    Nearing the end of Lies of P… It exceeded my expectations and I’m very satisfied :D I’m even considering buying a DLC for a game I’m just “renting out!” Aaaaaahh I’m hooked, I need more!

      I played a little bit of it at launch but never bought it, I’ve been tempted to though every time it goes on sale. Soulslike is my favourite genre so I know I’d love it, I just haven’t gotten around to it yet. I think it’s free on PlayStation right now so I might play it there instead of pc.

    Monument Valley is/was free on Epic. It’s a nice little puzzler. I like it, enough to beat the main game and start on the DLC (included). Lightweight, cute, not too many mechanics. It’s not nearly as visually impressive or as challenging as my favorite space bending game, Manifold Garden, though.

    Palia had an update recently that added ranching and possibly better home building so I’ve been doing that with twin.

    Haven’t tried the home building yet cause I need to prepare for it. It’s extensive!

      Yeah I’ve been playing Silksong too. Bouncing between that at a replay of Assassin’s Creed Origins whenever I fail on a platforming section too many times.

    Picked up the original Hollow Knight on sale a little while back. With the all the buzz around Silksong I finally booted it up, having a blast so far!

      Enjoy! It’s a great game. I’ve been cheating on this community and playing Silksong, it’s a great sequel. It’s one of the rare times I’d recommend buying a game when it’s still new. But definitely play Hollow Knight first, it’s such a great game.

      Typically this community is for games that are more than a year old (i.e. you were patient to buy it) but I think Silksong is an exception and I’ll allow it in this community. I’m also playing it so I can’t judge too hard.

    Heard a song from Wuthering Waves, and it caught me be surprise with how good it was, so I figured I’d give the game a try.

    It feels a lot like Genshin Impact, but the world and story feel better, is not Mihoyo, and the voice acting includes the main character. For a F2P experience, it’s been fun going through the initial story. To its detriment, however, there’s three different gacha currencies. Definitely not worth bothering with beyond freebie pulls. Overall, I’d recommend it, but only the free stuff.

    When POE2 came out, I played it for a couple hours, hated it, and went back to Diablo 4. I saw it at PAX a week ago and thought I’d give it a try again since I quit D4 and was jonesing for that fix. It’s doing pretty well so far. I’m in Act 3.

      I’ve had this game for less than a week and I’ve Jack Sparrow’ed my way into an A class freighter and i found a planet with glow orbs laying on the ground by the dozen. So i’ve got this crazy freighter and millions in credits but hardly any raw resources to build or upgrade anything.

    Persona 5 Royale on Steam Deck. JRPGs and handhelds are a match made in heaven. My only complaint is every time I think that I’ve escaped the tutorial, there’s more tutorial lol.

    Still making my way through Skies of Arcadia Legends. Just arrived at Yafutoma but the game is such a slog sometimes with the random encounters :(

    Also chilled out and played a little bit of Beat Hazard.

      Skies can certainly be slow. Though if you feel like grinding levels you can do that after yafutoma and pretty much one turn the normal fights and makes the ship battles much smoother.

        I’ve actually not skipped many battles so lvl wise it’s all good. I remember playing on the Dreamcast originally and when a battle was about to trigger the console would make a noise so I would pause the game to try an skip it.

          Ah. Then you’re well versed already. I have played through it enough times at this point that I actively and purposefully grind the materials I need well ahead of time, though I don’t think I’ve ever 100%'d the game. I think the worst was getting the death prevention accessories for my group so I could take on the angel of death without getting one shot. But I have spent an exorbitant amount of time leveling off loopers near their landmark.
