Tell us what game you are currently, or recently played, greater than 6+ months old.
If the game happens to be on sale, a link would be fantastic.
Can’t comment on hope good it is yet, but I picked up Disco Elysium for $10 and have been playing that. Also Open Roller Coaster Tycoon 2
Disco Elysium is on the Playstation prime or whatever it is called. currently enjoying the game. slow and steady.
I’m replaying this one right now (more or less, I hadn’t played Final Cut before).
I know it’s too highbrow for some people, but the writing absolutely pops in this game.
-Ori and the Will of the Wisps on Steam Deck
-Entropy : Zero 2 on desktop
They’ve both been amazing, especially Entropy. Can’t believe it’s free
Control and Fallout 3.
Control is a masterclass at world building and storytelling.
Fallout 3 is as excellent as always, but even on the Steam Deck it suffers from random crashes. Save often.
I’m replaying Bug Fables, which is a kind of spiritual successor to the first two Paper Mario games. Definitely can recommend if you like that style of game!
Been making my way through Return of the Obra Dinn. It’s so different from anything I’ve played before. Really neat, though I wish there was some more help/guide info available in game on the mechanics of it. I feel like I stumble into things most of the time.
I picked up Dredge on sale a few weeks ago and got the platinum trophy recently. It’s my first platinum trophy to ever get. The game was well worth the price even if I hadn’t gotten it on sale.
Great game! Just finished it on the Steam Deck.
Now I’m starting Botanicula. Loving it so far
I haven’t had much time for games lately unfortunately but when I have found a few minutes here or there, I finally started Morrowind. I’m thinking of making a post about it soon, but it’s still an awesome game 21 years later
I’m loving “night of the dead” so much, it feels so much like pubg lite modded into a single player game (to the point I suspect it’s that or something similar), it’s got a pretty big open world with buildings that for the most part make sense, you can tell the devs put a lot of effort into making it feel cohesive even if the inside layout of some buildings doesn’t make that much sense. I’m not big on the tower defense aspect of it but it’s growing on me.
If you have a reason to and/or interest in introducing your littlest ones to video games, “king boo” is really good, mind you it’s for really small children, great as a self rewarding teaching time to learn about controlling their frustrations and it also works as a reward for good behavior. I call it the dark souls of 3 yearolds (no combat, only vibes).
Monster Sanctuary. It’s like a good mix of Legend of Zelda and Pokémon, pixel-style sidescroller with surprisingly deep lore and a lot of quirky monsters with interesting designs to collect. Lots of puzzles, different biomes, interesting abilities, upgradable equipment, an interesting story, rival characters with actual personality (and character development throughout the story) … all in all a well-made “monster collecting” adventure game.
It is also currently on sale in the Nintendo eshop, at least in Germany (5 Euro). No idea if it’s the same world wide, but 5€ are more or less the same as $5 so it is pretty cheap for a game of that size and quality.
Baldur’s Gate 3! It’s such an amazing game that I used a week of vacation time to do nothing except play that game. I’ve never done anything like that before. Forewarning, laying on the couch for a week straight doesn’t feel great physically.
Don’t really get the drive to play games much nowadays, but when I do I usually hop onto deep rock galactic or vermintide 2.
Its just so satisfying to shut off the brain and cleave through hordes of enemies with a nuke or a big sword
I just finished Batman Arkham Knight and started Breath of The Wild… So far I’m liking it!
I don’t know if I’m so noob, but I’m feeling Zelda is a bit harder at the start than Batman lol.
Finished Hitman 2 the other day, now working on the third. It’s… alright I guess. Starting to get a little boring and repetitive.
Compared to 2, 3 also feels more linear imo.
How so? Except for the final mission I guess.
If you only play it for the story, they all have the same amount of linearity. The real value is in the exploration and replayability, doing all the missions again to see what you’ve missed.
Assassins Creed: Odyssey, but wait for the sales.
Fuck yeah, I’m maybe three quarters done with that game, only the DLC left. I’ve been playing it for like a year and I’ve fully completed all of Greece, just finishing up quests. One of my favorite games at this point.
Playing through:
- New Vegas
- 13 Sentinels
- Might start on Skyward Sword on Switch, now that I’ve finished TOTK
