Oh, I've also been playing StreetPass Mii Plaza, using NetPass to actually get visitors.

Started and finished TR-49. Gameplay-wise you'll probably enjoy it if you're a compulsive researcher like me who can't help pulling on threads. Unfortunately I went AFK and missed a timed event that I had no idea existed. This left me incredibly stuck and I had to resort to a walkthrough so I can't really comment on the majority of it. Plot and theme wise it feels very much like a commentary on AI, given that

The central premise is a machine that eats books, and enables the rich to maintain control of society by rewriting reality via people's perceptions.
Recommended if you like puzzlers, but stay in your seat.
Also been doing a replay of Dustborn, now that it's had all the content updates and QOL fixes that I've been seeing in my Steam feed. So far, I haven't noticed massive changes, although I think most of the content is towards the end. It's definitely a middle finger to the "is it woke" crowd. For that reason alone I'm glad it exists, and I'm glad I paid for it, but it still kinda falls flat and I'm honestly running out of motivation to even reach that extra content. The game tries to be too many things at once; it's a rhythm game, it's a 3rd-person beat-em-up, it's a telltale-style adventure game. Props to the dev team for trying something a bit different in that respect, but you can absolutely tell they didn't have the resources to pull it off. Rather than excel at any one thing, which I think they totally could have done, it's just kinda mid at everything. The rhythm sections are ... fine. The combat is .. okay. The character-based adventure bit is ... whoa boy do I have some thoughts about that.
rant
It could have been a really interesting exploration of the "bad powers, good people" trope (CW: tvtropes link), because the player character's abilities are all .. kinda icky at best. And while it's fun as hell to use them to fuck with fascist cops, there are sections where you are railroaded into treating your friends like crap just to move the plot along. It feels absolutely gross. Which, credit to the writers for making me feel empathy for pixels, I guess. But there's a couple of specific sections where it feels like you should be able to just .. not do that. Which is where it becomes clear that they didn't have the resources to do that style of "choices matter" gameplay properly. Because your choices -don't- matter if you don't have them, and it -really- feels like you should.
The whole thing is so frustratingly -almost- brilliant. Like with a bigger team, more time and money, it could have been amazing. There's the bones of a good game there, it just needs ... more.
I finished Sonic Adventure and now I’m on 2. I think I like 1 more, but this one is still pretty fun! I also started a playthrough of Faxanadu which has been pretty cool so far.
Tried out Star Trek Voyager Across the Unknown because I saw it on fitgirl new releases, and so far it mostly makes me want to go back and finish Star Trek Resurgence.
Tried to play eu5 again on new beta. god, this game is just plain boring. needs mission/focus trees for historical stuff and roleplaying. Every country is just the same
Playing Diablo 2 r, with new class, just trying it out. Also trying out mods, which are pretty cool.
Looking forward to RE9, which i preordered on GMG.
Project: Gorgon. I get bad vibes from some of the narrative content. I dunno if the racism, the evilness and slavery are implemented correctly. It gets kinda weird. Other than that, turning into a deer is good and fun.
Still playing Moria. Just stepped on a nasty gas trap which has left me deeply confused and unable to cast any spells. Also had a few run-ins with worm-masses reproducing explosively. The ones on this level set you on fire.
Trying to play Lobotomy Corporation. Neat concept (SCP management sim) and there is some cool stuff going on, but it's awfully tedious. Having to "research" basic UI elements is not fun. Their other games are more popular but it's all the same setting and I'll be damned if I'm gonna be a secondary.
Still playing sonic & knukcles collection on the pc, I can't get enough of the midi music.
Been EU4-ing. Got a Nepal empire going, gobbling up Malaysia before the dastardly Spaniards show up to divert my trade smh
Morrowind was always a little dated for my tastes, tho I've had some fun with Oblivion
Rogue Point.
It's a pretty fun tactical shooter but doesn't have a particularly big player base yet so I've not had much luck playing with randos.
