    Subnautica. I’ve still never beaten it.

    I also learned first hand that Space Engineers really really does not work on the steam deck. It’s kind of amazing how broken it is on the thing.

    Playing dredge on the deck.

    The theming is great, and the gameplay loop is satisfying. Creepy as though.

    Runs great on the deck via epic.

    I strangely haven’t been in the mood recently to play anything other than emulated NES/SNES-era games. I’m open to recommedations (yes, I already played CronoTrigger).

      Being the usual suspects:

      Front Mission, if you like tactical RPGs (ie. where you move characters on a grid game map during battles).

    I’m starting to get decent at Mindustry. If I’m not back in a month, send out a search party for me, because I’m probably lost in a tangle of slag refinement pipelines.

    I recently got back into Batman Arkham City. The last time I played it was 2016 or so, and I forgot what it was about. I remember it being really good, but I’m enjoying it even more this time around. They really nailed all the characters spot on (coming from reading the graphic novels and comics)

      I have very strong memories of that game for some reason. I replayed it last year and had a huge wave of nostalgia for some reason, far more than any other games I had played at that time.

      The whole series is great, especially the first two. I kind of want to go back and replay them again now.

    I tried the demo for Planet Crafter and actually really enjoyed that, so I might pick it up when it goes on sale next.

    I also played the demo for Cubic Odyssey. It’s basically Minecraft and No Man’s Sky, but I’m likIng it quite a bit so far. It scratches that Minecraft itch while also letting you play a space game at the same time. I just repaired my shop but I haven’t gone anywhere else yet. I’ll probably get this on sale too.

    I’ve been playing some favourites this week as I just need to take my mind off of life for a bit.

    The Division, I started with 2 but it’s just inferior to the first game. The snowy city just does it for me.

    The Long Dark, I started a stalker run and have been hot with blizzard after blizzard and am almost starving to death now.

    Football Manager 2024, I’ve had this on the second monitor in the mornings while I have a coffee and wake up.

    and then I’m still hoping around all the games I put on my Anbernic handheld. Too many games so nothing sticks for long but it’s fun trying them all!

    Mirrors edge. Started a few weeks ago and been getting a couple of sessions in since. Its quite fun but also very frustrating. The controls are almost there but its just janky enough for me to die stupidly at the same spot over and over if it requires some combination of actions that is difficult. I somehow survived jumping from a subway cart to another without understanding how i actually was supposed to do it properly. And the combat i dont like. But will likely try to play thru it.

    I also just discovered that xenia has a linux build now so i will be exploring some x360 games in the near future to see the state of it.

      I hope you have fun with mirrors edge! I loved it when I played it a couple years ago. The sequel is fun too.

      Good to know about Xenia on Linux. I’m looking into switching away from windows soon, so that’s useful information. I’ll be sure to check out Xenia on Linux when I end up switching.

      Xenia was one of the few programs I kept windows for, good to check it off the list. I’ll definitely be downloading and tinkering with it soon

    Core Keeper with my gf. It‘s the kinda game that just throws you in and lets you figure it out, we both like it a lot. We did a 30 minute cow rescue mission to get that cute thing into our base lol

    I‘m playing Children of Morta and PUBG with a friend of mine. CoM is pretty good but it seems short with lots of goal-less grind at the end since we already rescued 2 of 3 minor gods in our initial session. So just one left plus the big guy? We‘ll see. PUBG we‘re just playing the handful casual games a day to try and sneak some achievements and have fun. Normal matches are way too sweaty.

    I don‘t really have a good solo game right now, I‘m kind of just jumping between games. I‘m about to boot up Eiyuden Chronicle Rising again, which is a good game but it has yet to fully grab me. Who knows if I‘m still on it in 30 minutes.

    I just got a psvr2 and picked up Arizona Sunshine remake. It’s really cool so far except I die so often because I just cannot get the hang of manually reloading the clips. Half the time I just toss the clip on the ground and the other half I toss the gun down. I hope I’d do better if there was ever an irl zombie takeover.
