A bit of Oxenfree II. It’s good so far. Their previous game Afterparty was a pretty limp experience IMO, but they’ve won me back. It’s been a weirdly nostalgic time and the writing is solid. It leans on much of the lore of the first title, which means the mystery isn’t so interesting this time around. But we’ll see how it goes, it might surprise me.
Alternative opinion: absolutely loved Afterparty. They went in a totally different, comedic direction with it, but I personally enjoyed it a lot. And, honestly, liked Oxenfree II even more than the first one. Yes, it lacks novelty, but makes up for it with excellent writing.
Yeah fair enough, I can see why you’d get into it. I think the humour wasn’t for me and I found the plot to be too low stakes. Art was great though.
Finished Oxenfree II, completely agree, writing was excellent. Characters are far more complex and the story was super thematically rich
The Isle (beta branch)
So much fun growing up as a Dino in a Dino eat Dino world. At the best of times it can be scary as hell.

Currently in 2.3 in FFXIV, still having so much fun with it
A bunch of ocarina of time randomizer and World of Warcraft.
AC: Odyssey. Don’t with the main quest now just need to tie up all the loose ends Ubisoft couldn’t be bothered to write into the main quest line.
Just picked up Solasta. Never played an iso game before. Looks interesting!
Enjoying the hell out of Beat Saber after sleeping on it for way too long. It almost feels like self-improvement as well, the higher difficulties are a workout and a half and with the massive amounts of custom songs available it’s not likely to get boring anytime soon.
I do wish it wasn’t mandatory to speed up the songs to get on the leaderboards, none of these tracks are improved by being played at whatever multiplier they use.
I’ve been really enjoying Halls of Torment, it’s like if Vampire Survivors and Hades had a child.
This looks dope, thank you!
If you dont mind another recommendation, Backpack Hero
If you do mind, apologies
I do not mind at all lol thank you
If you like roguelites I also enjoyed Skul and Dead Cells if you haven’t checked them out
I think i have them onbmy wishlist already!
Finally got into X4: Foundations after remapping all the controls and I’m about 300 hours down the rabbit hole total and 90 on my current save.
An Advanced Electronics and Turret Component bottleneck is crippling almost every faction preventing ship and station building.
I’m desperately trying to get my own stations producing while fighting off a Xenon invasion of the Free Families which has so far claimed 3 systems.
Nox Archaist - Wasn’t expecting much, was blown away. Definetily not for everyone, but personally I think it’s the most engaging game I’ve played this year. Surpasses even Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.And just to make it clear: this is not a shit post. I really enjoy Nox Archaist so much.
Picked up Hades again after Hades 2 was announced. It’s still fantastic. Can’t wait for the sequel.
Hades is cool, I was super addicted for some time. You might also like Nova Drift.
Diablo IV new season has started! I’m only few hours in but it’s quite fun so far. Lots of people so live events are much more full. Weirdly enough the servers seem to be more stable too. I still hadn’t had much luck with the new gimmick of putting hearts into your rings but it seems fun. The battlepass is quite interesting too. The season 0 lacked direction I feel unless you we’re really hard core - now it’s more approachable for casual market.
The Outer Worlds came up on humblebundle choice this much and I’ve just reached the second zone in the game and honestly it’s awesome. People were reviewing that it’s quite shallow and underdeveloped but I kinda like smaller feel. The story and production is entertaining - it feels like Fallout but more wackey. Some parts do feel like it could use more “RPG” though. Like the first big choice of the game didn’t feel that impactful.
Finally found time to get into Read Dead Redemption 2 and I must say it’s pretty great. Game releases in the past decade have been a conveyor belt of garbage but this one is the exception.
I don’t spend too much on games and only buy if they’re on sale.
Recently bought sleeping dogs for $2 and finished it 2 days ago. It was a 10/10 experience. Definitely suggest everyone to try it.
Other than that I’ve been playing Deep Rock Galactic.
Rock and stone !
Sleeping dogs deserves a sequel.
Also bought Sleeping Dogs in the Summer Sale and I’m playing it on my Steam Deck. I’m loving it so far.

Just started Phoenix Point today. Really itching for some fresh XCOM and I don’t want to play too much Xenonauts 2 before full release.
