Started Spider-Man: Miles Morales and am loving it so far. It’s not as good as Spider-Man (in terms of making me invested in the storyline) but it’s good.

(Spider-Man Miles Morales)I love the way how Miles is kinda overpowered in this game too.

Baldur’s Gate 3. And when I’m finally through it, I’m going to start Wrath of the Righteous. My sister’s had it for a while and I only recently saw what it was about and I have to play it.

forgotaboutlaye,

BG3 for me as well. I'm just a handful of hours into Act 2 after spending 20+hrs in Act 1. So far, I preferred the less dreary scenery of Act 1, but still enjoying the way the story is going. Can't express enough how blown away I've been by this game so far. I haven't been so hooked on an RPG since Witcher 3.

I play Baldur's Gate 3, too. But I don't know what I'm doing... I found out I lost Laezel somewhere.. I don't even remember where and thought it was just a tutorial... I'm too weak to fight Nere and cannot move on in the main quest, because "it's too dangerous" and I don't know where to go to get stronger. I'm wandering along the old areas and try to find out what to do.

I’m so strong, I haven’t even had to fight Nere; both times I reached that part, motherfucker was already dead somehow. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I’m guessing you lost Lae’zel after the nautiloid crashed? You need to explore the map a little more. She isn’t too far from where you’d find Gale; but apparently, something like 70% of players miss Gale, too. Which is crazy since they’re like 10 feet from the crash site up north.

DarylDutch,

I missed Gale since the description of the portal said it felt dangerous. Only returned 3 levels later thinking there was a challenge.

This is why I save before doing anything. Some of the game overs you can get are hilarious. I got turned into a wedge of cheese once!

TipRing,

I ended up fighting Nere really early before finishing most of Act 1 and reloaded that fight just so many times before finally winning with some creative strategies.

Nothing. Really want to play the outer worlds but with starfield just around the corner I don’t want to burn out.

Playing through the Quake 2 Remaster with a nostalgic feeling. Now, having kids, I realize that I should not have had access to that at 13 yo. Distribution channels were different in 1997.

Damn right you shouldn’t have had access to the Quake 2 remaster in 1997. Time travel violates the laws of established physics.

Just started but, man, i love that vibe of adventurer going to fight vigilante who is totally not my own brother by kicking asses of city guardians.

After reading a book on Roman emperors I started playing Rome 2. Because of the problematic launch I never progressed far in the campaign. It seems the game was properly patched as I’m having a blast now.

I always enjoyed Rome TW, but it lacks some core game mechanics that Rome 2 does way better: political scheming, civil war, provinces, garrison, … I also loathed the anachronistic representation of certain cultures in Rome TW.

In short: even if it’s already 10 years old, I can’t recommend the game enough, certainly when you are a romanophile!

With the Divide et Impera mod, I think it's the best historic TW game. Especially if you're in to Roman history and like realism.

Djennik,

Thx for the tip. What does this mod do?

I’m playing through portal 2 with a friend who only played the single player. I didn’t realise how many amazing maps are out there in the workshop, I’d highly recommend revisiting if you’re looking for a great coop game!

I recently discovered Graveyard Keeper. I’m ashamed that I put already a multitude of hours into it while I just bought it beginning of this week. It’s like Stardew Valley but with a grim sense of humor. They even copied the fishing mechanics from SDV

Bassman1805,

It’s a fun one. Not nearly as open-ended as SDV, but it has more of an actual story to tell so that’s okay.

I recommend the DLC, they flesh out the story a lot.

Do they also have the „click“ on the up position? Amazon reviews are full of horror stories, and I hope that would get fixed.

BennyInc,

Also, do they still support Amiibos?

I read this in stereotyped Italian fuckin Mario voice.

AAA stands for “Abig Afuckin’ Abuget”

What funding?

Uh… Didn’t WOTC commission and pay for the game? I read that they went to Larian, not the other way around.

Iron_Maniac,

Not correct Larian reached out to WOTC coast first to try get the licence after Divinity Original Sin but were turned down because they felt that they were too new. Was only after DOS2 that they got the license.

Riven,

New? They’ve been around since the 90s. Original Sin was like the 5th or 6th Divinity game.

I think that one (HUGE) part of BG3’s success is that it was in Early Access for, what, 2-3 years? During which it grew a dedicated modding scene, received a metric fuck-ton of feedback, and regularly dropped large content patches. This wasn’t an average dev cycle, and I think it shows. In some ways, the Dev. Feedback and interactivity reminded me a lot of the way Warframe does dev interactions.

AceCephalon,
@AceCephalon@pawb.social avatar

Yeah, I agree with that similarity to Warframe’s level of developer interaction.

Sure, in the past they’ve been slower to respond to feedback about problems, and often times old things have fallen out of relevance because something else just outright does the same thing, and more, but better.

But as it is now, DE really seems to be prioritizing listening to feedback, almost exponentially so, and as an example, bringing things up to par with what they should be at the current level of the game, a concept that much more rarely got the implementation it deserved in years before.

CheeseNoodle,

And warframe has been rewarded with a practically methusalian lifespan for a game in its genre, I hope we see the same for baldurs gate 3 with a similar level of ongoing support and improvement.
