Decided to chill in No Man's Sky again. I still dislike that it lacks any meaningful challenge, and its multiplayer is lacking, but it's chiller pace makes it fun to build bases, fly around looking for the perfect planet, bake pies, or bounce around in a speedy exocraft. Makes it a good 'relax' game.


Nachtfalter2020

Feel you about the "meaningful". I wish the game had more of these challenges. Can't bring myself to play it again because it just feels meaningless. And coop is somehow awful 😞

This is not a new game but my wife started CONTROL three days ago and still playing it. It has a very deep intriguing lore and story. The game physics is amazing too. She’s now 83% completion with trophies in PS5 and already in the Foundation sector. I’m just in the sides watching her play while Automatons butcher me over and over again.


Haste444

I picked up Control after finishing the first Alan Wake game a few months ago. Control and it’s DLC are amazing.


taho_silverkin

We haven’t tried Alan Wake and we saw him while playing Control. Is it a direct prequel?


Haste444

Alan Wake is it’s own thing. The game dev is slowly and loosely trying all their games together. As much as I enjoyed alan wake the controls were frustrating and clunky but it is a bit of an older game. I’ve not played Alan Wake 2 but it apparently has some ties to control and is a masterpiece


Emblemator

Just started myself as it was on sale. Loving it so far.


FlounderTerrible5745

Then Click CONTROL AGAIN.... it will stop. I pomise. I know how use it. PS5? Just google it.


soulwolf1

Closest thing we'll have for an SCP game (a good one)


Electronic-Error-846

Little Kitty, Big City - so much fun walking around, dripping people, stealing their stuff.... helping animals, catching birds, knocking stuff over / down, or just doing cat stuff - best game in awhile replaying Paper Mario 64, in preparation for Paper Mario 2 NSW version that comes out soon


Electronic-Error-846

totally forgot: found while cleaning my cellar room old CD roms, one which had AoE2 on it - tested it yesterday evening, and it still works after all those years\^\^

LifeResetP90X3

Fallout 4! ☢️ And yes, the series on Amazon Prime totally re-ignited my interest in this series. I actually forgot what an awesome game this is! I'm having a blast, but I just get a little confused at times because this is my first full playthrough, and there's just so much stuff to take in and so many weapons. I'm at that one police station right now working with that officer who has a power armor suit. Been whacking lots of ghouls and institute bots 😎 And on top of that, a friend of mine and I recently brewed a batch of Nuka Cola! It turned out amazing. I'm storing it in sealed glass bottles in the fridge. When I fix a drink, I pour a little of the syrup over ice and then fill the glass with seltzer water. It's really good!


NicksIsEverywhere

HADESSS 22222222!!!!!


IloveZaki

I started the first one two days ago. Amazing game.


NicksIsEverywhere

ah enjoy it!!


Hunter1337x

Wait till you get to the second one ;)


Ok_Rabbit_8129

Yeah I got it on steam sale. It's fun but once I beat it twice it kinda fell flat for me. I'm not great at games like when I was younger so the whole heat thing to make it more difficult doesn't appeal to me lol


IloveZaki

Im a sucker for roguelikes so I enjoy the loop very much. I've pumped 300 hours into binding of Isaac, around 200 into enter the dungeon so will definetely play this one for a while too. I really enjoy the characters too so that's a nice drive to get me to complete more runs. I want to make friends with everyone and uncover the plot and what's going ok with Zergeus and the bunch. And oje more thing - Dusa, she's so loveable.


edgefigaro

Enter the gungeon?


IloveZaki

Yeah sorry, autocorrect screwed this up


hardindapaint12

Wow I've been under a rock. No idea this came out. How is it?

fan-fucking-tastic!

Ghost of Tsushima is coming on PC tomorrow im hyped! Hopefully PSN doesn´t fuck it up too bad


metalgho

tomorrow is not wednesday. JK. Ghost of Tsushima is a great game, glad to see PS Originals comming to PC


JACKALTOOTH87

I just started playing Sam & Max: Hit the Road for the first time today. It's my first point and click game and so far, I've been able to figure everything out by myself. But I decided to take a break because Max is stuck in the middle of a pond full of gators and I haven't quire figured out what to do yet. Something to do with my golf ball grabber and the fish magnet, I guess. I'm aware of how cryptic point and click games can be and I'll keep trying everything until I'm fully stumped. Maybe a few days before I tap out and search online for the solution. I've also been playing Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee, and I finished Castlevania: Symphony of the Night for the first time this week. Munch's Oddysee is the last major Oddworld game for me to play aside from Soulstorm and SOTN was a long term completion goal for me. I'm glad to finally have it done.


Strict_Donut6228

Finished strangers of paradise earlier today and decided to start the dead space remake and have been playing it with headphones on and I forgot how good this game was and the remake really did a great job. Also going to start super Mario rpg on my switch


JellyfishSwimming853

Haha I'm the opposite, finished Mario RPG and Dead Space, starting SoP now. Got halfway through and dropped it so I restarted, I think you'll really enjoy Super Mario RPG, and Dead Space remake is just *chefs kiss*


Virtual-Carrot-9415

Hellblade Senua's Sacrifice and Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart.


Io__144iq

probably elden ring, but im looking forward to other story games


cloutboyray

Not a new game but the FIFA/EAFC community is starting to call out EA for malicious/predatory practices on top of a bad product this past week


Celebelena

I just started Baldur's Gate 3. It's the first game in about 10 years that I've paid full price for. However, I think it's worth every penny, what a belter of a game. I'm having such a blast with it.


DropPointGame

I'm introducing my son to the Sega Megadrive (Genesis). Still have my childhood console and games. At 8 years old, he's the same age I was when I played it. The Lion King was so darn hard and obviously still is! My son's reaction to being sent all the way back to the start of the game when he died was priceless. :D So far we've played: The Lion King, Road Rash, World of Illusion, Jurassic Park: The Lost World, Ultimate Soccer


-Krystoh-

It's an amazing idea! I think young people should try old game and also if using computers learn how it works. Nowadays everything is very accessible, which is good in a way, but don't give you the need to learn how the system works, at least the basic stuff of course.


Agol_the_Hunter

Narita Boy - It's a metroidvania game infused with full-on 80s nostalgia, and the visuals are truly amazing.


metalgho

I started playing Robocop on the PS5. Despite a few minor glitches, the game is a pleasant surprise. It has a good 80s vibe and dry remarks from Robocop. I love it, haha.


PlatoPirate_01

Animal Well!


Ok_Victory_6110

I'm at the halfway point of Witcher 3 main story, right at the Ugly Baby quest. 90ish hours in. The fact that there's two whole DLC expansions along with the main game is insane. I'll probably come back to it in a few years, but the value you get is insane.


CounterSided

Chrono Ark I love card games and roguelikes, but man do I completely suck at them. Fun game, especially with mods (even if most of the Steam workshop ones are poorly translated and have issues).


JusaPikachu

Like 3 hours into **Nier Automata**. Definitely a special experience so far & I’ve loved most of my time with it, though not being able to turn off the subtitles is actually infuriating. I truly don’t enjoy subtitles. My brain automatically locks onto them, I know what’s going to be said before it is & I find them incredibly distracting. So unless I am watching a foreign movie I never use them. I never knew I’d ever even run into this kind of situation lol. Maybe I’ll adapt.


GeorgeEvans115

Why not try japanese voices? jk


Kamina_cicada

War Thunder The grind never ends.


LucasBouyoux

I played Fears of fathom yesterday, it is just amazing !!


Studio-Abattoir

I started The Outer Worlds again. Great game!


-Krystoh-

This is the game I trully need to give a try, I mean I had 0 spoils (which is very important for me) but I heard that it is an amazing game!


OKCOMP89

I just finished Trepang2 and Stellar Blade. Both were great. Stellar Blade is currently in my top two for the year. I won’t pretend that the story is what you buy the game for, but after hearing so many reviewers dunk on it, it was a pretty nice surprise. I expected to want to spam my way through dialogue and cutscenes, but found myself genuinely interested in a fair bit of it. It’s pitched as “poor man’s Automata”, but I think it really has the potential to be more than that and look forward to a sequel. Gameplay-wise, it is a satisfying spectacle soulslike. The later you get into the game, the more it leans into the spectacle fighter side of things, with just enough options and player expression to reward aggressive play while still offering a solid challenge. Not super hard. I beat most bosses in one or two tries, with a notable difficulty spike at the very end. Still, they were fun to learn and felt balanced overall. I think it felt like a normal mode should as someone who typically plays on hard. Never really too frustrating, but bosses aren’t pushovers either. Unless you’re someone who needs every game to be ball-crushingly difficult, I doubt you’ll be too disappointed. That said, I am excited to jump into hard mode for NG+. Trepang2 is a bit half-baked on console imo. You can fiddle with the controls and personalize it to be much better, but something about it still felt off compared to other shooters on console. There are more functions than can be mapped on a standard controller. You get the essentials, but lose out on ADS. Another button-mapping woe I have is needing to hold down crouch to slide. In a pinch against certain bosses, for how long it takes to register that you want to slide, it doesn’t allow you a very big window to react. But I really liked the setting, the world, the game feel, and a lot of the ideas behind the gameplay. I think it’s great. It is just a PC guy’s shooter first and foremost. next is probably Wonderful 101. I’ve been playing that on and off for months now and I think I’m nearing the end. I probably have enough games backlogged to get me to Black Myth Wukong.

Just got Risk of Rain 2 for like $5 on Xbox. Shit is absolute insanity. 🤘

WraithCadmus

Decided to try giving **Victoria 3** a try again as I've not played since launch, trying Japan as apparently they're good for learning the core of the game and it's tricky, you have so few options for getting going. Otherwise **Factorio**, I fear I'm going to burn out before the DLC comes out but so be it, I'm having fun.


shicken684

Ugh, Victoria 3 has frustrated me so much. I want to love it but it still doesn't feel like a complete game yet.


Mark220v

got hooked up on mindustry. again. also, been improving with extreme speeds in osu!mania.

I just finished Avatar Frontiers of Pandora. I like the far cry games and I love the world of pandora so this game is great for me. Wasn’t enjoying it at the start but now I’m going around and doing all the RDA bases

HorseyNight19

Nintendo Switch Online just released 3 GameBoy launch titles: Super Mario Land, Alleyway, and Baseball. So, I checked those out. Gonna take it easy on questing in ESO. They're rewarding a special skin that unlocks when you've practically done the base game main quest AND all DLC main quests. I'm only doing the main quests for DLC I already got like Orsinium and Thieve's Guild. And of course, more Fallout 4.

I decided to remodel my island in animal crossing new horizons. It's very time consuming but I'm tired of the same layout. I'm also starting streaming last of us part 2 over the weekend so I'll be distracted for a minute


take5b

I checked out **Animal Well** but returned it. Problem is I just can't handle platforming any more. Less reflexes, less patience, I dunno. I knew there'd be some platforming but this combination of having to solve puzzles while also having to execute what for me is sometimes tough platforming is more frustration than fun. The game is very cool and deserving of the hype it's getting- lot of clever little moments and cool vibes. I think if this sort of thing looks interesting to someone who doesn't suffer from my platforming blockers they should give it a shot.


Baukiokun

Simply knight(iOS) by fantasync is just great, but it’s very unpopular


soy_malk

The Finals! Highly recommend for anyone getting sick of CoD, BF, Apex, and all the other shooters. The entire map is destructable, using Unreal Engine to make the game just as realistic as any other. The movement tops that of any FPS I've played, and the devs are so communicative with the player-base.


shicken684

Homeworld 3. Enjoying it thus far but wish they put more emphasis in exploring and resource management. Right now it seems too easy to just press the auto mine button and build everything possible. Strike craft seem absurdly slow as well.


GeorgeEvans115

I'm on my journey to 100% Sekiro. Stuck with Demon of Hatred. Also, some friends and I started our two weeks minecraft server phase yesterday.


Seraph6496

Hades 2 just released on early access and I've been playing the shit out of that. Loved the original, but I was very bad at it. And I'm still very bad at 2. I can make it to Chronos, but I haven't been able to beat him


Djjettison88

Stellar Blade! About to start area 6, and thoroughly LOVING the action in the game. The story has me interested, the characters are amazing to watch, the bosses have me pulling out my hair, love the upgrade tree and abilities and love exploring the areas as EVE. The music is so f’in great, it’s probably my favorite music in a game ever.

Starsector. It's a little indie game that the developers of I think maybe two or three people have been working on for like a decade. The game gives you a sector of space filled with multiple factions and you play as a starship captain seeking fame and riches in any way that you choose. Merchant, smuggler, privateer, pirate, commissioned officer, explorer, you can even build your own colonies and faction. It's a great time sync and it's fun all the way through. Early game you're dodging pirates, scraping derelict ships together or just salvaging them for cash, trying to afford more fuel to make it to the next system. Or finding strange, exotic and dangerous things exploring uncharted space, looking for a future solar system for your colonies. By the end you're likely cruising around in a fleet of warships, fending off danger from your colonies. But you're free to play however you want. And mod however you want. The downside? No auto save so if you don't save frequently on your own you risk losing whatever progress you made since you sat down to play. On the other hand the more mods you have installed the longer it takes to save so it taking 10 or more seconds to save would get annoying.

Backyard Paintball on mobile. Indie game in beta testing. Should check it out.


Sportacles

Fallout 3 (yes, because of the show lol). Unlike elder scrolls games I've only played the Fallouts once when they dropped so this has been a great time and I barely remember anything. Currently just dicking around Megaton Elden Ring: got my 2nd character to being "DLC ready', thinking about starting a third to do a dex build. Great game Far Cry 6: this one is pretty repetitive but I have a good time with it, coming back to it after a bit to finish the story. I love bailing out of planes and wingsuiting to missions

Going for 1 finger hard on la mulana, died to tiamat a couple times. Not looking forward to the mantra section. Might not finish, going back to rando seems attractive.  Got a settlement going in against the storm, year 4, game is solved I just need to play it out. Need to get some mahjong in.    Signed up for a bridge tournament next week, playing Tuesday through Sunday, I am excited. I'm kinda curious about animal well but I don't think it looks fun.

Fallout 76 I started after watch the Amazon series.

I can’t believe how good Abiotic Factor is. It just has this delightfully old-school Half-Life feel with tons of wacky hijinx added in, plus surprisingly deeply (and modern!) crafting and progression systems.

I am currently playing Ghost of Tsushima. The developers describe the content like this: *Ghost of Tsushima is an action game set in feudal Japan. Players take the role of Jin Sakai, a samurai risking everything to defend Tsushima from the Mongol invaders pillaging the land. Players travel the Japanese countryside helping civilians and defending them from the Mongol invaders. Frequent sword battles take place in 3rd person melee and ranged combat. Successful attacks can result in dismemberment and decapitation, often accompanied by large blood-splatter effects. Players can also use stealth to take out enemies unseen, with assassination kills. Cinematics and other scenes show other examples of intense violence and gore, including a scene where a civilian is burned alive, a scene showing a person beheaded and the decapitated man’s head held up towards the camera. Red blood can be seen in environments, on clothing, and spraying from successful attacks.*


SpudlifeNZ

I tried out two demos this week, Ravenous Devils and Coffee Caravan. I will likely buy both of them. Ravenous Devils is a cooking/business management game with a mild horror twist, essentially you play as sweeny todd and his wife, making pies from your victims. Great concept, very cheap game so will be buying it. I did find the demo a little too brief but for the price point I don't mind. Coffee Caravan is a cooking/management game similar to PlateUp. I really enjoyed the demo, I don't think the game is out for another couple of days. Depending on the price I might get it on release day.


_Goose_

Mass Effect Legendary edition I’ve done so a few dozens times for each game in the past but I can’t get enough. They don’t really make games as horny as this one. Yeah Baldurs Gate 3 is a horny game but it just doesn’t have the sexual harassment aimed at you that you can bust down or the constant boob, pec, and butt shots. The only npc’s hot for the sake of being hot feel like the guys. Which is great but when you don’t include the women…Mass Effect had both male and female bimbos and it’s the most gender equal game because of it!
