I just put on an album, The Eminem Show, and I’m curious what everyone else has on. Music, a video, the television, some mystery noise from next door? What’s gracing your ear holes as you read this?
I feel quite the opposite. I started with Rise last year which was really fun. Then I bought World some time later and man, I’m in love with that game to the point that Rise just doesn’t do it for me anymore. Now I see it as too fast paced and with little care for the environments compared to World.
Oh man I’m so ready for this, I can’t wait. I purposefully stopped playing elden ring for months just to experience a fresh run when the dlc comes out. I even have a character ready in NG+ so I can play it all over again and reach the dlc. I’m so damn happy, it’s finally arriving!

Slay the Spire when I want some time off with work/course while I watch videos or podcasts.
CrossCode at night when I’m free. This is my new addiction as I keep thinking about it constantly. Honestly really fell in love with this game almost instantly. Even though the game is like 5 years old, this was my surprise of this year! Shout out to the few CrossCode fans here on Lemmy, we exist!
Elden Ring with the seamless coop mod at night with my friends when they’re available. I’ve already got all the endings with multiple characters but I keep playing because it’s extremely fun with homies, and also because I just want another excuse to keep playing it lmao
CrossCode - this isn’t a jrpg nor a classic style per ser but I’d say it’s heavily inspired by them. I’ve been playing it for a while and it really is a gem of a game. Check it out if it’s your thing.
Other modern games which are a jrpgs that I haven’t played but heard good things are Chained Echoes and Octopath Traveller. Those are akin to retro classic style jrpgs
Dude I had CrossCode on my wishlist for years and forgot about it, until I watched a video praising it and saying to not let indie games like this one die in obscurity when they deserve much more attention.
So I bought it on last Steam sale and fuck, I wholeheartedly agree with that video. I just beat my first dungeon and it’s such a beautiful and fun game - the characters being one of my favorite aspects.
It’s painfully sad how severely underrated CrossCode is. It needs more praise and love so I’m doing my best to raise awareness of it lol.
Wouldn’t be surprised if this one becomes one of my favorites.
I caught myself loads of times scrolling on Reddit while not even paying attention, or while scrolling on Reddit to then close it immediately opening Reddit again to continue scrolling....
Same here. For me I can count how many times I opened Lemmy throughout the day compared to reddit in which sometimes I opened it literally seconds after closing it. Not that I’m complaining nor celebrating it, for me it’s just that.
When I was 15, I went walking up trail with my family in Chimborazo (a really big volcano in Ecuador) with lots of tourists and a guide. The walk is long and its windy as fuck with tiny tiny rocks and sand hitting your face/eyes but man seeing that mountain in front of you is amazing. It was tiring so I sat down to regain my breath while everyone kept moving on. I kept sitting and walking until I had enough and decided to walk down alone back to camp. Of course I told my family that I was heading down.
The thing is, it was real faraway or maybe it was that I couldn’t see that well with all the wind and sand so I felt disoriented, but I kept descending. I was feeling lost. I just saw ground all around me all alone with the wind hitting my ears loudly. I was getting a lil bit desperate but kept walking downwards to the left. Then I thought maybe it’s a bad idea to keep walking to the left, so I went to the right, and a few minutes later I arrived to the camp. I kept thinking to myself what would have happen if just kept walking to the left.
Slay the Spire - damn fucking addicting game, sometimes infuriating and sometimes a dopamine rush, it’s just feels so good when you play your cards right
CrossCode - I’m still at the beginning (just got my first party member) and I fell in love with it almost instantly. The dialogue is funny and the combat is chef’s kiss. Shout out to Lea’s legendary face reactions
Since the minimum and recommended specs for Starfield have come out, I’ve been budgeting to do a big upgrade on my PC with an AMD 6800 xt and a fancy new 1 TB SSD (which is the first game I’ve ever seen that requires an SSD) just so I can run the game in all it’s space epicness....
Sekiro - This was January 2020 so the timing was perfect just before covid hit (in my country). Back then I just had the opportunity to build one so I didn’t think twice cuz I wanted a gaming pc since forever.
I had at the time so many games in mind for years and also in my backlog, so it was incredible to finally build one and play all of them during the lockdowns lmao
I bought CrossCode because I heard great things about it and I’m enjoying it so far. The movement and combat is sooo fun and the main character’s expressions are pure gold
