Purchased both fallout 4 and Subnautica. Gotta say that Subnautica is a freaking gem.
I want to play subnautica with a heart monitor just to see how bad my thalassophobia is lol
Lol that would make some good content.
Full noise canceling headphones + complete absence of light (block windows and door with black trashbags) + thalasssophobia.
Subnautica is a really fun game, atmosphere wise. Even if I don't really vibe with the whole "corporate space" stuff it has in the background. Good luck with survival!
Im pretty sure its making fun of that setting. Like when you first pick up Diamonds, there is a recording that says that everything you pick up is owned by the company so you would be indebted if you lose the stuff lol.

Got back into SMT: Nocturne this week and the Fallout hype is dragging me back to the Commonwealth so that's what I've been playing recently aside from my regular daily rotation of Genshin, Star Rail, and Nikke, lol.
I'm really excited for Frostpunk 2, I've been anticipating that since like 2021. The gameplay seems to be more like Cities: Skylines this time around, with some other elements mixed in. I so can't wait.

Question(s) of the week:
What games coming out in 2024 are you most anticipating?
Bro the notification has been stuck for two days I can't use the ☑️ button to get rid of it, I think it's the size that made the lemmy notification go bad 😵💫
Edit : Ok so replying made it disappear, let's call it a workaround 🤣

Dang, Jerboa does not handle cross-post well. Anyways.
I've been playing the hell outta Minecraft with a few friends, just started our own server and I've been using purpur with a few plugins to make it more fun.
Honestly I don't even know my favorite genre anymore. Either hack and slash or fps but I haven't played either in a while.
Not necessarily a game but a mod pack. Skyrim ultima looks so fun and 1.0 came out this year. I just need a PC that can handle it

I just finished purrgatory yesterday! It's a really cute visual novel about befriending weirdos and going to heaven. Getting the best ending took me the entire afternoon but it was worth it. Highly recommend if it looks interesting to you (it's free and playable in your browser (but maybe not on mobile))

Playing GTA IV as my main title at the moment. Really appreciate how down to earth it is in comparison to the next game.
Other than that I'm also playing Orna on my phone when I'm out for a walk. GPS game based on classic RPG mechanics of grinding out monsters n' shit. Petty good time.
Play recently? Slay the Spire. That game's actually really popular in the PRC so I did a run in simplified Chinese to test my knowledge of the game.
Favorite genre? Action Adventure. Stuff like Zelda
Anticipated games in 2024? Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door.
So basically Zelda-likes, right?

What video games have you played recently?
Last time I think I said I was playing Lies of P, Elden Ring, Sekiro, Hollow Knight and Dark Souls III. Out of these I have finished Lies of P and started NG+, my plan is to get all achievements, but I haven't played in a week, I hope to get back to it soon. For the others same thing, but more like 2 weeks without playing.
Other than that I got the platinum in Die in the Dungeon: Origins. Also, I started a new Bloodborne run and it's the second time I actually play for real, I basically finished everything in the main game but the final boss. Right now I'm doing the DLC for the first time since on my first run, 4 years ago, I didn't do it because I heard it was hard and waited until the end to do it, found out the worst way that killing the last boss throws you into NG+ automatically like DS1.
I'm also giving Chalice Dungeons a proper chance this time, since on my first playthrough I didn't care about them. I gotta say, they are fun, albeit a bit repetitive, and the worst part is how separate it is from the rest of the game. The way Elden Ring tackled this is infinitely better by having it integrated into the world, it feels like just a detour for exploration instead of a chore like in BB.
Unfortunately I'm dumb and thought there was 6 depths instead of 5 and ended overleveling because of that, doesn't help that the dungeons give you a shit ton of echoes, making you think that you need to keep leveling up. Right now I'm Blood Level 112 still on NG and while Dungeons get tough sometimes, the DLC is challenging, but the bosses are too easy at this level, I just beat Lady Maria first try and felt disappointed because of it. :(
I'll have to play again to get the last ending for the platinum, so I'll probably just stop leveling up and do NG+ on this level and see how hard the DLC is supposed to be since I should be around a good level already for doing it there.
What games coming out in 2024 are you most anticipating? Or games that are coming out sometime in the future?
Cuban indie game, Saviorless, that launched recently looks interesting, I want to give it a try sometime in the future. Other than that, Hades II, No Rest for the Wicked and Elden Ring's DLC.

A couple of recent games I really enjoyed are Spiritfall and Viewfinder. Spiritfall is like dead cells meets super smash bros, and Viewfinder is similar to Portal in feel. Haven't really been keeping up with new games coming out, mostly focusing on my backlog. :)
Same.
I’ve been playing Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey and Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer lately. I’ve got a long commute to work, so the DS has become my best friend when I don’t feel like reading. I also started another playthrough of Diddy Kong Racing, initially just to test homebrew N64 emulation on my Switch. It actually runs well! It also plays mostly nicely with widescreen hacks, only downside is I have to run the game at base N64 resolution to avoid slowdown.
My favorite genre is probably RPGs? But I tend to get really into one or two genres at a time and then switch to something else after a bit. Recently it’s been roguelikes and, briefly, pinball. Before that I was playing a lot of bullet hell games. I think more and more I’m just interested in games that I don’t have to commit to for more than one play session.

I don’t know if this counts but I’m very excited for the Majora’s Mask PC port to release! I’ve been checking their Discord server every day hoping to see news. Otherwise, Demonschool seems pretty interesting, and Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance I suppose? I thought the original release of that was only alright, but hopefully the new route will be something I’m into.
Sorry if this is against the rules, but I figured this was an appropriate comment to plug !roguelikes@lemmygrad.ml. I opened it last night, but I don’t actually know what to post there lol. I made it with traditional roguelikes in mind, but there’s not any strict rules yet, so if you’ve got opinions on what should be allowed or whatever feel free to chime in.

I'm definitely still playing Dyson Sphere Program. I'm building my first space ball around an O-type and if my calculations are correct, it's gonna be pushing 861 GW with just the one shell. I'm considering adding as many as the game allows to see what I end with. My initial goal was to get on the leaderboard for this seed, I'm there. Now my goal is to get the 1 TW achievement. After that I'm considering going for 1st place on the leader board.
I'm still bottlenecking on science too. My theoretical max is 2500/min but I'm only getting around 1800 under best conditions. But I'm actually focusing on a new rocket factory I put in my new sphere system anyway. Research can just trickle in for now.
I'm gon a plop down more mining in my sphere system and hope I can keep my silicone and titanium topped off since that is where it's chugging right now.
Other than that, I finished Prodeus and am working to collect all the collectible things for new guns. It's a lot of fun if you like restro shooters. It doesn't overstay it's welcome too much.
I'm working on getting into Ultra Overkill currently too. I'm not sure move tech really works with boomer shooters but it's still mindless fun. Also chainsaw legs.

I have been replaying Syrian Warfare since I got it in January and I played literally nothing else
Did not know that game existed, since steam reviews seem to say it's russian propaganda it's probably really good.
It's unironically very good (except for AI movement) and yes it's Russian propaganda and yes it is based.
I've been giving Endless Space 2 another try. Did a Horatio win, now I'm doing a Riftborn playthrough. I feel this game is a bit barebones. I want to like it, but after 1 or 2 playthroughs, I feel bored and need to move on. The orchestral music is great though.
I was thinking of trying Stellaris again, haven't touched it in years. The 2.0 update was a deal breaker for me.

Catgirl sorcerer game (ffxiv)
Makes sense.
Learning to drift in Mario Kart 8 200cc. I like platformers, so been switching to Mario World 2 when too many 12th places finishes in MK gets me down.
Still waiting for Odyssey 2. Yea nintendo is evil but even the bad marios are better than most of the best AAA

I just picked up The Forgotten City on a whim and it was very enjoyable!
My favorite genres are horror and simulation.
One game I'm looking forward to is the next Dragon Age? I know it's gonna be a long while...

I'm looking forward to Stellar Blade next week and I think I'm like ~80% done with FF7 Rebirth so I should be finished by then. I still need to finish Dragon's Dogma 2 and try the FF16 DLC that just recently came out as well... I wish there were more hours in the day.
Other than that the main thing I'm looking forward to is the "totally not E3" announcement shows this summer to see what's coming out later this year.
Is FF16 worth it? Story-wise it didn’t seem like they learned their lesson (just going by the pre-release summary) so I checked out eaaaarly.
I really enjoyed it. The best parts of the game are the characters and the spectacle of fighting the different eikons (summons). It's not really much of an RPG though, more like an action adventure game. The combat is alright albeit pretty button-mashy (but I'm an old cranky boomer who prefers turn-based FF games so ymmv).
As for the story, I know it's kinda polarizing among fans but I thought it was pretty good. It was more coherent than 15, at least. IMO the main draw is the eikon fights, some of which actually made my jaw drop. It feels like they took inspiration from games like Asura's Wrath, if you've ever played that.
I saw a friend play it and it looked like a very generic medieval RPG. He said the latter half was bad iirc
