Have you been spending hours trying to pass a level? Or maybe you are completely addicted to a newly bought game. Do you have a question about a game or would like to share something else? In the Weekly Discussion Thread, you can do it all!
Please don’t forget to use the spoiler tag as soon as you start talking about a storyline.
Palword. Good brain dead fun.
It’s clucky building needs work but the world is cool and the pals hilarious.
Played hard for a couple weeks but got bored kinda quick. Feel like I wish there were, idk, more things to do or story to unfold.
Was playing in a buddy’s server initially so maybe part of losing interest kinda quick was not wanting to run all the early game again solo.
Yep, I get that. The poorly functioning building, pathfinding issues for pals in base and the lack of endgame makes it that we parked it for now and will circle back when the devs had time to figure out their next moves, and if they don’t end up escaping to some tropical island with their earnings it will be fun in a year.
Since release I’ve been playing BG3 every week with a friend and we finally beat the game on Saturday. Great game, but man we’ve been playing it for a long time.
Picked up Viewfinder yesterday. Fun little indie puzzler. Very cool concept, don’t know how much I care about the plot or anything but it’s got some of the same trippy fun as Superliminal.
Oh, and I played a couple hours of Against the Storm and have been hesitant to pick it up again because I’m pretty sure it’s going to be problematic for my already busy schedule.
Guardians of the galaxy currently
Me too, but I’m not too impressed. I mean it looks great and all, but the gameplay is a bit monotonous. Maybe it caters more to fans who actually care about the story and characters.
So I’m throwing some Deep Rock Galactic missions into the mix. I’ve met a player in their first ever mission and tagged along to help out a bit and now we’re playing a lot together and it’s great fun.
Thats a wholesome story, I’ll have to look into that game. Yeah I’m enjoying it more as an interactive movie.
It was BG3 still with Palworld, but enough of my friends started playing and we made a dedicated private server. It’s now consuming me. I’m sure the obsession with subside in a bit, but right now it’s just dumb fun. Currently riding around on a panda mount duel weilding rocket launches and just laying everything to waste.
GTA V offline, of all things. Haven’t played it in years and found out its carpool grew quite a lot, matching the forza games and currently scratching my itch for an offline open world car game with a crapton of cars.
I have been espousing its merits so much that I surely look like a shill but check out Motor Town as a low poly open world driving game that centers on supply chains of deliveries and basically GTA side job driving quests fleshed out to an entire genre with pizza delivery on mopeds, box vans delivering packages, garbage trucks, taxi drivers delivering urgent passengers as fast as possible, tow truck jobs and tractor trailer jobs etc….
The physics and driving feel are superb (very realistic unlike GTA V not that GTA V’s driving isn’t a blast), and there is a diversity of vehicles from a wide variety of sports cars to pretty much any type of work vehicle you can think of. You can tweak, tune and engine swap to turn basically any of them into a fire breathing metal box that transports you as fast as possible to utter ruin. You can play multiplayer collaborating with others on deliveries or just play singleplayer.
It’s early access but it’s got a demo so check it out! If you are anything like me you will throw your fists in the air and angrily shout why nobody has made a game like this for you before lol when you try it. I know it doesn’t look like a racing game but you can absolutely play everything in the game except bus driving like a racing game (and you can just have AI do the bus driving if you want to do bus stuff).
Tooling along in a semi with a trailer at 80mph on a windy country road and plowing cars out of the way like soccer balls for fun has never felt so good in a video game.
