Obduction. By Cyan, the studio that made he Myst series. It's an adventure game with intricate puzzles, and it's been blowing my mind for the last few days.

Always playing Kenshi. Just can't put it down.

Also just reinstalled Seven Kingdoms AA for the 100th time. Still one of my favourite games.

BattleBit and Fifa23

Pokemon Crystal Clear! It's a Crystal romhack that adds in a fuckton of QoL changes and customization. Currently up to 1248 soft-resets, waiting for a shiny Snorlax. Also had to defeat him 250 times to get a chain going that helps with the odds of getting a shiny.

EDIT: Got my shiny Snorlax! Named her Blueberry. c: Strength, Belly Drum, Amnesia, and Defense Curl while holding Leftovers is one hell of an effective moveset.

I picked up 2 copies of Helldivers for me and my partner during the steam sale. Game is great fun and runs smoothly on steam deck. Totally worth $5.

Been playing a couple different things, when I have time and energy after work. Occasional heist in Payday 2 to get back into it before 3 comes out. Finally got a switch, so starting to check out breath of the wild and super mario oddessy as well.

Playing The Fractured But Whole for almost a month now, it's a pretty enjoyable experience and it feels just like playing an episode of the show, liking it a lot so far.

Actually finished both my current games and a freebie.

Luigi's Mansion 3 started great but its pacing feels bizarre by the end. The floors started feeling pretty long and then you have two boss only flaws in a row, then a good floor followed by two more boss floors. Maybe busting out so many variations hurt it be size the ordinary floors always felt the most enjoyable.

Tunic started off enjoyable but the gameplay never hit and the last secret I did made me angry with how it was presented.

Just wrapped up getting gold on every license in GT7 last night. Looking at the rest of the trophies and aiming for my first platinum.

Have put a fair few hours into Space Haven, but think I may have reached the end of the playable content I enjoy for now. Maybe I need to do a pirate run…

I've been playing Exoprimal. I definitely wouldn't have paid $60 for it, but it's actually pretty fun - even though it's primarily PVE, it really scratches the role-based hero gameplay I wanted out of Overwatch's smoking wreck. In fact, keeping the shift primarily away from PVP (usually until endgame of each round) makes it so if you're getting bodied by a much better team, you still get to play before having your group inefficiencies exposed at the end. That's much better than an entire match being miserable with constant respawning.

I’m all into TOEM at the moment. Cute little game!

[–] NukeminHerttua@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 years ago

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.

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.

[–] spaceguy@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Amazing combination.

I have to start another play through of Bloodborne.

[–] thekidxp@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

Lots of sf6, getting ready for my trip to Evo.

[–] Fireworks@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Been playing a lot of vampire survivors this week, it's quite relaxing after a long work day. But it's pikmin 4 day now, that'll be my whole weekend.

Currently trying to get through FFXVI, but there are times it feels like a slog. Am in the midst of one if these low points right now.

As for what I’ll be playing, my StepmaniaX compact machine shows up tomorrow, so I’ll have that to assemble and play.
