hitman 3

Forgot that came out, I should play it. Had a lot of fun with 1 and 2.

This week I played around 12 hours of Bravely Default 2, but dropped it because the boss mechanics (counters) feel anti-fun and like they want a specific party composition, and it feels a bit too grindy for my taste.

Continuing the Trails series with 3rd: it seems interesting, but I’m not sure I like how it’s structured, the gameplay feels too disconnected from the story.

Leveling some more World of Warcraft characters. The pre-expansion patch launched, and I’ve read about lots of bugs, but since I basically just play up to level 25 in the remix mode (and then boost the characters to max) I don’t really notice anything about it. Only that low level characters appear to be weaker now, that’s it. The pre-expansion event starts this week, so I’ll check that out.

Then I finished Solasta: Crown of the Magister. The story stays kinda mediocre, and it felt like some characters suddenly lost 50 IQ near the end, otherwise some parts wouldn’t have worked. I still like turn-based combat, so I generally had a good time. The game has multiple campaigns, that were added in the DLC (plus a Dungeon Maker, to create your own campaign and share in on the Steam Workshop). The first DLC campaign is supposed to be a faster pace and shorter than the main one, even if both are level 1-12, so I started that one. I did install a mod that lets you add and change a bunch of things, although I mainly use it for some QoL stuff, plus some more spells (and maybe feats) from table-top DND, so even though I’m using the same characters, I can try out some different things.

A new Path of Exile league started so I’m playing that.

I’m starting TF2. I’m a little intimidated however because so many gaming veterans play that game.

just play casual and maybe choose more casual forward maps (2fort, doublecross, degroot). you can add me :) - same name the one with ronin warrors

OmanMkII,

Yeah I don’t think I’ve ever had a bad game honestly, the worst it gets is when the bots spike again and people start raging

i’ve been really enjoying that pokemon emerald rogue rom hack… it’s such a breath of fresh air. it’s all the good parts and all the parts. (goodtime zone has really good videos on it if you’re curious)

chloyster,

Yesss its such a good hack! I loved version 1.0 but 2.0 is a whole other level. No other hack touches it in terms of qol features in my opinion. And it’s endlessly replayable. Pokemon distilled down to its best bits!

I started one quick Pokerogue run on Friday and now it’s Sunday and I haven’t put it down

Both Turnip Boy games (Tax Evasion and Robs a Bank), short fun, games with decent replayability. The writing is what makes it work though.

Wayfinder, don’t have a full opinion on this yet but it would have been interesting to see it if it had been released as an MMO as planned, the world is very pretty.

Crime Boss Rokay City is pretty fun, at launch it was crap but they’ve moved more towards a PayDay angle with heists and is pretty decent now.

Starfield

Finally starting to get some free time lately so I got Game Pass back, I played a bunch when it first came out and had a lot of fun, I’m excited to start a new playthrough with all the updates and now mod support as well.

Played the three games developed Accidental Queens because I’ve been in an interactive fiction/detective mood.

Started off with A Normal Lost Phone and Another Lost Phone, then headed into their gem of a game they later developed called Alt-Frequencies. Super fun narrative-focused game with a cool time loop premise. Great voice acting as well.

It’s been nice playing these short little games lately. Enjoying them quite a bit.

Most of the week was Baldur’s Gate 3, but I bought TW Warhammer 3 yesterday and have been playing that since.

Haven’t played much this week, really.

I’m getting to the later stages of Jedi: Fallen Order, and bought the ‘Pixels with a Porpoise’ bundle on Humble Bundle, so I’m looking a several weeks of pixelated fantasy fun, I think.

If you like that sort of thing, check it out. EIght really good games for $10: www.humblebundle.com/games/pixels-with-porpoise?h…

Aliexpress is definitely the way to go. Here’s a link to spreadsheet with the best prices from legit stores: Link

(Compiled by /u/DargillaUomo over on reddit - i think he earns an affiliate cut, but they do seem to genuinely be the best prices if you’re buying new)

sleepybisexual,

Oki :3

Thank you

theangriestbird,

you bet! I got really into these handheld emulators like 6 months ago, just glad my hyper-obsession could help someone else!

sleepybisexual,

I’m into them too. That’s why I want a second one

theangriestbird,

Hell yeah! What’s your other one? I’m pretty content with my RGB30, personally.

sleepybisexual,

An rp4 pro, very happy with it.

Jaffa,

Ooh, that is a good price. I was going to wait to see if they did a revision to the hardware but I am tempted now.

Grayjay od FUTO

Bo obsługuje wiele platform jednocześnie.

Zainstaluj, używaj, opłać jak ci sie spodoba i cie bedzie stać, nie oplacaj jeśli cie nie stać, nikt ci tego nie będzie miał za źle.

Ja sam Używam GrayJay do PeerTube, Twitch, Kick, Odysee oraz Patron (gdzie sponsoruje projekty i ogladam płatny kontent prosto z patron w aplikacji)

Dodawanie instancji PeerTuba jest toporne, ale jak sie juz doda i subskrybuje to pokazują sie na liście jak wszystkie inne.

Grayjay ma tez te platformy dodane jako wtyczki JavaScript przez co bardzo szybko wprowadzają zmiany jak sie cos zmieni w api platformy i jak na chwile obecna maja największą skuteczność.

Anbernic release so many handhelds and the price tends to come down a couple months after release. Maybe the SP will get there? I got a 35xxh a little while back from a UK eBay seller for about £40 if memory serves. On the other hand I imagine the SP has been super popular so who can say.

sleepybisexual,

So I should wait? My problem is shipping, not price

theangriestbird,

imo it’s sort of like computer graphics cards. There is never one singular best time to buy because something better is always right around the corner, and prices are always fluctuating up and down. If the SP is drawing you in to buy now, then go for it! The SP already emulates every non-analog stick console perfectly (and even a couple that do have analog sticks), so it’s not like there’s any point to waiting for a more powerful device.

sleepybisexual,

I want an sp, the problem is shipping costs, that’s why I asked this, but yea, Bernice makes a lot of stuff

MrDrProfJimmy, do games w Good game soundtracks?

There’s a lack of Ace Combat in this thread so I’m going to single out 7’s but they’re all pretty good.

Also Redout has a soundtrack to spike your heartrate
