to spam some ad hominen to try to save face again, please don't do that, save your and my energy for something less annoying and more pleasant.

I just need to find the will to try again but for now, i just want to feel something else, to think about something else, i think games can help me for that.
>>344066479
I will try it, thanks anon.
Play Doom non-stop for three months straight, then go shoot up the school.Just kidding. I'd say go for a Kirby game of some sort. Easy to relax too, hard enough in the post-game to really distract yourself if you still feel like pushing yourself.
>>344067714
>it's a projection rebuttal episode
>ad hominem
You thought your post was witty or something? Were you that annoyed by me merely calling you stupid? Let's put that to the side for now.
Do you know what projection actually means? Do you even know what I would be projecting in this case? Regurgitating what people say on 4chan isn't a good look. But good job replying to my post with nothing but "witty" remarks. Sure showed me.

Harvest Moon/Stardew Valley
>>344068056
I'm no doc or anything but i was feeling in a state of depression a year ago. i was like no interested in anything i usually like, i felt like i was a failure i even start smoking and drinking cause i didnt care anymore. But then i understand what was my probleme. It was induce by my lack of success in life, to fulfill my ambition. So i tried harder to succeed in college i take some magnesium and vitamine to be boosted, and after passing my test i felt like nothing happen, it was all in my head and fuck social glory fuck money fuck everything i want to be free and alive and happy so now i dont care about social weigh i care about myself and i just chill every moment of my life.
>>344068056
>I don't have enough money for a therapist
If you're unemployed, I recommend getting a job (please don't take that the wrong way). Even if you're still not making enough to afford a therapist (I recommend learning about your options. You might be surprised what is available to you), getting and holding a job will help you make positive life changes. It is too easy to fall into a cycle of self-neglect and emotional degradation as a NEET.
Definitely Persona 4 OP. Only downside is your depression might be gone by the time you finish the game.
little big planet is chill as fuck
If you can play Katamari and still feel bad, nothing will pull you out of it. That is the happiest game ever.
But once you finish a happy game, you'll get a post-game depression, anon.
Try to get spare cash to talk to a therapist, helped me out a lot actually.

But, more importantly, I would never post a serious or semi-serious reply to someone like you.
As annoying as that guy can be, he clearly isn't an angry idiot who desperatly try to provoke people for attention like you.

I suffer from depression and anxiety. And Gravity Rush actually helped a lot. With my anxiety mostly because I think, worry, and obsess over life shit.
It was the perfect game to just turn my brain off and fly around collecting gems and doing challenges with a comfy OST.
But the same can be said with any game. A lot of the time I just play vidya to relax and not think about shit.

>>344070389
Well as long as you were replying to me and not him, what's annoying is when I have experience with these feelings and am relaying things I've tried that have worked (whether or not they work for him is his judgement) and someone accuses me of parroting received banality I've never dealt with personally because they (I assume) have had a different experience with misery, clinical depression, and ever the twain shall meet.
>>344070389
Good argument. This isn't a safespace where you can find likeminded selfdiagnosed. Nobody is trying to provoke you; you aren't that important.
