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/

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.

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

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!

MHW Iceborne is fun

Diablo Immortal on mobile is shit

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

Clocked in around 45 hours in Cyberpunk 2077 and I think I might reach an ending in another 5 hours. I had good expectations for this game and this game is just way higher than my expectations.

Love the world building, the lore they are trying to build on side, references to Cyberpunk Edgerunners sometimes.

new rimworld DLC came out and that has taken up all my time. I've got to admit I had a few doubts about this one compared to the others, but sure enough they did it again and made an absolute banger of an expansion and now I have to sink another couple hundred hours...

I'm getting super close to finishing cyberpunk 2077. I said that last week when I was at like 80 or so hours. But uhh 100 hours in now and I swear I'm really close this time lol.

I really wish they hadn't released the game so early and hadn't released so much advertising hype about the game. If the game released in a functional state I think it would have had the complete opposite reception.

If they were to have released the game this January or something and only advertised what is actually in the game, people would likely be praising it left and right. I thought the writing and quest design was a breath of fresh air. I loved how the game gave you agency to make your own decisions and made you think about the implications of all of your actions. Even if many of the decisions didn't directly matter in the grand scheme of things, it allowed you to roleplay and at least feel like you were staying true to how your character would react in different situations.

I liked how there were so many twists and turns during the quests. Overall it felt like I was playing a completely different game compared to the couple hours I had tried at launch.

Edit: side note, Outer wilds is so good. Give it 5 years and maybe you'll forget some of it lol!

My first playthrough clocked in around 200 hours. Now, I still do almost everything but it's faster. Only 150 hours now... About to wrap up playthrough number 5. And I'll probably be coming back in a year for 6.

Can't get into outer wilds though. Feel like I'm 50-60% through the game and I have no idea when or how to go where I think I need to. Took a break to play CP2077 run #4 and look where that got me

Cyberpunk 2077 (Pyramid Song mission)

Exactly my thoughts after my actions left Judy leave Night city. Should not have killed Maiko. Made me wonder whether could I have saved Takamura too.

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.

The saddest moment of every outer wilds fan is the realization it cannot be played again :'(

Thymos ,

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

TimewornTraveler ,

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

Thymos ,

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.

Blackmist ,

Immortals Fenyx Rising.

Feels a lot like Ubisoft still don't understand the appeal of BotW vs their usual icon vomit on a map, but the gameplay and traversal are decent.

Oxygen Not Included.
I really like this game eventhough I'll probably never beat it.
