Been replaying Into The Breach. One of the best turn based tactic games there is out there.

I'm extremely hype about Phantom Liberty so I reinstalled Cyberpunk and have had a bit of a poke around. Don't want to get too involved in a new playthough until the DLC drops so just loaded up an old save for now.

I've mostly been playing A Tale Of Two Wastelands, which is a mod for Fallout New Vegas that takes all of Fallout 3 and adds it to NV. It merges the engine upgrades and gameplay improvements from NV into 3, plus custom content to make it all work. It's a HELL of a lot of fun.

Diablo IV. I'm still somewhere around Act 2, and the game is really well done in its genre.

For when I'm tired of slaying demons, I got Back 4 Blood. Haven't been playing this one since its first release, and this time I really got hooked. Pretty good HDR implementation, and overall it's a worthwhile Left 4 Dead successor. I also got all the DLCs, so plenty of content before I run out.

Diablo for me as well. I just finished the campaign on necromancer and am playing around with a barb now.

I played the Final Fantasy 16 demo. I'm not sold on it, but I tend to favour older games with turn based combat. Still, I did mostly enjoy the gameplay, it seems like it could be a fun game.

I gave Dragon's Dogma another try, and I'm 20+ hours in now. I never made it this far. It's a pretty fun game, though I'm having difficulty figuring out some quests without resorting to searching wikis. My current quest, I need to find a gargoyle, kill it and get back something from it, but it didn't drop anything. I'm wondering if it glitched.

For relaxing, I'm playing Etrian Odyssey 3.

Tears of the Kingdom Diablo IV Dark Souls 3 Final Fantasy XVI demo

[–] hoodlem@hoodlem.me 4 points 1 year ago

Pokémon Violet. I have the dex. I’ve finished the storyline. I just find raiding fun and relaxing.

[–] alexdoom@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago

Battlebit remastered. Definitely got curious from their ads, but it is a battlefield experience like no other. Puts 2042 to shame. It looks silly but its challenging in all the right ways.

[–] pumerogo@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago

I played the Final Fantasy 16 demo yesterday and I'm hooked. Can't wait for thursday, when the game releases!

While I'm waiting, I'm playing Horizon Forbidden West (the world is so big!), Diablo 4 and as always Final Fantasy 14. ^^

[–] Evolone@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nothing really, unfortunately. Life has been busy lately and, with kids, gaming is almost nonexistent.

This weekend my wife and kids will be out of town for five days and I’m honestly contemplating buying either Tears of the Kingdom or Diablo IV and just going to town on one of those all weekend…

I am a big fan of crpg: usually I play Baldur's Gate, Solasta, Pathfinder... but I will play DIV because I want to try a new class (done the campaign with a Sorc, next one will be a druid or a necro).

[–] Codo@slrpnk.net 4 points 1 year ago

I’ve been playing Victoria 3 and I just can’t wait to have fun

[–] Nilesse@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago

Currently playing the Ace Attorney Trilogy! I'm also eagerly waiting for Next Fest to start tomorrow to try out various demos.

[–] CaptainDogwater@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I've played a variety of games this past week;

  • American Truck Simulator with friends
  • Borderlands 3 for mindless gunplay
  • Plate up with the wife!

Been playing some RE: revelations 2 on switch, lately been on a Resident evil mood just finches RE2R so going with the franchise a little bit.

[–] lolreconlol@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

I've been stuck on Rocket League and Fortnite for years.. 😭

[–] niisyth@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

I usually play a lot of new indie and old AAA games but rn the biggest time sink is Zelda Tears of the Kingdom. As anti-consumer as Nintendo is, they know how to make quality halo games.

[–] DeathWearsANecktie@lemmy.fmhy.ml 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Dragon Age: Origins

I remember playing a little bit of Inquisition years ago, but I never got very far. I felt like playing a somewhat old school RPG and I know this game is held in high regard so I'm giving it a shot. So far it seems pretty good but I've only put a couple of hours in.

Also playing Enlisted.

[–] hoodlem@hoodlem.me 3 points 1 year ago

I love this game! One of my favorites. Enjoy.

[–] Litany@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Timberborn! Update 4 stuff really added a lot.

Forgive Me Father. I rarely play shooters these days but this one is a quite pleasant for short sessions so far with just a tad of old doom-like tactics, but more streamlined, and has nice aesthetics too

I've been playing The Division 2 and I'm really enjoying it. I stopped playing for a few years, and now I've managed to stop the game crashing every 5 minutes, it's really good fun.

I've been cleaning though some games that I had only partially completed in anticipation that I will need more hard drive space come september. Finished the dlcs for both Spiderman and Horizon zero dawn which I quite enjoyed, and now I'm playing far cry 6 which is okay but definitely not living up to it's own potential.

[–] WallyHackenslacker@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

This week, a little Citizen Sleeper, a little of a Doom wad called Lost Civilization and No Man's Sky on Switch.

[–] falinter@midwest.social 3 points 1 year ago

Diablo, overwatch, RimWorld depending on if friends are available or how much free time I have

[–] ElysiumXII@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

Been playing some FFXIV, Baldurs Gate 3, Solasta, Divinity Original Sin 1 Enhanced Edition and Cyberpunk in that rotation

[–] jbaert@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Playing a bit of DUSK while my computer encodes some video. I find that even while all threads are busy at x265, I can still squeeze it in.

Otherwise: Overwatch 2 and trying to finish Ragnarok on PS5

I've been enjoying the Evercade Piko Collection 3 cart recently. When new carts come out I like to try out every game and go in-depth on a least a couple games so I have a reason to come back to it later after there's a new shiny out.

So I've been playing and streaming 40 Winks (I'm about halfway through now), enjoying some Radikal Bikers, and loving to hate the hilariously bad Sword of Sodan.

Morrowind and Outer Worlds

[–] LherkinGherkin@feddit.uk 3 points 1 year ago

Just finished playing the Lies of P demo. Almost rage quit on the last boss but finally beat it this morning. Really enjoyed the demo, very Bloodborne-esque and now looking forward to the full game release.

[–] candid@board.minimally.online 3 points 1 year ago

I've been jumping back and forth between The Finals Closed Beta and Battlebit Remastered when I'm not leveling my sorcerer on Diablo IV.

Outside of that, for demos I played the FF16 demo which blew my wig back. Lusant is another one coming from Don't Nod that I played a small chunk of and quit because I knew it was right up my alley and didn't need to see more, have a feeling it'll be a shorter experience. Then I tried Lies of P, which has busted HDR support on PC, so gonna give it a shot on PS5 today. Overall dug the vibe and combat, the influence from Bloodborne is all over the damn game.

[–] topz@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Horizon Forbidden West. Got the expansion and wanted to go through the main story again before jumping into it.

poly bridge 3! very chill but still stimulating game where you get a variety of maps and scenarios to build bridges in. i did have to watch two hours of bridge building tutorials because my knowledge of physics is abysmal but if you passed a physics course in high school i doubt it’s nearly as challenging.
