I've been mostly bouncing between FFXIV and Rimworld.

Slowly going through Stray and Disco Elysium. I have like 30 minutes a week to spend on gaming ๐Ÿ˜ฅ

Me too. Small children or something else keeping you busy?

[โ€“] Broca@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Same situation. Stray great game for picking up and putting down on the deck

Enjoying Diablo 4 at the moment. If I'm not on that, I play a fair bit of Hell Let Loose.

[โ€“] Qwazpoi@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Kenshi mostly. It's a post apocalyptic sandbox in space that will run in a potato

Aoe4. New patch dropped last week for new season. Gonna learn different civs.

I do mostly FFXIV and emulation, but just got into RuneScape 3 and it's super fun. I was quite surprised, as it's not a very actiony game, but the questing and style just grows on you.

In-between FFXIV time I've heavily gotten back into Skyrim due to a wabbajack list called Fable Lore. I haven't played anything new in a long time. Not even sure what id get.

Currently about 25-30 hours into Days Gone (ps5) and thoroughly enjoying it.

The moral of that story is a) don't listen to ign b) metacritic user score is more relevant than critic score

Then need to finish Jedi survivor which I quit half way because of the bounty (and various other) bug(s)

Tears of the kingdom has finally broke my ftl: faster than light addiction

[โ€“] Sirico@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Finally started Red Dead 2 best animal petting simulator I've played I petted a bun so hard it's fur came off with my hand

[โ€“] awake@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Dwarf Fortress! Tried and failed to get into it many times before the Steam release, and now completely hooked.

[โ€“] robbieIRL@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Started Tears of the Kingdom a day before release. Not played anything else since. And the size of this game, it might be a while before I play anything different.

Tabletop RPGs, online sadly. Hard to find people in my town who are up for some adventures with pen and paper. And copious amounts of dice.

[โ€“] rayquetzalcoatl@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I've never played a single TTRPG (altho I'd love to) - but dice are so satisfying!

[โ€“] Red_Ed@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

They're definitely not as popular as video games, I guess because they require a bit more investment and a reliable group of people. But are definitely more fun in my opinion.

And the shiny maths rocks are fickle but fun.

Mostly Rimworld, which must be real underwhelming for my beefy machine.

Underclocking both my CPU and GPU and still getting 165 FPS.

[โ€“] Transcendant@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Just completed the latest No Man's Sky expedition... getting close to finishing the main story in the new Zelda. I pretty much tend to play one game at a time until I'm done with it before moving onto the next.

Very much trying to tamp down my hype & excitement for Starfield and Fable... wait, Duke Nukem? Is there a new Duke Nukem?! I used to make maps for DN3D that we'd play over modem (BEEEP BROOOOOP BRRRRRRRR), my friends quickly learned that the high-powered weapon seductively placed on a pedastal with flashing lights was always a squishing trap.

Really enjoying Diablo 4 at the moment, first game in a while that I can spend more than an hour playing before getting bored. Also been playing Chivalry 2 occasionally with friends just for some light hearted fun.

[โ€“] GadolElohai@kbin.social 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

My newest minor obsession has been Dungeon Defenders 1, though I wish I was playing Ace Combat 7.

[โ€“] Donjuanme@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Is that game still going? I remember when dd2 came out, I played it for a bit and it fouled my taste so much that I never went back to dd1, I had hundreds, if not a thousand, hours in dd1.

[โ€“] goodnessme@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Playing Diablo IV! Just finished the somewhat lackluster campaign which is definitely a prologue to something much more grand coming in the future expansions. But nobody really plays it for the story, right...

[โ€“] timception@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Been holding off due to the price and amount of friends who said they already beat it.

[โ€“] goodnessme@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It is indeed quite expensive but considering how many hours I have played Diablo 2 and 3 as well as the extreme replayability of D4, the price per hour is actually low in my case. If you like the Diablo gameplay, it's a lot of fun!

Oceanhorn, while I'm thinking about what my next "real" game will be. Sometimes I like to chill with some low stress little games in between, y'know?
