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.
Just finished the main story of Pikmin 4, now working on the post game content. Also played a little bit of Cassette Beasts with the gf and it's an interesting game, pretty fun for the couple hours I played it.
I spent more time gaming this month than any other this year and finished NO games. That’s what I get for devoting equal time to three big time-suckers.
I’m nearing the final act of Dragon Quest V on the DS. Mixed feelings but overall enjoying it. Coming straight from Chrono Trigger to anything else in that era is just unfair though.
I’m taking my time with Elden Ring and loving it. I love entering a new area and getting a stunning vista to take it all in. It’s a beautiful game.
Playing Battlebit about once or twice a week with some friends. It’s perfect for my friend group.
Been playing a lot of Risk of Rain 2 again. I still don't have the DLC but I'ma buy it soon
Almost done with Pokémon Shining Pearl.. which has not been as bad as I expected. I mainly went for it to play with my 'mons only compatible with BDSP.
Just grinding the Grand Underground for mysterious shards now to catch all the legendaries in Ramanas Park.
I am waiting for Baldurs Gate 3 to release and in the meantime I was just staring at my screen buuuut just got the word that both of the Zelda Oracle games are now on Switch Online or whatever it is called, so that is how I will spend my weekend:))
The Mass Effect trilogy and simultaneously making a guide in Notion containing who to bring for unique dialogue, collectibles and instructions if they're not given in game.
I don't typically play much video games but this time I decided to start up an old one that I never finished. Tenchu fatal shadows. I'm also trying to play through Evo search for Eden
I've started playing Techtonica, or if you prefer, "underground satisfactory". One interesting mechanic is that research creates a sort of bulky waste product and you have to find a place for it.
Just bought XCOM 2 on sale and I'm overwhelmed by the difficulty but can't stop playing
Are you playing the vanilla game or war of the chosen?
I love that game so much.
I bought the collector's edition, which I think includes all the DLCs
Just wait til you try the long war mod, then you’ll know pain lol
Finally got around to playing Vermintide 2. Holy crap, I LOVE this game. Me and my girlfriend have been playing it, trying out all the classes and weapons. It is amazing how much build diversity there is in Vermintide.
Still just playing Team Fortress 2. This is how it usually goes with me; I pick one or two games at a time and play em into the ground. Relearning how to play Scout, which I was never very good at to begin with. Takes a lot of twitchy reflexes and quick reaction time, even moreso than the other classes except perhaps Sniper when flick-shotting.
I've been playing Neon White for a few days, it's been in my backlog for a while haha. I had a lot of fun replaying levels to get an Ace & gifts. I'm currently at chapter 7. The story segments are cringy, but that's part of its charm.
Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 Remix, and experiencing extreme levels of nostalgia. My goal is to play through every HD Remix and reexperience the joys of my childhood before finally seeing what Kingdom Hearts 3 is about.
I'm shuffling around a couple of games, when I get tired of one I go to the next, and so on until I hopefully beat them all. The current one is Monster Hunter: World, followed by Desperados 3 and TLoZ: BotW.
just redownloaded fallout 4 with around 250 mods it's just bonkers to me what modders are doing with that game
Trying to beat Tails of Iron on the hardest difficulty. The game was fun and somewhat challenging on normal and I did 100% it. The hardest difficulty feels random and just unfair at times and honestly isn't very fun to play. But I'm determined and have reached the last area, so hopefully I'll succeeded this weekend.
Songs of Syx
Trying to get through all the ffxiv expansions!
Been dabbling in a lot of games lately. Battlebit has been taking most of my game time for the last few weeks. Is it just me, or have servers been getting laggier?
On the single-player side, I've been slowly making my way through Asterigos, which is a Zelda-like from last year. Enjoyable combat, gorgeous settings, but I can't help being reminded of a post on r/truegaming about how bad writing can ruin a game. All of the dialog feels way too modern for its own good (which isn't helped by the "aspiring voice actor" grade acting), and most of the plot points have been boring or predictable.
I also have a guilty pleasure in f2p trash like Smash Legends and Flash Party. Judge me all you want.
I suckered myself into another Hollow Knight playthrough, so that's been my week. All I've got left are the round-2 dream bosses, and the dreamers themselves.
Not sure what I wanna pick up next. Pikmin 1&2 before 4? I never actually played 2. Persona 5: Strikers? God of War 2018? Final Fantasy 7 Remake? Horizon: Zero Dawn? Finish Hyrule Warrior: Age of Calamity?
Playing Factorio for the second time, now enabling enemies. Really fun game
I used £35 of Microsoft Rewards points and picked up Remnant 2 on whim. Didn't play the first one but I'm really enjoying this so far.
I'm considering modding my Stardew Valley game yet again. Haven't maxed out all the things, tedium is creeping in.
