What have we all been playing recently?

I don't know if anyone else plays Seedship, but a new update has come out that adds more interactions with non-human species and I'm really happy about that.

 

I haven't played in ages, but might to check out whatever is new. I recall it felt a bit samey after a while.

 

Cultist Simulator. I'm on my second or third run so far, and mostly just...derping around, learning things. Which is how you're supposed to do, anyways.

 

Is this like Goat Simulator but with cults?

 

Not really. It's by one of the people who works on Fallen London, and it's basically slice-of-life horror? Your character starts feeling their way into the occult, and can start up a cult and pick a goal to dedicate themselves to, with the end-goal (or an end-goal, at least) of ascending to become immortal or a demi-god!

The slice-of-life comes in where your character is having to balance doing this while still working a job to bring in money (with a couple of options for what they do for work, including painting, manual labour, and working at a law firm for the basic options, and some character types getting different options).

And you need to pay attention to what's going on, because some cards are on timers and will vanish or decay into something less useful/more dangerous if left alone, and other things will pop up and can kill you if you're not careful (running out of funds means you'll starve if you don't fix that; accumulating too much dread will kill you via despair; accumulating too much fascination will drive you mad; leaving evidence sitting around and not getting rid of it somehow can get you arrested, etc).

 

Arcade Spirits is a Visual Novel imagined and co-written by my good friend Stefan Gagne! Set in an alternate reality 20XX where arcades are mainstream entertainment, it's a fun workplace comedy where your character gets a job at the Funplex and gets to know a bunch of quirky characters, make friends and even develop a relationship (if you're into that). And there might be Something More Going On.

I appreciate the chance to be a thirsty bisexual disaster but there are many other ways to play the game. The characters are all super fun and memorable, which the voice acting really helps with. I haven't finished the game yet but I know the story is going to be a ride because that's how Twoflower usually does it.

 

Apex Legends is a blast lately tbh. It may genuinely be the pinnacle of the BR genre for me. Not as super gritty as PUBG but not as overly cartoony as Fortnite, plus; mmmmmm Titanfall 2 movement system. TF and it's kin are criminally underrated in the FPS-sphere.

 

I’ve been playing so much oxygen not included

I... think I might actually be starting to get decent at it! Maybe!

 

SUBNAUTICA. So much Subnautica. Will post some screenshots in the thread later

 

I’m trying and failing to play through kingdom hearts 1 and 2 before starting 3. I forgot just how many platform sections there are.

I like action, open world and first person shooters. I have a ps4 pro.

Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
Wandersong

 

Specifically the first borderlands or the entire series? Also, there is a borderlands thread! Pls come post in if you're interested, it kinda dried up a while ago

 

Baba is You via discord calls. I tell my boyfriend where to move and what to assemble basically and he goes and does it on his end. It's really fun doing it this way, if a bit awkward.

 

Goodness, but that game is good. Though it very suddenly went from making me feel brilliant to making me feel like an utter nincompoop, lol.

 

Mostly been playing TBOI and the new SSB game, but I feel bad because I want to play more story driven games. Think I'll try to open up my Radiant Historia later this week now that I have free time.

 

*eyes emoji*

 

Playing SMT3 by myself because as usual husband abandons things just after starting them

Why can't MC have a shirt. Someone get that boy a shirt

 

I just beat Baba Is You. The ending sure is...something.

 

Armello. which someone described as "game of thrones but with furries" and they're not exactly wrong. its a 1-4 person 3d digital board game (aka you can play it solo against the computer). the art is amazing and the music isn't half bad either.

premise is king is suddenly possessed by Evil and 4 clans are now fighting over who'll save the kingdom/take over the throne. 4 types of victories but they don't go the way you'd might expect from the initial description.

you will prolly find yourself with a vendetta against a rabbit (or bear, or wolf, or rat) but that only makes it that much more satisfying when you win anyway. the last time i cursed out an npc this much was a freaking baby angry zombie in modded minecraft who spawned in the one block that i didn't have sufficiently lit up then promptly stole all my torches and allowed all the other monsters to spawn

also modded minecraft for the past few months

tried darkest dungeon and chickened out on first mission where things went south so im looking into modding to get it into Even Easier Than Easy Baby-Mode. thankfully the steam workshop community has lots of stuff right up that alley for when i feel up to adding it and trying again

tried stardew valley and perfectionism was rearing up so didn't really get into it yet but gonna try again here soonish
