bioshock infinite. Technically finished it, but I’m replaying on hard
I’ve been playing a lot of Halo 4 with friends lately this week. We’re working on Spartan Ops since it’s the last legendary achievement i have to do
Eriksholm
It is a very beautiful isometric stealth game with a good story. I am playing the demo and I am already hooked to it. The demo is surprisingly long and enough to decide whether you are interested or not in this game.
Just spent the last 2 days 100% Sword of the Sea. I highly recommend giving the game a shot.
Traveller’s rest. Cozy tavern keeping game that has co-op support.
I discovered Inscryption this week. It’s a story driven, deck builder, escape room game.
Without spoiling anything for anyone…how uh…how far are you?
I would say I finished the main game and have done a part of the post game.
If that makes sense :)
I think you’ve seen that there’s more than meets the eye, at the very least, so we can leave it at that. A friend of mine was quite sure he had almost finished it before when he was nowhere close, lol.
Skies of Arcadia Legends
I’ve barely played this version and it really makes it less of a chore compared to the Dreamcast version.
Squad
It’s hard to recommend to new players because of some big issues the game has but it’s the only game that I play 90% for the social interaction it brings.
Hollow Knight in preparation for Silksong
Guilty Gear Strive just got a big balance patch and a matchmaking update, and it’s great to be back. The experience of playing the game is better than ever.
I’ve still been going through Kingdom Come: Deliverance II. It remains the best game I’ve played this year. I’m working my way through the Brushes With Death DLC, which has some interesting mission design if not the most compelling narrative. I think I’ve done all the side quests I planned to do before finishing the game, so I’ve got the last third or so of the main quest to return to after I finish the DLC. Then the second expansion comes out early next month.
I also started playing Mafia: Definitive Edition, and boy have I missed crime drama stories in video games. This one is pretty by-the-numbers when it comes to gameplay, but after 4 hours, they’ve got plenty of interesting set pieces and narrative beats. I’m very much into this. I plan to play through the next two games before picking up The Old Country.
Other than those, I’ve got a project I’m working on to set up a VPN that I control, rather than trusting an external service whose terms of service could change at any time, so that I can play old LAN games with my friends in this era of live service multiplayer games. Once I get it all sorted out and working, maybe I’ll write up a post here so others can do the same.
Still working my way through this one. It’s aight. Not as good as the first one; better mechanics and QoL, but lacks the amazing writing and soul of the first one. Still very enjoyable when doing main quests though and excited to finish.
But… from what I’ve seen on Twitch I, next I really want to play Abiotic Factor. Described as Half Life 1 meets Minecraft, with apparently amazing progression. Can’t wait.
lacks the amazing writing and soul of the first one
Really? The first one seemed content to just let you do mundane tasks as part of your quests, but I’ve found that this second one makes sure that there’s always something interesting along the way.
Please post your thoughts on Abiotic Factor when you get to it. It’s tied with Grounded as my favorite game of the past few years.
Abiotic Factor
Ending is a little off, but overall an enjoyable simple platformer.
While I’m not a furry, Steam has some interesting titles on offer from Anthrocon, even if you just find animals to be a unique aesthetic choice for characters. I’m an Ace Attorney fan, so I got the demo for “Dragon Detective” which just released yesterday.
In other gaming news, the demo for Trails in the Sky’s remake is out. In typical JRPG fashion, reports say the demo covers about 6 hours of content.
Where are ya seeing these anthro sales? I can’t seem to locate them :c
Sword of the Sea!
Unfortunately I haven’t been able to play much because there’s a spot in what I would call chapter 2 where the game kept crashing and dying. I tried so many things to make it work and nothing came of it.
Finally , last ditch effort, went through the process of upgrading from Mint 21.2 to Mint 22. And now it seems to be working! Yahoo!
Buuuut now I’m going somewhere this weekend and I won’t be able to play, lol. C’est la vie
Same here, but the performances are abysmal on the Deck (15-20 fps on low), and crashes on every map changes. I’m gonna wait next week to see if it goes better with the first few fixes, and then I’ll chose if I refund it or not.
Killing Floor (2009)
Proof that you don’t need good graphics for a good game. It’s gameplay still holds up after all this time and I’ve been diggin its wave based combat again lately.
