Have you been spending hours trying to pass a level? Or maybe you are completely addicted to a newly bought game. Do you have a question about a game or would like to share something else? In the Weekly Discussion Thread, you can do it all!
Please don’t forget to use the spoiler tag as soon as you start talking about a storyline.
Pizza Possum. Very small indie game, but very fun.
I came back to Phasmophobia after a while. I forgot how much I love this game
Space Station 14.
Frontier station gameplay: This game is intentionally complex. Gettimg a space suit on? Don't forget your oxygen mask. ..and helmet. ..and to make sure the oxygen's on. ..and that you have grav boots. ..and that they're on.
Grab an ore bag in one hand, pick in the other, and start breaking rocks. If you're lucky, you can get with a good captain and make some dough.
But honestly, i usually get paid more working as a janitor for the station. Or as a bartender, mixing up various drinks, if it's a good day and people are tipping well. I've been trying to run my own food truck, but it seems mostly what I do is die.
..but, then there's sitting at the bar after a good run, drinking and playing music. You can join in a midi band, or play your own uploaded song. Dance with people, or drop banana peels and watch 'em slip. It's a good tune to be alive.
Regular SS14 play: Or, try to do the above. But the station is faced with some awful inevitable catastrophe. Serve drinks and secretly dose them with hallucinogens, until the zombies come, or terrorists with nukes, or alien artifacts that do.. ..Things. Or join sec and try to keep the station going by dealing with whatever threats there are (including errant bartenders slipping drugs into peoples' drinks), or at least evacuate the people. ..and anyone could be a bomb-packing terrorist.
Or be a hamster. Or, y'know.. Anything you want to.
Still obsessed with Star Wars: The Old Republic after all these years
I'm still working my way through Baldurs Gate 3: I guess I'm around the middle of Act 2. I am still loving the game :).
I'm at about the same point. Though I keep putting off playing it as I don't want it to end!
I'm in Act 3 and there's tons to do.
I'm also already planning a second run since I've missed so much in Act 1 and 2... although I've already played for 105 hours.
This game is insane when it comes to detail!
Half Life - Alyx
I realized that after my long strategy gaming atrophy, I wasn’t ready to just jump into XCOM2 with War Of The Chosen content.
I decided to take it slow by playing the first Firaxis XCOM, with no DLC. Just plain vanilla.
It’s been a good priming for more complex strategy. Vanilla XCOM is friendly (perhaps too friendly) to stacking overwatch, with missions rarely being time sensitive, and the time sensitive one’s being very generous.
I still lost a few rookies early on, but I’m very close to beating the game. I already have a suitable psionic soldier, I just had to turn off the game on Sunday before I could build the special psionic armor.
I’ve got a squad of colonels with the stronger perks, best weapons and gear, and I’m ready to assault the alien HQ.
I’ll probably replay with Enemy Within DLC, and then move to XCOM 2.
Gonna play dead island 2 this weekend
Finally giving elden ring a proper go and playing through Alan Wake in anticipation of AW2

Tales of Arise cause I think I‘m out of exploration options in Hollow Knight and don‘t have the patience to overcome skill issue for the bosses that are next rn
Finished final achievements in Armoed Core 6.
Picked up Unrailed for $5 on Steam (great purchase).
Started a fresh file Ilin Stardew Valley, cause why not?
One more shoutout for unrailed, last videogame I played with my dad before we had to say goodbye. Very cool gameplay, tension without (much) violence, excellent co-op and A+ soundtrack. Simple idea, perfect execution
I've been bouncing between Red Dead 2 and Cyberpunk (don't have the new DLC yet though, was going to clear all the base gigs first). I love the open world whiplash I'm getting between these two amazing character driven stories.
I'm still playing Lies of P. 26 hours into the first playthrough Not sure if I will finish it though. I felt more frustrated towards LoP than when I played FromSoft's games.
I hate that it uses multi-phase bosses so much, yet these phases tend to have nothing related to the earlier phase.
Last Epoch. The campaign isn't anywhere close to as good as Diablo, but the crafting and end game is way, way better. Despite it being in early access, it's very polished already. I'm having a lot of fun with it. I'm looking forward to 1.0 in December.
Valheim with a buddy. I fucking love it
Doing the second run for Bg3. Prolly going for a third run after this one, the game is full of content and nuances to the story.
Sonic Frontiers the final horizon update. Very hard.
Typical MMO addict - Guild Wars 2
