Hi everyone, hope everyone’s weekend has been good. I have been playing more New Vegas this past week. Have a great upcoming week!
Hades II had its full update, so now I’m back on it to find out what happens in the story
Samesies.
I am hopelessly addicted to Hades II. Didn’t play during early access at all, it’s been a lot of fun so far
Trying to finish up Harmony of Dissonance, started playing Metroid Fusion and Aria of Sorrow for the Metroidvania itch. I gotta hop back into Animal Crossing Wild World.
I’ve been finally playing BG3 with my brothers, over the last several weeks/months since we only get a few hours once a week if that.
We’re in act 2 and I’m really enjoying playing a light cleric. Game is fun would recommend playing with others.
Played a bunch more Persona 5 R. Did the 5th palace in a day (as per usual), almost ran out of SP against the boss which would have been a problem given the gimmick. And sure, I had like 200 SP restoring items in reserve, but I’m not going to use those, what if I need them later? I now have more money than god from running over demons in the subway and the economy lies broken at my feet. It’s also weird how the opportunity to start getting real fat stacks unlocks after the time I would have needed it last (unlocking Fortune). Sadly the game will not let me use my ill-gotten gains to buy Faith a new phone. :(
Also still playing some Warframe on the side. Gotta get and level every Kuva weapon, obviously. It’s that kind of pointless stubbornness that got me where I am today!
it’s been a hot minute since i’ve played, how’s the valkyr rework?
I don’t notice much of a difference tbh, the new meter that lets you ignore death builds up so fast that she’s basically permanently invincible. In terms of abilities, her 4 is still the main thing, 1 is still useless, 2 is a solid buff, and 3 has to be cast so often (due to how quickly you blend the effected enemies) that I only rarely use it. That said, I really dislike EDA and ETA so I can’t say how she does in more difficult content.
never did play her much myself, too weapons-platformy for my tastes, but the 1 becoming a grouping tool is an enticing change i want to try out eventally
About 90% of the way through Silksong
I just ticked from 91% to 92% myself today…thats shit is getting hard. At least I finished the “path of pain” segment for this one apparently. Now its just endurance combat thats kicking my ass.
wait where’s the path of pain?
spoiler
Up past the top of the citadel at the cradle. You go close to the far right side of the platform you fight on, then use the super jump to go up. There’s a long path up to the surface there, it goes to Nameless Town which just has a new type of passive bug you can afford to the bestiary and a memento. Tough but I dont think as tough as hollow knight? I haven’t played that since it came out so big grain of salt.
Hell yeah
I don’t think it’s half as hard as the path of pain. It’s a difficult climb up. But it isn’t path of pain difficult. There’s usually a wall to grab so if you have the piton equipped you can catch your after every jump.
Took me about 30 minutes. Now the ant queen, she kicked my ass for over 6 hours.
I have started playing Dredge. About 5h into it. Really chill fishing game with a lovcraft theme.
Doesnt really feel like a proper horror game so far but it has this whole spooky vibe so perfect for the season . Its kind of a slowburn but not bad at all. I think I will finish it next weekend.
Doing another playthrough of Wrath of the Righteous. Doing a halfling air kineticist with the Azata mythic path.
I’m back on that Blue Prince bullshit. I’m far enough in that I’m decoding whole letters written in a conlang and doing really frustrating math ciphers. I get the sense that I might be out of fun puzzles and should probably call it good.
Maybe I’ll buy Silksong already.
My D&D group wants to take a stab at playing Baldur’s Gate 3 as a team on honor mode, so I’ve been replaying that game to familiarize myself with it.
I still dig the absolute hell out of how this game plays. I’ve tried and bounced off of Divinity 1 & 2 multiple times but BG3 gets the whole “semi turn based immersive sim” feeling just right
. It’s sometimes janky and dumb, especially around surprise mechanics and party members going in and out of “combat mode”, but its got so many more options than you think it does and it makes your interactions feel really deep even though at its core the whole thing is just a tactical miniatures game.My dream RPG is something like this but set in the Warmachine/Hordes universe.
I’ve been sinking my teeth in “Nightmare Reaper” a boomer shooter with some roguelike elements (guns you can find). Also a somewhat skill tree, game is fun! My only bémol is if only I could change the variety of the combat music.
Silent Hill F
Incredible game so far, great ambience and I really enjoy the new silent hill puzzle systems.
I decided I am going to start playing the Metal Gear Solid series for the first time. Funny enough, I played all of V when it came out, having played none of the others at all prior. Also played a little bit of Death Stranding. V was a good game and got me interested in Kojima stuff. Because I wasn’t already a fan, none of the disappointment people had with that game affected me at all really. Figured now is a good time with Delta being out. Hopefully by the time I get there, they’ve remastered 4, otherwise I’ll have to see how it runs on RPCS3.
I’m anti-long game and anything over 30 - 40 hours max stops being able to justify itself to me, so it’s always a treat when I go back to really old games like this and they’re finished in like 6 - 10. They never overstay their welcome.
Hitman. I’m hitting men.
Going for the platinum. I have mastery 20 on all hitman 1 levels and I’m up to Mumbai in hitman 2.
I don’t like this map. It’s too big and sprawling.
Still working on Returnal. Finally got halfway through the game and that felt like a mission from God. Its so good and so god damn aggravating at the same time.
Playing with a friend makes it easier because you can milk them for an extra life hahaha.
Today I hate this game with the fire of 1000 suns so I doubt anyone would want to hear me scream obscenities at the tv repeatedly.
