I am a big fan of crpg: usually I play Baldur's Gate, Solasta, Pathfinder... but I will play DIV because I want to try a new class (done the campaign with a Sorc, next one will be a druid or a necro).

Gloomhaven! Just started another two minis mercenary, they are my favorite

I've been playing Ace Combat 7. It has been exhilarating!

[–] Adonnus@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yo ace fan! One thing I love about the ace combat series are the soundtracks. Daredevil from 7 is just mwah phenomenal.

Picked up Deep Rock Galactic based on recommendations in another thread, not very good at it yet but it's a lot of fun!

[–] MilliaStrange@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago

Going through World Tour mode in Street Fighter 6 plus a little local play, and Tears of the Kingdom. It's a good time to be a g4m3r

Battlebit remastered. Definitely got curious from their ads, but it is a battlefield experience like no other. Puts 2042 to shame. It looks silly but its challenging in all the right ways.

Finished Midnight Suns on monday iirc. Pretty decent overall, really liked the combat and the relation between characters but god the writers didnt really know when to shut up and even cool dialogues are dragged into the mud because the dialogues get awkardly long, like none of the two characters talking know how to end the conversation. That and the game forcing you through side content makes a game that was close to a 9 to barely a 7.
Playing Ghostwire Tokyo too and i think im close to finishing it too. It has been a fun ride but i dont know if the enemy variety and core gameplay stands on its own for 10+ hours. The setting is amazing and enjoyed most of the side missions i did. Loved learning a lot of japanese culture with the game, its been done with a lot of respect for Japanese folklore.

Guild Wars 2, evidently others do like it as the maps are usually not empty.

I would like to play a more engaging game, but I'm working too much and my brain need some chill time.

Mechabellum. Nothing else.

Autobattler with mechs. Very lively atm and you get a game in a minute easily. Super well executed game, but it is in early access and definitely has jank when it comes to user experience.

Would 100% recommend.

I've been jumping back and forth between The Finals Closed Beta and Battlebit Remastered when I'm not leveling my sorcerer on Diablo IV.

Outside of that, for demos I played the FF16 demo which blew my wig back. Lusant is another one coming from Don't Nod that I played a small chunk of and quit because I knew it was right up my alley and didn't need to see more, have a feeling it'll be a shorter experience. Then I tried Lies of P, which has busted HDR support on PC, so gonna give it a shot on PS5 today. Overall dug the vibe and combat, the influence from Bloodborne is all over the damn game.

[–] Nilesse@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

Currently playing the Ace Attorney Trilogy! I'm also eagerly waiting for Next Fest to start tomorrow to try out various demos.

I feel boring after scrolling through all the other replies and just saying Diablo 4. :p

I died against the final boss earlier this week after getting them down to a couple hits left, so I spent all week grinding renown and paragon points and just completely face rolled them this morning. Feels good, man. I can't wait to start on the endgame content.

Other than that, I played that Grimace game on my GBC style emulation handheld. It's... a game. I also played Microsoft's Bejeweled clone in the mobile Xbox app to get rewards points.

I've broken my winning streak, and found my way back into Eve Online again. This time I'm in Faction Warfare, which actually seems like fun, and not an eternal blobfest all over the place.

[–] balderdash9@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

Been playing Stardew valley and Slay the spire while watching tv/movies on a second monitor. It's a pretty engrossing way to spend your free time.

I just restarted Kingdom of Amalur: Reckoning. I started it almost 10 years ago but didn't get very far. It's dated, but I'm really enjoying it so far!

[–] LherkinGherkin@feddit.uk 3 points 1 year ago

Just finished playing the Lies of P demo. Almost rage quit on the last boss but finally beat it this morning. Really enjoyed the demo, very Bloodborne-esque and now looking forward to the full game release.

Bannerlord! Been sitting in my library for a while now, finally got the time to play it.

Hunt showdown w my mates, rimworld for myself. Looking for a tactical mp fps to tide me over for Fallujah but Sandstorm didn't really click for me. Might wait for Squad to hit a deep sale.

Cyberpunk - I like it but it's still buggy to the point of having to reload at times. The main story is absurdly predictable and short, barely got into it and I'm at the point of no return. Maybe the conclusion will save it. Replayability is low due to all the unskippable pseudo cutscenes. Combat is meh. So far a 7/10 game

F1 23 - finally a good F1 game

[–] Adonnus@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

Damn I miss panam.

I'm playing Pokémon Yellow on my SteamDeck (via RetroArch). The childhood nostalgia I'm experiencing is heart-warming. :)

Disco Elysium Final Cut. Went into it almost completely blind and I'm really into it so far.

Been playing some RE: revelations 2 on switch, lately been on a Resident evil mood just finches RE2R so going with the franchise a little bit.

[–] jbaert@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Playing a bit of DUSK while my computer encodes some video. I find that even while all threads are busy at x265, I can still squeeze it in.

Otherwise: Overwatch 2 and trying to finish Ragnarok on PS5

Diablo, overwatch, RimWorld depending on if friends are available or how much free time I have

[–] Toxic_Tiger@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago (4 children)

I've been playing The Division 2 and I'm really enjoying it. I stopped playing for a few years, and now I've managed to stop the game crashing every 5 minutes, it's really good fun.

I'm going through the Street Figher 6 World Tour Mode and am near the end I think. No idea how much I'll play it afterward. Maybe I'll try out some stuff in the Battle Hub, like the Arcade Mode or the different training modes, to actually learn some stuff.

Mostly relaxing games like Unpacking to kill time while I wait for FFXVI. I'm afraid of committing to other games at this point. Though I think I might get back into Vampire Survivors to help kill time too though.

Been playing some FFXIV, Baldurs Gate 3, Solasta, Divinity Original Sin 1 Enhanced Edition and Cyberpunk in that rotation

[–] Adonnus@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Witcher 2 babyyyy. First time playthrough and it's just... Like I'm a kid again and I can't stop thinking about playing it again when I'm at work.

Forgive Me Father. I rarely play shooters these days but this one is a quite pleasant for short sessions so far with just a tad of old doom-like tactics, but more streamlined, and has nice aesthetics too

Tears of the Kingdom Diablo IV Dark Souls 3 Final Fantasy XVI demo

[–] TimberHearth@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm extremely hype about Phantom Liberty so I reinstalled Cyberpunk and have had a bit of a poke around. Don't want to get too involved in a new playthough until the DLC drops so just loaded up an old save for now.

Horizon Forbidden West. Got the expansion and wanted to go through the main story again before jumping into it.
