What you guys playing this weekend?
Luigi’s Mansion on original GameCube hardware. Well, it’s pretty modified - BT controller board, memcard pro, EON MKII for digital video output, picoboot to load from sd, but the game processing HW is original lol.
Also, Rise of the Tomb Raider was easily the best one of those. I loved that game.
Hades II & Hades
Ghost of Yotei
It’s so good. I think it might be the most visually stunning game I’ve ever played.
The first one was good, but it didn’t hold my attention long enough. I can’t stop playing this one.
That was a fun game. I really enjoyed that one.
Got back into Stardew Valley, this time with ~300 mods and a bunch of expansions and no visible end to the timesink yet.
Putting my final touches into my STALKER: Anomaly modlist and creating the last couple of compatibility patches. I think I’ll end up at 400 mods which is a nice round number. Hope I’ll get to start my playthrough this weekend.
Will also try to get through another chapter of Alan Wake 2, I was on a replay of it when I got derailed but I do want to finish it and finally start the DLCs.
Still on Silksong, second run. So far still finding new stuff and alternative path. Dancers is still the best boss design so far.
I got a message Necesse got it’s 1.0 release. I played it about a year ago and it was rough around the edges. So I’m giving it another go this weekend.
I gave it a run on the ROG ally yesterday. The right trigger is your main button to chop, combat, etc. The only way it worked was to spam the button which was not great. I did some research and seems that with some settings this can be fixed. None the less the game does look cool. Indies are where it’s at!
Those adventure games are fun. Scratches an itch every once and while.
Attempting wrath of the righteous again. Always dip out at act 2 start. Got bubble buffs working on Linux. Need something all consuming. Hoping it’s the right time.
That one is so much more fun once your buffs last all day.
Good ol’ modded Terraria with a side of Helldivers 2.
What mods do you use in Terraria?
Maybe Tormentes Souls II or RE4 Remake.
I started a new run of Baldur’s Gate II to see if I can actually be good at it this time.
Of more recent releases, I’ve also been going through Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector and The Alters, both being very good resource management games in space.
Promise Mascot Agency
God of War 2018 after playing gow for my whole childhood, it’s interesting
Supposed to do the end game content for Expedition 33 but I’ll probably just be doing rounds of Megabonk.
Got into Expedition 33 this week. Just got to the point where the huge stuffed puppet learned to swim. Gotta say, I don’t get the hype.
I think they tried to souls-likify a JRPG. But it just feels like combat is one QTE challenge after the other. No other mechanic really matters, at least on normal mode. Also it feels like the main story, which seems fresh and intriguing, barely gets glanced over, while interpersonal relationships get a korean drama level exposition.
I’ll tag along for a little while longer because the voice acting is stellar. The rest is meh IMHO
I almost checked out around then too, it gets a lot better in the respects you criticised as well as environment design.
I’d recommend hard mode for combat once your characters feel ready to advance. It isn’t that much harder, and at least the last chunk of the game is way too easy without it.
Only the spookiest games
I started Pacific Drive today. Does that count?
Man, I wanted to like that game so bad… I just don’t think it’s for me
Working through some more Pokémon Legends Z-A, with a sprinkling of Cyberpunk 2077 here and there.
Playing some Curiosity, going to finish it this weekend hopefully
