I finished the story in TOTK on Sunday, and I just started Baldur's Gate 3. But I'm starting to wonder if I should pause BG3 for a minute and play through something a little smaller rather than going from one huge game to another.

Play Baldur's Gate 3, nothing else matters!

Delta V: Rings of Saturn

Such an atmospheric and cosy game. I'm a sucker for hard sci-fi and games that try to simulate real physics to the greatest extent possible.

Little bit of Cyberpunk for the first time. It's pretty alright

Picked up Evoprimal and it's so dumb it's fantastic and I love it.

Still playing Rocket League cause ball is life

Stardew Valley for the third or fourth time. Still as nice and calming as the last time. Such a beautiful little perfect game.

Jagged Alliance 3.

Love me some turn based, action point, squad combat action. Theres some flaws and its a bit limited in a few ways, but its a solid title.

Wish the genre got more love.

Finally finished up the first playthrough of Baldurs Gate with my buddy. Amazing game. Working my way through finalizing all the things in Starfield right now. Despite the many, MANY, flaws that game is just clicking with me right now. Will probably be returning to Factorio and Cyberpunk to play the DLC here shortly.

I just finished Skyward Sword last weekend, and my kids wanted to see me play on Hero mode, so that's what I'm doing.

Picked up Might & Magic Clash of Heroes, which is basically an RPG turn based version of a match 3 game. Pretty fun so far, I really love these RPG combined takes on simple puzzle games, like Gems of War, Puzzle Quest and such.

Still plugging back into nioh 2 when the mood grabs me. Such a perfectly balanced system.

I've been playing Dragon Quest XI S for the past couple of weeks, around 20 hours in and so much more to go by the looks of it!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Smashing some Titanfall 2. It's included with EA Play/Game Pass Ultimate and it's a ton of fun. We've been doing 4 player co-op "Frontier Defence" mostly; think arcade "MechWarrior" meets tower defence. Tons of fun!

In a fit of nostalgia I bought Yugioh: Legacy of the Duelist: Link Evolution. I watched the original show as a kid and played the game at recess, but never went any further than that. The game was on sale for a couple bucks on steam.

I gotta say, this is a great amount of content for the price (again, I bought it for like 5 bucks). You can play through the show's storyline (every season) with all of their dumb little decks, and after every duel, you unlock a "reverse duel" where you can do the same fight but from the antagonist's perspective. If you complete all of the duels involving a particular character, you unlock their "challenge duel" where they use a themed meta deck with actual combos and interesting win conditions. Because this game has every season of the TV show, there's at least a hundred different characters you can fight like this. Every time you win a duel you get some of your opponent's cards and money to make your own custom deck. The online is dead though, which is fine, I'm just playing this to relive my childhood watching the show.

I've been kinda hooked, even though I haven't been a Yugioh fan since 4th grade. I feel like a kid again. I just wish the Pokemon TCG or Magic: the Gathering had a modern game with a story mode like this.
