PC Gaming

Skyrim, next to my wife who is experiencing it for the first time. And OSRS because always

I was playing FF7 rebirth ....got about 60 hours in and Im having trouble beating the game. Its just so boring with the sidequests. And the map is insanely big with nothing but a couple of monsters. They definitely padded out the game. Its not a bad game and it has its moments.

So I started to play Detlarune after my wife got it for me for my Bday. Got through the 1st chapter and im really enjoying it. Im just going to play that now and maybe come back to ff7....if I feel like it.

Cyberpunk 2077

Stardew Valley

Hades 2

Diablo 4

These are the ones I’m rotating between most right now. I’ve also got Doom (2016) and BG3 on rotation, but haven’t hit them in a while.

The Steam Deck has been such a great addition. Especially being able to stream titles like CP2077 from the PC for better graphical fidelity and battery life.

Edit: Oh! And Geometry Wars 3! It’s so good on the Steam Deck! It says “Playable” but I genuinely don’t know why, it seems completely supported as far as I can tell.

I'm on an everything Battletech-related kick, so Mechwarrior 5: Mercenaries is what I'm playing currently.

ive been boring and pretty much only playing hypixel skyblock, basically an mmorpg lol. some mario party with my girlfriend too

DOOM using prboom I started it in Hurt me plenty but quickly had to change to Ultra-Violence because I was thinking "Where's all the monsters?", it's nice to re-play the levels and listen to the good music.

TurtleWoW when I need to relax and do some questing.

Helldivers 2, have played at least a couple times a week since release with a group of friends but have been diving almost every night for the last few weeks as one of our other friends is on XBox and finally gets to join us!

Unfortunately he has only had time for one dive so far, but hopefully he has plenty of time tonight.

Easy Red 2. Sandbox WW2 game with a bunch of campaigns, mods, and a mission/map editor. Great developer who updates the game frequently.

It's not a visually amazing game or anything, but if you want to have Americans in German Uniforms fighting Chinese paratroopers in Stalingrad with M16s then you can. Its great

Striving for Light. It's the only real hybrid I have found between an arpg and a roguelite. A bite-sized PoE if you will.

Otherwise, in more or less the same genre, Magicraft (my GOTY 2024) and a tiny bit of Hellclock, tho it has yet to hook me because so far it's boringly easy - I'm still very early in the game.

Mostly Elden Ring and Automobilista 2. I finally got Shadow of the Erdtree but had to take a bit to ~~git gud~~ git less bad again before diving into the Land of Shadow, not helped at all by the fact that the character I wanted to go in with was not at all well-suited to fight Mohg. Still, I'm enjoying it a great deal. The map design is phenomenal, I keep just stopping to look at the landscape for a bit

Automobilista is just the go-to for having a game with some other friends who also like racing sims at the moment. It's not my favourite in terms of driving physics, but it's good enough, the car classes being relatively balanced is nice for variety in races, and I'm honestly really enjoying trying out all the South American tracks that I've never heard of

Far cry 6. It sucks. I love gta style open world with lots of vehicles and weapons. It’s great for that. The missions are all the same. Go here, fetch this. Kill this person. Go back to another person.

sorry but I have been a dillatant lately while I install the smallest games from the great on steamdeck filter of steam. One funny note was I had hunter stories and found it ultimately relied to much on rng and did not let me build up enough from things just made available. I think they should have had an option to buy normal eggs maybe level gating the type and then left the rng for rare powered up types. Anyway booted that out and just started palworld and wow is that ever the opposite. Does not explain stuff much at all whereas monster hunter stories was basically on rails. eventually I will get to the witcher at which point I likely will have to start deciding what stuff I want to take off if im to get anything larger on it.

EDITED - ooh. forgot to mention one stand out. nino kuni II revenant kingdom. Im playing each thing a bit and then putting on a new game but nino kuni had this very sorta fast casual fighting style that reminds me a lot of kindom hearts and I had a hard time stopping. Will likely be the game I binge once im good with what I have on the deck.

Recently finished mullet madjack, decided to replay quake 2

I'm playing through the first Death Stranding, which I've really been enjoying. The gameplay did not hook me initially, but it grew on me. I'm a sucker for a good narrative and so I progressed because I wanted to know what was happening.

I'll want to play the second one afterwards, but I'm thinking that I'll take a break in between. Maybe try Sword of the Sea? It looked pretty cool.

Currently, Hollow Knight, since Silksong finally comes out next week. Before that, a split between Kerbal Space Program and Nine Sols.

Nightreign had me, I've gone back to it for the everdark bosses, but I find the run before the bosses the most fun.

Went back to elden ring because of it, also picked up enshrouded and have been playing that with my coop group.

Balatro and slay the spire get a run a day

Rogue Trader. I'm up to chapter 3 and its dragging a bit.

Grounded 2. Very early early access but its still a ton of fun.

Peak. Mostly when my friend is available for co-op but I do solo runs here and there.

Hades 2 but its mostly on the back burner until 1.0 for now.

I've got a bunch of virtual novels, Pathologic 2, The Forest, and more in my backlog but with Silksong finally releasing next week they'll probably be saying there for a while.

Currently replaying Borderlands 3 and playing Horizon Forbidden West.

Red Dead Redemption 2.

I picked it up a yeat or two ago, played through it, and loved it. When RDR was finally released for the PC, I immediately dove into it.

RDR was ezcellent, but it made me crave RDR2 gameplay, which was far deeper. So now I'm riding around in the epilogue, completing challenges and collecting every piece of clothing, saddle, and trinket.

I recently finished Dragon Age Inquisition, and then started Powerslave: Exhumed.

I never played any of the original versions so it’s a completely new experience for me. Enjoyable so far - it’s an interesting historical link between classic metroidvania and 90s FPS, like a proto-Metroid Prime in some ways.

I do wish they’d added a quick save button to this modern version, though.

I’ve been on a Luanti (formerly Minetest) kick past few days, mostly playing Mineclonia.

It has some small QoL upgrades over the original imo. Could benefit from controller support but scratches the itch well enough as a palate cleanser.

After this probably looking at Dungeons of Hinterberg in my backlog.

I'm trying to 100% tropico 6 before the new one comes out.

Also been playing various games in luanti, minecloneia specifically
