Gaming thread! What have you been playing recently?

Tears of the Kingdom? Diablo IV? Duke Nukem?

I always come back to two games. Divinity: Original Sin 2 and Minecraft. But I really miss Minecraft from the alpha and beta days when it was simple. D:OS2 is possibly the best story driven, turn based RGP I've ever played - any recs for something similar? Over winter I tried to get into Hogwarts Legacy but I couldn't find the motivation to progress despite growing up with and loving HP. On mobile I play Sky: Children of the Light pretty much daily and have done for almost 3 years now. Looking forward to PC release for that which was announced not long ago.

[email protected] (Lemmy / Kbin) have set up a community Minecraft server to try and recapture the old days! No idea how active it is but might be worth a look :)

I didn't know you could still play the oldschool game 👀 I will have to look into this, thank you!

If you like story-driven RPG, I highly recommend you Disco Elysium. It's basically Divinity: Original Sin without the combat system and the fantasy setting (and with even better writing).

Thank you, I'll check it out! I appreciate that there is no traditional combat, that stresses me out.

Disco Elysium and return of the obra-dinn are games that give me hope for the future of video games being something besides rogue lite deck building gacha crate games.
