I'm playing stardew. Apparently the 1.6 update is a big deal but it's like my 2nd time playing it and I never got past the second year so I know fuck all about the game. It's at once a fun chill relaxing game and also very hectic getting all my farm chores done in a day. I have a friend who actually knows what they're doing and it's very fun to insist on having them help around the farm but not be allowed to teach me the deep lore.
Hell yeah, I'm back on my Stardew Valley bullshit. If you ever need guidance, check the wiki, it's very comprehensive (although it might be missing some of the 1.6 stuff still). I haven't played it in a couple years, so it's nice!
I'm revisiting New Vegas
Hell yeh
hell yeah same, via Viva New Vegas
I'm taking a break after old world blues made me face the wall (of text).
It's been a good 7/8 years since I did a "full" playthrough of the game and it's nice to have a reflection of my improved understanding, to know why Caesar is a big dialectic dumb dumb rather than just nodding my head like umm yeah, I guess it really is inevitable the NCR be destroyed.
I went through Mega Man X and was probably going to go through them up to 4, from what I hear the series took a nose dive after that and they even made a 3D one? Gotta pace them a little bit because it's brutal on my hands.
X4 is really good. If you play buster only and don't abuse weapon weaknesses, the bosses are some of the best in 2D platformers if that's your thing
I was like "What, you're doing a Buster only run? The Argon Buster sucks!" and then I realized you were talking about Megaman, not the X4 space 4x game.
The 3D ones are ass. I don't remember 5 being bad but I also just don't remember it.
X4 is amazing and X5 is okay. 6-8 are pretty ass though.
5 is fine enough, but after that you should just skip ahead to the Zero games.
Helldivers mainly
Even with all the chuds and chodes
Game is fun
It seems like if you have a good group it is a blast. I need to grab it at some point.
Disco Elysium, I can see why its popular around here lol.
Helldivers II: Just picked this up to play with some friends from a former job. It's a ton of fun with a good group, and the hit-you-over-the-head-with-a-hammer Western imperialist satire adds a lot.
Soulstone Survivors: Vampire Survivors with more active combat and build variety.
Dead Rock Galactic Survivor: Vampire Survivors with mining and aiming.
Splatoon 3: Tracking down the final uncollected palette chips in Side Order. Team Baby Chicks will win this weekend, mark it down.
Still mucking around with my old mmorpgs, I have Everquest, Ultima Online, and Final Fantasy XI in rotation. I tried to play some MGS Peace Walker but either I suck or the controls are wonky and I ended up not really liking it. Feel like as I get older RPGs like mmos or JRPGs are more my speed now.
no man's sky, i've been trying my best to polish up our hexbear space commune
yogthosgrad was attacked by the space feds, it was a bit of an ordeal to sort out but they should be out of our hair at least for now
Mario Wonder. I find it's kind of a weekend only game cause it's hard to play when tired after work
bought darkest dungeon (1) cause it was $3 and its been great, no deaths yet so overconfidence will definitely be my slow and insidious killer
It's usually bosses or mini bosses that you aren't prepared for that will get most of your deaths. I've never actually beaten DD because I get burnt out and then always start a new campaign when I come back to it, but it's a lot of fun.
Been playing some modded Minecraft. Working on my rail network . I automated iron production but need far more gravel supply to keep up with the amount of iron for rail and machinery for more factories. The productive forces must grow
What modpack are you using?
I'm playing Create Astral. I've been on that pack for a year, haven't gotten too far because I've put some restrictions on myself and not played super actively. I really wanna get back to Forge packs to try Hex and some other mods, though.
Games? I just fix Proton for fun.
I am up to 3 ships with victory cleared on FTL Advanced Edition on Normal difficulty. This was impossible for me even a few years ago.
Im still playing pokerogue, my current run started with a clodsire, cinderbunny and a turtwig all with good stat and natures thanks to eggs and catching them.
I think this week im going to do a endless to see how far i get, with a meowstick with good ivs i got from an egg
Pathfinder: Kingmaker. I started playing as a ranger but it was boring so I switched to conjurer and now it's more visually interesting.
Also Mordheim: City of The Damned, to get hyped to play WFRP in the near future.
Yakuza 0
First Yakuza?
Yep. It's a blast
I've been playing Stationeers. It's interesting but also frustrating. It's a space survival crafting game which focuses hard on realism, especially gas handling. So you need to make an atmosphere with the right proportions of nitrogen and oxygen to breathe in your base, and you need a breathable atmosphere to open your spacesuit helmet to eat and drink, and you also need to add some carbon dioxide to the atmosphere to grow plants, and you also need to keep the atmosphere at the right temperature range for both the plants and yourself.
I found the Mohole in FlightGear
Thinking about picking up osrs because I need another mindless (see: fun) Skinner box in my life
I just bought a PS5 and playstation plus yesterday so I'm going between the FF7 remake for when I want to pay attention, rocket league when I feel like getting angry, and Far Cry 6 for while listening to a podcast.
Tangentially related, I learned today that the seemingly chill guy next to my stall at the Farmer's market that sells homemade fudge streams COD and gambling on kick almost daily. He also sells basically embezzled golf balls under the table for dirt cheap lmao.
Elden Ring, Darkest Dungeon pvp, Patron, and might dip into Hinterland for a bit. My attention span isn't quite there and I'm just lazing about on my day off. My issue is wanting to play a little of everything at once, despite not being into games that much. Anyway, off to hop into Kingdom: New Lands.
feel free to shame me, but Diablo 4 since it went on game pass
I needed the nostalgia
I just loaded 450 mods in to Kenshi. Bought a wreck in The Hub, repaired it, plopped a couple of straw beds and a chest down. Currently breaking rocks and stealing stuff to get some cats and get my starting characters strength up.

I found this game on GGN searching for point-and-click games. For me, it hits just right. I'm not to far in, but it's extrmely well done from the prospective of someone who grew up on 90's adventure games.
Helldivers II- Get on for a few matches and have fun. Thankfully no overtly cringe teammates on random yet. Got to play with a friend from an old job and it was a blast.
Rimworld- Base game was on sale on steam and its been fun so far.
Baldur's Gate 3- Been sitting in my backlog for a while. Opened up the game two or three times and never got past the character creator. Finally started a week ago and its been good. Feels a bit intimidating with the amount of information available, but I also haven't had any trouble in the battles I've had so far.
Armored Core 6, really loving the game loop so far. Working on beating the chapter 1 boss right now
Doing another Rimworld dip with the new DLC out. Naturally, haven't touched that at all yet, but I finally realized how absolutely piss-easy it is to pirate the DLCs and still use the workshop, so I'm enjoying an even more streamlined process of modding it until it takes ten minutes to boot.
My current run is a monastery of pantheistic star-worshippers and I'm just taking it real easy and focusing on the architecture. Monasteries are actually a great pattern for a rimworld base, because they're already kind of defensible compounds with lots of different rooms next to each other.

Tabletop, DnD, board games, and minecraft. Also Animal Crossing.
