Kinda in between games, I'm currently playing genshin/star rail as fillers while I decide on something better to play. Occasionally I play pandemic legacy season 0 on tabletop simulator and it's a blast! Always love some pandemic legacy

Recently decided to give 'Oxygen not included' a try. Still learning the ropes on getting basics sorted out and what is the best path for research.

Armored Core 6, they added ranked matches today.

Dark Souls 1, want to finally 100% it.

Minecraft, because it's always nice.

I wanted to play Star Wars Rebellion, but my copy is doing a thing where all the icons in-game are upside down. Apparently it’s a known issue running the game on newer OS (How? WHY?!) but until it’s fixed I can’t really play.

I’ve been playing Call Of Duty 2 as part of taking notes about the roots of the series. Not sure if there’s enough meat for a proper essay but I will see.

I really can’t wait for Christmas break to immerse myself in something. Maybe Deus Ex.

Just finished Signalis, got the "Promise" ending. Feel pretty empty after that, it's such a good game and is further proof that games don't have to have incredible graphical fidelity or huge teams to be fantastic and look great.

I've played 20 hours of foxhole in the last week. I'm not addicted. Totally not...

That free giveaway Desolate co-op. It's like STALKER-lite mixed with Generation Zero.

A neat little early access open world action RPG called The Bloodline.

Starfield a bit, working on getting a Voyager III.

Vampire Survivors when I just want something simple to play.

Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze on Switch.

I started playing Zero Sievert again and have been thoroughly re-addicted.

Damn. this look like lots of fun! Going to add to my wish list for now.

I like how the moment-to-moment is still strategic and tense, but its not as brutal as something like tarkov. (By default when you die, you keep what you went in with)

I just started Fire Emblem: Three Houses, my first Fire Emblem game. Bit confusing to me, but so far very fun.

I continue to feed my X4 addiction. Picked up the DLC during the Thanksgiving sale. I'm on my second play, about 35 hours in. Realized I've made a lot of mistakes, but that's half the fun.

I'm playing a game called "eat and drink my childhood trauma."

Between Breathedge and call of juarez: gunslinger at the moment

Cultic

That's it. I don't have a lot of time to play with myself. Yes the joke is intentional.

On the PS5 I'm busy leveling my characters in TMNT shredder's revenge and try to complete every objective in story mode. I have 3 objective left and they're all not getting hit a single time while getting through the stage. They seem to be impossible for me, but will keep trying.

On my steam deck I'm playing dead cells. I haven't completed a single run yet but having lots of fun. Trying to time dodges and not face tanking everything is my biggest thing to do while playing it. I just love going at it at the enemies.

This week beaten Mario RPG for the first time ever. Fun game, bit short and easy. Post game though, the rematches with the bosses are really something else. I don't know yet if i want to go through all of that but who knows. Getting the 30 and 100 consistent jumps on a enemy is so hard to do. The first 10 you get much leeway to do them but after that you really need to time them. 28 is my highest yet...

End of this week i have 2 weeks off from work and i will begin playing Baldurs gate 3. Got for cheap on my xbox. Looking forward to that.

Trying Sea of Thieves for the first time. Been interesting.

Trying to replay the early ac games. After finishing ac brotherhood, tried to get revelations running on steamdeck... for an hour. The issue as no surprise was drm and ubisoft. They had an old uplay launcher burned into the game, so I had to install a newer one with proton tricks. (This video saved me)

So bit annoyed, started the game and there have been some questionable changes, some buttons are switched around, there are now two weapon wheels, hookblade feels a bit clunky, but I haven't gotten far yet.

Dunno why, but it feels a bit bloated, the parkour feels worse, and Ezio always want to jump into haybales for some reason.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Brotherhood was so damn good. Odyssey is the most recent one I've tried since and it didn't come close to Brotherhood for me.

I just finished Mario Wonder. I haven't collected all of the flower coins or topped all of the flag poles to get the Super secret ending. I'm not sure if I want to master the time trials to do that.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (5 children)

How do you find the overall quality of the game? I thought it was cute and in general feels a little easier than Mario Bros Deluxe.

Then again I'm only at the initial stages, keep getting sidetracked by other stuff.

I tried to get GTA V to work in VR with the Real mod but it looks like Take 2 has patched it out and threatened to sue the modder if they continue to update it.

I don't understand why they would do this. They don't want players revisiting the game again to play in VR? Would that be bad for business or something? I seriously don't get it.

WH40K Rogue Trader. It’s pretty good if you like that kind of thing. ‘Campaign’ bit of the campaign is significantly better that WOTR in my opinion

ULTRAKILL, the first layer of Act III is finally out!
