Happy new year guys!😀 Just now, it hit midnight here, and it’s officially 2025. I was playing Pennon and Battle, and I realized it’s the last game I played in 2024!! That gave it a different kind of meaning. Now I’m curious, what was the last game you played in 2024?
A Short Hike
Final Fantasy XIV
Is linux a game?
Is real life a game??
Both the first game of 2024 and the last one was Medieval II: Total War.
Conquered the world with France at the start of the year, now doing the same with the Danes.
A classic :D
I haven’t played M2TW in a while. Maybe I should pick it up again for another campaign. Hmm…
It’s been almost twenty years and I still can’t find a game that gives me the same chills. I was hoping that they’d release a Medieval Remastered the same way they did for Rome Remastered, but it didn’t happen.
I hear that the 1212 mod for Attila Total War provides a more “up to date” experience for today’s standards (graphics, historical accuracy, AI, diplomacy). But I can’t fathom playing Medieval without Duke of Death.
I remember getting Medieval 1 as a Christmas present and playing all day! I didn’t actually get Medieval 2 until many years later – I was playing Rome for a long time.
I have to confess, I’m not a fan of the “Game: Remastered” trend. I love games this old partly because of the nostalgia. Re-releasing them this way erases that part of it for me – plus, I just can’t shake the “WTF, I need to re-buy a game this old?! Forget it!” feeling.
Duke of Death is iconic. I’m kind of surprised they didn’t keep it in the track list for later games.
Path of Exile 2 👍
Sea of Stars, Marvel Rivals, and Superhot VR were the three games my spouse and I played that day.
Farming Sim 22
Infinity Nikki! It’s probably my new favourite dress up game (dethroning FFXIV)
It was going to be Hogwarts legacy, but I had a flight and played xenogears on my phone
Deadlock
Gothic (2001). Still a really cool game!
Warframe. First game I’ll play in 2025 too.
Played and finished: Lisa The Joyful
Played: PoPoLoCroisIt was either noita or war thunder, was playing both last night and I forget which I was playing before midnight
I’m about halfway through Lego Lord of the Rings right now.
They really nailed the Lego game formula on that one. Truly a love letter to Peter Jackson’s films and with all the silly Lego game humor. I finally 100%'d it last year, then went right onto Lego The Hobbit (almost as good!).
