Please don’t forget to use the spoiler tag as soon as you start talking about a storyline.
Staring at the clock waiting for Baldur’s Gate to release lol
For a real answer, some Arma III with the boys, some Sea of Thieves with the boys, some Across the Obelisk with the boys…
I only really play co-op anymore it would seem lol.
Still chipping away at Tears of the Kingdom. With a newborn in the house it’s such a great game to pick up for 3 minutes, wander a bit, and put down instantly. Or to play for 2 straight hours while he sleeps on your chest.
Im pretty close to the end but I’m finding myself putting it off as much as possible, leisurely wandering around the map to take on quests or shrines. There is so much to do and see. 120 hours in and it still feels like I’ve barely started it.
Metro Redux was free on Steam so I started that and am not disappointed
Haven’t played the latest but the first two were just amazing. The atmosphere and worldbuilding… I loved wandering in metro stations turned towns, hearing the chatter and activities around me. I think that was most prominent in the second game iirc
Doing a melee only playthrough of Fallout 4 at the moment. First time doing a non shooting playthrough.
Dragons Dogma Dark Arise on my new Linux laptop 😊
Finished Yugioh the sacred cards just now, and got annoyed they never let you use Winged Dragon of Ra.
Just got back into Europa Universalis IV yesterday and have been re-addicted to it ever since.
I had been hooked on Crusader Kings III for a very long time, but I realized at some point that I was ignoring all of the roleplay elements and just map-painting, so I decided to play a game that specializes in map-painting.
I’m also having an incredible time playing Battlebit Remastered. I’ve always been intimidated by competitive shooters, but the massive battle sizes and the light-hearted community really bring the game together.
I’ve been playing Tin Can lately. Figuring out how to survive each event and deciding what parts to cannibalize is really enjoyable to me. I’m almost up to 25 minutes surviving!
I finished both Diablo 1 (devilutionx) as well as Diablo 2 (remastered). Both are still great games
Still deep in on Street Fighter 6, hit Diamond with Manon, and now heading to diamond with Marisa, and really tempted to push for Master rank with her. Still having a huge amount of fun with it, and excited to watch Evo this weekend.
Finishing up Remnant 2, several play throughs complete, and have had a lot of fun in single player and co-op. Definitely will be back for more.
Will be playing Baldurs Gate 3 this evening, really looking forward to sinking my teeth into this game, and hopefully enjoy it as much as I did the short period I had in Early Access.
Dysmantle, great little indie game I played on PC back in EA but now enjoying the final product on PS5 as it was included in PS Extra
You smash the environment and zombies to level up and find parts to build new weapons and tools. The game is a bit wonky but the satisfaction of getting that new weapon to be able to break down larger objects is addicting. Will set you back 20+ hours at least.
I’ve been on my first RDR2 playthrough. Unfortunately once I get to the bank job in StDenis I’m treated to a BSOD every time, as soon as I start the mission. So I alternate with a little Psychonauts, which I also never played before. Real good stuff, old school platforming, just what I love. I grew up on Megadrive then Xbox and I kinda miss the plethora of platformers that released in the day. If anyone has a good (recent) platformer recommendation…
After beating Final Fantasy XVI I resubscribed to FFXIV and played the latest patch’s story updates. It’s interesting to go back to XIV after playing what feels in many ways like it’s successor. XVI has problems, but they’re the a subset problems that XIV has, and it shores up so much. My main thing is the almost complete lack of engaging combat scenarios in XIV’s MSQ. There’s so much fun in the endgame that it’s hard to complain too much, but I hope they fix that in Dawntrail.
Oxygen not included, it’s a fantastically detailed colony sim if you like physics and colony sims, you are in for a treat, it’s like if rimworld, minecrafts redstone system and the powder toy had a baby in the best way possible
I had really enjoyed the ea of BG3 so I’m pumped to play the full game! After two hours I’m pleased to say I made my character. Lol.
