Currently going through Warhammer 40K: Inquisitor - Martyr. The game itself is pretty basic, there is honestly not that much variation for skills or builds, the maps are pretty repeatable outside of main storyline and performance is terrible. Still, it scratches that itch that I’ve had for the past few weeks for a hack and slash game. And smashing into a horde of Tyranids with a big hammer is pretty satisfying.
I’m on Island III of Cuphead. Just beat the Bee Boss and it was certainly brutal. Even then once you get better at understanding what you’re supposed to do with each fight it really helps.
Wow the robot is SO much worse
I started SKALD: Against the Black Priory yesterday and I’m just about an hour in, but so far it seems to be a pretty fun CRPG.
Recently got Detroit: Become Human on discount. Just began to play it this week and my wife cant let me play alone. She is super invested in the story. And so am I.
Just played Dead Cells for the first time.
Ever since trying Hades I’ve decided to give Rogue Like (Lite?) games another chance. Dead Cells definitely scratches a metroidvania itch I’ve been having for awhile. Looking forward to giving it a few runs and seeing how much I like it!
Stardew Valley. I needed something kid friendly and I’ve ran out of rally games so I decided it’s time to check out what has been added since I last played it when it released. I know it’s had some big updates but I’ve never paid attention to what the updates have been about, so there’s a bit of wonder going into the game. There are already moments where I’ve gone “I don’t remember this being in the game”.
Elden Ring. About 40 hours into it, running a dex / faith lightning build with dual bandit curved swords. Lately I think I’ve been researching builds more than actually playing though.
Elden Ring is probably my favourite game ever. It’s got some tight competition but whenever someone asks me what my absolute favourite game ever is, I default to Elden Ring.
I picked this back up recently to play through the DLC with my Golden Order caster.
I must report that triple rings of light absolutely shreds (spoiler)
ghostflame dragons
I installed The Ascent to test my new rig with Bazzite, it’s kicking my ass but I can’t seem to let it go haha
Annalynn is on sale (Switch), so I picked that up. Immensely fun, looking forward to unlocking more palettes.
Nothing picked yet. Long weeks, those past few. ;-;
Maybe I’ll play Eternal Arcadia Legend or some other GC game. Finishing franchises is fine and all, but the mood for starting something new is growing along the need to game. =)
I feel that, I haven’t had time to play a game in over a month.
I caved last week and got Sly Thieves In Time on my steam deck because for whatever reason the disc copy I have freezes up on 2 PS3s: one with and without PS2 backwards compatibility. So far still fun but not quite the level of Sly 3 yet.
I’ll also hopefully be playing Sonic Colors for the first time in general on wii if the SD card I ordered arrives by Friday.
Since you mention “without backwards compatibility”, I guess you are preparing your own installers to run the game. If so, try to look if there are any known issues between the PS3’s emulator and the game, and if there are, look for the patch to inject when creating the installer. And if you’re running CFW, iirc you just need to place the patch file in the same folder as the ISO.
I just mentioned backwards compatibility because they’re two separate models. Not focusing on that feature so much because I don’t think it has much impact on PS3 games played on a native console.
I probably worded my previous comment in a weird and kinda vague way, so my bad for being an idiot. I happen to have 2 unmodified PS3s of different models I have access to, so no CFW. Would love to have a PS3 with CFW but I can’t and won’t do it to either of my brother’s PS3s.
Ah, I see. Sorry for misinterpreting it.
I’m playing Akimbot and it kinda sucks. I didn’t realize I was buying a kid’s game :/
I tried the demo for it during Steam Next Fest and the third-person shooting was interesting but wow, the two main characters have no chemistry with each other.
The characters and the story are so obnoxious dude. Pretty graphics/art and the music is good at least. I just beat Ghostrunner 2 and it feels like I’m still playing that game with all the wallrunning, grappling hooks, and last kill slo-mo lol
Into The Breach
It works perfectly with just touch controls. Eden emulator runs the Switch version perfectly on my phone. I hadn’t really played the game properly before (would just die quickly and not know how to proceed). Now I’m starting to get the hang of it and can play it for brief gaps in my day now that it is on my phone.
Just finished Ico. Heard it was really influential. Overall I really liked it, though it did make me appreciate the improvements in game design that have happened in the last 20 years
Played it before. Most non-horror horror game I’ve played yet. Pretty good though.
Also the extra scene at the ending from the remaster is very sweet, pun intended.
Ori and the blind forest, second playtrough
