I myself have been playing alot of rdr2 and beamng
Baldurs’s Gate 3. I’m in 70 hours and I love IT so far
I really wanna try Baldurs gate myself might get it on steam sale prehaps two games I really wouldn’t mind trying are baldurs gate and disco elysium
Both are amazing RPGs. Highly recommend checking them out.
Might check them out then I’ll probably look at getting them at the Christmas steam sale I almost certainly want to check out disco elysium
I was told at some point to pirate disco elysium because the original devs got removed from making royalties on any sales prior to the release of the game. Does anyone know if this is a credible statement?
Yea, basically what happened was some crooked businessman took over their company by some very fucked up methods, ousted the people who made the game and stole their IP. This is the most justified case of piracy is good.
I can’t find anything from the devs stating that either.
Bear in mind, BG3 is more much like your typical cRPG while Disco Elysium is more akin to Planescape: Torment but without combat.
Both are extremely well-written, and I would say Disco Elysium is arguably one of the best written games period, but don’t go into DE expecting a whole lot of combat - it’s much more like a visual novel than a cRPG.
You just made DE a whole lot more appealing to me.
De sounds awesome I would love another well written game like rdr2 to sink my teeth into and get tons of hours out of and this sounds like that sorta game

I’m doing an evil playthrough now and finding various things I missed from the first playthrough. But oof, I feel really awful about the horrible things the game lets you do. 😅
Risk of Rain 2, such an underrated game. It’s been eating up all my free time lately.
Absolute banger once you get a hang of it.
I’ve never heard of risk of rain is it any good? Might check it out
Its good, but I had to download mods to learn what the items were and what they did. Take a look at R2ModMan
Alright ty I’ll make sure to look into it one day
Honestly, I started replaying Skyrim to see if I can actually finish the damn thing lol
Oh man every so often I boot it up with fresh mods! I love that game so much.
I remember when it launched, I never heard of it, didn’t see any promotional material and just bought it out of curiosity. Was an incredible surprise and put so much hours into it
I was a huge fan of oblivion and I remember staying up into the early hours at uni waiting for the crack to be released. I put 16 hours in on the first day and never really looked back.
Currently wrestling with whether or not I can justify spending £800 on my pc to play starfield…
Eh, Ive got a 1080 ti and starfield runs terribly. I’m averaging 24 to 30 fps regardless if it’s high or low settings. So maybe wait. Not sure what you’re thinking to buy but starfield has pretty poor optimisation and if it’s a minor bump I’m not sure you’ll see much gain.
My graphics card isn’t horrible actually to be fair. I’ve got an RTX 2070 but it’s on a 10 year old AM3 motherboard with DDR3 in it so it’s time to replace cpu/mobo/ram.
At the moment it’s not playable for me, I forced myself to play the first few hours but speech visual lags behind the audio and I’m stuck waiting for 10seconds with every sentence. I know loading screens aren’t great for anyone but a solid minute for each screen wasn’t doable either.
Zelda Wind Maker, on WiiU sadly. My gf got this console and game, so I just wanna beat it and move onto another Zelda games.
I got phantam, skyward, botw. Saving botw for last. I beat oot and mm back in the days, and just beat twilight.
I know a lot of people like them, but you just listed a lot of my least favourite Zelda games. Wind Waker (before the remake, I heard there were a lot of QoL changes that I had issue with from the original?), Phantom Hourglass and Skyward Sword. I would’ve beat my head against a desk if you said Spirit Tracks.
But people do enjoy these, so I hope you like them much more than I did.
Yeah so far I’m not fan of it. Plus playing on WiiU pad sucks.
Bloodborne has sucked me back in. Super satisfying gameplay.
I also replayed Re7 and Re8, just fantastic together.
I love both of those games so much. RE7 as the spooky RE experience I was too young to have when the first 2 came out, and RE8 as a campy horror movie (that spawned amazing memes on the subreddit before reddit went to shit) that is extremely fun to play. It’s also short enough that you can blast through again and again trying to beat your last time or trying out different guns… Loved it. Though it was cheesey, I did love the Winters’ story by the end—even made me tear up a lil
Been playing Skyrim and Control. Also, playing Baldurs Gate 1 on Switch from time to time.
Controls quite fun ngl I got it for free as part of the epic games promotion I’ve played it a couple of times and I’ve enjoyed it never got round to completing the campaign sadly I think I got to the maintenance area before having to call it quits
Factorio sucked me back in
I’m considering giving factorio ago I think its on my steam wishlist I’ve heard of it from YouTube looks good
Make sure to have enough time because you won’t see the sun for a while
Trepang2 - Absolute FPS gem
Starfield - Hated it
Brotato - Casual quick game
Dorfromantic - Chill casual quick game
I’ve never tried brotato may give it ago although vampire survivors may be up your valley its in the same genre I’ve been playing a couple rounds every so often on my phone
Vampire survivors is in my library and liked it too, but I prefered Brotato. More variation, your selection matter more and no 360 weapons you can overpower.
Have about 200 hours of Valheim logged with my wife. I’m honestly feeling burned out, but she’s still into it, so I’m trying my best to remain interested. I love this game, but we’ve been playing of so much.
Thats nice though! I wish i could play it longer aswell but my brain just gives up once the final boss is beaten
I loved it until I didn’t.
Don’t remember how far I got, maybe 2/3 of the biomes, then I burned out and got bored. That was a while back, and flattening the land was really glitchy. I’d have an area perfectly flattened and ready to commence building, save it all down, come back next day, and it’d all gone to shit again. I got sick of trying. It became more of a grind just to get back to my last save point than I wanted, and gave up on it.
Did it ever get a full release?
I played it last year right before mistlands
Contraband Police - it’s like Papers Please, but since it’s in first person, it’s more complex - you have to manage the whole border crossing area with the few staff you have, you have a car that you have to manually drive to a supply shop and to drop prisoners and contraband off at, and you can get ambushed along the way or at your base, where you’re manually be shooting at smugglers with guns you buy.
Shadows of Doubt - A game where you play as a detective in a city and you have to solve cases (sometimes murders) and often end up committing crimes yourself along the way. A lot of cases solved used by matching faces to names to fingerprints to voices to jobs to blood type, eye colour, hair colour, age, and so on. Extremely addictive and often hilarious, despite how buggy this early access game is.
Dicey Dungeons - A roguelike deckbuilder with 6 different classes where you roll dice against cards with different effects and your enemy does the same to you. I don’t love roguelikes and really don’t like deck games but this one is really appealing, and has a great soundtrack. The different classes play through a LOT of different “episodes” where the rules of the game change.
also playing a lot of Heroes of the Storm every goddamn night
im replaying celeste for the 10th time with a dumb dialogue mod. it’s great
I might give celeste ago one day I got it for free as part of an epic games promotion I’ve got a massive backlog of games
Finished Terraria for the first time since I got some 10 years ago. Now I’m replaying Grim Dawn, excited for the new expansion pack.
I’m in persona 5 royale whenever I’m solo and just finishing up season 1 of Diablo 4
Persona’s really, really big (based of persona 4 I thought I knew when it would finish, but my guess was way off) and diablo’s doing a good job of being “video game golf”
Just finished P5R a few weeks ago. Loved it!
I started Starfield and dropped it after about 3ish hours (happy for you if you liked it, I just couldn’t find anything interesting there), beat Lies of P (could be the best of the non-Bandai soulsbourne games), and just started up The Lamplighters League (a fun X-com style game that’s good, but REALLY poorly optimized, so buyer beware).
Looking forward to Spider-man 2 though, only a few more weeks!
Oo I really wanna get lies of p I saw it on the front page of steam and it looks awesome
It’s a ton of fun, and I hope you check it out! As an fyi on the combat, it is very perfect block centric like Seikiro, which I know is not everyone’s favorite Fromsoft game. I think the demo that’s out there gives you a pretty substantial preview though, so feel free to judge for yourself :)
I will probably check it out probably look into it at the Christmas sale
Diablo 3 caught my attention again recently with the new and probably last season. Pretty mindless most of the time but it’s therapeutic in a way
