I forgot to make a thread last week but oh well. I have been playing a new Elden Ring character. I originally thought I was gonna try to get to the DLC as fast as possible but I then decided “nah” and have played through most of the game, but have finally arrived in the DLC and have respec’d my build for Rellana’s twin swords. Anyway, hope everyone has had a good week

Doing my NG1 victory lap in Elden Ring, and learning to fly fpv drones with Liftoff.
Still enjoying Unicorn Overlord! Just making little bits of progress here and there.
I also started playing Dome Keeper. I think I like the mining portions a lot better than the tower defense bits. Yes, I played Motherload a lot more than the little tower defense flash games lol
Still playing Trails into Reverie and just cracked 105 hours lol. Should be able to finish it up this week.
I picked up a bunch of games on the recent PSN sale. Some boomer shooters Prodeus, Project Warlock, Metal: Hellsinger. Bought Bug Fables. Got the The Great Ace Attorney: Adventures too. Probably gonna start the original AA trilogy just in time for the Edgeworth collection.
I was getting my ass beat by Fear & Hunger earlier, might get back to that this evening. It’s really interesting so far even if the learning curve is a bit too steep for my liking.
Oh, that’s soon on my list! How are you liking it overall, is the learning curve actively pushing you away from it, or is it interesting enough that it feels rewarding to press on? Might not want to move to another brutal game right after I finish Elden Ring, haha.
I just picked it up and haven’t gotten very far in at all so I can’t really make any judgement in terms of how rewarding it actually is. I’m mostly in it because the combat is kinda cool and, call me sick but I really want to find out just how depraved the game gets. It’s very CW: everything grimdark fantasy with sex, violence, dismemberment, body horror, or some fusion thereof so its not for everyone. If you do play it I reccomend giving the starter guide on steam a read, it got me from dying in three minutes to dying in ten minutes lol.
Thanks for the heads-up! I’m fine with CW stuff, but I don’t like it when it’s handled poorly, for cheap shock valuw, sounds like it’s not great with that but not bad either. Thanks!
Just finished the Elden Ring DLC last night, one day short of a month since release.
My original plan was just to get a character to the DLC, then finish the DLC and quit. But I ended up 100% clearing my save (killed every boss in base game + DLC), and now I’m going to get the last 3 Steam achievements in my NG+.
Just played a bit of Helldivers 2 after a couple months hiatus. Also played a bit of Still Wakes the Deep and Nobody Wants to Die.
how is helldivers holding up? I was really hyped for it but none of my friends wanted to play it
I’m enjoying it! I got it about 2 weeks after launch. Still some issues, patches working things out, weird balance stuff, but the gameplay loop is very fun. DM if you pick it up, i’m on steam.
I wanted to play some games, but instead, I sat down and wrote the foundation of my setting’s lore. It was just a short historical write-up, and I did it in a bit over 2 hours. At least it’s a first draft.
elder scrolls online. it’s the only mmo i have actually enjoyed. ive been trading a lot and making a ton of gold
Elden Ring with a friend who’s new to the series in coop, having a pretty good time. I’m using a mod to cheat so that every time I get a new weapon drop I add a random weapon from the DLC instead. The stat requirements are so high lol this was a bad idea.
Balatro. I love the ghost deck, I love gambling, delete all jokers and fuck myself over for a 1:20 chance something good happens? Don’t mind if I do!
Death Must Die and the Vampire Survivors Amogus DLC. DMD is another Vampire-like with aiming. I don’t want to aim! I just want to vibe! Also procedurally generated infinite map which imo is lame. The Amogus DLC meanwhile really suffers from being best played on the one new map, which gets old pretty quick. Some neat ideas, probably worth the $2.50.
i’ve started viewfinder, nice puzzler, will probably finish it tomorrow. i’m also gonna play rain world for the first time.
I finished my first HK rando run yesterday, clocking in at 5h 46m. Feels slow, I’m sure I can improve that time. It didn’t help that this seed was stingy with giving me claw. It’s such an essential early game traversal item that it threw me off not having it. OTOH I’m surprised where I can get without it.
Trying to close out Shadow of the Erdtree! Loved Elden Ring overall, but it definitely had more than its fair share of bullshit bosses and generally unfun segments, a game with a ton of highs, and some sour lows. I think I like Sekiro more still, as a pound for pound package.
Soon, I will move onto Fear & Hunger, debating getting a censorship patch or not, or maybe if Fallout: London is out before I finish Elden Ring I will go for that, we will see.
I’m late, but I started playing Fire Emblem Blazing Blade and I have been enjoying it so far. It’s a bit dated and rough for things like dialogue, but for a 2003 GBA game I’m impressed with the level of detail in the animations and the art that appears sometimes when characters are talking. I was surprised that they could make it look as good as it does with how many pixels are on screen.
The GBA Fire Emblem games are delightful. Binding Blade (the Japan-only one) is probably the most fiddly and annoying of the three, but they’re all a pretty great time!
Probably more of my pant-less run of Disco Elysium
Also I have an original XBox that is modded. There’s a hard drive inside with a bunch of “legal game backups” and other useful things. I was wondering if I can pull it out, hook it up to a PC externally and pull those files off the drive without any extra steps? Then I could gut the console and possibly use it as a custom mini PC case 🤔
Not really anything because my desktop is dying but on the 22nd of August I am getting a new one. Going from a gtx 980 to an rtx 4060
rtx 4060
Best way to play Stardew Valley
Are you assembling it? The 4060 is rather poor value within its class, but if you got a good deal on a prebuilt, that’s something else entirely.
