Balatro. I wish there was a cross save between mobile and pc though

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Almost everyone that's responded has included that game. I don't even know what it is, going to have to check it out.

Playing Another Crab’s Treasure - a Soulslike with a humorous tone. I had the game on Xbox, but abandoned that and replaying on Steam. I think having a calmer, more analytical mood to the difficulty is helping me make progress faster.

There’s a region where you need to stick to the path lest you awaken a gigantic and threatening enemy bearing an instant-kill attack. I just returned to that area and killed it.

Hogwarts Legacy, RDR2, Elite Dangerous, Sea of Thieves, and Spider-man.

Grabbed Hogwarts on sale, and damn I don’t get where all the (non-political) hate came from. It’s pretty solid, as far as open world adventure games go. I’m not even an HP fan, but it’s a blast.

danmaku unlimited 3 (pc), ketsui deathtiny (ps4), ketsui death label (3ds), battlefield 2042 (xbox series s)

Finished Fallout London last week.

This morning I finished replaying Grim Fandango for about the 12th time.

[–] Leate_Wonceslace@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Wait, Zelda's on Steam? Why can't I find it?

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I already commented about that in another reply. And you can add non steam games to your library.

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 3 points 3 days ago

Witcher 3 can't be worse than Xcom2 on the switch. No judgement here.

[–] SuperSaiyanSwag@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 days ago

UFO 50, Ghost of Tsushima, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine and Cassette Beasts

I just finished Ace Attorney Investigations II and I am at that stage confused for where to go now after finishing a game (is not that I do not have a backlog lol).

Anyway, I continued Pokémon Omega Ruby yesterday but I have that one, TWEWY, BOTW (both for Switch) and Chrono Trigger for DS sitting in the middle of a playthrough and I don't know where to go now.

I just went to Pokémon because I never finished the GBA version and it is the easiest IMO, TWEWY I beat the DS version multiple times and I consider that one better than the Switch one (gameplay wise) maybe that is why it hasn't caught up my attention so much.

BOTW is MASSIVE! And the joycon drift demotivates me lol And Chrono Trigger... I am pretty sure I am about to finish the 1st ending... But I am kinda lost in the plot lol.

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 3 points 2 days ago

8bitdo controller. My joycons died during BotW too. I haven't had a single issue with the 8bitdo controller I got immediately after.

Also, Tears of the Kingdom is like three times larger, when you get to that one. Very fun.

You hide cards at night in the forest for fun? Seems like a solitary type of game to play.

Repostin'. Trying out Arcanum for myself for the first time.

[–] MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Love seeing FNV there. I recently got around to beating it a few months ago and it was amazing

Currently playing Half Life 2. Got it for free and i love it.

[–] M137@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (2 children)

I play games too much, so I'll categorise them:

New ones I've finished and absolutely loved: Dragon Age: The Veilguard and Star Wars: Outlaws

Not new ones that I'm currently playing and really like so far: Days Gone and Mad Max

Not new ones that I'm currently playing that I'm unsure if I like, be it because of the game itself or technical issues: Enshrouded, Horizon Forbidden West, and Satisfactory

Ones I've played for some time and won't stop playing anytime soon (and obviously love): Warframe and Minecraft

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 3 points 3 days ago

Mad Max is fun. But it never holds my interest for long.

  • Nintendo Switch: FF8 Remastered
  • Xbox: Sea of Thieves
  • PlayStation: Fallout 4
  • Mobile: Balatro
[–] Skua@kbin.earth 7 points 3 days ago (3 children)
  • Elden Ring. Only the base game, and this is my first run. I have been very thorough with it, though. I'm currently trying to beat Malenia, then it's off to do the last boss

  • Victoria 2. Weekly multiplayer session with a couple of friends. It's 1915, and my people have just elected an anti-military party that is really hampering my efforts to swing a big imperialist stick around

  • Lorn's Lure. PS2 graphics, generous 3D platforming mechanics, and an impossibly vast and desolate megastructure to explore. Well I'm playing the demo of it, anyway. I am going to get the full version, it made a good impression.

Kiddos have been playing Space Engine on my account, but otherwise this is what I've been playing lately.

Garden of the Sea, I am Future, Havendock, Dinkum, Fallout 3 GOTY, Broken Lens, Bugsnax, Cult of the Lamb

  • Finished all battles in Easy Red 2 and started again.
  • Just started Spell Brigade.
  • Tried to get back to Astroneer, but don't seem to find myself playing it.
  • Tried to get back to Elite Dangerous, but no.
[–] rowinxavier@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

Half Life 2, I got a new laptop a couple of years ago and it was the first that could actually play it properly but I never got to it, then the big update came out and wow, so worth it, loving it.

TES IV Oblivion. Love it, so silly, I love thieving.

Autonauts vs Piratebots, such a fun and cute little programming game.

[–] macAttack@lemdro.id 2 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

Last game on console was Civilization IV. Too steep of a learning curve for me.

Since then, I started terminalQuest and it reminded me that I have a bunch of outstanding itch.io games from the bundles during Covid/Ukraine to tackle. Currently playing:

  • CrossCode
  • Celeste

And in the wings I have

  • Night in the Woods
  • A Short Hike
  • Oxenfree
[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Civ 4 is on console? Are you sure it's not a spin off game?

[–] macAttack@lemdro.id 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)
[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 1 points 1 day ago

Gotcha. That's pretty cool they went console on it. How are the controls with a gamepad?

[–] podperson@lemm.ee 6 points 4 days ago (3 children)

I’m old and just started playing Far Cry 5 (haven’t played any of the others before). Very fun.

Been playing Animal Well, an astonishingly cute and insanely frustrating metroid vaniaesque puzzle platformer.

[–] Quazatron@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Factorio - Space Age, Frost Punk 2, and Balatro Mobile

[–] Essence_of_Meh@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago (4 children)

Mostly Spyro (the PSX one) and both versions of Cyberpunk 2077. Alternatively Muse Dash if I don't have much time (or will) to go for a longer session.

Balatro, Octopath traveller 2, AC Valhalla, Baldur's gate 3, Crosscode, Tales of grindea, AC Odyssey.

I've only completed the last two, and I'm currently rotating through the others depending on what I feel like playing the most.

[–] Ashtear@lemm.ee 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Honkai: Star Rail and Ys IX: Monstrum Nox. Took me multiple chapters to get into Ys IX (very unusual for me, I love the series) but I'm finally starting to enjoy it.

Also started a replay of The Witcher 3.

[–] callouscomic@lemm.ee 2 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

Heh. I love Ys, and yet EVERY SINGLE TIME I am initially disappointed, and I have to stick with it, and it eventually gets insanely good.

Just how Ys games are I guess. With Ys X I went into it knowing this and really overlooked a lot and told myself to ignore my criticisms cause I've been through this rodeo like 6 times now. 50 hours in, yeah it's awesome. The story especially.

I don't hate Monstrum Nox like so many do. It's refreshing they will always try wildly different things.

I've been getting back into boomer shooters and dungeon crawlers.

I've been playing more Selaco, and I'm excited for the next chapter to be released. Also Burger Flipper has taken my spare time in that game while I'm playing it (it's the idle clicker game-within-a-game).

I reinstalled Lunacid to jump back in and hopefully finish that at some point soon. I've been playing fun demos like Mohrta and Hark the Ghoul too.

And of course Project Zomboid.

[–] UnPassive@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Been grinding Deep Rock Galactic Survivor
