Hello to my fellow Americans, hope you are making the most of your long weekend. I finished my BG3 playthrough as “The Dark Urge”. I think the Urge origin character is a very fun playthrough, and enhances the story a bit because now your character is intertwined with the main villians, rather than just some guy who happened to also be on the Nautaloid. I also used this playthrough to experiment with different playstyles, and I gotta say, having 2 paladins in your party is OP. Hope everyone is having a safe weekend

    Tactical Breach Wizards is good. Very entertaining writing, great gameplay.

    I finished Nine Sols on story mode and am running through again on standard. It took a while for combat to click but once it does it really sings - fluid, fast-paced, and when you nail your timings you are an unstoppable force of destruction.

    The plot is a tragedy of science Going Too Far that veers into cliche sometimes, but the setting is unique enough to make it interesting. It’s cool to see the authors’ interpretation of Daoism in a video game context and the music is top notch.

    I’ve been playing Black Myth Wukong. I’m really enjoying it so far. All those years of soulslike’s have trained me for this. I really really like the dodge system in this game as it heavily rewards you for doing it “perfect”. The setting and lore are absolutely amazing and the vibes are simply incredible.

    Picked up Crosscode again lea-happy

    As I remember it, super fucking polished and smooth on Steam Deck. Gonna finish it this time! In the early hours, haven’t been gaming much this week, instead read Piranesi (loved it).

    Played just a bit of Celeste today on my friend’s computer. Other than that this past week I haven’t really played anything.

    Been playing a metric ton of Parh of Exile this league, it’s the first time I’m able to do so much stuff with my builds, so I’m super satisfied.

    Got a Deadlock invite thanks to Awoo, me and my brother have both been playing it. Tbh it’s too addicting, think my brother accrued 11 hours playtime in his first two days of playing. I caught him up at like 4 AM still playing lmao. Can’t judge cause I might be doing the same if I didn’t have other things to do.

      If I still had a working PC I would absolutely be addicted as hell to that game. It looks fun and right up my alley
