Have you been spending hours trying to pass a level? Or maybe you are completely addicted to a newly bought game. Do you have a question about a game or would like to share something else? In the Weekly Discussion Thread, you can do it all!
Please don’t forget to use the spoiler tag as soon as you start talking about a storyline.
I’m still playing BG3: I’ve just recently started Act 3, and I am still loving the game, though I’m finding it harder to stay focused at this point. I’m also starting to think about how to play a more evil character in my next playthrough without being a total asshole, but we’ll see how that comes along.
Cyberpunk 2077, really love the story and character interactions. Still buggy as hell though lol.
Still after all this time? What platform?
Forza for exactly 30 minutes. And I won’t continue.
Finally beat Sea of Stars, and have gone back to play Megaman Battle Network Collection, starting with #1. Definitely not the best entry in the series, but it’s got good bones. Looking forward to getting to #2.
I bought the Bioshock remastered trilogy and I just finished Bioshock 1 and 2 recently. Both great games, but I’m partial to 1. I wanted to take a break from the trilogy, so I started the ghostbusters game that is voiced by the original cast. It has been fun and it’s great hearing the classic songs and voices and seeing the 80s tech, but dang it, I started Infinite today and I think I’ll be pulled right back in to the Bioshock universe.
Just a fantastic trilogy with each containing such memorable stories.
Currently going around between Assassin‘s Creed Unity, NFS Heat, and Tales of Arise.
ACU sometimes feels like I‘m not in control (and stealth as such random) and the parkour controls do a lot of stuff I don‘t want it to, but the story‘s nice and Paris is beautiful to jump around in.
NFS Heat is also beautiful especially in HDR, the driving feels good enough. Biggest downside to me is the cop AI, if there‘s no ramp to jump off of, they keep rubberbanding back onto me and it‘s annoying. The map can also feel very empty.
Lastly, Tales of Arise. I love the characters and the story, but I‘ll never warm up to Tales‘ combat. It‘s the best iteration yet, just doesn‘t click with me. Says a lot about the characters and the story that I‘m going through regardless. Another nitpick is that cities could really use more dynamic. Lots of wax figures. Aside from that, it looks great (after a few ini tweaks) and runs great!
My SO and I just played Stray after coming out of both Plague Tale parts and boy,do I tell you that was the weirdest crossover.
Now we at least kow what the post-credit scene in Plague Tale: Requiem meant.
Darktide
I played a bit at release. Have they finished the game yet?
I didn’t play during release after it’s poor reception, but I’m having alot of fun with it atm. And licked it up for $38AUD, a good bargain imo.
Got back into Destiny 2. In a week I did the season quest and got to level 76 so far. Eris is good when she’s vindictive.
Also playing some Eastward. Sam is cute.
My partner and I are chest-deep into BG3. We had a third teammate, but he got too busy with life…and wasn’t really a team player to begin with. But we’re absolutely loving the game and have happily become unproductive members of society since we started playing a few weeks ago.
I’m back to For Honor and Factorio, two games I gave a go when they came out and haven’t played since, and loving then
A couple days of Stardew Valley every couple days IRL Also picked up a really fun chill-ish game called Unrailed.
Gave Fallout New Vegas another Go, started it 10 years ago but never finished it for some reasons, life happened blah blah… I am very excited to take a few hours out of every week for it!
Decided to get back into vanilla Factorio, i definitely like it more
I gave 0 A.D. a try. Libre 3D AoE “clone” that looks better than AoE4. Feels really good though tbf I never really got into AoE
