My corporate overlords decided I get some vacation during this time of year, it being the holidays and all that. With some free days on my hands I'm planning to mess around with a couple games.

First up is Millennia a 4X game kinda like Civ. The twist is there are different ages that go off the rails from real history—so you can get a steampunk age or one where aliens invade and stuff like that. I barely touched it when it came out but now, after 7 updates, I figure I will give it a proper try.

Then theres Songs of Conquest, an indie game with amazing pixel art that’s sorta like the old Heroes of Might and Magic games- I might play this with a friend early next year as well.

EDIT: OK im feeling a bit tired so Im just gonna play my current Crusader Kings 3 save till I go 2 bed. Happy Holidays everyone

What are the fine folks on Hexbear playing obama

I just picked up a little indie game called Dungeons of Hinterberg. So far, it's pretty neat! Got some of that Persona/Stardew social stuff along with 3D zelda (pre-BOTW) dungeons and puzzles. The combat isn't great, but the vibes of the game are interesting and I'm having a really good time with it. The story seems like it might go some interesting places with this town getting exploited by a tourism industry.

i'm still playing god of war ragnarok... finally beat the main game and now i'm doing valhalla which feels disappointingly easy

Oldschool Runescape. Still doing Leagues V in my slow fashion. About to unlock my third area and seventh relic.

Steamworld Heist 2! I played it a bunch over the summer and I'd like to finish it before the year ends

Started the mega man X series. Heard it’s pretty good until 5 but it drops off after.

Huh i played this but while game itself is actually quite good, i think the pixel art is horrible, both shapes and colours are blurry and i can't even understand what i see for quite a lot of times. I seen a lot of bad pixel art (and some good) in last few years but this one is one of the worst ones.

I could probably link a dozen games with (in my opinion worse pixel art). I myself like it quite a bit and have 0 problem discerning what Im seeing, but thats the thing with art—highly subjective.
