Playing Dave the Diver at the moment.
Disappointed that it went on sale hours after I bought it but even at full price it’s worth the price of admission.
Finally started playing FFVII Crisis Core Reunion
Destiny 2.
When the EDF sale came around, I already owned 4.1 but decided to get back into it. Taking some references from a guide on what are the best weapons, I have a lot of fun as Wing Diver, and even finished a few missions on Inferno.
It probably helps that I got a new CPU since I last played the game. Handling hundreds of GIANT INSECTS on screen can’t be simple for old computers.
Returnal. It's hard as shit but very well designed
Back at modded Minecraft again. Prominence 2 (Fabric) on CurseForge. It's probably on other installers too.
CK3 with mods. I'm considering buying the tours & tournaments dlc
Forza Horizon 5 and Minecraft. Might get back to finishing Super Mario Bros. Wonder.
Still addicted to Overwatch
I just finished Tyrion Cuthbert: Attorney of the Arcane yesterday. Definitely the kind of game that sits on your mind a long time after you've finished. It's almost criminal to refer to it as an "Ace Attorney fan-game", seeing how many things they get so right so uniquely. They absolutely nail the kind of cathartic, heart-twisting drama of all of these characters that gets you cheering for the ending.
There's a lot in the soundtrack that I adore, especially the way they build multiple character leitmotifs and a particular track right at the finale of the game, but obviously, their equivalent of the "Pursuit" theme is always going to be a standout.
Final Fantasy VI Pixel Remaster. Almost finished, and then I'll have played through all the Pixel Remasters.
Fallout 3
Having a blast exploring the wasteland.
I got steel panthers (winspww2 to be specific) working on my steam deck, updated to the newest camp workshop version too.
The low resolution DOS style graphics actually are a natural fit for the steamdeck’s lower resolution screen lol.
I am having a lot of fun, there are many tactical war games that have come out since steel panthers 2’s original release that are technically superior in every single way but I am not sure they are better. Artillery is terrifying in this game and scouting is filled with tension.
Been playing the original ni no kuni as part of my Ghibli playlist.
The game shows its age right from the get go, though it's still adorable and fairly charming. 5 hrs in and my only complaint is that jumping is somehow an unlockable, but yeah guess it's just me.
Steam input support is a pleasant surprise. And I ran into a steam bug because of that(¯\_(ツ)_/¯).
Not the mobile, right? I think it's better than the mobile at least
It's Wrath of the White Witch Remastered on steam.
And yeah that mobile one looks like cash grab to me. Never played it tho.
Talos Principle. The VR version of the first game, haven’t gotten around to the second game yet. I love the puzzles (when I don’t struggle with timing running past mines), and it’s hilarious that the philosophical test to make a Milton admin profile showed me how utterly unprepared I am for philosophical debate, and how weirdly contradictory my viewpoints might be. Mind you, the only philosophy class I’ve taken in my life was an ethics class.
TL;DR Talos Principle is amazing so far, even though it makes me want to slink off back to college and sheepishly register for a philosophy class.
Warhammer 40k Darktide. Love my lil sexy Zealot. Always looking for new people to play with by the way...
Dragons dogma on switch. I tried to get into it on PX a few years back but it's really clicking now. Looking forward to 2 in march
Recently I'm back on halo MCC, halo infinite and just started high on life.
I’ve been playing the original Call Of Duty games, starting at the first one. I beat it and United Offensive. I’m working on the second game.
It’s all in service of a write up about the core identity and the design philosophy of the games. How the original games were fresh for their time, and how COD4 used a lot of the sensibilities of the WW2 games that preceded it. There’s a lot to mine and digest in the old games, COD4, and Modern Warfare 2 as a contrast and turning point. I just don’t know if people care enough to follow it.
im going to start cyberpunk tomorrow night cause my friend asked if i played the dlc yet. bye starfield and skyrim, i will return to you soon 🥹
Been playing Disney Starlight Valley. Idk why but it's pretty fun. Maybe because it's familiar, and grindy. The mood is always light and non stressful. We did notice that pocahontas is not in the game. Apparently she's too much of a PR liability maybe?
Otherwise I was binging hard on Grand Turismo 7. It was pretty well done.
Throwback last week was Ghost Recon Breakpoint. Friend was playing it so I joined back in.
I've actually started playing Genshin Impact, and it surprised me how fun it is! And it's nice to be able to play on the phone when travelling/sitting in the sofa, and then hop on the PC when the kids and wife has gone to bed.
