Returned to Warframe after a long time and got blasted with so much content it is difficult to decide where to start.

It is fun tho, and much more enjoyable because I have so many possibilities of content to enjoy.

I've started playing Techtonica, or if you prefer, "underground satisfactory". One interesting mechanic is that research creates a sort of bulky waste product and you have to find a place for it.

I am waiting for Baldurs Gate 3 to release and in the meantime I was just staring at my screen buuuut just got the word that both of the Zelda Oracle games are now on Switch Online or whatever it is called, so that is how I will spend my weekend:))

The Mass Effect trilogy and simultaneously making a guide in Notion containing who to bring for unique dialogue, collectibles and instructions if they're not given in game.

Almost done with Pokémon Shining Pearl.. which has not been as bad as I expected. I mainly went for it to play with my 'mons only compatible with BDSP.

Just grinding the Grand Underground for mysterious shards now to catch all the legendaries in Ramanas Park.

[–] Mononon@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

If you can do an emulator or mod your switch, there's a really good BDSP mod called Luminescent Platinum that adds a ton of QoL stuff, mons, NPCs, and Platinum stuff.

Just finished the main story of Pikmin 4, now working on the post game content. Also played a little bit of Cassette Beasts with the gf and it's an interesting game, pretty fun for the couple hours I played it.

Finally got around to playing Vermintide 2. Holy crap, I LOVE this game. Me and my girlfriend have been playing it, trying out all the classes and weapons. It is amazing how much build diversity there is in Vermintide.

I plucked up my courage and I started Resident Evil 2 Remake. I finished Leon part. Doubting if play Claire part or not. Also I finished Inscryption. I'm now trying to finish the Warzone 2 battle pass since It ends in a few days.

[–] CharlesReed@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

Definitely do play Claire's part! It's not as long, and there are some repetitive parts, but it does add more to the story and introduce some new characters (if you're not already familiar with the original or the franchise in general).

[–] Secret300@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Been playing a lot of Risk of Rain 2 again. I still don't have the DLC but I'ma buy it soon

[–] TheSpookiestUser@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

Still just playing Team Fortress 2. This is how it usually goes with me; I pick one or two games at a time and play em into the ground. Relearning how to play Scout, which I was never very good at to begin with. Takes a lot of twitchy reflexes and quick reaction time, even moreso than the other classes except perhaps Sniper when flick-shotting.

I've been playing Neon White for a few days, it's been in my backlog for a while haha. I had a lot of fun replaying levels to get an Ace & gifts. I'm currently at chapter 7. The story segments are cringy, but that's part of its charm.

[–] nogrub@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

just redownloaded fallout 4 with around 250 mods it's just bonkers to me what modders are doing with that game

[–] Deestan@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Citizen Sleeper. Really enjoyable sci-fi-writing and chill gameplay.

[–] Dassen@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Just finished Dave the diver, was a bit longer then expected (30hr)

Thinking about eastward of Mutazion next

[–] Starb3an@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

I'm playing valorant. It feels like cs 1.6 and gives nostalgia

[–] boredScientist@feddit.nl 1 points 2 years ago

I've started playing Ys 9: Monstrum Nox. It's a quite charming action RPG. I played Ys 8 a few years back and generally found it enjoyable, so wanted to give it a shot. Not the most complex game (so far), but definitely fun!

[–] Dalvoron@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Pikmin 4. It's real good. I was always more interested in the environmental puzzles than the combat so the lower difficulty suits me just fine. I got to credits yesterday, then ::: spoiler turns out there's a whole extra pikmin 1 campaign in there and seems like at least one more area in the main campaign. Must save Oatchi! :::

[–] boerbiet@feddit.nl 1 points 2 years ago

Trying to beat Tails of Iron on the hardest difficulty. The game was fun and somewhat challenging on normal and I did 100% it. The hardest difficulty feels random and just unfair at times and honestly isn't very fun to play. But I'm determined and have reached the last area, so hopefully I'll succeeded this weekend.

[–] Rakqoi@lemmy.cafe 1 points 2 years ago

Armored Core 3! I was interested in AC6 coming out in a month, so I decided to jump into the older games to get a taste of the series beforehand. AC1 was very clunky and difficult for a newcomer to the series, that's for sure. After a bit I decided to skip to 3 since I heard it was a good entry point to the series.

I've been having so much fun! I spend way more time customizing and tweaking my mech and theory-crafting new builds than I actually spend doing missions. I've mostly done arena fights, since they're less stressful (no ammo or repair costs), but the entire game is great so far.

Now having played this, I'm more excited for Armored Core 6 than I thought I would be, and I cannot WAIT for it to release.

[–] giantofthenorth@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I've been going single player as of late. A lot of the outer worlds spacers choice and gates to hell Ostfront. Fighting against corporatism and fascism

[–] JakenVeina@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I suckered myself into another Hollow Knight playthrough, so that's been my week. All I've got left are the round-2 dream bosses, and the dreamers themselves.

Not sure what I wanna pick up next. Pikmin 1&2 before 4? I never actually played 2. Persona 5: Strikers? God of War 2018? Final Fantasy 7 Remake? Horizon: Zero Dawn? Finish Hyrule Warrior: Age of Calamity?

[–] Stern@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Been halfassing Yakuza 3. Really I probably could have plowed through already but ehhh

[–] veloxization@yiffit.net 1 points 2 years ago

Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 Remix, and experiencing extreme levels of nostalgia. My goal is to play through every HD Remix and reexperience the joys of my childhood before finally seeing what Kingdom Hearts 3 is about.

[–] FreddyNO@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Trying to get through all the ffxiv expansions!

[–] Sjotroll@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I'm shuffling around a couple of games, when I get tired of one I go to the next, and so on until I hopefully beat them all. The current one is Monster Hunter: World, followed by Desperados 3 and TLoZ: BotW.
