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.

    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!

    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/

    Recently started Rise of the Tomb Raider, still at the main menu adjusting settings. My PC is a little crap so I gotta take a hit in performance and graphics

    Specs: R5 430 Core i3-2120 10gb RAM

    FFVII rebirth. It’s very good but still a bit of a letdown. I don’t get why they went for Ubisoft style copy paste open world. The main story content is quite low in many locations. For me the best parts of the remake are the brilliant characters, the interesting world and the story, rebirth doesn’t play to those strengths.

    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. 😄

    Yakuza Like a Dragon.

    It’s not Yakuza 0, that game was so much fun, the minigames were more interactive, and it only felt like a grind when shaking down Mr Shakedown, then putting money into upgrades.

    Like a Dragon just feels slower, and more grinding. Story is cool, substories are amazing. But the minigames are less entertaining, and business management is as bad as Kiryus one.

    I miss the cabaret so much

    Mainly playing Rimworld, FF7 Rebirth, and a little bit of the Ace Attorney Apollo Justice Trilogy. Also finished the visual Coffee Talk last night.

    Dead cells. Never played it before, it’s hard but fun. Runs great on the Steam Deck.

      That one was recommended to me in my search for a satisfying mobile game. Didn’t look into it much. Does it have mtx?

        No microtransactions, although it does have DLC’s. There are some doors you can’t pass through unless you buy those, which is a little annoying but you always have another option. I do think it’s better played with a controller though since the action can be very fast paced.
