Caves of Qud
I cannot recommend it enough
I’ve been waiting forever for this to get a real price cut but instead it just got 50% more expensive. I guess I will just have to be patient for another decade.
Apparently its still in early access until next year. Didn’t even know that until yesterday. So dont hold your breath it will be a bit. I got it as a gift for Christmas forever ago and am just now coming back to it. Dont play the regular mode first, play role playing so you can save your character until you know what you’re doing. You will die.
NetHack 3.6.7
I recently looped back to rimworld.
I was playing a bunch of frostpunk 2, then a little frostpunk 1, and then bounced between the two of them. But in the end all gaming comes back to rimworld…
This time you’re gonna finish the colony.
My co worker keeps telling me to get the witcher
The story and the world are amazing. Combat is a bit clunky but not too bad.
I’ve been playing the Ballionaire demo, which is pretty damn fun.
Judgement, it’s made by the same people who me see the Yakuza, Like a Dragon series. It takes place in the same seeing with the same family philosophy. It’s currently on a70% of sale on stem so I got that and it’s sequel with DLC for like $30.
I’ve been addicted to WarFrame for months and before that it was Wayfinder but that was pre 1.0 so I’d like to go back into that one when I can peel myself away from WF
Good luck on your Warframe journey! Where are you in the story right now? I dropped it after the railjack came out, and am tempted to go back and see some of the new stuff. I just don’t have that much time and patience for grinding all the resources now, maybe I’ll just see a playthrough or something.
I’ve got the story all caught up. I had dropped out shortly after the new war was released and this time I decided that I wanted to actually understand the game (I usually follow guides because of how many game modes, resources and modding can be done) so I tackled all of the campaign missions back to back and then got my standing at level 4 to max with everyone and that was a DRAG. But I’m glad I did it because I’ve got tons of cool gear to mess with and I’ve been having fun swapping weapons and frames to see which abilities are fun with which gun or melee types. I don’t normally look into meta guides and prefer to just grab a weapon and see what feels fun but it took a while for me to get that way with WF because there are just so many mechanics to get overwhelmed by.
I have an anti-recommendation for Pathfinder Kingmaker.
They almost have a good RPG here but the combat is so frequent and the encounter design is just wack. The second to last dungeon is the worst I have ever experienced.
Normally I stop once I’m not feeling it. I’m not really sure why I pushed through here.
Sifu is a fun martial-arts focused game. If you liked the combat of Sleeping Dogs and Batman Arkham, it might be your kind of game. It’s currently on sale for $20: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2138710/Sifu/
Monster Hunter Rise to have a MH fix until Wilds runs at more than 30 fps
Played the beta last night and yeah, it got me in the mood for monster hunting again. Time to finally go play Sunbreak since I bought it ages ago, but never played through it again (bought the base game first on the Switch)
I wanted to get away from the longsword in Rise but somehow I always gravitate towards it… Wilds is a blast, I hope they get their shit together in the next four months.
Good hunting!
The hordes of hel demo. Well polished reverse bullet hell, but maybe too well polished for the Devs to match the level of content of something like vampire survivors. But the mechanics are crisp and it’s really fun.
Rainworld is a masterpiece
I’ve started playing satisfactory.
That was a mistake…
I came back to Cyberpunk 2077 recently. First time touching the game since the 2.0 update and I have to say I’m a bit mixed on the changes (I actually reinstalled the legacy version to make sure I’m not just misremembering things).
I’ll probably post a longer write up once I’m done with my playthrough (or at least do more testing and comparison between both version) but for now my main takeaway is this: I like the new content and all the technical improvements, gameplay, while better from a design and balance perspective, lost some of the fun for me in the process. It’s still a great title and I enjoy it quite a bit but yeah… I miss some of the old unbalanced jank of a game we had before.
I’ve been playing Eldritch. Friggin frustrating game. Ok, just one more go.
