Diablo 3: Season 30 - Still working on the Destroyer chapter. Thinking about trying out a different build for my Monk, so I'm farming Nephalem Rifts and gambling blood shards at Kadala for specific legendary items.
Alan Wake 2 - Finally finished The Final Draft aka new game plus. Very happy that I replayed it immediately, because the ending made it worth it. Even with all the problems this game has, I'm eager to see what comes next. There's been a patch that just came out that apparently fixes a lot of bugs, but I finished the game too soon to see any of it.
Diablo 4: Season 3 - Working on Chapter 4 of the season journey and my endgame Barbarian build. Finally moved myself to World Tier 3 because things were getting too easy. I did have a little trouble until I got better gear, and now things are back to being easy again lol. If I get too comfortable, I might have to attempt the capstone dungeon for World Tier 4 to humble myself. Either that or face one of the endgame bosses on my own.
Vampyr - Been having a shit couple days and decided the best way to combat it was by being a moody vampire doctor running around London.
Currently juggling Enshrouded, Frostpunk, and Remnant 2. Enjoying all of them for very different reasons.
It’s pretty unusual for me since I don’t have as much time to enjoy games as I used to and I tend to remain pretty focused on a single title on my list at a time.
I played a few hours of Palworld, and it's serving the role of a podcast or second-screen game quite well. It's still early goings, and I'm around level 10 or so, but it's doing for me what Pokemon hasn't done in decades while simultaneously combining it with aspects I really enjoy from Factorio.
I'm also coming close to the end of Pillars of Eternity, I think. I'm in the second DLC, and I hit a huge difficulty spike, as quests available around my level have seemingly started to dry up, but I ended up grinding a few bounties and got to level 14, which got me over one difficulty spike and hopefully paved the way to keep me moving.
Besides that, I picked up Tekken 8. This is the most I've enjoyed Tekken since the third game, and I also think I'm done with it. A lot of the game makes sense to me in a way that Tekken 7 didn't, and I've come to respect it more than its predecessor for that and other reasons, but I don't think it's for me as far as being a fighting game I'd like to compete in. I can see the path to improving from here, and it looks like a lot of memorization rather than application, where I just need to know what each move or string looks like to be ready to defend it, and until I reach that point, it's just a lot of frustration. So instead, I choose to avoid that frustration and go back to fighters that I enjoy more. It's a lot of fun at a casual level and in single player mode though.
Currently playibg Hogwarts Legacy. I don’t like the Harry Potter universe but I was curious what the hype was about. My lord is that game good. The visuals, the sounds, every little detail oozes magical whimsy. There’s a lot of standard open world collecting but the world is so cozy and fun I don’t even wanna use the quick travel.
I just want to see something fresh, even if it’s revisiting something getting then that we haven’t seen in ages like jak and daxter or platforming in general. But I think the studio has changed too much for that to happen again
More Diablo 4, but I'm like 95% done with the season. My Barbarian is level 100, I've completed the Season Journey, did Tier 100 Vaults, killed all the Uber Bosses (except Lilith) at least once, etc. I could of course min-max even more, to kill enemies 10ms faster, but I won't focus on that. I'll still do some runs here and there, but will try to focus on other games for now.
There is a time-limited event, that's starting in a few days, that I'll check out, but dunno how much there is to do.
The Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster games are on sale at last, so I've snatched those up on Steam and played through the first game. I was surprised how much of the typical FF DNA was already in this. Some of the mechanics and game design are somewhat antiquated, which is to be expected for a 35+ year old game, but the QoL additions really help, to make most pretty much a non-issue.
I played Stranger of Paradise Final Fantasy Origin previously, so seeing / reading all those familiar names and locations really make me want to go back to that game.
I want to play through FF2 next week, but we'll see if the D4 event hooks me, or I find anything else.
Yeah. If you’re a conpletionist like me, you just run around picking up junk to sell to vendors so that you can buy one of every available named weapon (and store it in camp and never use it)…
Oh, there’s plot? Sorry, busy systematically looting an entire castle… I kid. A little.
I’m really enjoying how each character has a good arc, and that those arcs feel so substantially different from one another.
Spent most of my time this week, as per the ushe, playing Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition and doing setup for the Saturday campaign I run every week using the game’s DM client.
Great fun.
If anyone out there is into D&D and has free time on Saturdays, the game is cheap and you’d be welcome to join us. The server name is ALFA Sea of Swords 034: Daggerford.
Also picked up Sands of Aura, which is an indie soulslike and I’m just starting on that today. The reviews speak to excellent level design, and I love a game I can explore.
Replayed Uncharted 4 for the millionth time. Now on The Lost Legacy. Not enjoying it as much (it’s harder, for one thing). Interesting to see the developments that would go into The Last of Us 2 though (e.g. experiments with more open-world levels, and the attempt to redeem a character that’s previously been portrayed as a villain).
