Do tabletop games count? If so, then... Dungeons and Dragons haha. I'm learning the ropes, having fun with it :)

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

Tabletop games absolutely count! I love D&D, I’m glad you’re having fun!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Oh damn I didn't even think about tabletop games counting! In that case I have to amend my answer to also include Pathfinder 2.

I took the month of Halloween as an excuse to replay all of Silent Hill and it has been a fantastic experience, very nostalgic. I'm already playing the 4th game and when I finish it I'm going to jump into playing short horror games on Itch.io.

Did you play SH2 remake? If so what did you think?

I've been taking a video game break to play more board games. Zoo Vadis has been a top pick lately and I highly recommend.

I was playing Dwarf Fortress, but the bugs made me shelve the game for the foreseeable future. It's great until the bugs kill your game.

I started Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth. I've been loving it, it's like they made the game for me. It's a perfect unwind game at the end of a day of work between the calming music, character conversations, and silly or cute mini games; but there's also enough strategy and action in battles to keep my mind stimulated when I want more than that.

Dead Space and Silent Hill 2 (once I get paid πŸ‘€), and replaying Ghost of Tsushima.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I dunno a lot about ghost of Tsushima, but I’ve always thought it looks interesting, and very beautiful.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's an open world action game, and the story is very good! The writing is so good that I played the DLC in the middle of the game and didn't realize it until the end (bought about a year out of release) . It's that cohesive. It's one of those games that you can just lose yourself in. There's fast travel, but the landscape is so inviting. I also think the fighting is really well done. The way they integrate fighting styles and the story telling is too notch. Maybe look up a play through and see if it's your jam. I hope it is!

Morrowind. But i beat it w the dlcs few days ago so might replay oblivion before replaying morrowind with mods. I got tamriel rebuilt tho to see a glimpse of what theyve built and the sheer size of the map is jawdropping.

Super Mario Bros 3 and GTA V!

Sudoku all the time. It’s the perfect tool for waiting 7 minutes. I bought the app β€œEnjoy Sudoku” many years ago and it is my most played game ever.

  • Titan quest AE with the newer expansions.

  • Probably going to check out the new no man's sky expedition they're usually fun for a short while.

  • Waiting and hoping DA: veilguard will be good.

  • Waiting for stalker 2 after that.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I can't get off Splatoon

Just went back and played the Witcher 3 Blood & Wine expansion. The main questline was really awesome! Many of the side quests feel like busy work, but some are good.

Tis the Halloween season, so I'm now playing Amnesia: The Bunker. It offers a new gameplay flow from their past, more linear games. Past games are more: here's an area with its own monster and a puzzle, solve the puzzle to get through this area. The Bunker (so far) is more: there are several areas with puzzles, but the whole time there is a monster living in the walls that you have to be careful not to alert. Makes it feel more sandboxy and freeform, I'm digging it.

Currently Green Hell. Took me a bit to not be mauled by a jaguar or get bitten by a snake.

My last game was Skyward Sword.

I’m playing PokΓ©mon HeartGold for the first time. I’ve always kind of liked Pokemon but I’ve never really gotten into one of the games properly, so I’m trying with this one.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Inertial Drift, an arcade racer. Some people might find the game too "arcade"y but I enjoy the game.

Pros - Drifting mechanic and graphics are unique

Cons - You might forget your drifting instinct you built in other games

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

Donut County. It's cozy and silly and perfect before going to sleep.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Got Yellow Taxi Goes Vroom last night and absolutely had a blast. It's like a collect-a-thon style game where you play as a living taxi who has to collect green gears to stop Alien Mosk and his oil.

I also got around to an updated version of Shotgun King: The Final Checkmate. It's chess, but you are a single chess king piece with a shotgun vs various other pieces on the other side who normally can only move normally. Beat the enemy king and get a card to buff you, and your opponents. Simple gameplay.

I'm pretty much always coming back to Rocket League with a couple of friends. We're probably gonna get Space Marine 2 soon to play together too.

Paper Mario Thousand Year Door remake with my wife because she's never seen it. We also started Dead Space. Right now our main obsession is passing the controller back and forth to play Dredge.

I also have a create a pro career I will play off and on in FC 24 and NHL 24 (both were included with PS+, don't @ me lol).

Because of PS+, I'll try a new game every few weeks. Some really keep my attention like Tunic and The Forgotten City did, and some get deleted almost immediately like Car Mechanic Simulator and Ride 5. I'm always trying something new.

Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow, practicing the any% route so I can play it onstream soon.

That's when I'm not distracted with [email protected] on my phone.
