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”).

i finally started playing cyberpunk after a year of owning it. glad to report i only ran into game crashing bugs twice over 80hrs of gameplay. I’ve noticed a bunch (prob 20ish) of minor bugs related to elevators and summoning cars. also some light fortnite when my coworkers are bored
Been playing Honkai: Star Rail and Tears of the Kingdom at the same time like a maniac. I’ll probably burn out on both and wander off.
The fun part is Star Rail almost becomes an idle game, eventually, because you can just set up auto battles to grind resources and set it off to the side to do its thing. Is this real gaming? I dunno, but it has pretty graphics.
Octopath Traveler 2, pretty challenging when getting to the later portion of the game.
I have been playing Tears of the Kingdom, but when my wife has been playing I have been switching in between Serious Sam 4 and the original Commander Keen.
Commander Keen takes a little to get used to the game feel and style, but I am actually enjoying it pretty well. You can feel a lot of what would go into id shooters. Mazelike levels with a series of key cards, but on a 2d platformer instead of a fps.
Oh man, Commander Keen! One of the first games I actually owned.
I’ve been playing a bit of TotK, and also recently pulled out my GB pocket and started playing my old copy of Pokemon Red.
I never owned commander keen until recently. So I would just play that shareware episode back in the day.
I got the shareware version from my cousin, it was all I played for months, got the full version for my birthday!
Tears of the Kingdom, spending hours just making random stuff
I’ve been playing GTA RP, RDR2 RP, and Terraria with Calamity and Thorium mod, although lately I’ve gotten Distracted with Stable Diffusion, so I haven’t been playing much these last few days.
I recently finished Hardspace: Shipbreaker, which I quite enjoyed, even though dissecting the ships felt a bit tedious towards the end. Now I’m playing Warhammer 40k: Boltgun, and it’s amazing if you’re into dakka and bloody gore-explosions.
Tears of the Kingdom as well. I’ve been running around doing shrines and whatnot and not working on quests, though, so I need to put some time into the actual objectives, ha ha!
Mainly Path of Titans dino adventures with friends right now, though I do want to get back into the private investigations in Shadows of Doubt.
Actually been playing Assassin’s Creed 2. Got the Ezio collection on sale and been enjoying revisiting an old classic. I forgot how much fun the legacy AC games were.
Yeah, I do miss those old titles, before “RPG Creed” took over. Hopefully the new title brings the series back to form, emphasising stealth and parkour rather than combat.
Still settling islands and building cities in Anno 1800 for now. Let’s see how long this cycle will last before it gets boring and I switch to something else for a while.
I just tried the demo for Tiny Thor - it’s a retro platformer and it was gooood. The gameplay is fun and the enemies are unique.
It’s releasing soon and I’m looking forward to playing the full version
Going to be playing V Rising tomorrow with some friends. I’ve never played it, but they are excited about some content that dropped recently. I’m looking forward to it!
System Shock! Felt like it’s been coming out forever and then suddenly just dropped. Amazing so far

Is it good to play casually? Very interested, but I hear there is a ton of back-tracking and it is faithful to the original a little too much?
I really enjoy it, but I love these types of games. There is backtracking when you’re obtaining items and unlocking doors and stuff, very similar to Prey. There’s a demo on steam to check out! Faithful to the original but in the right ways imo
Been thinking about picking up System Shock! Never played the originals but I can’t say no to a good immersive sim.
There’s a demo on steam! Idk how long it is but worth checking out
I just bought the BioShock collection for $10 on sale and I’m playing BioShock 1 for the first time. The game is a little outdated but the story so far is really interesting to me, I love the world building.
I can’t wait to hear what you thought about the 3rd game, Infinite. I loathed the 2nd, but 1 and 3 to me are amazing.
My fav of the three is Infinite, very jealous you get to play for the first time!
2 and Infinite are two faces of the same coin. There may be a resemblance, but their fans never face the same direction.
Unfortunately, the Bioshock Remastered games which replaced the originals have broken AI, Splicers that are on fire are supposed to find water to put it out letting you shock them.
