I played Everything today. That was both hilarious and wonderful. Like Proteus and Mountain it’s definitely not a game for everyone, but if some silliness and philosophy doesn’t scare you away, you’re probably going to enjoy it.

Edit: If you’d rather just watch it as a short film, then that’s possible too: cdn.jwplayer.com/previews/SrNsE3Jo-dYsrOfVj or you can let the game play itself for you if you’d rather just lean back and take it all in. Just leave the game unattended for a while and it will start playing itself. Settings for autoplay can be edited in the game’s settings menu.

I just finished Stray. I’m not really a cat person but it was actually really enjoyable. Turns out cats are great platformers!

I also finished Strange Horticulture yesterday. That was a pleasant surprise especially since it was set in the Lake District.

I’m now trying to decide between starting Baldur’s Gate 3 (I am not a fan of turn based combat), Immortality or The Talos Principle 2.

Phishr42,

I’m now trying to decide between starting Baldur’s Gate 3 (I am not a fan of turn based combat), Immortality or The Talos Principle 2.

I will say that you’ll be doing a ton of turn based combat in BG3. But it’s also one of the most well realized worlds I’ve ever played in.

I have friends who won’t play any classic RPGs because they don’t like turn based combat, but they love BG3.

If the idea of a sandbox filled with stories where you have tons of choice sounds interesting to you, I’d give it a try.

I just finished Remnant 2, and started playing it again with a different class on my PS5, but have to stop cause I am traveling. I picked up Dragon Dogma on the deck and I hated it for the first 30 minutes, but I am into it now.

I managed to get a copy of Chu Chu Rocket for Dreamcast, so that’s been one I’ve been playing. But I’ve also continued with my addiction to Backpack Hero (even if it’s slowly fading).

Getting back into Monster Hunter World! Trying to tackle those endgame Iceborne quests and getting my ass kicked quite often. It’s really satisfying getting a good build going with armor set bonuses and stacking skills.

Also finally playing Super Mario Odyssey. What a game. The controls are so tight and responsive. I love exploring every nook and cranny, high and low, and almost always getting some kind of reward out of every effort and idea.

bnjmn,

I wanna get back into MHW, but those unskippable cutscenes at the beginning are a PITA

LaserTurboShark69,

I felt the same! Luckily if you’re on PC there’s a mod you can easily install that allows you to skip cutscenes and it works very smoothly.

INSIDE absolutely blew me away a few months ago, and I got a recommendation for Little Nightmares in a discussion about it. After about half an hour, I’ve gotta say, it’s properly weird and I wonder what’s it got in stock for me.

Just finished Full Void, a pixel graphics cinematic puzzle platformer in the style of Another World. Cool original soundtrack, nice style and animation, great atmosphere and world building despite no words.

2 hours long main story, cool indie project with great attention to detail. Well worth the money.

If you play it you will be surprised who it is dedicated to, as you can read at the end of the game.

I’m playing Assassin’s Creed Mirage. It’s a nice change from the gigantic 100 hour open world epics that the series makes now and it’s a very nice looking and sounding game. The story is fairly standard for AC games (although there’s no Animus/modern day storyline this time), and the gameplay feels like what AC1 would have been if they made it today. Overall I am enjoying it a lot. I haven’t been able to play video games for the past month because I’ve been recovering from a major surgery but this has been a nice game to start up now that I can play games again.

Finished the New Game Plus for Alan Wake 2 (PS5) and got the platinum. Now i am back on Grime (PC) which is fun. I like how I dont lose all my money when i die. Also, im actually not bad at parrying here like i am in most games.

I also bought some games from the Steam Winter Sale. Started Overboard and Word Factori.

Playing the invincible, try to go in without looking into the story too much. I’m liking it so far.

Just recently started playing rimworld and I’m super hooked. Trying to complete the game vanilla first then dive into modding

Playing through my backlog, and finally gathered enough courage to play and finish Soma, and now I’m going through the Turing Test since I felt in the mood for a Portal-like game and I finished the Entropy Center not long ago.

vonxylofon,

If you haven’t, give the Talos Principle a try. It scratches the same itch as Portal for me, although the tone is less whimsical, but equally bizarre.

Oh I completed that one a long time ago, I haven’t bought the second one yet.

I just finished Talos Principle 2 and what a ride! I love Turing Test too and would also suggest Spectrum Retreat to scratch that puzzling itch.

Ohh haven’t heard of Spectrum Retreat, I’ll take a look thanks :)
