Whatcha all been playing! I got the itch for outer wilds again, which I can’t really play anymore (😭)

So I decided to start a game I’ve wanted to play for a while that I thought could scratch a similar itch: ghost trick phantom detective. It’s really good!

    Out of nowhere, I had the sudden urge to play New Vegas again, so that’s been taking up my time. Been enjoying a more Vanilla+ playthrough, just the patches to help it run better. And Someguys quest mods, but they fit right in to me. Still haven’t made my way onto The Strip, though I’ve cleared Boone’s quest and I’m working on Veronica’s(with E-DE in tow, of course).

    It’s been awhile for me, been a nice revisit. Just taking my time, and really enjoying all the little rediscoveries I’ve been making.

    Funny you mention Outer Wilds. I just recently finished Outer Wilds (first time), and so this week(end), I’ve been playing through the Echoes of the Eye portion. Really enjoying it. 😄

    Still on Dragon’s Dogma 2. (at 94 hours of playtime)

    I’m still finding new places around every corner. It’s got a ton of fun stuff to discover if you like open-world games.

    Huh, I was staring at outerwilds today thinking I should play again, but then immediately thought I’ll have to go here there here and realised it’s forever ruined for me.

    So instead I’ve been playing stellaris.

    I just got a PS5 a couple weeks ago, after almost a decade of not having a console since my PS3 died. Playing GT7 as my one and only; I grew up on Gran Turismo since GT3. Actually just got all gold on the licenses last night, so feeling pretty accomplished haha. Pretty hard to find time with a newborn and a toddler!

    More Horizon Forbidden West, just exploring, killing, looting. While I think it’s the best looking game I’ve played (on a technical level), it does have some super ugly effects, mainly the water reflections and the steam that comes out of the big doors, when you open them for the first time. Those look like ass. Also, climbing is pretty much brainless like the latest Assassin’s Creed games, but has a few too many bugs to match it. Regularly you’ll get “stuck” on a cliff, because Aloy doesn’t want to get to one of the dozens of handholds in arm’s reach. Same with climbing up on top of a rock or cliff, sometimes Aloy just refuses to do so, unless you move slightly to the side. Those are pretty minor issues, but are still annoying.

    Then, some Dave the Diver, although that’s been on the back burner this week, since I got really into Horizon.

    This week i have been playing diablo 4 again. I just want one free cosmetic and I see it as an opportunity to notice how bad the game is right now since there is going to be huge changes in next season. Somehow I found the game to be pretty okay as long as I don’t have to look at loot.

    Playing some elden ring also. My first (not completed) character a year ago was a mage and I always thought the game would be too hard for me in melee. I was so wrong and i am having much more fun playing melee. Doubt i am done before the expansion…

    Then there are Guild wars 2 wvw raids every week \o/

    Managed to get all the campaign achievements for Ghostwire: Tokyo, including a really, really stupid RNG one. There’s an extra mode called The Spider’s Thread, but I don’t think I’m going to focus on that anytime soon. I need a break from Tokyo lol.

    I wanted something that wasn’t very combat heavy next and picked Kona. For the most part it felt like Kholat meets The Painscreek Killings - a fun little detective walking sim that just lets you loose without really telling you where to go or what to do, all while taking place during a blizzard. I liked wandering around and trying to figure things out myself, and the narrator didn’t seem too overbearing. I had a good time, up until the ending. It felt rushed and just kind of… happened. Like one moment you’re going along in the forest looking for stuff, and then all of the sudden, here’s an explaination for everything in a short scene! Now literally run to the end! Bye! I was hoping for something a little more drawn out.

    I’m not really into soulslike games, but since Lies of P was on GamePass, I thought I might as well try it out. I’m actually having a good time playing it. I’m usually not great at soulslike since they can be frustrating, and I’m not a fan of “die in order to learn”, but I’m making progress and the story is kind of interesting. I really like the atmosphere, very steampunk vibes. Some of the characters could have had a little more effort put into them, but that’s a minor complaint overall.
