Metaphor ReFantazio. I'm not a big Persona fan, but this game rules.

I went through Jusant recently. It came fairly close to scratching the Outer Wilds itch, but it was a little marred by jank at several points. The climbing mechanics were interesting, but you don't get to be creative with them very often. I did enjoy it overall, it just wasn't as good as I feel it could have been and nearly was
Amber Isle!
Cute dinosaur shopkeeper sim with decorating & friendship mechanics.
AC Valhalla. I've recently finished odyssey and I wanted to play another "turn off the brain checklist open world game"
It's very rough around the edges (bugs, clipping, clunky movement) and it got me frustrated time and time again, but the thing I'm disliking the most are the frequent and mandatory raids. If I wanted a full fledged action game I'd be playing wukong or some shit.
Enabling insta-kill assassination from the accessibility options is what's been saving the game for me.
I'm also considering about lowering the difficulty. The second hardest one is making the enemies unreasonably tanky, which does not bode well with the shittiest healing system I have ever seen in a videogame.
Drova: Forsaken Kin, very fun 2D RPG in the Gothic mold...i.e., you start off weak and will get your ass kicked by rats and wasps, getting your first set of real armor takes hours and feels like a major power-up, multiple factions you can join that are deeper than "good guy vs bad guy." Small development team (I think it's just 6 German dudes) but they're actively engaged and quick with patches.
Amber Isle. It's like a dinosaur-themed animal crossing except you're tom nook. It's a bit buggy, but it's really cute and exactly my kinda thing lol.
Rivals of Aether 2, they did a week long open beta a little over a week ago, and they release fully today. Finally happy to play a damn good mechanically involved platform fighter far away from the legal clutches of Nintendo. Other than that ive been dipping my toes into Throne and Liberty.
Inscription Persona 3 reload Fragpunk beta test
TF2 Never gets boring. I've been doing the same thing in TF2 for over 1500 hours
Iβve been playing a ton of stardew valley lately. I bought it for ever ago and just thought it was meh. But figured let me try it again maybe I just didnβt get into it and I was right because holy heck Iβm hooked right now having a ton of fun and loving it. Itβs such a cute little game I love it.
I recently played minecraft on my NixOS servet with my new friend from college. This weekend I wanna play Gothic 1 for the first time (wish me luck)
Duke Nukem for PS3
Been replaying re4, stuck at the fight against ramon. Also playing lots of Hades 2, I'm up to six fear now.
Kerbal Space Program (with mods) and Assassins Creed Mirage.
I recently texted my ex and now Iβm back in deep with my toxic relationship with Rainbow 6: Siege.
Monetization schemes aside I am literally in love with the design of the game. Itβs so well suited for team play that encourages everyone to come up with unexpected plans
Planet Crafter Humble DLC and TCG Card Shop Simulator. The Humble DLC is still a bit buggy but it's nice having a new planet to explore. I've paused playing Card Shop Simulator until the developers smooth out the XP grind a bit more.
On paper D&D 5e and Pathfinder 2e.
On PC Darktide, Ready Or Not and Satisfactory.
TextSpaced "a thrilling sci-fi MMORPG that you can play in your browser [which] has been designed to provide an enjoyable experience for people of all abilities, including those who are blind or partially sighted".
On tabletop me and teens have been enjoying the Nexalis TTRPG
I just finished Kingdom Hearts 1 and am currently playing Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories.
After 22 years I finally gave KH1 another go and I loved it so much I got every game of the series lol
Absolute Balderdash. The funniest of all board games.
Nightmare Reaper. I finally bothered to unlock Newgame+, so I'm having fun with the better guns in earlier levels.
Zenless Zone Zero FFXIV Silent Hill 2 remake Cyberpunk Dredge Eden ring.
I flip flop a lot. I play little by little a whole bunch of games. I'll beat them all eventually!
Tales of Berseria, extremely solid real time jrpg with a female protagonist, been enioying it a lot.
Upcoming stream after 11 months π
Me too! My weekly stream is becoming more of a yearly stream. My work schedule doesn't really allow for consistent streams, but maybe that'll change soon.
Mud Runners. Surprisingly a good game if you like mishaps that provide challenges. The soft terrain physics are fun just to watch as your truck plows through, too.
Lately I've been playing Roboquest, an indie arena shooter about halfway through the progression system, and Octopath Traveler 2, a jrpg with great music and some battle mechanics that make turn based combat more interesting (5 battle points per character that charge per turn to boost abilities, defense breaks/weak points, and buff/debuff counters).
Pentiment. Had me gripped more than any game I've played recently. Such a great aesthetic, and the rich history it weaves is compelling
