Besides finally spending some time in Divinity: Original Sin 2, I also finally tried Age of Wonders 4. I highly recommend trying both as they're both refreshing and excellent. Also tried out The Ur-Quan Masters, which is a remastered (FREE) version of Star Control II and I'll definitely spend some more time with it.
Finally played Persona 5 Royal. Absurdly good game, better than the hype. Third semester made me feel things like I haven’t felt in a video game since Undertale
Just finished Assassins Creed 2 for the first time in at least 10 years and I’m currently playing Brotherhood. This is also my first time playing through the DLCs
Unfortunately we need to stay in bigger community groups until the level activity grows to a point where a community needs to break into smaller groups for specific games etc.
Alternatively you could make a c/StreetFighter and populate it while you wait for people to slowly come, I’ve been doing that with several lemmy communities, but I can only maintain so many postings per day. That being said, the rate which each of them have grown already is greater than I could have hoped.
You would also need to factor what instance to build it on, whether it is likely to get defederated and if its going to be one which people may check etc. However, if there is no other community yet, you just need to make sure its a simple enough domain to remember, etc. You really only need to post say twice per day.
Thanks for the input! I am really thinking about making one, maybe in the lgbt lemmy, it’s a niche that really works with the new games. Now I only have to learn how to do tgat on here…
Been doing a proper run-through of Everspace 2, it finally came out of a two-year Early Access a few months ago, currently on 20% sale and has a free demo. Really enjoying it, it’s very Freelancer-esque and I’m liking the stop-start animated cutscene style.
I’m playing Robo Quest. It’s a fps rogue lite from a few years ago. The combat reminds me of overwatch and the characters and weapons remind me of Borderlands.
Immortality. FMV game which is closer to an interactive movie than a game. Included in xbox game pass.
It’s a mystery/thriller about an actress who has gone missing and whose films were never released. The gameplay involves scrubbing through clips of recovered movies/behind the scenes/extras and linking related people/objects to uncover more clips and more plot.
The lead actress is effectively playing four roles and she is absolutely incredible. I’ve found all the acting to be great but she is a stand out. I would typically find the idea of ‘watching’ a game more than ‘playing’ it to be a turn off but so far I have found it to be pretty enthralling and a great “in-between” for other games I’m playing.
Really highly recommend! Play with a controller though since the rumble is a hugely helpful part in finding ‘secrets’.
Be sure to check the list of content warnings though because there are some pretty intense scenes/themes
Monster Hunter Rise just released it's final planned update after 2 years. It's PvE, and it still has a really large community so won't be hard to find partners for hunts.
