I'm playing Death Stranding. I've been waiting some years and I'm finally giving it a go.
It have many similarities with MGSV which is good. It feels like a well made game.
It's very particular in its style and pacing. I liked it at first, but wasn't able to stick to it. I'll have to give it another go at some point.
Deliver At All Costs - fun game, but I swear the plot is just an excuse to feature those wonderful destruction mechanics.
Robocop - Actually not bad! I haven"t seen or played anything Robocop related in 30ish years, but I'll be damned if this game doesn't make you feel exactly like him ( for better or worse )
Pacific Drive - finally managed to finish this one after starting and abandoning it twice because it's just terrifying to me. ( I just had to start it again after reading Roadside Picnic and thinking "hey, this reads familiar" ). It's still terrifying, but absolutely great game.
Now I'm playing Kingdoms&Castles and Starbound again to calm the fuck down.
Deliver at all costs is pretty hilarious all round, really. I'm enjoying it on the Deck.
Robocop was a cool game, as a fan of the first film (AND ONLY THE FIRST FILM). I played that earlier in the year. I need to try it again in VR now I've upgraded my hardware. It choked hard on my old graphics card.
RoboCop: Rogue City took me by surprise. I was expecting a linear shooting gallery type thing but the game gives you some surprising levels of freedom to explore around. Much more immersive than I thought it would be.
Pacific Drive is so fantastic. I love the new endless mode they added. One of the best soundtracks in gaming.
Suicide Squad. Completed the main story. In order to 100% you only need to grind the original post-game, but I'm playing each season now for the tiny droplet of story each has.
I just finished Dark Souls 1/2/3 100%, so as a pallet cleanser, I'm back to metroidvanias with Dust.
Been playing Ori and the Will of the Wisps. Just completed Blind Forest and this seems like a great sequel so far. :)
Finished playing through Atomic Heart, and because of that wanted to play a game that was, you know, actually fun instead of a miserable slog, so I've been playing Crab Champions and playing the original BioShock again for the millionth time. Sometimes Sea of Thieves.
Picked up Star of Providence this past weekend and I'm hooked, the pause menu music has been looping in my head nonstop since
I've been trying out the Half Sword demo recently and yep, it's medieval combat QWOP. Very fun tho, in spite of my poor framerate.
Other than that I've been setting up maps and stuff for a DND one shot I've been planning to run. Will be fun to see how that pans out.
So, I'm thinking of starting, for the third time, Witcher 3. I liked it the second time I tried it but there was something, off about the game.... I think it's time for another try at it.
Ffxiv since the relic weapon stuff is out. Getting pretty far in that grind.
Also replaying symphony of the night. Just been in the mood for it. Haven't really been playing anything new lately. Deltarune chapter 3 & 4 are out and I'll start playing them tonight, but I'm at work for the time being sadly.
Just started playing Splitgate 2! Didn't really pay too much attention when it got announced, but I saw it was live last night and gave it a try.
As a long time Halo/Arena Shooter fan, this game really scratches a certain itch. The gameplay is crisp, the art direction is fun, and I had a blast. Now I just need to get better at using my portals in game...
Something that stood out to me is that the install (at least on Xbox) was only 17gb! After so many gigantic games, it's nice to have one with a manageable file size.
I finished my second playthrough of Drova - Forsaken Kin (wanted to see both of the camps + experience the new content added with the last patch) somewhat recently and it gave me the itch to go back and replay the first two games from the Gothic series. I'm already done with Night of the Raven and making my way through the first game now. Getting them to run smoothly on Linux was a bit of a process but other than that they still hold up incredibly well, at least in my incredibly biased view.
Playing Core Keeper with no wiki. Having a blast, didn’t realize how much content the game has now. I need to play without a wiki more often. Much more fun.
Just got back on PlanetCrafter with my mate.
We are having a blast on the Moons update !
I actually went back to give star citizen a shot since they added these "flight school" type missions that actually pay pretty well. It's a chill experience to just pop on after work and do like 6-8 of them since they only take a few minutes each and then log off.
Other than that I found this game hard time 3 that is absolutely unhinged madness. It's a janky messy game, but it's fun chaos to mess with for a bit. It's free on mobile, but I bought it on steam. It already has a horrendous camera and dealing with that on mobile is just asking for an aneurysm.
Core Keeper with my gf and Children of Morta/PUBG casuals with a friend. A bit of PAYDAY 3 with a group.
Shotgun Cop Man. Short sweet and simple from the people that made My Friend Pedro. The movement system and level design feels pretty sublime when you get in a good flow. And I just discovered there's Steam Workshop levels!
THERE'S SO MUCH GAMES!!
I've played some old Silver Box Dungeons and Dragons games (Heroes of the Lance, Dragons of Flame and Shadow Sorcerer) I got from a GOG promotion who knows how long ago. Stuff from 1988-1990. My god, those games suck HARD. Granted, PCs didn't have much in terms of "good real time action games", but those just feel awful from start to finish. The fact that increasing cycles or adding frameskips in DOSBox doesn't speed up the games doesn't help, either.
Shadow Sorcerer isn't as bad as the previous 2, no longer being a side scroller and being real time tactics, but it doesn't quite cut it.
Monster Hunter Wilds, and my friend and I play the Outlast Trials together. I haven't gotten far in MH, but I'm really enjoying it.
Deadlock, and too much of it at that.
In PoE 1 new league waiting room (at last!), drops 6/13
Moonstone Island at the moment. And Baldurs Gate 3 because cross-play finally lets me party up with my husband.
Final Fantasy Tactics on my RG34XX and Repo almost nightly with the buds
Abiotic Factor - I'm close to reaching the end
I'm still looking for a game for the weekend. I'm thinking of something with exploration, management and maybe first-person.
Sounds like Satisfactory might be what you're looking for.
