I'm enjoying Control. It's pretty good fun to play, but the story has really grabbed me.
I finished Nine Sols last month and I can't recommend it enough. Aside from being a great metroidvania all around: great art, great music, great combat... I was most surprised by how good the story is. The world they built is really cool. Also, it's currently on sale. Would recommend.
forgotten city! a masterpiece of storytelling
Indeed the game is very good.
I LOOOOVED that game.
I got the notification that it's on sale now. I'm buying it today and can't wait to play it when I get the time
Great! don't read anything about the game, don't watch previews, don't do anything except play the game - your in for a treat.
Been playing for the first time Disco Elysium, but also have Kingdom Come:Deliverance and Titanfall 2 (Although I played it already 6 years ago) installed on my PC after getting them on deep sale recently.
On the Deck, Skyrim with mods and specifically beyond Skyrim Bruma. I have figured out how to install mods and you can sink a lot of hours in good ol' Skyrim.
I also play Life is Strange: True Colours on the Deck.
Additionally the farmer was replaced is a fun little Python like game where you need to write Python like code to automate the manual labor on your farm. But this I play on the desktop.
Started playing Factorio again with a friend, been fun so far. Just today I played Tooth and Tail again which is really cool, as well as Skullgirls Second Encore which I'm not great at but is still fun.
Battlefield Bad Company 2 (from 2010)
It's still very much playable in multiplayer! If you happen to have a copy - via "Project Rome" you litterally just have to drop one file from them into the game folder and boom - you got a working server browser again! I forgot how incredible the sound design in this game is.
Aw man I forgot about the sound design. I am tempted to try this.
BattleBit Remastered
I'm not sure if it counts for patient gaming but it's super lightweight and so damn fun.
I just soft modded my old PS2 so I could boot game backups from a network share. So I'm playing Gran Turismo 3, NFS underground 2, Tony hawk's Pro skater 4, NBA street vol. 2, and GTA: San Andreas. Basically everything and anything my teenage self loved at the time.
DOOM (2016). I originally got it when it came out, I wasn't very patient then, but largely played multiplayer. I've been playing the campaign this time around and I'm enjoying it quite a bit.
Replaying Kingdom Come: Deliverance, but this time no save scumming and on the Steam Deck. It's really good, but the slight vibe of sexism bugs me.
Also playing the excellent Tactical Breach Wizards.
Pokémon Emerald, and PixelJunk monsters.
Hitman 3 freelancer mode. The ultimate James Bond simulator.
It's incredible, feels like such a perfect addition to an already excellent game.
I've been enjoying Assassin's Creed: Odyssey. It's got just the right level of compulsivity to keep me playing without destroying my life. Pretty relaxing, to be honest, although I don't think "easy" mode is actually easy!
Getting back into ACC after taking the summer off. Still my favorite racing game.
Ps. I just recently discovered Wreckfest, which is a racing game but not a simulator game. Still it's very fun game to play haha. (also works with multiplayer)
Wreckfest is a fun one. I had a lot of fun with it a couple years ago. I'm looking forward to Wreckfest 2.
yeah, even today Wreckfest is still very much alive and an active online community till this day.
Stardew, trying to get that 100% thingy
I'm playing Pacific Drive right now. Its pretty fun and spooky
Just got a surface duo i will use for nintendo ds emulation, so when i get my new gamepad and stylus in the mail later this week i will pick up and start an old ds game i have never played. But i havent decided yet so im not really answering your question.....
If you like JRPGs and haven't played it, Radiant Historia would be a great choice.
Thanks for the rec!
Divinity original sin 2. It is not as good as I was expecting it to be. I keep getting bored and fustrated even if I really want to like it.
TerraFirmaGreg mod pack for Microsoft Minecraft Java Edition.
Based and gregpilled. TerraFirmaCraft and Gregtech in one pack sounds rather sadistic. I'll have to keep my eye on that one.
Persona 5 Royale. Its my first time playing a persona game and also my first JRPG. Currently 20 hours in. The lawyer woman is really funny.
I got myself mildly addicted to Mindustry. Wiping out enemy bases can be pretty satisfying.
I'm addicted to Mindustry, and I wouldn't say it's mild lol. Started playing it a few months ago, absolutely love it
Atomicrops. It's a solid rogue-lite farming game that is a lot of fun to just pop into and make a run.
Just got the this new game called Knack. Heard of it?
HyperRogue. The lack of statted items means less time thinking andore time playing. Same complaint as many rogue likes though, it lacks a save and quit. I don't care if it makes save scumming possible, it's shitty to force people to finish a game in one sitting.
I've been playing Pokemon Go, started back when it came out after niantic killed their other game I was playing to make pokemon go. (Not bitter at all)
Played a few weeks gave up.
Now I'm 30 and was out running and thought hey why not do this at the same time.
🤣 it's a 20 year old MMO called Wurm Online. The pacing and skill depth is pretty amazing for an older more patient audience.
I've started on X4, and love it!
I'm playing Read Dead Redemption 2 for the first time, it's a really good game
A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.
