Hello everybody. Hope your weekend has been good. I have been playing more New Vegas and Stronghold Crusder remastered. Hope you all have a great week!
Letsgo create productive forces
I started playing Outer Wilds. Sent myself hurtling through space. Terrifying.
I can’t wait to play again
More Divinity Original Sin 2, going after my last achievement for 100% which is one of Sebille’s main quest ones. A little bittersweet as it’ll probably be my last playthrough unless a friend wants to do one with me, but I think I’ll try out DOS1 and see how I like it.
Dunno what I’ll do after that… I do need to finish Celeste at some point. Then I want something a little more casual, maybe that Guardians of the Galaxy game chilling in my library.
I spent the weekend playing Crusader Kings 2 with the After the End mod. It’s ck2 but set in post apocalyptic America.
I’ve now conquered most of the Empire of Cascadia. My first character found a pre-apocalyptic handgun so I’ve just had a lineage of queens challenging opponents to duels, only to just Indiana Jones them and take their land.
damn i heard the AGOT mod for ck2 is also better than ck3. Should I get ck2 now lol
The base game of CK2 is free, might as well pick it up. Imo it’s way harder to learn than CK3 though.
Hades II, lots of Hades II. Gotten several clears done so far but I’m still working towards the ultimate goal of the game:

Everyone just wants a muscle mommy to be the big spoon in the hot tub.
I mostly played Age of Mythology retold since monday it had a deal with the base game one norse god dlc and 2 new civ expansion for 50% off
One of the main changes they implemented was that they made Myth units in general stronger since i remember from my old AoM memories most (except most age 4 ones) werent the strongest vs mass human soldiers, but they are buff heroes and gave the norse a range heroe
I decided to play the chinese campain first and it was really fun, it really feel like an old AoM campaign my only problem with it is that it wasnt londer since it was 9 battles, but they were all fun (the one in the underworld was a little broken tho), I had to restart the final mission since it a Built a titan to fight the other titan but for some reason the enemy titan targeted my town first instead of my allied like i think it was supposed to, but it all went fine when i saw that instead of attacking my titan gate it ignored so i just bait him into my allies base and it all when good
also the enemy titan didnt have a lot of regeneration like prometeous in the titans campaign so i just send my air myth units into him and by the time i got my titan he was at like 1/8 and i missed my titan getting the one shot on him
The chinese civ is honestly really fun, i think it maybe my favorite for now, i have to finish the japanese campaign now
Forgot to mention i played the first battle of the japanese campaign, it was pretty fun a find units built up an army mission
There was a tanuki that healed units with tea
this all sounds like a fun experience , look at those tanukies
are china and japan new to this version or am i thinking of a different game? i only remember greek, norse, and egyptian factions
edit: nvm looks like i just never knew about the dlc lol
For AoM retold they added 2 new civilitazion the Chinese thats reworked from a civ in the hd version and the newest who are the Japanese who are original
They also added a new norse mayor god Freyr with 3 new minor gods
I forgot to post last week, but I’m finishing up Black Mesa. Finished the Earth portion last weekend and spent my time this week in Xen. It is far better than I expected, and makes the whole game worth playing. You can tell the team rebuilt it from the ground up. Unfortunately I’m getting my ass served up for dinner by the Gonarch, so progress is slow.
I felt like the Xen section took a little too long but I understand the original was pretty shit, still a 9.5 for me though.
iRacing with a league I’m part of. It’ll be our first race today!
after watching a friend play megabonk and claiming “it’s better than vampire survivors” I scoffed and said “yeah sure” they gifted it to me and now I can’t stop playing megabonk its better than vampire survivors
Some depraved demon said “try megabonk” somewhere and it’s been all-consuming
Can the music top this? https://youtu.be/dxx6fvhf5Pc
I’d argue the music is better but only because the VS style is very much not for me. I turned it off and just played my own music
How dare you, VS’s soundtrack is a masterpiece. You also made me just hop back in real quick and do a mad forest run
They were really cooking with the Castlevania DLC music as well.

Tbh I think most bullet heaven games that came after are better than Vampire Survivors because they all have more interesting movement, weapons, or mechanics. Adding a dodge, an active attack, or something small like that is significantly more interesting than the 50 characters with slight variations in VS. They built a good foundation and made bank so its not a sad story, but I’ll never play another VS round instead of pretty much anything else in the genre.
Did as much of Hollow Knight as I was up to, will come back to it for Pantheons and 112% eventually I’m sure.
Now I’m doing Noita Sun Quest attempts. I think this will take me a while because I’m rusty. When I was decent at this game I was getting PW runs fairly consistently so I got bored, but now I’m struggling just to kill Stevari. I lost a solid run (had black holes and ambrosia so I was just prepping for Alch then PWs) to Steve at the Hiisi base!
one day noita will take hold of me again, it’s not today but i can’t wait
You gotta challenge yourself, there’s always something within reach that will force you to learn the game a bit more (could be getting to the next level you haven’t seen, could be a 34 orb run)
oh no my thing was beating kolmi a couple times and then getting sidetracked forever making mods
Silksong, the end of act 3
i finished my first honour mode run of bg3 a few days ago so now i gotta find something new to play
I picked up the Suikoden II remaster; I played this several times growing up with a childhood friend and the nostalgia is strong. I’m enjoying it quite a bit but it badly needs some modernization (save points and the like are poorly managed, animations for dialogue are quite slow, etc)
that is a fantastic list of tweaks, thank you.
Epic gave away a survival crafter called Nightingale this week so I’m trying it. It’s interesting, sort of a victorian/fae aesthetic
It’s flawed but a lot of fun
Yeah, it has some interesting mechanics I haven’t seen in other survival crafters
Judgement and then some fallout 4
