I'm enjoying Little Rocket Lab, and that got me thinking about other games that mix genres (like Before The Echo and Hi-Fi Rush). After that, I'll check out Yakuza 0: Director's Cut. And I might replay Yakuza Kiwami 1/2 before Yakuza Kiwami 3 and Dark Ties comes out.

I'm also waiting to see if my friends are willing to play Diner Bros 2 or the new PlateUp update with me.

Build 42 didn't have multiplayer until now. Previous builds did.

I didn't keep up with project zomboid for, like, ten years, but I'm a bit confused by the title. I thought the game already had multiplayer.

I saw Tamriel Rebuilt had a big release and decided it was time to get OpenMW running and install a modlist. It's a little unnerving just how much I remember about the original game, and TR is very well executed.

How does it run and control on steam deck?

Returned to Kingdom Come: Deliverance II with the intention to finish the main quest and DLCs. I had already completed all the side quests by the time I took a break from the game.

I am done with Brushes with Death, made some progress in Legacy of the Forge and advanced the main quest almost to the "point of no return" and took a first peek at Mysteria Ecclesiae.

In a way, I don't want the game to end, so I am a bit hesitant to rush everything to its conclusion, but since I've already clocked 150 hours by now it's really time to wrap it up.

But as fun as the game is, personally I feel the original KC:D offered a better experience. It had better quests, a better open world, a more personal, relatable story and a perk to automate the alchemy mini game.

Personally, in the roughly 50 hours I spent with All under Heaven, I did not notice any graphical performance issues, but if people did and that is finally addressed, I'll gladly take the reduced fan noise or extra FPS.

I guess I should also be continuing my campaign ... kinda stopped after making it from Adventurer to Emperor (over the course of three generations). But the most fun is always in the beginning.

Wow, memory unlocked, played this game a lot back in the day!

Due to a lack of time and energy (30+ gamer here), I'm finally trying to make some progress in BG3. Otherwise, I'm jumping back and forth between Anno 117, MTG Arena and Bloomtown.

Reminded me that there is a sale again on Steam too. So there i go again, to buy something just for their top notch Linux stance and support. GOG can still wait until they come up with current times (Linux support)

Downwell is the only thing I'm playing nowadays.

That's a blatent rip-off of the art style, etc...., but I guess imitation is the most sincerest form of flattery.

That being said; it's not native Linux, so I'll just keep giving my money to Factorio since we have that option.

Quoting: awesomeXpossumPentiment, Pathfinder:Kingmaker and also replaying the first Pillars of Eternity again in the newly added turn-based mode

are you having any issues with the turn based mode? It's still in beta, so just wondering if I should keep waiting ...

A bit off topic, but reading Stella reminds me of Pengling... like we lost her at the same time of the GOL's forum.
If anyone can confirm she's OK?

@Stella Is the reason, by any chance, is that they won't accept players modding their game? 2 DRM is indeed awful, first time I hear about Capcom Protector it seems.

Been playing a bit of Balatro lately, haven't had the time or motivation to play anything else.. Hopefully I can clear some of my backlog in the upcoming weeks.

I've been trying out some games on Amazon Luna. Up till now, I had ignored it since the free stuff was less than interesting. But they put Indiana Jones and the Great Circle (a game too heavy for my pc) and Hogwarts Legacy (a game unsuitable for purchase due to failing consumer friendliness restrictions) on there so I've been playing those.

I've enjoyed my time, but it's immediately clear to me that this is not the default way that I want to play my games. Input lag is noticeable. This especially problematic in menus and when trying to fire a gun. Not really an issue with other stuff though as these games are not particularly quick.

Quoting: Tethys84I went to Nexusmods to see what mods there were for Stellar Blade, as I do for most games I buy... Big mistake... just gross.

I mean, what did you expect? I'm not really surprised. ^^

Factorio Space Age for the last two months... It's really nice, but man it's so much work, lol

Also playing Valheim with my wife. We're about to enter Mistland, so in "preparation" we're spending a few weeks building a fancy house.

Quoting: notinuseI've been playing Legend of Grimrock 2. I like old-type dungeon crawls similar to Dungeon Master, and Grimrock 2 adds outdoor areas that work better than I expected. Having a lot of fun crawling around the sewers.

This is high on my list! You think it'd be good on the Deck? Or is a mouse keyboard better?

Where Winds Meet, Stellar Blade, and Project Zomboid.

I'm really loving Where Winds Meet. It's the first online game I've truly enjoyed for a long while now. I just hope it doesn't turn into the typical NetEase game eventually.

I went to Nexusmods to see what mods there were for Stellar Blade, as I do for most games I buy... Big mistake... just gross.

After 70 hours or so I just finished Immortals Fenyx Rising that was recently given away by Ubisoft. Overall a good game in the Ubi style of a large map with lots of "points of interest" to explore. Decent, if relatively simple, puzzles and combat, but the story and dialog are terrible. After 60+ hours it was all getting a bit same-y so I rushed through the main story to finish the game.

I just got War Mongrels from a Fanatical bundle which I hope will fill the real-time tactics void that Mimimi left. I've only played half an hour or so and, though I don't think it'll be up to Mimimi standards (and the controls are annoying), it looks pretty good.

Also tried once again to get into Outer Wilds with not much luck but will persevere...

In an effort to finish some uncompleted games in my library, I'm back to MechWarrior 5: Clans after dropping the difficulty. Once I realized I just wanted to finish the story and was sick of getting stomped in every campaign it became a much more enjoyable experience.

I've also been jumping between Demonschool and Blippo+. Demonschool's good for when I want a bit of tactical puzzle action, and Blippo+ has been great when I just want to watch some TV without actually picking something. I also enjoy it's general weirdness and impressively accurate reproduction of 80's public access.

Still Duet Night Abyss. I also play Wagotabi to practice my Japanese and some Umamusume from time to time. So nothing fancy really ;)

[quote=Eike]I just bought Another Lost Phone: Laura's Story because they are going to remove it from Steam, and it was heavily discounted. It's, well, ... more "Lost Phone".

I just picked the bundle, thanks for the tip. Years ago I played through Simulacra and enjoyed it. Sounds like it may be similar.

Deus Ex: Revision.

better late than never I suppose… the biggest culprit here must be the 2 DRM's they are running AT THE SAME TIME (Denuvo and Capcom Protector), and what's worse is that the game apparently checks every single texture going in and out of memory. Such a waste of processing cycles for nothing useful.

Shame on you Capcom for treating your paying customers so badly.

After spending most of this year gaming on my desktop, I've finally returned to the Steam Deck OLED and "fixed" the awful static issue the 3.5mm jack had on a lot of launch models by slightly loosening the screws holding down the audio board. So to fully make use of a static-free headphone jack, I've been relaying Furi.

Banging soundtrack and an overall exhilarating game. I'm about halfway through and love it just as much as I did the first time round many years ago.

I haven't abandoned my PC completely though and have been making my way through Two Point Hospital. Another game with a fantastic soundtrack (though for wildly different reasons) and it's generally a relaxing time. I'm currently at the Tumble hospital and my receptionists keep whining about needing to go to the toilet despite the overwhelming amount of toilets I build for them, but it's otherwise going smoothly.

Tokyo Xtreme Racer (I beat it and started a NG+ run), Blood Refreshed Supply, Chasm, Xuan-Yuan Sword 7, Halls of Torment, Yet Another Zombie Survivors, and I went back to Earth Defense Force 5 too. And that's just the PC games.
