Diablo 4 season 2. Leveling and equipment progress is faster so it makes ranking up glyphs feel really slow. Vampire thing was okay, the powers were cool changes but the rewards board is lame after getting the one Vampire power on it. The Varshan boss under the tree has been kicking my ass, but hopefully I can get boss fights better dialed in the closer I get to lv100.

Uncharted on PS4. Fancied an action game that was tight and linear. I find too open world doesn't respect my time and I don't like grindy. I'm finally comfortable to play a game on easy and whizz though rather than challenge myself more and spend ages on it or never finish it. It's still fun and even on easy, some of the gameplay is repetitive.

Also, always playing street fighter. Used to be V, now VI. Finisnf it is great and fun but it's not as much fun creating combos as V, but the new mechanics are good so overall it's better.

Return to Moria. It's a lot of fun, adventuring through a Dwarven mine with a few friends. It was hard to put down, but I suppose we need to eat and sleep at some point.

How are you getting on? I'm really considering getting this - I get paid today and have a week next week without the family... Been playing and enjoying Planet Crafters and Forever Skies, and I'm in the survival-building-exploring mood at the moment.

I've recently upgraded my pc and I've been playing Anno 1800 with all season pass. I can play that game for 10 hours straight. I really have to tell myself to stop. There is just always something to do in that game, I just love it.

Barotruma for the honkmother the honkening shall continue

I've never gotten past the second (or maybe third) zone of Barotrauma. usually I play with my brother, and we have a slew of mods that add new equipment and let you uninstall and reinstall equipment on subs, and we end up turning a rustbucket into a profitable cargo hauler with storage racks in every conceivable space and a wire up controller to manage the reactor for us. have you ever gotten to endgame content?

Yep a couple of times never completed the campaign tho I've gotten 600hrs in the game I tend to troll around and dabble in some griefing I mainly play on mutitplayer servers

On my 2nd New Playthrough of Elden Ring. I was a STR/FTH build in my first playthrough, so I decided to use the build opposite to that, DEX/INT. I love the Moonveil and the Dark Moon Greatsword, but the Godslaying Greatsword has a good place in my heart. That, and funny dragon lightning. I'm going back to STR/FTH on NG+.

On a side note, beating Malenia for the 2nd time is satisfying as hell

I'm between games right now but I just finished and did a bunch of the extra stuff in Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night.

Just started playing cities: skylines 2 (with gamepass, I didn't preorder) and I think it's good. The performance, while bad, isn't as bad as people are saying. I'm on low settings + 1080p with a gtx 1650 super, and a ryzen 7 5700x and I get around 20-30 frames, which is bad but not unplayable and there will be mods that improve this.

Been playing KP Liberation on Arma 3 again with a group of friends. It's always a blast and older games just have such a nice feel to them.

Getting back into Last Epoch again. Really excited to finally have a launch date for 1.0 in February 2024.

I have been trying to beat a 2nd run in Slay the Spire. I also have been failing to get past round 15 in that endless mode in Shotgun King: The Final Checkmate.

Just finished Cyberpunk 2077 and Phantom Liberty yesterday, and it's easily one of the best experience I ever had. The game's not perfect, it has bugs, some balancing problems, some cliches. But it has a lot of charm and a very gripping story. I absolutely loved it.

Man, I gotta get back to that. I almost cleared the whole first Michigan map entirely and took a break, but I really loved the slow paced thoughtful approach to a "driving" game.
