What are you playing this weekend?

By -
It's the weekend already? Oh goodie! Time to dust off that game collection you've been neglecting due to work, school, family or whatever. Tell me what you're playing and what you think to it.

I am going to be playing a mixture of different games, but I am looking forward to properly diving back into XCOM 2 tonight which I have sadly let collect e-dust on Steam while I've been so busy with everything else.

XCOM 2 is just such a cracking time sink and all around great strategy game, love it.

I will also be playing Ballistic Overkill with the IRC crew tonight, so come join the fun. Might even livestream it so keep an eye on our Twitch to watch the silliness. Warning: We use rather colourful language when playing games online together. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

Dota 2 as always

SteamWorld Heist, FTL (suddenly) and Transmissions: Element 120. The last part of Dreamfall Chapters has been released today but the Mac/Linux versions still suffer from random dots issue and it's been half a year since I reported it. No response from RedThreadGames and no fix apparently. It even became worse in some regards. The game itself is great, the non-windows support... not so much.
Dead Island Definitive...

well it seems xcom very time consuming and addictive on me. Also Tomb Raider has good exploration. so
Xcom
Tomb Raider
CS:GO
Dota2
Borderlands2 for my holiday.
SteamWorld Heist...
I am really enjoying SteamWorld Heist! They have managed to make an almost perfectly balanced game...

I'm planning on playing some Dwarf Fortress again, hoping that this time it will not crash after hours without saving...
Should it crash again, I'll officially call my savegame "broken", and play something else. Probably Darkest Dungeon.

Nothing. I'm glued to the TV watching Le Mans.

I'll probably finish Dead Island DE this weekend if I don't watch every footy match ;).

It's still as fun as I remember it, only with less bugs and better looking :D.

Till the end of The International I will probably not play much else.

hardpenguin 18 Jun 2016
I just finished Bound By Flame today! Quite nice RPG. Will be probably playing more DOTA2.

I am considering buying Ballistic Overkill, but I am afraid that the playerbase might be too small for me :(
PUN 18 Jun 2016
Just finished Transmissions: Element 120.

I am trying to complete the first Torchlight but hell, this game is waaaaayyyy longer than it seems. I'm addicted.

I'm playing Higurashi when They cry chapter 3 this weekend :-) Great visual novel
GloW 18 Jun 2016
Just finished Witcher 2.
I supose that a witcher 3 port is out of the picture for now, so the story may stop here for me.

Next is Transmission: Element 120 (I've already played when I helped with the linux port, but didi not finish it at the time) or Monstrum.

I can't play s*** because this stupid 6 core amd phenom II 1090t desktop can't install an OS and bring up a UI. I've been trying since last Friday. I got linux mint 17.3 installed at first and added nvidia drivers and had it up for a while but the cpus were busy busy busy doing nothing according to top making it useless so after trying several rootkit searches andf upgrading the kernel to no avail I gave up and decided to install NEON KDE (which I like and which works very well on my laptop and even boots with UEFI) with the option to not download any updates during install. What I hate is if I do check that option there will be no UI and I can't see what is going on after the reboot for hours, so now F that. All I want is the OS and I'll do the updating myself. What I don't understand is if Mint had a problem with my Nvidia card why did NEON boot right up with graphics when using the usb stick to boot it?

I'm trying to finish all my Windows games at the moment so I can't finally scrap it for good. After finishing The Banner Saga 2 I'm going to start with The Wolf Among Us.
