Hey everyone! I have no power in here, have not checked if anyone has started one of these but I feel like being the change I want to see in the world.

So! What are you playing this week?

I just started off Claire Obscure Expedition 33, and at the same time, have been getting my girlfriend to slowly wean off of Guilty Gear Strive and try out older fighter games like Guilty Gear XX and a more recent one, BlazBlueCrossTag (both to great success)

Also still haven't beat the first major boss of Nightreign, not looking forward to the trashtalk from friends after the nerf because they did it first

Just started playing Splitgate 2! Didn't really pay too much attention when it got announced, but I saw it was live last night and gave it a try.

As a long time Halo/Arena Shooter fan, this game really scratches a certain itch. The gameplay is crisp, the art direction is fun, and I had a blast. Now I just need to get better at using my portals in game...

Something that stood out to me is that the install (at least on Xbox) was only 17gb! After so many gigantic games, it's nice to have one with a manageable file size.

I finished my second playthrough of Drova - Forsaken Kin (wanted to see both of the camps + experience the new content added with the last patch) somewhat recently and it gave me the itch to go back and replay the first two games from the Gothic series. I'm already done with Night of the Raven and making my way through the first game now. Getting them to run smoothly on Linux was a bit of a process but other than that they still hold up incredibly well, at least in my incredibly biased view.

Playing Core Keeper with no wiki. Having a blast, didn’t realize how much content the game has now. I need to play without a wiki more often. Much more fun.

Just got back on PlanetCrafter with my mate.

We are having a blast on the Moons update !

I actually went back to give star citizen a shot since they added these "flight school" type missions that actually pay pretty well. It's a chill experience to just pop on after work and do like 6-8 of them since they only take a few minutes each and then log off.

Other than that I found this game hard time 3 that is absolutely unhinged madness. It's a janky messy game, but it's fun chaos to mess with for a bit. It's free on mobile, but I bought it on steam. It already has a horrendous camera and dealing with that on mobile is just asking for an aneurysm.

Core Keeper with my gf and Children of Morta/PUBG casuals with a friend. A bit of PAYDAY 3 with a group.

I'm currently playing:

  • Star Citizen (I know I know. I paid like $40 into the Kickstarter years ago and I dip in about once a year or so.)
  • Last of Us 2 (again)
  • Schedule I on Steam Deck is pretty fun.

I'm also currently gearing up to get horrendously addicted to Rimworld again since there's apparently a new DLC on the way.
