    Almost everyone on Lemmy are huge nerds (me included) and are too busy playing Factorio to post replies to your question. THE FACTORY MUST GROW

    Can’t stop playing Balatro since picking it up. There’s so many achievements to do. Even finished Jokerless challenge, took about month.

    Otherwise Factorio, of course.

      I like chess, but I can’t think that fast. At that speed, I can only do [email protected] : push pawns, fork things with knights, always take en passant, and try not to blunder away the queen.

    AC Valhalla. I’ve recently finished odyssey and I wanted to play another “turn off the brain checklist open world game”

    It’s very rough around the edges (bugs, clipping, clunky movement) and it got me frustrated time and time again, but the thing I’m disliking the most are the frequent and mandatory raids. If I wanted a full fledged action game I’d be playing wukong or some shit.

    Enabling insta-kill assassination from the accessibility options is what’s been saving the game for me.

    I’m also considering about lowering the difficulty. The second hardest one is making the enemies unreasonably tanky, which does not bode well with the shittiest healing system I have ever seen in a videogame.

    Just got into Metaphor ReFantazio! Just reached the first major dungeon and so far I am very impressed. Quite a lot of great QOL stuff over the Persona series, and it has a very well written story with a very unique vibe so far.

    I personally think I still prefer the vibe of Persona over Metaphor, but this is seriously a really cool game. I highly recommend you try out the Prologue demo even if you’ve never played Persona before or don’t care for JRPGs, because this is something truly different and I think there’s still a chance you might like it. The demo is super meaty too since it’s literally just the first four hours or so of the game.

      I’ve also been playing with my buds WEBFISHING which is basically an Animal Crossing esc chill fishing game with lots of neat stuff to do. It’s really fun to play just to hang out with your friends and chat.

      If you want something more intense as well, STRAFTAT just released yesterday and it’s fun as hell. It’s basically a Free to Play (Not P2W) 1v1 arena shooter that’s really hectic. It’s got a really strange aesthetic that I really like and it’s quite fun for a free little game. And if you end up liking it, you can throw the devs a bone and buy a $5 DLC that adds more maps, weapons, and cosmetics. They even made it so only the host has to buy the DLC and anyone who connects gets to play on those maps with those weapons for free. Really neat little game and really fun with a buddy.

    Someone on here posted a glowing review of Fields of Mistria. I downloaded the game and I can’t stop playing it!

    It’s that perfect cozy farm Sim game, mimicking the best parts of Stardew Valley and minimizing the worst parts. I cannot wait for the full release, and I’m so glad I happened upon that review!

    Puzzling Places has been an unexpected joy after I got it in a bundle with Tetris Effect.

      Same! I finally “beat” satisfactory by delivering all the project parts. In early access I unlocked all milestones but never delivered the final project part.

      Starting space age, only got up to automating green science, working on military science now. Probably won’t be able to play much this week though.

    Just started Baldur’s Gate 3. Never played a CRPG before (does Disco Elysium count?) so it has been quite the learning curve for combat. Pretty stuck in the Underdark, it seems. Looks like I’ll have to help out a slavetrader Gekh in order to proceed because I don’t think I can defeat him and his buddies…

      I hope that you’re having so much fun with BG3, after I finished it’s definitely one of my favorites. The underdark is tough, I wish you good luck.

        I’ll add another one: get to them from the miconids village, do not engage them from the lower ground by the lake.

        Once you’re done that, destroy the stairs first and push them down afterwards. You won’t believe how easy this fight gets.

        Or you know, you could always lower the difficulty. No shame in doing so
