I'm writing massive essays that no one asked for about Dark Souls.

Helldivers got the MLX commando four shot laser guided rocket launcher. It's fun. Seems like a nice side-grade to the EAT17.

Workers and Resources: Soviet Republic

It's interesting but it's so hard to get things to line up. Is there some kind of snap to grid option I haven't found. Also the tutorial popup minister of transportation keeps popping up again and again to tell me how to move my crops to the factory but they're still growing and my vehicle depot is already set up.

Got the full version of Dragon Quest XI after completing the demo. Just met Sylvando. What an icon.

I dunno why I'm suddenly on this RPG kick.

We did a 24 hour race on iRacing. It was wild with the rain.

Deus Ex! Hopefully Ill get a couple sessions in when the kid is napping

Finished with Elden Ring, for good for now I think. Picked up Cobalt Core to scratch the ever-present deck builder/roguelike itch. I keep trying Dwarf Fortress and Rimworld, but I end up bouncing off those because I get bored/frustrated setting up priorities and zones and all that just to watch things go awry because someone didn't want to build a bedroom/ bathroom/ grave.

Been looking for a 4X I can dive into, really want to try Dominions 6 while the multiplayer is still fresh and decently populated, but I have no income so I've been having to get my games off the high seas so to speak, and Dom 6 is niche enough that I haven't found any that work. Anyone have suggestions for other games in that vein?

Finished Shadow of the Erdtree.

I picked up Unicorn Overlord on discount. Haven't really played it - the few times I've had time for games I've been too sleepy for a narrative heavy strategy RPG.

Edit: I forgot I've finally gotten near the end on Tunic. Just have the final boss, and might use a guide to see the secrets if I'm still feeling like it.

Shadow of the Erdtree, finally at the last boss, though I've been taking lots of breaks to help my bf catch up.

I also got Liftoff, a fpv drone simulator. I already had a drone transmitter for my combat robots, so I got a cable to plug it into my computer and now I can practice flying fpv without constantly crashing an expensive drone while learning.

doing a more completionist playthrough of shadow of the erdtree since my first playthrough was the race against spoilers and my second playthrough was a boss fight highlight reel to show my partner after they got home from visiting friends for a few days.

I recently tried Dark Messiah of Might and Magic for the first time. It sucks ass, I love it.

Elden Ring! Made a blasphemous blade build and am now bored to tears, respeccing to an Executioner's Sword build and will pivot to meteoric sword in the DLC.

Edit: nabbed the metioric sword and went back to the base gsme, it's so much fun.

still playing Trails into Reverie. Gonna play Trails Through Daybreak next and from what I've heard it's reviewing well so that's good to hear.

Started ZZZ and it's pretty mid. Probably gonna drop it or just play it very casually since i'm playing too many gachas. Compared to Genshin and Star Rail they're really pandering to the weeb gooners with this one. The jiggle physics are turned up to 11 and there's only like two male characters lol.

i started gregtech new horizons Minecraft Modpack and can feel myself getting sucked in, it's very slow but satisfying progress

Slowly working my way up to Koga in Red. I decided to just grind and get Surge done early since the Lavander-Celadon path was my next step to grab Roland the Growlithe, gen in Mika the Vulpix, catch Dodi the Dodrio, buy Rory the Porygon, snag Fly and the Silph Scope.

The Safari Zone is about to either be quick, or a new form of purgatory.

I was playing Elden Ring, but one of my PC components went kaput so I'm waiting on an RMA Think I'm gonna start playing the fan translation of Pokemon TCG 2 for the Game Boy Color--the original game is one of my all-time favorites (absolute BANGER of a soundtrack, too), and I've been meaning to play it for a while. Also eyeing a Pikmin 2 playthrough, since I did a Pikmin 1 Best Ending run recently to avenge kid!me and really enjoyed myself--game just has impeccable vibes.

5D Chess with Multiverse Time Travel, I think I've got how to move the knights backward in time but not across dimensions yet

Balatro has made me accidentally stay up until 5am once this week. Devil game.

I wanted to play Interstellar Space Genesis last weekend, but real life had other plans for me. So, I'm going to start it this Sunday instead. It's a 4X game by a small team that has received high praise from fans of the genre. It follows in the footsteps of Master of Orion 2.

Dave the diver and tried playing Raft for the first time and I am struggling lol

I should've looked at more game play and realized it has controls that i avoid in games but

Gonna play it tomorrow with my partner and im hoping I get the hang of it with them

Just about to go back to Shadow of the Erdtree, need to get serious about making progress but I'm still holding myself to my self imposed rule of not beating the main bosses in my game until I've helped someone else beat them in co-op

Elden Ring with a friend who's new to the game, using cheatengine so that every time we find a weapon, I replace it with one from the DLC so I can try them out. Going to make the ultimate stupid quality build (all 5 combat stats at 40).

im real deep in morrowind rn. not even advancing the main quests just sooooo much to do in TR and i haven't seen half of it yet. think i'll take this legion knight through the whole nerevarine thing to say ive done it then move on to non-nerevar (random start mod) builds.

In total warhammer 3 i played a campaign as the empire and got kinda far, i was able to kill the beastmen early and weaken the orcs in middenland so that toddbringer could built up and survive after that i saw that the barrow legion attacked and took mareinburg so i got close and took it for myself and decided to got to brettonia to finish them then i sold the provinces to bretonnia and got them as an ally and all of that gave me a really strong start from with right now only drycha and vlad are the only threats to take out

but after watching a video i decided to start a new campaign as Nakai and i did really well, i took over most of the donut with only the vampirates and ellarion left but im going to kill him before i attack the dread fleet, thanks to cults and other stuff i have vassalize allariel, tyrion, Throgg and Malus and right now im working in trying to get the sisters of twilight too

Somehow ZZZ has its hooks into me. It's just light enough for me want to keep playing it. Is it good? Sort of? but it's bright and colorful and gives me fun vibes when I play it so I'll see how long I can keep up with it.

I've been working through my backlog on Steam

I finished Twin Mirror last night and today I started Kona II. I'm couple of hours in and so far it's been a little meh. Graphics are great and all but it just doesn't have the same atmosphere than the first Kona had

The homie dragged me back to Destiny, and it's Iron Banana week; so it's time to commit egregious amounts of Lightbearer-on-Lightbearer violence for the adulation of ~~Gabriel Reyes~~ Iron Lord Saladin, and godrolls of some of the sexiest weaponry (next to Old Man Drifter's) the Last City has to offer. (I'm a sucker for old-world, 'wood and gunmetal' weapon design, ESPECIALLY in post-apoc futuristic shooters.)
