I was on E2M6 before work got extremely hectic and I put it on pause for a while. Now that I’m finally getting back to it, I love it so much. It combines two things I love: boomer shooters and Warhammer. To extend my playthrough, I'm playing it how I play classic Doom: Boltgun start only, no saves (death means I start the whole level over), and Exterminatus difficulty. It's gotten challenging but I love the mastery that comes from playing a map from the beginning again.
Any boomer shooter fan is doing themselves a disservice if they don't check it out.
Playing Days Gone love the story and gameplay
I've been running through Into the Radius. It's in the easily top 3 VR games for me, it's does a incredible job at immersing you into the world which is basically like Stalker. Coming back from harder missions I've felt mentally exhausted just from how stressful it can get. But that stress is so addictive.
Jagged Alliance 3 - very good sequel to JA2, more of the same with enough tweaks to make it fun and the campaign has thrown enough curve balls to keep me interested. Like the original it doesn’t hold your hand, which is good. Strongly recommend if you liked the original
I just started with Cassette Beasts, as it was finally on sale on Switch and I cannot get myself to play a Pokemon game on anything but a portable console. Just feels wrong.
It is... the strictly better Pokemon game, as people told me it'd be. I keep looking for issues compared to the classic games, but no, they did it all slightly~notably better. And wow is the soundtrack fantastic. And wow is the theming incredibly well done, with the walkman as the battle menu as the cherry on top.
Highly recommended. I cannot say much about the story so far, but what I've seen is indeed interesting.
Sea of thieves and battlebit
How is Sea of Thieves these days? Always been curious if I should convince the group to pick it up.
Trackmania! I'm trying to get better and I've been playing for the past few months, I have mostly silvers on the summer campaign now!
I'm playing some old school Black Ops II Zombies with some friends. Buried is such a great zombie map!
Oxygen Not Included
Remnant 2 pretty good so far. Also really... don't start your run on nightmare difficulty. Not so fun.
My mom got me Bloodborne for my birthday and I'm loving it. I'm not that far in, but it's great.
My partner got me Far Cry 6 for my birthday, I've really been enjoying it
Battlebit and Trackmania mostly right now
Dying light 2. Second time playing through, going for the "good" ending this time.
I don't typically play much video games but this time I decided to start up an old one that I never finished. Tenchu fatal shadows. I'm also trying to play through Evo search for Eden
Just got out of almost 3 years of nonstop genshin. I'm currently looking for a game to mindlessly 100%, like an assassin's creed game for example.
It the meantime I'm trying to beat all spirits spiritless in Smash bros. Will start Xenoblade 2 in september, already got XC3 ready
Baldurs gate 3. Thought it would be more complete since it's coming out soon. Still good though.
I've always had trouble getting into these isometric rpgs for some reason. Divinity, wasteland, old baldurs gate, even dragon age origins. Somehow the disconnect between the control and the character gets to me.
I'm going to try to get deep enough into this one though so that the story can actually shine through
I am currently playing Everspace 2, i like the space combat very much, although at least in the beginning the crafting system feels quite slow.
I spent more time gaming this month than any other this year and finished NO games. That’s what I get for devoting equal time to three big time-suckers.
I’m nearing the final act of Dragon Quest V on the DS. Mixed feelings but overall enjoying it. Coming straight from Chrono Trigger to anything else in that era is just unfair though.
I’m taking my time with Elden Ring and loving it. I love entering a new area and getting a stunning vista to take it all in. It’s a beautiful game.
Playing Battlebit about once or twice a week with some friends. It’s perfect for my friend group.
Borderlands 3 on PS plus. Which leaves in a couple of week, so I doubt I’ll have the time to complete it before it does!
Just bought XCOM 2 on sale and I'm overwhelmed by the difficulty but can't stop playing
