Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of November 5th
Whatcha all been playing? I’ve been playing a ton of Mario world ROM hacks, including some kaizo ones. Also started doing my oblivion playthrough again!
Apex Legends. Picked it up again this week after months of playing other games. I’m having loads of fun with Rampart, but keep finishing third or second.
I finished Psychonauts for the first time a couple of months ago, and just started Psychonauts 2 last night. Only a couple of hours in, but really enjoying it so far.
Mostly Cities Skylines 2. The performance is not great, but it’s passable with the settings turned down and the actual city building is really good. Right now I’m working on a big expansion to my city further down the highway, just got the water/power lines run between them so it’s one big happy grid exporting the extra to other cities. Already looking forward to the things I’ll do differently in my second city!
Also playing some Super Mario Wonder on the side, which is fantastic. Great mix of easy fun levels and hard-as-nails secret special levels. Very fun!
Played Planetside 2 this weekend. I never tried it before and at first I didn’t know what I was supposed to do. Then I understood how to play and what to do and I enjoyed it very much. I’m not very good at it, but I play to have fun, not to be competitive.
Finally reached trails of cold steel II. Been playing every game accessible to me from the series by order of release. I think this is the halfway mark.
Just started playing Space Engineers on Steam. That feeling of finally making a ship that can get into space with enough fuel to get to the next planet couldn’t be better.
I’m still making my way through Tears of the Kingdom. Just finished the water temple. I spent so much time aimlessly wandering so I’ve decided to push on and finish out some quests.
I also started Soul Hackers 2 and I love Ringo and her personality already.
I sprained my foot and had to stay in this weekend, so I got back to TOTK for the first time in like a month. I’m about 25hrs in and had a slightly different start? I did the Water Temple basically first, THEN got sidetracked, wandered around doing shrines and side quests.
Oh man, I would have really struggled with that boss at the water temple if it wasn’t for the high powered swords and bows I had from my wandering. I just couldn’t keep up with them haha
UFC 5, at least for another few days. I got all of the offline trophies in about a week (my main objective) and learned, once again, that while I can do just fine against a CPU opponent, playing against an allegedly human opponent online, I totally suck.
I’m likely going to switch back to Spider-Man 2 sooner than I expected.
Mad Max - Played for a couple days this week, taking down camps and gathering scrap, and I think I got it out of my system. For now. Metro: Last Light - Finally got around to finishing the playthrough that I started a few weeks ago, plus ran through all the DLCs. I had a lot of fun with them, except for Heavy Squad and The Tower. Haven't quite got the hang of those two yet. The Developer pack was pretty cool with the 'museum' and shooting range/arena. I liked the little challenges. Diablo 3: Season 29 - Working on the conquests for this season. Completing one will finish the Destroyer chapter for me, but it's taking a little time.
