What are you playing right now?

[Exceptionally Exceptional]

Brutal Legend. This game unironically rocks. Good art direction, fun enough gameplay, stellar selection of metal to listen to, and the lore and aesthetics behind the world is pretty fucking cool.

I picked up Nier: Automata and Stellaris on a Steam sale recently, and I'm loving the shit out of both of them. Stellaris is scratching my strategy itch really nicely, and Nier is just goddamn fantastic.

Hades got me hooked, "beat" the game for the first time over the weekend after about 15 escape attempts. Its very good and I do actually really like the writing, talking to the characters in between runs is a good way to cooldown.

 

[Übertroon]

Been playing Ace Combat 7 after having seen a parody video on it

Why did no one tell me about how fucking stellar this is?

 

[Never Scored]

Super Mario 3D Land. I picked up one of them New 2DS XLs at Wal-Mart because I always kind of wanted one and figure it's only a matter of time before they spike in price on eBay now that they're discontinued. I soft modded it and loaded it with about 30 games.

 

[BOONES]

Resident Evil Revalations 2, got the two dlcs left to do, play some raid mode after.

 

[dodain]

Gonna give Genshin Impact a shot in a few minutes.

Paradox having a big sale recently got me back into Stellaris. Picked up the MegaCorp and Apocalypse DLCs. Also tried to *ahem* "acquire" a copy of Planet Zoo but couldn't get it to work so scraped it and went back to playing an hour or so of SimSafari, just for the nostalgia.

I got Kenshi to run in Linux and I have no idea what's going on. I like weird, open-world games like this though. I've also been getting back into rimworld after a longer break. I tried playing the new Aurora4X ("the dwarf fortress of 4x games") but I basically don't know what's going on there either. Lots of new stuff to figure out! I was also thinking about getting Factorio but it honestly looks like a game that might destroy me.

Im trying to get thrawns revenge to work

I got Kenshi to run in Linux and I have no idea what's going on.

The typical Kenshi experience for new players is figuring out what the fuck you are doing and going with it only to suffer a coma and dying because you caught the attention of a bunch of bandits. I just hire and find people to join my faction to deal with bandits, even if it just involves bumrushing them with many inexperienced fighters with sticks and than find a location to build my town.

I recommend if you haven't already to download the 256 Recruitables mod. Soon you will need people to harvest, defend and make stuff in your town once you settled and found a good spot. The current limit isn't favourable towards running places.

Also word of advice. Avoid these fuckers. I settled in the acid rain forest and it was a nightmare defending my people and base from these fuckers. It was worth it though as I got tons of Iron, Copper and Stone resources and plus the Beak Things also target Looters and Bandits so they act as an extra line of defence.

 

[Stasi]

Playing Professor Layton and the Curious Village and slowly coming to the the terrifying realisation that I am perhaps too stupid for this children's game.

 

[Dreamer]

Hades (battle out of hell) got his 1.0 update a week ago so ive been playing that. The game is a 11/10 easily, made me kinda like rougelikes back when it released, and now is probably the single best rougelike around.
Every run is slightly different, the game is very skillbased but its easy to pick up, it has really elegant systems that push you to experiment with different builds and setups, it also coaxes you into doing harder challenges. Most of all it eliminates the feeling of wasting time because of how it structures its story. Again, real nice i highly recommend it.

Mafia Definitive Edition, I’m a sucker for mobster stories so it’s right up my alley.

 

[ducktales4gameboy]

Mostly Noita. It's an abusive love/hate relationship. I like the core gameplay but hate the fact that there are three powerful upgrades that massively enchance survivability, but collecting each of them requires several minutes of walking back and forth with no other interaction. Fuck this in a permadeath game where one unlucky enemy spawn can kill you. Going to look into modding it when 1.0 comes out to allow you to teleport between locations where you've collected orbs of true knowledge.

Also, hades high-heat runs. Whee. Really wish they'd just give you all the previous rewards for finishing a heat higher than whatever your target goal is since some of the penalties change the game so little there's no reason to really adapt strategy between them.

 

[Allakazam223]

Ghost Recon: Wildlands. Got the base bersion for $10, been working my way through it. AI is terrible, but the gunsmith and gameplay are rock solid.

 

[SeniorTommas]

Now I'm trying to get past Dark Souls 3. It seems to me that this game is stronger than me хD

 

[Cod of War]

DOOM Eternal, turned off aim assist (which considering I'm using a controller I probably shouldn't have done) and am playing on Nightmare. I died over 10 times and I only got to the second arachnotron. Yet I don't consider it bullshit.

 

[Santiagothrumachifacku]

Minecraft, specifically the Kiwi Farms anarchy server.

 

[Takayuki Yagami]

Gonna give Genshin Impact a shot in a few minutes.

How is it and do you know if the ps4 version needs ps+? I don’t like games with kernal anti-cheat on my PC.
