Black Mesa(HL1 relive) (finished)
It’s sometimes horrifying scary, and stressful, but it’s so great, I hate the underwater sections, but this game definitely is a masterpiece. When I saw the sky, this game became so good
Rusty Lake: Roots (finished)
I truly intended to play through this game without spoilers, but I failed at about 60% progress. Then I found the puzzle to be not that interesting
Honestly, I didn’t enjoy this game, the puzzles were boring for me. I won’t play any more games in this series.
My Summer Car(just started)
This game is about a Finnish guy and his car. I love the game’s nostalgic 90s atmosphere so much. However, I estimate it will take me about 50-100 hours to complete it. So, I have suspended playing it for now.
Elite: Dangerous(abandoned)
I have complicated feelings about this game. The controls feel so good and realistic. The scenery of flying a spaceship to explore the planet’s surface is breathtakingly beautiful and lonely. When my pilot died from running out of fuel, and then oxygen, the suffocation process, accompanied by the gradually increasing breathing sounds, was both terrifying and strangely captivating.
However, the game has numerous glitches and inconvenient aspects. Unfortunately, My patience ran out after a while, I abandoned it.
What a pity, if this game were further developed and polished, it could have been a true masterpiece.
However, I still recommend it if you’re truly interested in the space simulation genre. Even just playing for 5-20 hours is a worthwhile experience.
I recently played through Disco Elysium and i think it may be time soon for a 2nd run through soon!
I’m trying to find something to play after this. Suggestions?
If you’re able to play it (it’s old), Planescape: Torment was a game that inspired DE
Updating my journal
Cool. Thanks. I’ll put it on the Steam wishlist.
DoDonPachi Resurrection
I ain’t playin’ shit. I haven’t had any gaming time in over a week. I’m very, very sad. Perhaps tonight will be the night? Probably not, but one can hope.
I feel that. I haven’t played anything in over a week either. I’ve had lots of (good) news that’s quite tiring to deal with, plus work has been busy lately and I have family visiting. All good stuff (except maybe work), but still, I miss playing games
I do the vast majority of my gaming from November through February (i.e. “winter”). Outside of that window, I rarely have time to play, and even when I have time, I usually have other things I’d rather do. I probably have another month or so of my gaming season left. Things just didn’t work out this year.
On the flip side, I managed to get about 45 minutes of down time this afternoon unexpectedly. So I fired up Doom (2016), which is the game I’ve focused on this season. I managed to make it to mission 12 out of 13, so I’m pretty close to the end as far as I can tell! It seems likely I’ll be able to finish it in a matter of days, so long as I can find the time!
Putting the finishing touches on Darksiders Genesis with a friend. Game was alright. My advice would be to play the game on Medium or High settings with Ultra textures. I realized too late that I could‘ve played with 50% higher framerate while the game hardly looks any different all this time lol
I also hope to figure out why the fuck I suck so much at Dorfromantik and get a bit more into the game this weekend.
Still thoroughly sucked into Pathfinder: Kingmaker. At least I’ve stopped poking around in side areas now, just focusing on advancing the main story. Also doing companion quests. This might be the longest not-live-service game I’ve ever played? I think I still have at least two more full chapters to go.
Just started Baldurs Gate 3 and have been enjoying it so far. My biggest complaint is that the keyboard map is just off enough from the Owlcats Pathfinder games that I keep screwing up small things.
Also looking at getting back into the system Shock remake since the big box finally showed up yesterday.
Spider-Man 2, PS5. Pretty well-rounded game, highly recommend it
Love that game. Got it as a gift last year, one of my favourites on the console. I mostly play PC but I keep the PS5 plugged in mostly for this game (and I use it as a 4K blu-ray player)
Still playing Daggerfall and The Sims.
With Daggerfall it’s more of a research project rather than a playthrough at the moment, will probably go back to playing soon. As for The Sims… were days in the first game always this short? It really feels like there’s barely any time left after coming back from work and taking care of basic needs. Man, if I wanted more of that I would just focus on my own life.Besides these two I was thinking about going back to Hollow Knight but then I found out I didn’t backup my saves before reinstalling the OS on my desktop. I was half way through the game. I decided to play Medabots: Kabuto for GBA instead.
I played this game a bit before - don’t remember when exactly or for how long though. I also forgot pretty much anything about it besides the Medabot customization system (it’s neat). I’m still not sure whether I like the combat (not being able to select exactly who and where you attack can be a pain) but I got a hang of it and have enough fun to keep playing. It’s also super easy to cheese, at least early on.
Other than that game is pretty dope. Story is simple but fun, music and visuals are great and the already mentioned unit customization add a lot of choice to combat (especially if you’re willing to avoid minmaxing). I honestly didn’t expect to have this much fun with the game.You should give Hollow Knight another shot. It’s seriously such an amazing game. I’ve been thinking of replaying it soon
While I did like what I played so far I just can’t be bothered to start from scratch right now. I’ll get back to it eventually but the backlog beckons and there’s A LOT of titles waiting for their turn.
Re-playing Half-Life 2 with the massive update. Still a great game.
System Shock (the remake) with a cut-down version of the Ironman mod to provide randomization. It’s only slight loot randomization so there’s no major pathing changes but it’s fun nonetheless.
I like randomizers. They add some additional replay value to already good games. I must’ve played through randomized Bloodstained a down times already – and twice that for Super Metroid. (And then there’s the beautiful mess that is randomized Borderlands 2. I don’t think I’m ever going to finish a run but man are they wild.)
Less patient because I saw and I was patient, and more ‘shit I didn’t know about these’ (they’re both free) pokerogue and infinitode 2 have been taking up most of my time lately.
I started playing Monifactory, a modern Gregtech CEu Minecraft modpack. Someone send help.
Basically extra complex Satisfactory, but everything is blocks.
Dead Space. The remake looks great and the sound design is bonkers. I love the utilitarian design of the tech as well. Headphones are recommended.
Dragon Quest 9 on DS (emulated). Prior to this I was playing Kingdom Hearts Recoded also on DS (emulated). My recommendation is to enjoy what retroachievements does to your old favorites, lol (can’t wait for DOSBox integration).
I’m generally a PC gamer but I was playing the steam ports of Kingdom Hearts (they are bad ports) and now I’m just emulating things. Can you believe those lunatics lumped 4 games of achievements into a single set without any order? There’s even duplicate names for things, it’s a wildly sloppy port, lol. Not recommended.
