Have you been spending hours trying to pass a level? Or maybe you are completely addicted to a newly bought game. Do you have a question about a game or would like to share something else? In the Weekly Discussion Thread, you can do it all!
Please don’t forget to use the spoiler tag as soon as you start talking about a storyline.
I got steel panthers (winspww2 to be specific) working on my steam deck, updated to the newest camp workshop version too.
The low resolution DOS style graphics actually are a natural fit for the steamdeck’s lower resolution screen lol.
I am having a lot of fun, there are many tactical war games that have come out since steel panthers 2’s original release that are technically superior in every single way but I am not sure they are better. Artillery is terrifying in this game and scouting is filled with tension.
I’ve been playing the original Call Of Duty games, starting at the first one. I beat it and United Offensive. I’m working on the second game.
It’s all in service of a write up about the core identity and the design philosophy of the games. How the original games were fresh for their time, and how COD4 used a lot of the sensibilities of the WW2 games that preceded it. There’s a lot to mine and digest in the old games, COD4, and Modern Warfare 2 as a contrast and turning point. I just don’t know if people care enough to follow it.
I played 72 hours of Stardew Valley 3 years ago and I got back to realize…that I know nothing!
What is this chest? What is this thing standing beside my scarecrow?! What are all these machines doing?!? What am I planting?!?! Who is my boyfriend?!?!? Why is he my boyfriend?!?!? In short, a lot of things happened and I have amnesia now. And I thought that only happened in Rune Factory.
Anyways, I’m playing it again. But now, dived face-first into modding it. And lo and behold! 133+ hours in, and I’m still not in the second season of the game cause I spent most of my time getting mods and testing them Skyrim modding session flashbacks All my men are yandere now and that wizard is now a hot ikemen(who I can marry in the future). I can’t wait to play!
Talos Principle. The VR version of the first game, haven’t gotten around to the second game yet. I love the puzzles (when I don’t struggle with timing running past mines), and it’s hilarious that the philosophical test to make a Milton admin profile showed me how utterly unprepared I am for philosophical debate, and how weirdly contradictory my viewpoints might be. Mind you, the only philosophy class I’ve taken in my life was an ethics class.
TL;DR Talos Principle is amazing so far, even though it makes me want to slink off back to college and sheepishly register for a philosophy class.
Been playing the original ni no kuni as part of my Ghibli playlist.
The game shows its age right from the get go, though it’s still adorable and fairly charming. 5 hrs in and my only complaint is that jumping is somehow an unlockable, but yeah guess it’s just me.
Steam input support is a pleasant surprise. And I ran into a steam bug because of that(¯_(ツ)_/¯).
Baldur’s Gate consumed a bunch of my time, but I’ve had on hold for a bit. Got obsessed with Armored Core 6 which has been a ton of fun. Bit biased though, played AC series growing up, big Fromsoft fan in general.
Most recently been hitting that Mario World Wonder on switch for quick casual time kill, then Predecessor on PC for scratching competitive PVP itch. Got so tense playing it the other day I managed to tweak a muscle somehow 😂
