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.

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.

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

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.

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 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?

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!

I used £35 of Microsoft Rewards points and picked up Remnant 2 on whim. Didn't play the first one but I'm really enjoying this so far.

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

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.

Xenonauts 2 Early Access - got to the end of playable content.

What is there already is solid, and I have no doubts the full game will be really good. It feels like somewhere between 30-50% along the plot has been added. The game on display right now is not worth the listed price, so anyone not super duper interested in seeing it take form along the way should hold off until release.

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

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

I gave in and bought Diablo 4. I haven't gotten to the endgame but I'm having a lot of fun playing through the campaign so far.

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

[–] Stern@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

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

[–] boerbiet@feddit.nl 1 points 1 year 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.
