I feel like my “all-time favorite” changes depending on my mood, but if I had to pick just one, I’d probably go with The Witcher 3. That game just hit all the right notes—amazing story, incredible world-building, and so much stuff to do without feeling like pointless filler. Plus, the expansions were just as good, if not better than the base game.

What about you? Are you more into RPGs, shooters, or something else entirely?

same deal, favorites change according to mood, but there are overall few mainstays:

Indiana Jones & The Fate of Atlantis.

It's a childhood favorite I return to every now and then. It's a point&click adventure, and to me it's essentially the 4th (and last) Indiana Jones movie. :D

Apart from one or two bad bits the game pulls, it's otherwise pretty logical from start to finish. 3 different paths from mid to late game, and mostly good voice acting (for the time). I know the game by heart at this point, but still it feels fun to play, every time. Nostalgia-goggles probably play a big part.

kinda spoilery descriptions of said bad bits

  • there's a "puzzle" where you need to go back and forth trading items between 2 characters, until eventually some hint from the recipient drops. Not hard, just.. tedious.
  • the hot air balloon controls are bad. Not impossible to use, but just imprecise for no real gameplay reason.
  • if you didn't LOOK at one specific Atlantean cupboard's door, you have no clue how to solve a later puzzle. Though, you can return to the cupboard, but nothing hints there being instructions for the later puzzle on it.

Cyberpunk 2077

I know it's a divisive game, don't care, works for me. The bleak vibes of the game just speak to me. Have played it through several times since launch, occasionally still find new things here and there. Not the deepest rpg around, but a good action-rpg with neonlights.

Unnamed Space Idle

I've been on this idle/timewaster for way over a year, slow progress raising the numbers all the time. Sure it's a bit low on gameplay, but absolutely neat little game to occasionally click few times when watching some longform content or so.

Happy to see an idle/incremental here as a lover of that genre. Wish the Mbin side of incremental.social worked, I'd love to participate on [email protected] or use my account there.

I don't see any new posts since 7 months ago. (Unless my instance stopped federating.)
