I'm playing San Andreas: Definitive Edition, it's actually my very first exposure to GTA San Andreas and I'm enjoying it a lot so far! πŸ˜ƒ What games have you been playing lately?

Stardew Valley run, trying to hit perfection by year 3.

7 Days to Die. Tried it a few years ago but didn't quite feel it. Now I've played about 150 hours over the last 2 months and am super hooked.

It seems to have matured quite a bit!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

Very much! And the modding community is doing some absolutely incredible work.

Aw yeah! Have you played the second one?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Yes, but only started the first one now (pc gamer)

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Just played ENA: Dream BBQ, really enjoyed it.

I marathoned Her Story last night. It's barely even a game. You're just searching through a database watching interrogation clips from this one woman trying to piece together what happened. Really cool experience though with lots of twists and turns

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

Marvel Rivals, Fragpunk are my current shooters

Atomfall, Balatro and 33 Immortals are in current rotation

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

Balatro, all the games in the hunie pop series (for various lengths of time, I forgot how obnoxciously clicky studio was, HP1 is still a great alternative to chess when I want to move pieces but not think too hard), a little FNV but all my characters ended up with stupid problems.

Helldivers 2. So fun. So funny.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Binding of Isaac! Still trying for 100%

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Aw yeah! Had a phase where I got super addicted to that one! Really is an awesome game

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

Stardew and Cult of the Lamb with the kids, Minecraft, and FFTA emulated on my phone

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

Tactical Breach Wizards. I really like the writing, character design, and the bite sized levels.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

Factorio, elden ring, and slay the spire.

Factorio is just good, and it's my favorite game of all time.

In elden ring, I've been trying out a new build that I call the "harmacist" build. Power stance thrusting swords, and a bunch of status buildup on both for giving the enemies their "medication".

In slay the spire I've recently reached ascension 20 on the defect, but haven't quite managed to beat it yet.

I am currently playing a game called Empires of the Undergrowth. It is an ant simulator and it is extremely fun! Both educational and exciting to try to save your queen by breeding warrior ants, deciding their evolution tree and making sure the worker ants can collect food safely

@Corno i was just playing tenchu stealth assassin on the psx... classic... once i remembered the controls.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I never played Stealth Assassins but I have so many fond memories of Tenchu: Wrath of Heaven, particularly multiplayer.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

@Coelacanth it's def held up by nostalgia... the movement is not greeaat. but man it's so fun. :D

I think the second one is considered the best? or was it wrath of heaven... i watched a friend play that and it was a very different game tho. it's a stealth heavy game for the first one.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I'm pretty sure Wrath of Heaven is considered the best, but I haven't played all of them. You're making me itch to jump into it again though, for some nostalgia.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

@Coelacanth the internet archive game launcher is a great kodi addon ;)

(side note apparently you have to side load the apk from their site if you want controllers to work without an additional addon)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Stationeers. I love how complex it is, to the point where you program chips with MIPS to automate air filtration systems.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Final Fantasy XIV. Sometimes have to check occasionally if my ranks are still there.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Operation Harsh Doorstop and Beyond All Reason.

Also a bit of Voidigo, Enter The Gungeon and Sale Blazers.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Macbat 64

Half-Life

Dark Souls 2 - helping a new player. It's been a lot of fun, and also frustrating because of the stupid soul memory mechanic. I want to try a co op mod (and other mods) but it seems like a lot of work.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Kena, finished about a quarter way through i think

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Just played the annual Terraforming Mars (digital on steam) game, I still hate it, but tradition is tradition, we play it because Mars sounds like March in french, so we just have to play it in March

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

With my buddies I've been playing Sons of the Forest and we just finished it actually. We tried phasmo but it was a miss with this group unfortunately so we might try GTA online again.

With my coworkers I've been playing REPO or modded Lethal Company if more than 4 people show, if not we tend to just chat or play Helldivers 2 or phasmo.

When I want to mindlessly game I'll play Helldivers 2 randomly queueing or find something on my phone.

I'm partway into Act 3 on my 2nd play through of Baldur's Gate 3

spoilerAbout to take on the Steel Watcher foundry

Kingdom come: deliverance here! Reminds me of a better Witcher 1.
