Under Night In-Birth II [Sys:Celes] - I WON A FIVE MAN BRACKET WOOOOO Also played some Skullgirls casuals for a little while after the bracket ended.
Mahjong Soul/Riichi City/IRL mahjong - Ever since Balatro blew up, people have been joking about when we're gonna see the mahjong roguelike next. Then four different ones went into development. Then Mahjong Soul surprised dropped a fifth one as a limited time event, and it might be the most promising of all of them. Then I broke the hell out of it.
Splatoon 3 - Team practice. Don't have any cool clips to share rn, maybe next week.
I've technically completed out the season in Diablo 4: Season 5, but I've decided to see if I could go for a completionist run and get every objective. I'm thinking about remaking a couple of my other characters in different classes, since I finished so quickly, but that depends on how motivated I'm going to be once I'm satisfied with the state of my current Necromancer.
Still crawling around in Alien: Isolation. I'm kind of stuck in one section because the androids keep killing me, but I don't have enough ammo or items to fight all of them. I've reverted to running around them and hoping they eventually give up following me, but since I don't have a map and it's been a while since the last time I played, I'm not sure where exactly to run to. I might have to give up and look up a walk through so I can get through this area.
Ok, I’m a bit out of the loop but is Deadlock actually any good? Like, most of what I’ve heard is that it just isn’t very fun. Even though they kinda fell apart the auto battler and the card game from Valve were generally fairly well received from what I remember. But everything I’ve heard about Deadlock is that it’s not fun, and is bringing the worst elements of DOTA with it.
Maybe since it’s barely even a thing yet, it might wildly change since that’s part of the Valve MO.
The thing is I don’t think it has anything to offer to bring in people from outside the genre. Some people really enjoy it but you kinda have to already be into that kind of thing (DOTA).
It was originally just to see how things had changed, but a lot changed and it’s very different. Not that it answered all of my personal issues with it, but I resigned myself to using a build guide. I’ve been enjoying it, surprisingly. Enough that, when I haven’t been out of the house, I usually play it daily.
Progress is going really slow because I’m not that good at the game anymore. But I also made loot filter sounds that spark joy, and I’ve been managing even if I’d like to be at endgame. I’m on act 6 out of 10.
My partner is also playing but doesn’t have a lot of experience. So I’ve been trying to help, which makes it more enjoyable to me because I like to teach.
Not sure if I’m fully going back yet. But I like the league mechanic and am having a good time.
I’ve found that some games can still play after you’ve cut them off from the internet (in app settings from the phones general settings) but will no longer be able to display ads (and I assume microtransactions also won’t work then). Which might make some of the options you’ve currently ruled out work for you?
My first though was “Hell yea, another Pillars of Eternity game” then I remembered that Deadfire has been out for a long time and Avowed was announced a while ago.
There is a !horizon community but unfortunately there just isn’t the interest to build an active community here (on Lemmy) for specific games at the moment. !games seems to be a good place for it at the moment but feel free to cross-post.
I am getting excited for it! They’ve been making some great QoL improvements for PoE lately, I’m looking forward to seeing what everything they’ve done with 2.
I’d highly recommend Stolen Realms. Pretty cheap too
It’s a hex grid turn based game. You can have up to 6 characters (difficulty scales per character) and can each control as many in the party as you want. Turns are taken as enemy, and players with the players able to act at the same time so you aren’t waiting too long if you are communicating about what you want to do.
It has multiple “classes” with skill tiers that require you to take a few from that “class” but you can spec however you want.
The roguelike mode is very fun for quick sessions and will reward you with a choice of random skills and armors after every fight, but it also saves if you need to go and play later.
