Well I caved and started a new Minecraft world, but I’m not sure I like my seed. Playing the original Moving Out with my kindergartner and he’s surprising good at it.
Playing Disco Elysium for the first time and it’s really good. Reminds me a lot of Planescape: Torment. Really a breath of fresh air after Fallout 4.
Fallout 4 had fun gameplay, but my god did the writing suck. There were a few good bits, but overall it was garbage. The 4-options-only dialogue system blew anyway, but the options were always “Yes”, “No”, “Meh/Sarcastic Yes”, and “Tell me more!” It was terrible.
At least in Skyrim you were a nobody that everyone wanted a piece of, you lack of internal motivation was understandable. The conflicts were between the groups were rooted in a history you woke up in the middle of. There were literally chaos gods (daedra) fucking shit up. For the love of god Bethesda, please just make the next Fallout game an actual RPG.
Oh, and I also need to circle back around to Dave the Diver now that the Godzilla DLC is out.
I didn’t know DayZ had PvE servers. I like to watch DayZ streamers sometimes, but I could never play it PvP. That kind of thing is too stressful for me. I might have to check out PvE.
I just hope they haven’t abandoned it completely. But it would be nice to hear from the mods about the issue you raised. Would be a pity to lose such an active community.
Like the old super nintendo rpg featuring Ness? Gosh why the rush? Seriously tho that’s a neat one. I played not many years ago for the first time. It’s wild seeing so much of what I love in games so old. Even if we owned a super Nintendo back when and I logged absurd hours…
Super Mario RPG was major for me, I got it because it said Mario. Hated it for the first few nights, loved it for years. Equally realized rpg was a genre of games.
I’ve got 50% completion on Marvel’s Spider-Man. The swinging mechanic and combat are great and never wear out their welcome. What gets old is the unending cycle of finishing two missions then running into someone who starts yet another collect-athon with, “Help me find my lost pigeons strewn about the city,” or “Fight five groups of enemies in each New York neighborhood”.
I’m playing Blacktail, it came out last year and went under the radar but it’s really good. It’s based on classic fairy tales before they were disneyfied.
Finally got around to playing Oxenfree II after finishing Dave The Diver. Slow progress as I’m getting distracted left and right and center by other games, but I like how they kept the semi-creepy atmosphere from Oxenfree. Really neat presentation, and I love the voice actress for Riley, she did great work.
Just wish the game had more characters than me and my sidekick, atl east so far.
Forza Horizon 5. Just got all I could for the Retrowave event. Couldn’t get the DeLorean or the F50, but I do have an extra F40 now and the GMC Syclone. Kinda missed some of the events due to working on other things.
Also the Hyundai N Vision 74 is a meh EV. No way to gear it for more top speed, and the Porsche Taycan is way better.
I guess someone else could make a monthly or weekly thread until we see what happens. I generally don’t have a lot to say, so I just lurk most of the time. So it’s nice to have posts like that to have an excuse to contribute to the conversation!
I decided to start playing The Sims 3 again over the weekend, and I played Morrowind for a few hours as well. Not sure which one will win out for my attention for the next while, I guess we’ll see!
