I just platinumed Jedi Survivor (which was awesome, you should play it) and I'm looking for my next new awesomeness to play.

Completely burned out, but I occasionally play Death Stranding, because that bad boy knows how to keep everything tight. I'm thinking about delving into the world of emulation, maybe some TRPGs - will see.

Replaying Control, I can play this one repeatedly.

[–] Voytrekk@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

I have been finishing up Tunic. The game is fantastic and I love seeing all of the small little things that have been accessible the whole time that I have since gained the knowledge to interact with.

[–] GustavoM@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

Lemmy. It's a pretty nice minigame whilst between breaks.

...

what?

[–] MiddleWeigh@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Nah this is a legit answer.

I've been playing Battlebit Remastered on Steam and holy shit while it looks awful it's one of the funnest FPS I have played in a while. Super fun, super smooth, and scratches the COD itch from when I was a kid. I HIGHLY reccomend it!

Also Tears of the Kingdom.

[–] teft@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That's the low poly shooter right? That actually looks pretty fun. I'll have to try it.

[–] SPOOSER@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Yeah I was hesitant at first because of the low poly but the gameplay is top tier.

Steam Deck:

  • This means warp (co-op rogue-like that's pretty fun)
  • Dicey Dungeons

PC:

  • Tiny Tina's Wonderlands
  • Guild Wars 2
[–] MissJinx@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I'm an old lady so I'm playing farm tycoon on switch and Kairosoft's dream town island on my phone.

[–] baconpancakes@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

just beat red dead redemption 2. seriously epic story and amazingly gorgeous environments. going to dabble in red dead online just to get a few more achievements. thinking elden ring next!

[–] Schooner@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago (4 children)

Almost done with Control right now. It's a really good game. A little too creepy though!

[–] DharkStare@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Control is one of my favorite games. Everything about it was excellent. I'm so glad they're making a sequel.

My router died a couple of days ago (using mobile data to post this) do I have to play offline games... Good thing I installed a bunch of games on GoG just in case. Tried out Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis this morning, currently clearing the tutorial dungeon in Daggerfall Unity.

[–] vgfn@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Beat the Miles Morales game recently. Got 100% completion too. Not often I ever complete a game either. Still got a ways to go with Tears of the Kingdom, and then probably a return to Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories. I've gotta beat that game and I can finally play KH2 with a clear conscience.

Right now, Battlebit Remastered (which I just bought). Despite being not that good at the gunplay yet, I'm doing well and having fun just playing a medic and dragging people out of the line of fire for revives and heals. Highlight of today was frantically healing everyone in a full chopper while we dueled an enemy chopper over a capture point, with the pilot micspamming Pirates of the Caribbean music the whole time. Really brings me back to the good ol days of multiplayer lobbies (without a lot of the casual bigotry - game seems pretty good at actually banning it so far).

[–] Kerwala@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

DayZ and Dwarf Fortress. The DF official soundtrack is so ooooo good

[–] ZoeyCutieshy@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

Kingdom Eighties, it came out today and it's a little bit of a spinoff from the traditional kingdom games, quite fun tho!

[–] Botree@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Currently playing Death Stranding and feeling fit from the amount of virtual walking and carrying I've done. Next in queue is Everspace 2.

Mix of Diablo 4 and Halo Infinite multi-player depending on which friend group is online. Technically started AC:Valhalla as my single player game, but I get so little alone gaming time these days that I'm still only 45 minutes in after 3 weeks.

[–] MiddleWeigh@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I have skyrim running on a janky PC. Haven't played it in a little bit, but I'm always about to lol. Soon enough.

[–] _sideffect@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Totk and I started to listen to earthbound music while at work, so I loaded up Mother 1 on 3ds... The save game put me at magicant, and I went back to the starting town and got killed by a death truck... Ninten can't breathe!

[–] CitizenKong@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Having a blast with FF XVI. It's definitely one of the most polished of recent games, everything just looks and plays fantastic. Even if the game is super shallow as soon as you do anything other than the main story. The fantastic voice of Ralph Ineson is the cherry on top.

First witcher right now. Tried it like 10 years ago and couldn't get past the clunky controls. In the meantime I've read most of the books and played the other games, so I had to give it a go and this time around I'm really enjoying it!

[–] garrettz@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Wrapping up Hollowknight, finished up elden ring before that. Looking to try out FFXVI.

Was wanting to check out the jedi games too.

I've been stuck on All The Mods 8 (Minecraft "kitchen sink" modpack) for the last week or two. Kinda just caveman-ing my way through all the quests. Playing with Minecolonies and setting up an RFTools Builder in the mining dimension so I don't have to manually mine most resources any more. I keep meaning to get back into ComputerCraft, maybe that's my objective for this evening.

Torturing myself with Assassin's Creed series, I just beat Valhalla though, pretty good but could have been better if it was about half as long. That, and Tomb Raider series, made it to Underworld.

[–] narp@feddit.de 2 points 2 years ago

Black Mesa.

I started with Half Life 2 and played a lot of Counter Strike back in the days. This brings back memories even if I never played it and it's way better than I thought, too!

[–] ultrasquid@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

I'm not usually a fan of triple a games, but I bought Doom Eternal yesterday and its been really good so far.

[–] techtalkf@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Legend of Zelda BoTW. Trying to finish the game before I start playing ToTK.

[–] _sideffect@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You're definitely going to burn yourself out on that formula

Currently playing Octopath 2. It’s has some interesting plot points and I like the turn based combat system and has a great nostalgia style for old pixel games.

[–] Evrala@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Currently playing through the FFVII remake, really enjoying it. Never played the original ff7 but engaged with some ff7 adjacent content like Advent Children.

When I don't have much time I'm playing through Cult of the Lamb on my Steam Deck and it's really quite charming!

[–] EchoCranium@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 years ago

7 Days to Die. Basic zombie survival game. Friends and I set up a server and have been playing on and off for the past 2 years. The latest alpha version (A21) came out recently, so started playing again.

Been messing around with Tears of the Kingdom and doing a nostalgia tour through Team Fortress 2.

Taking kind of a hiatus from Satisfactory, kinda curious if my GPU is up to running Update 8 tbh.

[–] solidsnake2085@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

You should try the Yakuza games. I'm currently on Yakuza 0 with 150 hours in it. I'm gonna have to play through again to get all the achievements, but it has been one of most fun games I've ever played.

[–] linkinkampf19@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Mostly PC based stuff. Currently just started Unpacking, chill little cozy game. Been playing Voidigo for my fun twitch shooter fill. American/Euro Truck Simulator in VR for my sit back and drive fill. Skyrim VR for immersion.

[–] iNeedScissors67@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Final Fantasy XVI, and it's consuming my thoughts to a degree that surprises me, considering I haven't really liked one of those games since FFX. I've already put 15 hours on it since Friday (quite a bit for me, I don't get very much time to game these days). It really is incredible; I haven't had this much fun with a game since probably Read Dead II. I'm also playing Battlebit Remastered on the rare occasion that my friends and I are able to game at the same time.
I travel for work so on my laptop I installed Fallout 4 with a modpack obtained through Wabbajack installer (Welcome to Paradise) and I'm playing through as a melee-only knight. I'm using console commands to stock up on stimpacks and radaway so that I don't have to stop and loot since I've played this game several times; I can just run around like a madman with a sword, slicing legions of enemies apart. Playing it as an action game has been a ton of fun.

Also nice username/pic @Teft, I'm a big Stormlight Archives fan.

[–] giacomo@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Signalis - grabbed it on sale and playing through on steam deck.

Stellaris - I've spent too much time building empires only to lose interest in mid/late game.

Diablo 4. It's good, not great but I think it's a good foundation to build upon. I'm interested to see what Blizzard does for season 1. I don't expect anything dramatic like Diablo 3's latest season, but I'm still looking forward to it.

Still playing Tears of the Kingdom.

I will launch up Tactic Ogre Reborn when I'm traveling. Working on endgame right now in that one.

[–] FantasticFox@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Kingdom Come: Deliverance, I started playing AC:Syndicate too. I just want to try to play the games I've been meaning to get to before Starfield and CP2077:Phantom Liberty release because then I will have no time at all for any other games.

[–] Papaw@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Just started Final Fantasy 16 today! Not very far in yet but I am enjoying it. Seems a little easy so far though but at least the combat looks cool lol

[–] conciselyverbose@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

Just started back into Elden Ring. It's crazy how much of the map is still left 140 hours in.

[–] CerineArkweaver@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Final Fantasy XVI while keeping up with my dailies on Final Fantasy XIV and Star Trek Online and Savage raiding in Final Fantasy XIV

[–] vaultjanitor@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Replaying RDR2. I never beat it the first time, got burnt out around 80-90% of the story and gave up. Planning on finishing it up this time around.

Jump Ultimate Stars online and Chrono Trigger on DS

Batman Arkham Knight on PS4

[–] Ignacio@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

I finally managed to use KeeperFX on my computer, so I'm playing Dungeon Keeper through it. And I'm also playing OpenRCT2.
