I got caught by Neverwinter and Star Trek Online. Money-sucking leeches that they are, I still do the f2p grind…
I recommend staying away from f2p live service games. They’re evil.
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.
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.
Troubleshooting Simulator. Hopefully, Far Cry 3 a couple of hours from now.
Edit: For anyone else who is having issues with the UPlay version of Far Cry 3 and hopes to find a sliver of hope here: I utterly failed. The game refuses to work. I even tried dxvk and vgvoodoo. The only “solution” I found (short of just buying the Steam version) is running it on integrated graphics (780M).
Back on my Minecraft habit. Experimenting with pale oak logs a little, but mostly branch mining after work to chill.
Half life 1 with rtx mod
We’ve made it to level 19 in Pantheon.
Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem (the Japan only one)
I was going to try to blind ironman like FE11, on the first Hard difficulty setting, but while losing my healers in chapter 2 and 3x due to silly boss moving and ambush reinforcements was funny, losing two seemingly important characters in turn 2, because of a Thief you can’t kill in 1 turn without using a staff, was not. (They ended up not saying anything in the postbattle cutscene anyways, lol)
I’ll still try not to reset, as per usual in FE (I LIKE losing units and trying out replacements), but not if I lose out on recruitable characters because I didn’t figure out the puzzle solution for the first 3 turns. I did kill Matthis because he suicided into me, but fuck that guy.
DoDonPachi Resurrection
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.
I’m hoping my buddies get on so we can actually finish grounded this weekend. It’s like pulling teeth trying to get 4 adult men with jobs and families to actually pull together and finish a co-op game lol.
