Original thread.

Title kinda says all.

I'll have my own reply later.

Last few days mostly been playing Valheim with my partner. Super fun except yesterday she wandered into a late game area, got killed, and rage quit when she couldn’t get her stuff back.

Few days ago I had her play The Stanley Parable since she somehow missed it a decade ago, finished that in an evening.

Before that we played through Prey (2017), since I had never finished it. Great game. 10/10.

Started playing Strange Horticulture. Mechanically it kinda works like Papers Please except there doesn’t seem to be a harsh timer. I’m not very far in though. Love the vibe.

Still need to finish Spider-Man 2. I dropped off after Christmas but I only have a handful of things to finish to 100% it.

There really isn’t much I see that I’m looking forward to this year. Im hoping Cities Skylines 2 will update enough to be good. I’m interested to see if Star Wars Outlaws is any good, it seems likely it’ll suck though. Hades 2 enters early access but I’ll wait till it finishes.

Star Wars Outlaws

I hope it's good as well, but it's a fool's hope.

Yeah my expectations are on the floor. It’d be nice though.

It'll be fun in like 5 years when you pick it up for free/cheap and drop it when you get bored of the Ubisoft gameplay loop lol

I contend that losing items on death is a bad mechanic and has never been good
