Started playing Monomyth recently. I’m not far in yet but seems pretty good so far.
I’m hooked on the Gothic Remake. It runs like garbage. I can barely get 30 fps. Sometimes. But I’m still having a great time. I’m on my third run.
Next up is Kingdom Come Deliverance 2. Hope that runs better. KCD 1 ran great.
I played KCD2 on my deck and it was decent. You’re in for another pretty good yarn.
Back to Valheim again for a bit. A local gaming group fired up a new server, so I am back into building massive bases into the side of mountains.
I stay away from early access, so now that this is imminent-I decided to give Valheim a try. It’s super fun and I’m not sure why. It’s grindy af, and I don’t think there’s any new and novel mechanics - but I’m hooked.
Maybe the difficulty and the fact I’m just playing blind? Man, sailing for the first time was cool. Then I decided to land in the swamp, at night, for the first time ever - ya, that didn’t end well…. Kinda had to start over, couldn’t even get to my corpse lol. Brutal but fun…
I’ve got 1500+ hours in it overall, though I suspect I left it on the menu screen and fell asleep a few times to reach that number.
It still scratches the rpg/builder/cooperative itch for me, even though I mostly just solo build stuff now.
The challenge of trying to build big and taller with the weight/support mechanic seems to pull me back.
Then sailing does too. I’ve been revisiting the ashlands a bit as well, trying to get my block/dodge timing back up to par before 1.0 hits later this year.
Going through Control again since the sequel comes out in a few months. I’m usually streaming to my deck from my PC though.
Parking Garage Rally Racer. Fun little racing game with retro 3d graphics.
Also resumed playing Cat Quest. Simple Lite-RPG where you can leave it for a year and come back to.
Which one of the three Cat Quest game would you recommend for kids? Part 2 seems like a good co-op based on the description.
Cat Quest 2 or 3 if co-op is a requirement.
I hear 2 is a longer game but 3 has better QoL features.
Trials of mana. It runs nicely but sucks the battery down, only get a little over an hour.
I’ve also just been playing Luanti (voxelibre, Asuna, mineclonia) a bit because my daughter is learning to play it on her computer and wants me to lan play with her but I have no idea what these games are about.
Mass Effect Andromeda. Runs great on the deck. also been hitting Terraria fairly hard with a friend.
I’ve been playing Final Fantasy XIV while my wife and I are watching TV in the evening. I’m still adjusting to the gamepad controls, but it runs great and it’s relaxing to grind out leveling content.
Decided to finally give the Batman Arkham games a shot, oh and I’m still in the middle of another Fallout NV run.
Tainted Grail. I made a necroarcher and having a blast
So much better than I expected. Reviews back around release made it sound so rough.
Summoning does seem to make the game very easy. I went from getting wrecked every time I encountered stuff to being able to handle enemies that one shot me simply by having fodder. I consider this to be a boon for the game because there should be many playable options and not all should be equally difficult.
Feels like skyrim but with actually good combat. The amount of random stuff everywhere to uncover is crazy.
The Ace Attorney games I’m really enjoying the storylines.
I’ve been playing Granblue Fantasy Relink, and I’ve been really enjoying it. Big DLC for it releases this month, so I’m trying to get caught up to play with friends once the DLC comes out.
Great game, really fun on deck. There are some minor fps drops during character discussions in the town, but performance has been really good during gameplay. Combat system is really fun. There’s a big end game loop that’s similar to monster hunter, where you do boss fights to farm upgrades and materials.
I’ve been trying to play Boyfriends Dungeon and Star Wars Podracer, but I fucked up my thumb last week and can’t use the left joystick without significant pain. It’s not broken, just fucked it up bad.
So I downloaded The Shapeshifting Detective and a few other FMV games since I can play those 100% right handed
Dusklight.
I’ve been playing project zomboids. I suck at it lol
Yeah I suck at it a lot. I have a friend who plays a lot, so I thought I could learn by playing with him. But he insists we need to play on harder difficulties so I don’t pick up bad habits, and it makes it nearly impossible for me to progress at all when I play with him.
