It's the weekend and it has again been a while since we had a community talking point article, so here we are!
Time to make a cup of your favourite brew, put on some headphones, turn the volume up and get some serious gaming done. The question is though: what play button do we click on? What game eats up all of our time?
For a lot of people that will be a stupid question as the answer is probably…Valheim. It certainly is for me, as it's an absolutely fantastic experience. In my own play-through, the second boss has recently been defeated after a casual 50+ hours and it just keeps on getting better. So much to see and do, so much to discover and get excited about.
If you're interested, a developer on Twitter made a thread about some Valheim performance troubles and it's an interesting little read. Now that Iron Gate have plenty of monies from over 6 million sales, hopefully they can get someone in to go through the game and optimize it some more.
Valheim has sucked me in so much so that I've not had much time to go back to the also excellent Loop Hero, which is sat in my library begging to be played. It feels good to have so many great games waiting though!
Over to you in the comments: what have you been playing recently? Do tell us your thoughts on it.

I think Civ6 is the best Civilization game and hope Aspyr will repair it.
) and Loop Hero. Yeah, not a lot of differences for the past few weeks.

However, those went all on pause when I started playing Baldur's Gate III (Proton) with my brother and some friends.
I got through the first boss and gave up on Valheim. I love the exploration and building, but am not keen on games that lock crafting/building behind defeating bosses. It's not a bad game, just not really for me, I think. :)

Also yesterday, I realized I was so stuck that I literally used every item not only with every other item, but with every hot spot in every place I could get to. After that, my last resort was to use the hot spot display functionality - which I never use in any adventure. I helped my, I realized that "window" and "window" were actually two different ones, which was not clear to me by the image.
And after that... there came the news what was changed in the little update: They added the hot spot functionality, though they said they didn't consider it necessary. :D
I have plans to try Surviving mars again and maybe some Raft. Let's see when Valheim lets me go :)

Unfortunately I'm having a weird eye issue where my vision spins for a few minutes, which started while watching an Odyssey cutscene. If that continues I'll call the Dr

Quoting: Mindus_Amitiel_DebsinI have been playing The Elder Scrolls Online, which I have been playing on and off since the beta. I was previously playing in Lutris, but it was unstable no matter the configuration.
I asked some questions and got a very excellent response from "class101 [Linux]", who showed I how to play non-Steam-ESO in the Steam version of the game, along with screenshot and addons support!
My Steam Forum Post, with Soution
I plan on doing a write-up to this, to help others, when I have some more free time.
I played a *lot* of ESO until maybe 6 months ago. My old PC was pretty much literally just an ESO terminal... then I stopped after the utterly butchery of the Vampire skill lines & Mythic items. I'm tempted to return periodically, since I still have 11 max CP characters and well over 5mill gold in the bank
