PC Gaming

I finally started playing Stardew Valley more than 15 minutes in the dungeon every once in a blue moon and questioning why the fuck I never actually played it before in all this time (I have had it since first available on Steam). It's everything I've ever wanted in this kind of game since playing the first Harvest Moon.

Plus it has a mod that makes everyone furry. :3

The Finals - always

Slay the Spire

Coral Island

Very different vibes, all bangers

Previously was playing through all of Mech Warrior 5 Mercs. Lately though its been many hours on Mudrunners with the mods and DLC. Its a real challenge in some areas. Had to use the boom grappler extended to one aide to stop truck tipping over around the side of the canted narrow mountain roads.

Recently picked up Enshrouded and giving that a go. Thinking of checking out the new update to No Man's Sky but haven't redownloaded it yet.

I was worried the first hour or two of Enshrouded I wouldn't like it, felt very similar to Ark and Grounded, which I wasn't much of a fan of due to the progression of those games moving at a snails pace and being brutalized by most enemies early on. But I'm happy to say I haven't felt the same disappointment from Enshrouded, sitting around 10-ish hours in. My character looks like a hobo dressed in whatever trash they could find hitting enemies with a crooked stick, but the combat feels pretty fun (instead of brutal) and there's interesting loot all over to keep the carrot and stick centers of my brain engaged. "Oh look, a slightly more interesting crooked stick!"

I like it so far.

You should check out !patientgamers@sh.itjust.works, I do a post like this every week and it tends to get decent interaction every time.

Currently Vintage Story, BallisticNG and Deadlock. No one game is currently holding a monopoly on my attention. All very good games, but it does feel a bit like I'm just in a holding pattern waiting for Silksong. It was easier to wait without an official release date xD

Currently, Hollow Knight, since Silksong finally comes out next week. Before that, a split between Kerbal Space Program and Nine Sols.

Clone Hero! I missed how much fun Guitar Hero was

I'm very deep into a full Rimworld playthrough with the new DLC. Being able to build a grav ship and hop around the world has opened it up so much that I'll probably be on this for a while yet.

Obligatory weird Rimworld storytime: I'm currently super invested in this one character who was a dirt mole kid that some colony guests just left behind. We took her in because why not, and she turned out to be a pretty good melee scrapper with a penchant for losing body parts. No worries, we have bionics, we can rebuild her. So a bionic eye, an arm and a couple of new legs later, she gets her nose shot off by a turret. At the same moment some vampires arrive and want to have a meeting in our spaceship, and offer to make someone a vampire in return. So now I'm pretty sure immortal noseless cyborg vampire girl is going to end up leading the whole colony but I really want to see where this goes. The current leader is the last OG colonist still alive, but she's currently ruling from hospital because a lancer blew the spine right out of her body so her effectiveness is limited until I can source a new spine.

Grim dawn for nostalgia. Enjoying the new classes and dealing lightning, fire and ice damage.

Hades 2 Death Stranding 2 Overwatch 2

And to keep with the theme, thinking about checking out Grounded 2 next week.

I've been working through my endless backlog.

I finished Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. It is a masterpiece.

I bought the Sniper Elite Humble Bundle that came with games 1 through 5. I have played through 1 to 4 already. It makes me miss games that can be finished in 20 hours instead of the endless grinds every game expects now. I also miss when Nazis were the evil bad guys.

I'm also playing through Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth. This one is set in Hawaii which is a coincidence since I've also just finished Kitchen Sync: Aloha!, a cooking game set in Hawaii.

ive been boring and pretty much only playing hypixel skyblock, basically an mmorpg lol. some mario party with my girlfriend too

I've been playing No Man's Sky lately. They just put out an update that let's you build a spaceship that also functions as a base. I'm only just now getting into the game and it came at a perfect time for me because I'm just now getting the point that I need a house to store stuff and I haven't found a planet that I love. Now I don't have to because I can live in a ship built just for me!

Just me and my antlered ewok exploring the black.

Clair Obscura, because I enjoy depression.

sorry but I have been a dillatant lately while I install the smallest games from the great on steamdeck filter of steam. One funny note was I had hunter stories and found it ultimately relied to much on rng and did not let me build up enough from things just made available. I think they should have had an option to buy normal eggs maybe level gating the type and then left the rng for rare powered up types. Anyway booted that out and just started palworld and wow is that ever the opposite. Does not explain stuff much at all whereas monster hunter stories was basically on rails. eventually I will get to the witcher at which point I likely will have to start deciding what stuff I want to take off if im to get anything larger on it.

EDITED - ooh. forgot to mention one stand out. nino kuni II revenant kingdom. Im playing each thing a bit and then putting on a new game but nino kuni had this very sorta fast casual fighting style that reminds me a lot of kindom hearts and I had a hard time stopping. Will likely be the game I binge once im good with what I have on the deck.

Skyrim, next to my wife who is experiencing it for the first time. And OSRS because always

I've been replaying Final Fantasy 9, but this time on my phone with Duckstation and a BSP-D8 controller

I’ve been playing Against the Storm (just reforged the gold seal), 7 days to die, and lately Fields of Mistria. Occasionally I go back to Enshrouded, Palworld and Two Point Museum. And I still haven’t finished Baldurs Gate 3, every time I take a break, I have an urge to start anew instead of continuing an old save.

Infra. You play as a structural analyst sent in to document damages on infrastructure that was being neglected due to a corrupt governor.

Technically a walking sim, but plenty of puzzles to solve and “mazes” to navigate. The game offers no minimap or objective list. No HUD whatsoever. It’s just you and one action button.

Each area is exquisitely detailed for being a 9-year-old game and visually holds up better than I expected. If you ever wanted to know what it was like to explore abandoned infrastructure, this one’s for you.

I was playing FF7 rebirth ....got about 60 hours in and Im having trouble beating the game. Its just so boring with the sidequests. And the map is insanely big with nothing but a couple of monsters. They definitely padded out the game. Its not a bad game and it has its moments.

So I started to play Detlarune after my wife got it for me for my Bday. Got through the 1st chapter and im really enjoying it. Im just going to play that now and maybe come back to ff7....if I feel like it.

I main The Witcher 3 at the moment, with Skellige mostly done. It took me 4 separate attempts to finally make it that far. The game has a fantastic narrative and the quests backstories are really engaging, with great music to set the mood. Absolutely everything else, from combat, exploration, traversal to upgrades, economy and even UX, is sub-par and a massive chore. I've made it this far this time around only because of some mods.

If I'm in the mood for something lighter I'm playing Super Video Golf. Awesome arcade game emulating the nostalgic feeling of similar games from the 90s.
