it’s very much borrowed from one of the reddit subs i frequent(ed) often, but the idea is to share what we’re playing weekly and hopefully create discussions around those games (or simply have a sort of “check-in”).
Hades! It’s such a fun and addicting game. I am trying to 100% the game, so I have made a couple hundred escape attempts with no escapes as of yet.
I’m hundreds of hours into my Satisfactory factory. Working on bringing my final power plant online this weekend!
Working in the swamp, late at night
Just wouldn’t be a power plant without eerie green
Damn, my factory sucks ass next to this ^^
Humble beginnings my friend, we all started hand crafting iron rods and plates. This factory is my third, and this is about 400 hours in. At this stage you’re at the stage of “I enjoy this, right? I’m doing this for fun, right?”
I played up to the highest unlock, then didn’t finish the last elevator because there was no unlock to get ^^
Still, I never cared about what my factory looked like. Maybe that’s the problem.
There’s no problem at all lol, that’s one of the things I love, there’s no “right” or “wrong” way to play at all. We play because we must produce, the only way to play wrong is if you are not at peak efficiency.
And there’s totally an unlock! A small surprise at the awesome shop!
Tears of the Kingdom, and when I get burnt out, either Persona 5 or Hitman III.
I’ve been playing TotK like it’s my second job since day 1, and I still don’t feel close to maxing out on its content. Breath of the Wild was my favorite game of all time, and somehow Tears of the Kingdom is even better.
Same here.
My 7 year old loves watching the gameplay as well. So when we need a break from this heat wave she tells me she wants to watch zelda. Been a ton of fun with her.So when shes around it’s main quest mostly. I would be ostracized if I did a temple without her.
When it’s just me I work on grinding out shrines or lightroots or armor upgrades usually.
Can’t seem to stop playing factorio, send help.
The factory must expand.

You still on vanilla, or have you started diving into Greg’s mods?
At 1600 hours I’m just a beginner, but this game is so great.
Ugh I know the day I start Factorio is the day my life as I know it ends… not sure if I’m dreading it or looking forward to it
I just got my Steam Deck and have loved playing through BoTW via CEMU with mods (playing as Linkle!)
Right now I am trying to get modded Skyrim going on my 64gb Steam Deck, since I haven’t played before and love fantasy settings!
I still remember begging my parents to buy me Skyrim for the Xbox 360 during the launch of the game! That was almost 12 years ago! Oh my! I also remember watching this guy called Utorak and having his own rendition of the trailer.
Install a 1TB SSD in there, and fill it with mods. It’s pretty easy to upgrade yourself.
Currently playing Boltgun. Getting close to finishing the 2nd episode.
How do you like it? The game looks awesome from what I’ve seen.
Doom 2016 on the steam deck. Trying to learn how to aim with the trackpad and gyro after years of kb+m. Seems to be going okay so far.
The gyro can be a little difficult to get used to at first. In my opinion it is best used for fine adjustments. So you’d use the trackpad or joystick for the big adjustments, then fine tune with the gyro.
This is what I’ve learned as well but with the gyro feature of the switch
This is what I’ve read in most places, I find using the gyro a little harder than getting used to the trackpad (the fine adjustment with gyro takes a while for me and is a little awkward while the big trackpad movements are fine) but hopefully it is just a matter of practice.
Wait until you get to Doom Eternal. Mental game.
Yeah, I sadly had to turn down the difficulty to get accustomed to the trackpad. I was getting killed all the time without it, hopefully things get better!
Doom 2016 and Doom Eternal here as well, also on the deck. First time through, slow going. When I get frustrated with one I switch to the other.
Diablo 4, enjoying it so far but their MTX shop is a joke. You want 25€ for a basic looking set of armor? I don’t think so.
Season 2 of Limbus Company also just launched, finally beat 3-22 right before the servers went down. Really loving that game, the characters quickly grew on me. I play a few gacha’s (Arknights, GBF, GI) but Limbus is the only one I’d recommend to friends. You can pretty much farm every identity without spending a dime and FOMO is pretty low. Helps that Project Moon is an Indie dev I guess.
I am deep into the System Shock remake, and I am absolutely loving it.
Same as every week, pinkie. Slay the Spire… I need to branch out.
But STS is so good!
once my finals are done i’m taking a one and a half hour walk to the nearest videos game store and getting TOTK and that’ll probably be me sorted for the rest of the month at least
Death Stranding. Was sceptic for a long time, if the concept of the game is for me and motivating enough to keep me playing. Picked it up during a sale recently and really got hooked. With not much time to game it is nice to deliver a few packages and be able to quit again. Story is so cryptic that it feels like it does not matter if you forget something after a week long break and the atmosphere of the game feels really nice.
I had the same experience. The way people described it I put it off for a long time, but when I finally started I was also hooked. Put like >90 hours on my first playthrough, which is pretty unusual for me.
Yeah, exactly. I am at about 35 h into the game and so far I do not feel any kind of burnout coming. It is so satisfying to drive along your own roads and unlocking new blueprints from satisfied costumers. Hope this keeps going.
Finally playing Jedi Fallen Order so I can get around to Jedi Survivor, gives time for the latter to get its shit together as well.
Mostly TotK (will probably be playing this for a long time) and Honkai Star Rail. Looking forward to playing FFXVI and SF6, but I’m in no hurry to buy them.
I’ve been playing a bunch of MTG Arena and Tears of the Kingdom lately, and sometimes I hop onto Runescape. Maybe I should finally get around to using the gold I’ve been saving up to buy a bond
