The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion

Have you been spending hours trying to pass a level? Or maybe you are completely addicted to a newly bought game. Do you have a question about a game or would like to share something else? In the Weekly Discussion Thread, you can do it all!

Please don’t forget to use the spoiler tag as soon as you start talking about a storyline.

Phegan,

Back to no man’s sky on my deck. Haven’t played in about a year so I have a couple content updates to explore

FLYGOD2x,

I’ve decided to get specifics trophies on Kingdom Hearts 1FM, the no new gear one and the no continue one. If I’m motivated enough, I’ll try the platinum but nothings for sure.

Been playing Astral Ascent which is a gem of a roguelite that came out recently.

bigboismith,

Started playing MGS:V again and slowly becoming depressed that there hasn’t come anything better in the last seven years

Re4 remake scratches some of the metal gear itch

delitomatoes,

Just completed Cocoon, short game, excellent 9/10. Puzzles aren’t too hard but mind bending. It doesn’t get quite as tedious compared to other puzzle games once you solved it in your head and they break it down to smaller chunks.

Only had 1 difficult puzzle in the entire run near the end, because of a long section between revisiting a certain area.

OhmsLawn,

On mobile, Shattered Pixel Dungeon. It’s brutal. I’ve made it down five levels once or twice. I’m determined to win with the fighter before I start with another class.

nutsack,

porn. dicks mostly.

Deestan,

Picked up The Messenger for another run. Since I got 100% achievements last time I thought it would be a breeze this time. Nope. 214 deaths so far.

caseofthematts,

Just picked it up on Switch based off the strength of Sea of Stars!

Balinares,

Finally getting into Disco Elysium after a false start last year. Great game, spectacular writing, though it does require a little bit of investment.

dan_the_accountant,

I put about three hours into it. It’s obviously a well put together game that a lot of love went into, but it just ended up being way too much dialogue for me. Most people love the game though, hope you enjoy it!

sevan,

I got stuck a few hours into it and quit trying. I really want to love this game and play it through multiple times, but it just doesn’t make sense to me and I don’t want to read any guides or spoilers. I want whatever path I take through the game to be my path, but it isn’t working for me.

Balinares,

I had the same problem on my first try! I’d been trying to do everything and talk to everyone about everything and just drowned in words.

On my second try, though, I took a different approach: what if I am this guy, just want to get the job done, and only do stuff for the purpose of trying to progress the case? That worked great for me, and the game is structured so this still takes you through much of its contents – only, now, there is a purpose to it.

So, thanks, friend! I am indeed now enjoying this game, and I hope you are enjoying whatever you are playing also.

Backpack Battles - pretty fun Super Auto Pets alternative

MilitantAtheist,

Escape from Tarkov

PieMePlenty,

Started Brotato as a break from Starfield. It’s… a good distraction to say the least.

still play starfield, but play skyrim when i am at my gfs place. forgot how clunky the movement is when compared to starfield. still destroying in my backyard baseball league with a new team of super dinger hitters, cod and fortnite with my friends too. also playing gh3 on ps2 sometimes, takes for fucking ever to save the game

sevan,

I’ve been playing Starfield almost daily since release on Game Pass. I would much rather play on PC with mods, but its a super mediocre game and I’m not ready to pay anything close to full price for it when I can play on Game Pass. I really hope they release some better content for it over the next year or two and then sell me a complete edition on PC and I’ll start again with mods to get rid of the BS if they haven’t already done so in future patches.

calabast,

I finally got a steam deck and I can’t decide what to play on it. Most recently I dusted off Hand of Fate 2 and I’m having fun with that all over again.

sevan,

When I got my Steam Deck a few months ago, I spent the first week or so just modding Skyrim so I could play it on yet another device. Then I played it a ton until I finally took a break for some other games.
