I myself am 100ish hours into AC Odyssey on the Steam Deck, looking forward to getting stabby on some malakas!

    I’ve been playing Grim dawn for a while. Just finished getting to lvl 96 on a spellbinder. As much as I’d like to try Diablo 4, $70 is just too steep at the moment. Maybe when it goes on sale

      GD fills that Diablo need pretty darn well. I enjoy it more than Diablo 1-3, at any rate.

    Trying to finish my first full Darkest Dungeon run since starting in 2016. I never started the final DD level but completed everything else, but I feel I can’t start Darkest Dungeon II before completing the campaign in the first game.

    That and probably some more Cities: Skylines 🙂

      I really really wanted to like Darkest Dungeon, but either I really suck at it or there’s just too much grinding for me. I’ve gone through about 30 in-game weeks and haven’t really gotten anywhere.

    Tears Of the Kingdom! Fully went in expecting to be disappointed, but it just continues to blow me away the deeper I get into it. Truly incredible what they were able to pull off with such old hardware.

      My partner has been playing it and I’m shocked at what’s in that game. Really impressed as an onlooker

        It’s honestly outstanding. When I realized how much content was in this game compared to BOTW my jaw hit the floor! I’ve been a life long Zelda fan so it makes me so happy to see the franchise getting renewed love and excitement around it.

    This weekend is very busy but I’m sure I can squeeze in some Doom and Terraria (just realising that is a strange combo).

    Lots of Diablo 4 this weekend if I can actually get some free time. We’ll see about that, but that’s been my main time sink lately.

      I haven’t been able to get into NMS. I’m thinking of giving it yet another try, since I have PCVR (there’s that major VR update).

      But yeah, I’m deep into Tears of the Kingdom. 105 hours in, and I still haven’t beaten it.

        I may have played it a time or two.

        I enjoy the tone and tightness of the first game’s story much more. I enjoy the second game’s expanded mechanics and item variety. In terms of tone, really Fallout 2 really sets the course for the rest of the franchise. Fallout 1 ends up being this very strange outlier that never really got revisited by official games (there are some stand alone mods that capture it a lot more).

      That is so much fun. Fallout 1 was one of those games that just blew my mind when it came out, and it’s still one of my favourites.

    I picked up Hi-Fi Rush on sale about a week ago, blew through it once, and am now working on a second play through/new game plus. Super fun game. After putting it down after playing for a while I still feel like I’m doing things to a beat for a bit.

      I love rhythm games but not normally a fan of action arcade. Hi Fi rush is something special though and I think everyone should give it a chance.

      I like hifi rush alot, its a real sleeper and i like the vibe. If you are looking for more I really recommend bullets per minute. It’s a roguelike rhythm shooter with a really baller soundtrack. It’s less forgiving than hifi rush but when you get in the zone it can be really rewarding.

    I’m enjoying Far Cry 6 atm - I know people have (valid) qualms with the Unsioft copy/paste fetch quest style, but sometimes it’s nice just to switch off and shoot bad guys. And I think the main storyline and voice acting is pretty good tbh.

      I recently finished it and liked it too. The setting was more of my taste than Far Cry 5. I just love the tropical Far Cry games.

        I’m totally the opposite. I never much cared for tropical environments. I do like the Far Cry games, though. The gunplay feels good and the gameplay loop is enjoyable for a few dozen hours every couple of years. I think my biggest dislike of the series in general is the mystical hallucination bits that seem to always be present. Obviously the games aren’t realistic in general, but those moments always take me out of the game. I haven’t played 6 yet, so maybe they aren’t present.

      Even if many of Ubisoft’s quests are copy-paste, once in a while I come across one that has some neat thoughts in it, and it’s a shame a lot of people don’t find them. Games like TOTK have a much stronger balance, but that’s not easy.

    Picked up Cult of the Lamb yesterday on sale as I’ve heard nothing but good things and I’m really enjoying it so far. Told myself I’d be a kind and caring cult leader…that didn’t last long!

      CotL is such a cute and disturbing game. Quite addicting as well.

      I’m still missing two of the “No Damage Taken” Achievements. But neither my reaction time or patience is what it used to be. XD

        Yeah I didn’t know a lot about it before I started playing, was expecting something similar to Hades. It’s definitely darker than I expected but really enjoying it so far

      Gonna piggyback the retro jrpg comment here since I’m currently playing Chained Echoes. Very clean feeling, some refreshing mechanics although it does have slightly frustrating RNG at times.

      I love this game. So happy it made it to PC. I’m only about 10 hours in. The intro cutscene when Aloy jumps as a kid and lands as a young adult was such an epic moment. Enjoy your time playing that one. It’s so beautiful
