Apologies for being late on this. It completely slipped my mind! I drove across the country to continue moving stuff up north over the weekend, and just lost track of time I suppose. The threads here now! Expect another one on Sunday. ❤️
I played through DREDGE, which was a cool little indie game. I also played through the DLC The Pale Reach, which added another short side story.
Playing Path of Exile with my spouse. Just returned Pikmin 4 to the library.
Path of Exile! I began with a minion sacrifice build, and while it’s good and I’ve killed all the major basic bosses sustain is hurting so I swapped into a BAMA build, and let me tell you haters of the Maw build, it clears faster than Bama because ignite is broken in Poe.
Playing on my Oldschool Runescape ironman. I’m currently grinding out cooking so I can cook my own sharks. Other than that it’s a bunch of stupid farm runs. >:(
Also playing Necropolis league of Path of Exile. Started with an explosive arrow totem build but it wasn’t great for levelling, so rerolled an exploding minions witch. Much much smoother so far, and should scale right through maps for currency farming. Will see how invested I stay, as I’m waiting patiently for S4 of D4 to hit consoles, some really nice updates, and basically its more approachable than PoE.
Last Epoch
playing offline because that’s where all my stuff is as last I checked the online was a disaster. Other than that, it’s pretty cool ARPG. Though I have some thoughts about some “gearcheck” -type bosses. After ~180h (since beta) or whatever, I’m still thinking it’s a solid 7/10. Fairly enjoyable, but not greatest of all time by any stretch.

It’s completely stupid and I love it. Essentially wannabe-“spööktubers” take a camera and few flashlights into dark, abandoned industrial complex to film something spooky, just to gain views on “Spööktube”. Views gain you money, money buys you gear.
The dives to the industrial complex are very short too, as you can only film so much (90s max, it seems), and the monsters are hella deadly. Either the camera gets filled or everyone is dead in minutes.
The footage can be saved as .webm -videos to desktop, which is GREAT
Last Epoch online issues are resolved now.
good to hear. But, either way all my current stuff is on offline and none of my friends have the game, so moot point.
Yeah, it felt nice to play, but after dumping 8 hours into it two weeks ago I can’t even remember what a single enemy looks like.
Baldurs gate is just so good. Constantly impressed and on my way to act 3!
A little late to the party, but Helldivers II has been my go to. So much silly fun.
Dungeon crawl stone suop
Just finished Rain World.
What a brave game to make. It is not afraid to scare players away. I admit, I ended up having to look up a map in order to find the ending before I threw my PC out the window entirely, but I acknowledge I was not in the right mindset to be playing. You cannot play the game to finish it, you must enjoy the gameplay for what it is, because it is not going to funnel you through the story at all, and you’re going to have a LOT of deaths that feel like total bullshit.
But the atmosphere, and the sound design, and the art, and the creatures, and their AI, and the world building are all top tier. I don’t know if I can recommend anyone play it, but it is a very well made game.
I grinded crab champions super hard to get diamond rank. This game is just too much fun. I pucked up scrap mechanic again after playing it for 1 haur a few years ago. So far we both enjoy it quite a bit.
Playing through Dungeon Siege 3 for the second time. Played through 100% on Xbox 360, now it’s time to do it on PC.
Finished The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles last week.
This may be heresy, but I think I enjoyed these two more than both of the other trilogies.
Maybe it’s the setting or characters or unique mechanics, I don’t know, but I fucking loved every minute of it.
Just started War Thunder and I’m having quite a bit of fun.
Otherwise a bit of Last Epoch, a bit of Rimworld. Chill
After weeks of playing Diablo 4: Season 3 off and on, I’ve finally hit level 100 (yes, I know, I’m incredibly slow at leveling). I’ve got one objective left to complete the season, but right now I’m focusing on continuing to level up my glyphs before I go showdown with Duriel or Uber Lilith.
I’ve been really interested in Ghostwire: Tokyo for a while now, especially since it’s made by the same developer at The Evil Within. Even though the game needs a little polishing (it took me way too long to get the controller settings adjusted to something I could comfortably use; idk what they were thinking with the defaults), I am having so much fun with it. But I kinda had to stop reading all the animals’ minds for a little bit because it was making me sad. Hearing how some of them are confused and missing their owners was hitting me right in the feels. I’ve also been playing it with Japanese audio, which is really great and immersive, except for in the boss fights when they’re just casually dropping lore but I’m too busy trying to stay alive to read the subtitles. Right now, I’ve finished up the main story line and am now just mopping up the rest of the map. But there’s a lot, so I might be floating around Tokyo for a while.
