Whatcha all been playing? I’ve been playing a ton of Mario world ROM hacks, including some kaizo ones. Also started doing my oblivion playthrough again!
Ys 8: Lacrimosa of Dana on PS4. I’m really enjoying although, I think this game is a bit too long for an action RPG.
Modern Ys games, have a really satisfying and extremely fast paced combat system, and this is no exception. Story wise, though, it only gets interesting in the last third of the game.
I’m on the final chapter right now, looking forward finishing the game next week.
I just got into act 3 of Balder’s gate and took a break because I don’t want the game to end. Instead, I have fallen back on my old favorite on the steam deck, Dave the Diver.
The great thing about Baldur’s Gate coming to an end is that there’s no reason you can’t just start it over again with a totally different type of character and play it entirely differently. I’m coming up on finishing the game a second time.
En Garde! Nice indie game, with a combat system simmiliar to sekiro, but very lighthearted presentation. Also started paradise killer. Definitely interesting, but not sure if it’s a game for me
Townscaper. I find it so soothing to play because it has no expectations of me and no people. Just lots of lovely, inoffensive buildings that sometimes take unexpected forms. It’s been fun experimenting with different configurations to see if I can find any blocks I haven’t seen yet.
I’m also chipping away at my koi collection in Zen Koi. Another game that does not expect much of me and has no people in it. The Pro edition on Play Pass doesn’t have cooldowns or microtransactions either, so I can just swim around eating things and breeding new colours of fish.
Suffice to say, there’s a theme in the games I’m enjoying right now: “humans not welcome, just let me relax”.
UFC 5, at least for another few days. I got all of the offline trophies in about a week (my main objective) and learned, once again, that while I can do just fine against a CPU opponent, playing against an allegedly human opponent online, I totally suck.
I’m likely going to switch back to Spider-Man 2 sooner than I expected.
Mostly Cities Skylines 2. The performance is not great, but it’s passable with the settings turned down and the actual city building is really good. Right now I’m working on a big expansion to my city further down the highway, just got the water/power lines run between them so it’s one big happy grid exporting the extra to other cities. Already looking forward to the things I’ll do differently in my second city!
Also playing some Super Mario Wonder on the side, which is fantastic. Great mix of easy fun levels and hard-as-nails secret special levels. Very fun!
I finished Psychonauts for the first time a couple of months ago, and just started Psychonauts 2 last night. Only a couple of hours in, but really enjoying it so far.
Played Planetside 2 this weekend. I never tried it before and at first I didn’t know what I was supposed to do. Then I understood how to play and what to do and I enjoyed it very much. I’m not very good at it, but I play to have fun, not to be competitive.

I’ve been play Theatrhythm Final Bar Line since beating Final Fantasy 16. Next I’m either playing Spider-Man Miles Morales or Stranger of Paradise.
Factorio. Hardly anything is as fun as building my factory while listening to a good podcast.

Oxygen not included. Today my cook Splug decided to take a nap in the toilet:
Then I dug to the asteroid’s molten core and dropped a ton of water in. It filled the whole base with high pressure steam and killed everybody.

Worms for the GBA. A friend got me into WMD but I figured I’d give the older games a try with a handheld emulator I have.
I have a PS Vita and one of the games is available on that so I may give it a try sometime

Forgive Me Father, fantastic fps. Also Pokémon leaf green

Still playing Snowrunner! Just started exploring the second area of Michigan, SO CLOSE to unlocking off-road tires for my fleetstar
