What have you all been playing! I’ve been playing… Not much! I’m moving states and haven’t had a lot of time to game 😢
I’ve been working through my first playthrough of Cyberpunk 2077 - it’s fairly enjoyable, I’m glad I ignored it outright until well after big patches rolled out. There’s something very satisfying about blowing up enemies through a camera.
I’ve also picked up Dwarf Fortress (Steam) for the first time. It has a lot of depth but has been fun to learn and try and figure out. I just flooded a section of my fortress by digging into an underground river.
My chill-out puzzle game has been Can of Wormholes and it’s pretty fun! It’s weird for sure… but definitely fun.
Diablo 3: Season 29 - Working on stocking up on Torment 16 bounty caches for the Avarice conquest (completing a 50,000,000 gold streak). It’s taking me longer than I anticipated, but then again, I keep getting distracted by the Visions of Enmity. I really need to start ignoring those portals.
Diablo 4: Season 2 - Snagged the Razorplate chest armor with around 15,000 Thorns and a level 925 bow, so I’ve been kicking ass and actually surviving Helltides. My current goal is reaching level 90.
No one lives under the lighthouse - This was the first time I played this game, and it was amazing. It’s been sitting in my Steam library since this past spring, and I didn’t really know a lot about it going in except that is was more or less atmospheric horror. It was not what I was expecting, and in a good way. It was way more horrifying and lightly Lovecraftian than I thought it would be, since I was expecting something more similar to Dear Esther or What Remains of Edith Finch where I just kind of walk around while learning the story, so I was pleasantly surprised when I actually had work to do lol. I thought I’d get sick of the pixel art graphics, but it held up pretty well, and I even got some nice screenshots out of it. The only parts that were relatively frustrating were two weird chase scenes, but luckily the game gave me the choice to skip them after dying so many times. I’ve read that there’s multiple endings, but I was satisfied with the one that I got (whichever one it is), since it was pretty much like a light bulb going off in my head and made sense with the story as I understood it. Parts of it felt very Amnesia-like as well, which is always a plus for me. I don’t plan on 100% it any time soon, because it’s definitely one of those games I like to finish in one go, but I think I’ll have fun whenever I do.
A bit of Slay the Spire again and a tiny bit if Spiro Remastered with my daughter.
Just got into Backpack Hero recently after someone I watch online released a video a week or two ago going back to the game now that it’s released. I kinda became a little addicted as it’s pretty much been the only PC game I’ve been playing since I got it.
Star Citizen. It’s a buggy mess as usual but it’s such a fun mess. Especially the Siege of Orison event going on right now, I’ve had some really amazing emergent gameplay moments come from it that have me very excited for the future of this game.
