PC Gaming

Last Epoch, an indie ARPG similar to Diablo or Path of Exile. I have about 450 hours in it (since the early access phase) but hadn't played it for over a year. Now that I'm boycotting Microsoft/Xbox I recently jumped back in and have been enjoying the impressive amount of stuff that's been added post-launch.

I play this kind of game "casually", by which I mean I don't look up build guides. To me the most fun part of the game is developing a good enough understanding of the mechanics to be able to find success building whatever type of character it is that I want to play. For someone with this type of approach I think LE is great and very flexible! It's the only game I've reviewed on Steam and years later I still recommend it!

Graveyard Keeper. It's kinda like Stardew Valley but you maintain a graveyard, give sermons, enbalm bodies, make alchemy potions, raise the dead to perform menial, tasks, and grow crops!

My only complaint is that there's so many recipes and different stuff to do I need to have a couple tabs of the wiki open.

Noita. Simple and clever.

And Rimworld.

Kingdom come deliverance 2,while I wait on vintage story mods to update

Recently, Baldur's gate 3, off world trading company, old school Runescape, timberborn. I'm missing some recent but j forgot it so meh.

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.

Space Station 14! It's so goofy! I love the idea of a large scale semi cooperative roleplaying experience.

My wife's not a gamer, but I showed her some Telltale games and she loved them. We just finished playing all 4 Walking Dead games and had z great time. We're playing Michonne now, then The Wolf Among Us.

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.

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.

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 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

I like to mix things up, so I'm replaying Wolfenstein New Colossus on death incarnate difficulty, and sprinkling in Steve's Warehouse, Balatro and Hades for shorter sessions.

I'm waiting for a good sale to pick up Indiana Jones and will probably get Borderlands 4 sometime soon so hubs and I can play it together. I'm also considering a new playthrough of Cult of the Lamb now that the expansion has been announced.

Clair Obscura, because I enjoy depression.

I'll start - was super into Cult of the Lamb until Nightreign came out and as a Fromsoft addict I haven't really played anything else since.

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.

I'm couch surfing rn and only have my laptop, so I can really only play Stardew Valley. I've been slowly changing production entirely over to ancient fruit from hops.

I wish could play Satisfactory tho. :{

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

Gone back to working on Monster Hunter Rise with my son.

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.

I am taking a break from working on my Skyrim mod list to try getting into Baldur's Gate 3 for a third time.

My first attempt, I picked "tactician" difficulty, didn't make optimal choices for character build and party composition, and then quit at the end of act 2 when the fights got too hard. Then I tried honour mode, minmaxed everything, was getting by okay but quit in the middle of act two because playing that way was boring.

So now I'm playing at the default difficulty level, just relaxing and having fun like a normal person.

I'm on an everything Battletech-related kick, so Mechwarrior 5: Mercenaries is what I'm playing currently.

Hades 2 Death Stranding 2 Overwatch 2

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

Clone Hero! I missed how much fun Guitar Hero was

Cyberpunk 2077

Stardew Valley

Hades 2

Diablo 4

These are the ones I’m rotating between most right now. I’ve also got Doom (2016) and BG3 on rotation, but haven’t hit them in a while.

The Steam Deck has been such a great addition. Especially being able to stream titles like CP2077 from the PC for better graphical fidelity and battery life.

Edit: Oh! And Geometry Wars 3! It’s so good on the Steam Deck! It says “Playable” but I genuinely don’t know why, it seems completely supported as far as I can tell.

DOOM using prboom I started it in Hurt me plenty but quickly had to change to Ultra-Violence because I was thinking "Where's all the monsters?", it's nice to re-play the levels and listen to the good music.

TurtleWoW when I need to relax and do some questing.

Mostly Elden Ring and Automobilista 2. I finally got Shadow of the Erdtree but had to take a bit to ~~git gud~~ git less bad again before diving into the Land of Shadow, not helped at all by the fact that the character I wanted to go in with was not at all well-suited to fight Mohg. Still, I'm enjoying it a great deal. The map design is phenomenal, I keep just stopping to look at the landscape for a bit

Automobilista is just the go-to for having a game with some other friends who also like racing sims at the moment. It's not my favourite in terms of driving physics, but it's good enough, the car classes being relatively balanced is nice for variety in races, and I'm honestly really enjoying trying out all the South American tracks that I've never heard of

Helldivers 2, have played at least a couple times a week since release with a group of friends but have been diving almost every night for the last few weeks as one of our other friends is on XBox and finally gets to join us!

Unfortunately he has only had time for one dive so far, but hopefully he has plenty of time tonight.

i need a computer with s graphs card :(
