A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I've been playing RimWorld again after learning two more DLCs came out since I was last addicted. I fucking love Biotech. It adds furries! πŸ˜ƒ

[–] vritrahan@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I'm also on my first biotech play through. Long way to research the genetics stuff but I got a pig man working for me so it's fun.

I've got it all researched, but the storyteller is being an asshole and not giving me any female colonists to actually do any bioengineering (need babies; can't make babies without women). I have a colony full of men that all hate each other. Half of them are bi or gay, too.

But at least I know the growth vats work great because I also set the child age rate to x100 (regular age speed for colonists) so a lot of the recruits are between 5 and 10 and have to be aged to be useful. Age 'em up to 13 and then use bioscultpers to keep them there forever :D

Quake II remaster (?) by Nightdive in co-op with a friend. Itβ€˜s alright. I see it more as a video game history course, everything kinda looks the same so it hasn’t held up too well IMO, but itβ€˜s a good time in co-op. And thank God they built in a navigation system lol

Got my hands on a PS5 pro. Started playing Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection (2015). Never played the original games, always wanted to. It's also funny to think that I'm playing a PS4 title that is a remake of PS3 games on a PS5.

Tried Tetris effect today, last time I played Tetris was on the nds so this is quite the upgrade!

I started playing Darksiders 3 (2018) over the weekend. Never got around to play it on release because my PC couldn't run it back then.

[–] MarcomachtKuchen 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Just in time. There have been teasers hinting at the final entry in the darksieders quartett

[–] domi@lemmy.secnd.me 1 points 2 days ago

Yeah, the announcement made me remember that I never played part 3.

[–] Glitterbomb@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

Haven and Hearth. It's apparently a fairly old MMO, and I think I picked it up after it's mostly dead, but it's still a bit fun. The low population left in the game honestly might be saving me from grief while still learning the game.

It got the visuals, difficulty, and finality of Zomboid, but more of a rust style game play where you're just a naked person with rocks and sticks building huts. I still don't know fully what I'm doing, the goal is still just don't die.

Tooth & Tail. Bite sized R^a^TS

Shadow of the tomb raider (2018). Had to wait to be able to upgrade my computer to play it and after 3 years of owning the game I've finally started it!

[–] SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Been playing FFXII international, been quite enjoying it so far.

[–] datendefekt@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Slogging through FFXIII here. It's super linear and repetitive, but just what I need right now.

[–] SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 days ago

Yeah, I wasn't able to get through xiii, too linear. XII is nice, mostly linear with some bounty hunting stuff to keep it fresh.

Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup.

A Mortician's Tale was a nice relatively short interactive experience about what it is like to work in that occupation and its ups and downs, and an opportunity to reflect a bit on the reality of death.

[–] lilja@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 days ago

I really liked this game. Felt like the perfect length for making one introspective about death.

BioShock Infinite Burial at Sea 1. Not quite hooked yet because ammo is almost too scarce to call it a shooter. But I want to like it.

Also playing Dead Cells, which is great but the higher difficulties are very very hard.

My last week has been filled with Marvels Midnight Suns. XCom meets deck builder meets dating simulator-lite. I’m having a blast, considering none of those genres are my forte

[–] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

I loved Marvels Midnight Suns! Exploring the grounds, finding kitty, then slicing people up with Hunter and Wolverine!

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago

Echoes of the past!

incredibly fun.

I've only been playing a few hours, but I am having a blast.

[–] BeardedBlaze@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Zen Pinball 2 on PS Vita. Got every single table, played few dozen and still got a ton left.

War Thunder Ground Arcade Battles is fun on team voice chat.

[–] Dutczar@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 days ago

Started Trauma Center 2 and 7th Dragon 2020, both sequels to games I played last year. The first one I only played for 10-20 minutes so far though, the latter would probably be unbearable without turbo mode via emulation. Actually, 7th Dragon DS already was, but the story and setting is mildly neat, and I might be hungry for games with more party building. If you fast forward to the dragon/boss fights it's alright.
