Playing a lot of Brotato (just got addicted) and Olli Olli World (I love me a good skateboarding game and bonus points for the styling).
I do want to put more time into You Suck at Parking. It’s a fun little puzzle driving game.
Art of Rally is also cool if I just want to relax
So I started (and finished…ish) Hollow Knight. I got the first ending and I was planning on going back for the true ending but now I’m a little out of it, I’m actually not sure I want to go back in and experience the game at its most difficult. I had a real good time, but the difficulty spike is supposed to be pretty huge and that’s not why I went to that game.
Also been playing Death Must Die which is a Hades-meets-Vampire-Survivor game. It’s in early access but it’s absolutely hitting the right spot. I’m probably going to jump off for now though, I don’t want to exhaust my time with the game before it’s out.
Finally, I’ve just picked up the poker game that everyone is currently playing (I can’t remember the name) called Baletro…maybe
And Deep Rock Galactic: Survivors because apparently I like these Auto-shooter things.
I felt exactly the same about Hollow Knight. I’m worried Silksong (whenever it comes out) will lean even more into the difficulty of late-game HK.
Now don’t get me wrong, I may yet go back to it. What I’ve read though…isn’t exactly selling it. Celeste level platforming and a bucket load of boss fights that are significantly harder than what I faced in the main story…
Im a sucker for those hard games, I’ve beaten Cuphead twice, finished Sekiro and Elden Ring…but I’m not sure I want the same things from Hollow Knight you know?
I was bully on it from the demo. But it’s gotten old pretty fast. It has an item saturation problem and lack of deck forging tools, I think. When I learned the decks you unlock aren’t anything crazy or fun, just regular decks with new start conditions, I lost a lot of steam. Not leaving it behind, but my drive to play it isn’t as high.
Finally picked up Dead Cells from the current sale. I play a lot of roguelikes/lites but never been much into Castlevania type stuff so started out skeptical. But a few hours into it I find myself enjoying it more and more. It feels good to get better at it which is a key ingredient for great games.
The game is perfect for the deck, gentle on the battery, works great at the screen resolution, excellent controller support.
Ocarina of Time, for the very first time, via Ship of Harkinian. Just completed the Forest Temple and having a great time! And since it’s Linux native it plays exceptionally well.
Oh that’s cool, I hadn’t heard of that project before.
I’ve played Ocarina of Time, but never played through Majora’s Mask. I’m really interested to try that when they come out with support for it.
I just finished another Cyberpunk game called Sanibi, I highly recommend it, it’s freaking amazing. I don’t know which other cyberpunk game I can play with great stories (already done Katana Zero) so I bought Celeste but I’m almost at the top of the mountain already.
So I continued my play through of BGIII and I had a blast!
If you’re searching for a cyberpunk game with good story, I can highly recommend Cloudpunk!
