Morrowind and Outer Worlds

A bit of 'Death Road to Canada' lately--basically the oregon trail but in a zombie apocalypse and everything is randomized/procedurally generated. High replay-value up there with The Binding of Isaac (not quite that good, but it's close). Supports split screen co-op. Banger retro soundtrack. Witty. Do recommend.

I've been cleaning though some games that I had only partially completed in anticipation that I will need more hard drive space come september. Finished the dlcs for both Spiderman and Horizon zero dawn which I quite enjoyed, and now I'm playing far cry 6 which is okay but definitely not living up to it's own potential.

Mechabellum. Nothing else.

Autobattler with mechs. Very lively atm and you get a game in a minute easily. Super well executed game, but it is in early access and definitely has jank when it comes to user experience.

Would 100% recommend.

I've only been able to get a few hours into TOTK due to being a "responsible" adult with no free time, but I'll keep churning away at it half an hour here and there.

Took me over a year to finish BOTW to a reasonable degree, I imagine TOTK will keep be going for the foreseeable future.

Still trucking away at Tears of the Kingdom. Looking forward to Final Fantasy XVI in a few days! The demo was amazing.

Horizon Forbidden West. Got the expansion and wanted to go through the main story again before jumping into it.

poly bridge 3! very chill but still stimulating game where you get a variety of maps and scenarios to build bridges in. i did have to watch two hours of bridge building tutorials because my knowledge of physics is abysmal but if you passed a physics course in high school i doubt it’s nearly as challenging.

I'm playing Pokémon Yellow on my SteamDeck (via RetroArch). The childhood nostalgia I'm experiencing is heart-warming. :)

This week, a little Citizen Sleeper, a little of a Doom wad called Lost Civilization and No Man's Sky on Switch.

I'm going through the Street Figher 6 World Tour Mode and am near the end I think. No idea how much I'll play it afterward. Maybe I'll try out some stuff in the Battle Hub, like the Arcade Mode or the different training modes, to actually learn some stuff.

I'm mostly finished with The Cult of the Lamb - just doing boss rushes and minor cult duties for fun and I have also been playing McPixel 3. I fired up The Binding of Isaac for a quick run, too.

Cyberpunk - I like it but it's still buggy to the point of having to reload at times. The main story is absurdly predictable and short, barely got into it and I'm at the point of no return. Maybe the conclusion will save it. Replayability is low due to all the unskippable pseudo cutscenes. Combat is meh. So far a 7/10 game

F1 23 - finally a good F1 game

I've been enjoying the Evercade Piko Collection 3 cart recently. When new carts come out I like to try out every game and go in-depth on a least a couple games so I have a reason to come back to it later after there's a new shiny out.

So I've been playing and streaming 40 Winks (I'm about halfway through now), enjoying some Radikal Bikers, and loving to hate the hilariously bad Sword of Sodan.

Battlebit Remastered

Like 3-4 people put together a better Battlefield game than DICE ever did, with up to 127v127 fights, community servers on top of official quickplay, and a $15 pricetag. It's insanely good and this shit doesn't even feel like it's in early access.

I've been playing Ace Combat 7. It has been exhilarating!

Just finished playing the Lies of P demo. Almost rage quit on the last boss but finally beat it this morning. Really enjoyed the demo, very Bloodborne-esque and now looking forward to the full game release.

Dragon Age: Origins

I remember playing a little bit of Inquisition years ago, but I never got very far. I felt like playing a somewhat old school RPG and I know this game is held in high regard so I'm giving it a shot. So far it seems pretty good but I've only put a couple of hours in.

Also playing Enlisted.

I'm playing Vampyr again! I had already played it up to a certain point but never finished it. Recently I finished Tchia and felt like coming back to Vampyr, because I really like most of it (some details irritate me, like most of the regular patients in the hospital and all of the freshly spilled enemy-blood not showing up in your "blood detection" vision).

Oh and in addition, I started dabbling in this super eerie and janky MMO called Animyst.

I've been playing CDDA for a few days now, and you know what? This game is amazing in all aspects (except for UI and graphics). It's hard enough, sometimes scary, and very interesting in general. Highly recommended! (And it's free)

@The_Hunted_One I'm finishing the second game of the Spyro Reignited Trilogy. 🔥 🐲

Warframe! Super fun.

Disco Elysium Final Cut. Went into it almost completely blind and I'm really into it so far.

Vintage Story! It started as a type of Minecraft mod, but was remade as a standalone game. It has a big emphasis on crafting and working your way up the tech tree manually by increasing the tools available to you. Food can be hard to come by in the beginning. The overall story also has a sort-of post-apocalyptic, lovecraftian vibe. Only available on their website, but it's a ton of fun!

Lost Ark

I've enjoyed it thus far.

I am nearly finishing Breath of The Wild, using CEMU instead of using my Switch (which my gf is using to play BOTW and Pokemon Violet), and I am playing Football Manager 2007 for a bit of nostalgia.

I will then finish Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night which is a great metroidvania, for those who loved Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (because it's the same producer, Koji Igarashi).

I have rediscovered Titanfall 2 and am playing using Northstar. very fun

I'm currently playing Soul nomad and the world eaters.

It's pretty good so far, although i might have overleveled a bit, but i feel like that's normal with games from NIS.

played through the Lies of P demo for the second time, feels like a mix of Bloodborne with a dash of Sekiro in the posture system. super generous demo as well, lots to chew on.
