This game was memed so much that going in, I had surprisingly little knowledge of what actual experience I should expect, so here are some of my spoiler-free notes. These by no means cover everything relevant to know about the game in advance, just some things that jumped out at me....

From the notoriously flat structure of Valve to the support of free software to the extremely laissez faire way of running steam to the main Dota tournament being named “The International”… Is Gabe Newell a card carrying Anarchist?

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”).

Okay so I have never been into the Souls games. The whole “brutally difficult” thing never appealed to me, and watching my friends play was enough to turn me off....

I have the following questions about AMD:...

I used to love getting lost in virtual worlds. My favorite games were the ones that I could explore for hours: New Vegas, Skyrim, Hollow Knight, Breath of the Wild, Outer Wilds, Outer Worlds, KOTOR, The Witcher 3, Cyberpunk 2077, (okay you get the idea). A game felt like a bargain if my attention span was the only the only thing...

Anyone here play it, or variants of it? Or a fan of roguelikes in general?

Maybe it’s that first PUBG victory, or becoming a Grand Champion on Rocket League. Maybe it’s the time you got passed that awfully difficult level, or the time you actually got around to finishing your backlog....

I’ll go first. Deranged Spiderman with guns

For example veloren...

I am playing Pokemon Violet at the moment and it is a total bore. I have played the game so many times and I just want to run around catch Pokemon and battle....

I’m working my way through EO1 with a LTM/AA party. Just snuck past the wyren in the 2nd stratum. I’ve played these games before when they first came out, but really enjoying them more now....

So amongst other things I’m on a high dose of valium right now, and things are difficult. Gosh darn it even dressing is an effort (who has two thumbs, didn’t get out of bed/her nightie this morning? And maybe will live in bed forever now? This girl)....

The Darktide soundtrack is absurdly good. I really hope Jesper Kyd gets the chance to create more music for the game in the future....

What is everyone's recommendations for great Cyberpunk games?...

yes, i know, Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice and horizon zero dawn exist, and id rather i dont know them, so what else you got? EDIT: Please stop with celeste, i get it, celeste is a thing, yall dont need to keep repeating that one

I've recently found that big (mostly open world) games tend to overwhelm or even intimidate me. I'm a big fan of the Rockstar games and absolutely adored Breath of the Wild, but my playthrough of Tears of the Kingdom has been a bit rocky from the get-go....

So, hear me out....

so ive been playing d4 for a while now and though I like it in general, its only a poor excuse of what PoE offers....

What game mechanics do you enjoy or that surprised you when playing a game? I recently started playing Tunic and I love building out the “manual” for the game and getting hints on how to play.

AAA games are just getting stale for me and I’m looking to mix it up a bit. I really don’t have a specific genre I gravitate toward or steer away from. I like trying new stuff and I’m happy to consider anything you enjoy playing!

I was banned on the Diablo Gaming forum for the following post: [Title: Rod Fergusson ousted as Diablo 4 GM.][Text: Bye Rod, wouldn’t that be nice? Having a GM that doesn’t make weird creepy malignant tunnel jokes and actually can speak to the game?]...

Just came across this site and wondering if it’s legit

Any of you running D4 in Linux through Lutris?...
