Happy new year guys!πŸ˜€ Just now, it hit midnight here, and it's officially 2025. I was playing Pennon and Battle, and I realized it's the last game I played in 2024!! That gave it a different kind of meaning. Now I'm curious, what was the last game you played in 2024?

Rimworld, and I just found that there are tons of mods for it. I'll likely be playing it for quite a while still.

I'm about halfway through Lego Lord of the Rings right now.

They really nailed the Lego game formula on that one. Truly a love letter to Peter Jackson's films and with all the silly Lego game humor. I finally 100%'d it last year, then went right onto Lego The Hobbit (almost as good!).

Jackbox Survey Scramble

Basically like Jackbox Family Feud. Was a really fun all-ages activity over the holidays.

Animal Crossing New Horizons. Celebrating New Year on the island are part of our new year tradition.

This also makes it the first game played during 2025.

The witcher 3!!! 40+ hours in and loving it

[–] De_Narm 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Same game and roughly same amount of time. Just started the main quest in Novigrad.

Got both DLCs for like 3 bucks, which was nice.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

We must be progressing very similarly, I'm also in novigrad! Lol

Technically ∞ Loop on my phone. But the last real game I was playing was Jade Cocoon.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

Got a need for nostalgia. Last game was MGS4. Before that, it was THPS1&2.

Boomerang Fu. Played with the kids who enjoyed stomping their parents.

The Sims 3. I had to figure out how to disable OneDrive backup for my Documents folder, because Sims 3 insists on keeping your saves there, and somehow everything breaks if OneDrive tries to sync them. Previously I had given in and let OneDrive sync everything because Win11 nags you if you try to avoid it.

I also have to fiddle with processor affinity to get the game to launch, for some reason.

It still crashes a lot.

Finished a run in Windblown.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

My son and I played COD Mobile. Domination at Shipment before my dad arrived. We just got these two assault rifles gold, and we started the grind to diamond. It’s a fun game, without having to pay to win to enjoy.

Partner and I played Mario Kart 8, was quite fun!

Replaying Pillars of Eternity Deadfire.

[–] ampersandrew 2 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Hell yeah! I'm trying to finish up the DLC I never got around to before Avowed comes out. Have you checked out the turn-based mode? I like it way better, and I'm surprised it works as well as it does.

[–] CheeryLBottom 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I didn't try that. I had been so used to RtwP. I might have to try another run with turn-based!

I'm currently a mindstalker duel-wielding blunderbusses. My previous character (on my way to Ukaizo) is a Scout duel-wielding daggers. I seem to like duel-wielding hmmm

I've pre-ordered Avowed, but will probably wait until the DLC comes out... Hopefully there will be :)

Half life 1

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

Last game I finished was Veilguard. Pretty close to EoY. It wasn't exactly what I wanted, and the difficulty falls off a cliff as a mage when you get life steal, but it wasn't bad. The romance with Neve was entirely too... unromantic, and PG-13 though. Very disappointing. No intimacy.

Then I started CrossCode and it's been good. Feels like a mix of old snes games (Zelda, lufia2) and MMO, without the annoying parts like other players. The puzzles also aren't very hand holdy, which is nice. I feel like a lot of games are too aggressive with their "HEY IT LOOKS LIKE YOU CAN SLIDE THAT BRICK. HEY I BET FIRE MELTS ICE."

Stalker 2, yesterday πŸ™‚
