2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good.

Testing out the new WoW talent system and likely will swap back to private servers while I wait for one called Project Epoch. That and Skyrim on switch or Among Us if my kids make me play with them.

Just started Phoenix Point today. Really itching for some fresh XCOM and I don't want to play too much Xenonauts 2 before full release.

Hogwarts Legacy for PC. It’s a blast. There’s so much to do and explore. I’ve logged twenty hours and I’m not even halfway through the main storyline.

Finally reached Phase 4 fornthe first time in Satisfactory, so I started another playthrough of Hollow Knight to celebrate.

Wife and I have been working our way through Sons Of The Forest while we wait for Baldurs Gate, I'm hoping to get some time to myself soon so I can keep playing Metal Gear V

I've been absolutely addicted to Enter The Gungeon, tryna get all the achievements. Probably the GOAT roguelike

I wanted so badly since last year to play the whole god of war series, but I don't have much time. So every time I have off from work, it is my mission to progress in the series! I started god of war (PS4) yesterday, and wow, it's amazing (I loved them all though until now, but the old series is more about fun and the new one much deeper and full of emotions).

I don’t see it here so I’ll say Gran Turismo 7 with the PSVR 2 and I have a really nice wheel and seat mount. It’s the best sim racing experience I’ve had to date.

Picked up a copy of battlebit 2 weeks ago. Managed to get maybe one hour in so far.

Started playing Hardspace Shipbreaker because the concept seemed interesting. And Holy moly this is just so satisfying to play. I guess now I know why people play other work simulators

I was planning to play Diablo 4's first season this weekend, but the patch was an absolute middle finger to the entire player base. And the seasonal theme wasn't that interesting to begin with. So now I'm not playing much of anything.

Any map-staring enthusiasts? I've been playing Europa Universals 4 lately.

Started as Ethiopia, got up to Egypt before the Ottomans but they got Syria. I got all of the Arabian Peninsula and nearly all of East/Central Africa, but I've been so behind in tech that I can't actually challenge the Ottos (kept them at bay by allying a strong Poland/Commonwealth). Finally, around 1600 I'm caught up and about to start making my final push towards Constantinople.

Just started Dave the Diver, about 15 hours in. It has a fair bit of content and the "mini games" don't feel too out of place.

Also felt the itch to spin up a new minecraft mod pack instance, so I started feed the factory, a mod pack inspired by factorio. Encourages you to build big systems in bulk with rows and rows of massive machines. Very satisfying. I also hate dealing with mobs, and the mod pack is basically in peaceful mode, focusing primarily on building, so it's right up my alley.

Enjoying the hell out of Beat Saber after sleeping on it for way too long. It almost feels like self-improvement as well, the higher difficulties are a workout and a half and with the massive amounts of custom songs available it's not likely to get boring anytime soon.

I do wish it wasn't mandatory to speed up the songs to get on the leaderboards, none of these tracks are improved by being played at whatever multiplier they use.

Hotline Miami! It's a blast!

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

I just finished The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk: The Amulet of Chaos. It was fun. Nothing groundbreaking, but an entertaining turn-based party-based rpg, with an emphasis on tongue-in-cheek humor. I recommend it if you like that sort of thing.

Finally picked up God of War last week on sale, so I've started that now for the first time. Liking it so far after just around 2-1/2 hours, and looking forward to seeing how it unfolds.

I just bought a wheel and shifter, so I've just been cruising around in Forza.

Mainly trying to get used to it because it's not the same as driving irl.

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

Currently Dave The Diver. Vampire Survivors here and there when I need a quick fix. And Two Dots on the mobile phone. Been playing it for two days, which makes it pretty good.

DCS, mostly. It's a real learning curve from first getting your jet started, to flying and shooting at other people.

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

Flip-flopping between Minecraft Bedrock and Techtonia. The latter just came out and i'm struggling my way through it

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

Spider-Man Web of Shadows for the DS. Recently downloaded some DS games so I decided to relive a classic from when I was a kid.
