I am enjoying BG3, still, and it definitely scratches the tabletop fix I haven’t been able to fulfill.

I also returned to No Man’s Sky for a hot minute, and also still play TIE Fighter via GoG. Gotta go with that classic Lucas Arts 90s Gold.

I was certainly behind the curve here, but Horizon Zero Dawn! I was expecting some vagely Zelda like adventure RPG (and it was), but the story was so much more compelling than I expected. What a memorable game! I even got a second hand PS4 to play the sequel on… which I haven’t for like 6 months now. >_< (Too many other things to do!)

racketlauncher831,

I played it thrice on PS4. Got the free DLC and played the DLC twice. It’s such a powerful idea to have simple attack/dodge scheme and fight all kinds of machines even on Ultra Hard mode. The story is just OK, predictable.

The sequel, hmm, can’t say it’s even mediocre.

‘I lost my old equipments in the bag.’

Grow up, writers. We’re not five.

They added more moves in combat but I don’t like it.

The world is big and boring. I feel like to explore it before the main plot even begins but only for old time’s sake.

Oh, and don’t have too high expectation on playing it with good performance on PS4.

Sekiro. It ruined other souls like for me. Even DS. Combat felt like dancing, QoL are very good, even better than Lies of P that people kept praising about QoL.

A czy tam tez pilnują praw autorskich?

Mixel,

Jak narazie, nie. Ale kto wie czy jak nie zrobi się znacznie popularniejsza ta instancja to czy nie zainteresują się większe podmioty i będą chciały wymusić na właścicielach instancji usuwanie treści ich zdaniem naruszających prawa autorskie.

Super Mario Wonder is the best 2D Mario since Super Mario World. There is so much attention to detail and the polish on every aspect from the gameplay to the way enemies act and react.

Super Mario RPG is the ultimate remake. It kept absolutely everything about the original while adding a few minor gameplay enhancements. Best of all, the graphics look like the original CG readers from the 90s but with perfect modern sharpness.

Deathbulge Battle of the Bands was an unexpected favourite. It’s a light-hearted turned based RPG with Earthbound and Undertale vibes, an amazing soundtrack and interesting and humorous characters.

Ah, I see you’re a person of culture as well

Crusader Kings III. I‘m scared to turn it on by now cause it always makes days disappear for me.

Quake I, now remastered. I reinstall it frequently and it was one of the first games I tried on Linux, and it works flawlessly even though it came from a Microsoft-owned Bethesda-published Id. There’s something hypnotyzing in how responsive it feels so I don’t get bored nor with originar, nor with pretty new levels. Even boomer shooters don’t scratch it just like this game does.

Talos Principle 1 + Gehenna (Had it for years in my library collecting dust), finished it to 100% and am currently playing Talos Principle 2. These games are absolute gems and not even expensive for what you get, too. The people at Croteam are genuine masters of their craft.

Days Gone, since it just released on gog and I wanted to give a triple a title another shot. It turned out to be pretty good, fun driving and gameplay, and the hordes were terrifying.

Also I was amazed how well this game was running, 4k 144hz butter smooth on a 4070. Kudos to the developers!

It's close between Baldurs Gate 3 and Nioh 2.

BG3 is just that good, but Nioh 2 is one of my all time favorites, and I finally cleared everything in the game, early 2023.

Diddy Kong Racing.

boomzilla,

Nice. I started Ratchet & Clank on PCSX2 yesterday. Holy hell is that Emulator a work of art. The graphical options for the emu make that PS2 game still shine and the gameplay is lotsa fun. Sadly the libretro core for Retroarch/Emulationstation bugged out for me and was slow compared to standalone PCSX2.

Also I’m still puzzled how it’s possible there are so many retro-achievements for so many games. I looked up how to implement them and it’s really complicated. I totally underestimated how big the retro games scene still is. I really want to get into the netplay thing.

Squiddles, do gaming w Has anyone tried to mark a game private in Steam? Does it work as intended?

I have two steam accounts, and I was not able to see anything related to a game marked private from my second account except when family sharing was enabled between the accounts. With family sharing on I could see all private games from my primary account on my secondary (including games which were not installed on the local system).

If you have family sharing on, hold off. Otherwise as far as I know it works as intended.

Anarki_,

Family sharing has a family view mode that lets you hide certain games unless you input a password.
