Playing a lot of Jump Space and Deep Rock Galactic with friends.
Single player, Baldur’s Gate 3 continues to be my long haul game, and Brotato and Balatro remain my “20 free minutes to game” games
Finally finished Death Stranding. On to Hades 2.
Just finished Powerwash Simulator 2. Now trying to get my The Outer Worlds savegame from the Switch working on the Steam Deck to play the few DLC missions I skipped back then.
Cyberpunk. I started it a few months ago, got bored about ten hours in and put it down, played Prey (which was fuckin great!) then I went back to cyberpunk and got the taste. I’m almost 200 hrs in at the mo and loving it. Got a couple more jobs to do then I’m starting the Dogtown stuff. Impressive how well it plays on steam deck.
Dead Cells 😍
I’m about 90 hours into Silksong. Before that, it was hollow knight.
Until now, I’d never played metroidvanias or souslikes - mostly idle games, FPS’ and RPGs. I might get more into them now. I’ve been eyeing animal well.
Assassins creed: valhalla for the big stints.
And knights of tight spaces for when I think it’s a short stint and ends up playing it for a few hours.Ball X Pit
Had very little time to play, so it’s:
- Brotato
- Snø
- ΔV - Rings of Saturn
Getting back into FFXIV
Mostly 9Kings. One round is typically 20 mins, which suits me
Playing Metroid Dread right now, not having much fun though. Might quit and start play Ratchet and clank a rift apart tomorrow if things doesn’t get any better.
I’ve played it on the deck way back. Got through about 60% of the game iirc. Then it just got crazy for me and I’ve used a trainer to finish it. For the story. Not getting it one bit. I just can’t invest that much time in each exaggerated boss.
My biggest complaint is that the emmi zones are annoying and, time-wise are about two thirds of the game. And honestly the zones in between doesn’t feel great either and the three bosses I found so far are kinda repetitive too.
So you’re in the beginning of the game. It’s quite extensive. I share your sentiment. Though it does seem like it might not be for you. There’s a lot of returning to previous areas in the game.
Well, I’m four hours in, that should be plenty of time for a game to be good at that point. I’ve played many metroidvanias that are far better than this game and all those were great from minute one. Guess this game isn’t for me :)
I still have Samus Return on my 3Ds, hope the emmi thing isn’t a staple of the series, will check it out in the future.
Which others? I’m curious 🤔 I’ve really enjoyed Prince of Persia the Lost Crown for example.
My three all time favs are Guacamelee 1 and 2 and Shadow Complex. The combat and traversal of the formers is so much fun. And the settings and 2.5D if the later are so cool. Also enjoyed Castlevania symphony of the night and hollow knight quite a bit, albeit the traversal in this game is so so.
I absolutely love Metroid Dread, sorry to hear you’re not enjoying it much.
Grapple Dog and Yakuza 5. Grapple dog is more short sessions than Yakuza, so I’m playing that a bit more.
Megabonk and Peglin
Recently finished Ultros. Started playing The Drifter.
