I'm between games at the moment, so I'm revisiting old favorites: Factorio and Hitman
I've got something like 170 hours in the modern Hitman trilogy over the years and still enjoy coming back to it sometimes. The only thing that comes close to it in the stealth genre is the Dishonored games.
Likewise Factorio: over 300 hours and the core loop is still so satisfying -- can't wait for the DLC, though
I was playing Baldur's Gate 3 but I'm burnt out on it at the moment. Combat is relentless in that game...
Just finished up Sea of Stars. Enjoyed it, but didn't love it. The visuals and music were spectacular. The story was kind of weak, and didn't too much time tying into the Messenger without resolving plots in a satisfying way. Some of the characters were good, but the actual plot felt kind of pointless. Gameplay was also fun, but took awhile to get going. I think it was really fun after some more options and characters were available, but the start felt too slow. Would still recommend it though. It is a very solid game. It's just not perfect.
Going back to finish Pikmin 4 next and start up Cocoon on PC too.
I just returned to Genshin Impact after spending a lot of time first playing Baldurs Gate 3, then Starfield and moving on to the expansion for Cyberpunk.
Valheim with a buddy. I fucking love it
I've been chasing the platinum on ps5 for Trove for some reason, and it's such an awful game, but i love it lmao. Just imagine the worst grind possible, and then have lots of that grind in distinct areas of the game, and there you have it. Tbf, i am a recovering destiny 2 addict so it's par for the course ig.
Outside of that, I'm currently grinding through revita on pc, and tbh it breaks into my top 3 rouguelites with gungeon and nuclear throne above it (sorry isaac). It's actually so much better than i thought it would be, and the run variety you can get is kinda mad after you put a good bunch of time into it. It takes so many good elements from other roguelites like the heat system from hades and is just a good, all-around experience which I'd say is on par with the big 2 (in my head) of gungeon and isaac (nuclear throne is great but it do lack content fr). My only issue is i put it on veteran mode, and after checking online, everyone says it makes the game worse. I wanna try the easier difficulty just to see how it is, but i cba restarting my save.
Thanks to the First Descendant beta, I'm probably putting another couple hundred hours into Warframe.
