Ocarina of Time PC port. Free can is such a game changer

webfishing with some online friends :)

After finishing Citizen Sleeper, I've been trying again to get into Ys IX: Monstrum Nox. I'm still struggling, and it's kinda bewildering. I've been an Ys fan since I was little and this is the first time I haven't been able to get into one of them. I'm happy when I'm in a dungeon. Otherwise, I can't get on with the story and cast (like Ys VIII, it's a heavier focus here).

A friend suggested I continue on with Horizon, so I'll probably pick up The Frozen Wilds this week, too.

Stardew Valley and Ys origin.

With Stardew, It started on mobile, grew with an old Bluetooth xbone controller for combat, moved on to PC for the mods, and am now learning modding to add some things I missed from the mobile version 😁

Ys origin for when I want a break from Stardew. Simple demon bashing is quite therapeutic.

Ys Origin is one of my favorite games. :)

I think it might be my favourite of the Ys series, to be honest. So simple and fun.

My favorite is Ys 1, but Ys Origin is a close second.

I'm just wrapping up my first playthrough of Fallout 3. I'm not "done" but I finished the main storyline and am starting to lose steam with side quests and DLC. So I may wind up putting it down soon.

But I really enjoyed it. I'll probably play something else for a while, then give New Vegas a try.

I've been playing Dead Space remake on PS5 since it was free last month. Still haven't beaten it yet as I've had very little time. Been loving it though. Just hope I finish by the time the Christmas season starts in earnest haha. Kind of conflicting vibes.

[-] GriffinClaw@lemm.ee 3 points 3 days ago

Been wanting to play this soooo bad.

Definitely pickong it up after Ys.

[-] Berttheduck@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 days ago

The remake is soo good. They really nailed it. Kept the good bits and updated the bad. They even fixed the asteroids turret section, it's actually really fun in the remake.

Half Life 2 VR mod after finishing Alyx. Alyx itself was a fantastic VR experience, but the hype is such that I probably don't need to explain it.

Started a new character on one of my favorites Dark Souls 3. I just prefer these style FromSoft games than full on open world like Elden Ring. I still like Elden Ring but open world is not my favorite like so many other people seem to like.

[-] cod@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

I’m undecided. I’d consider Dark Souls III, Elden Ring, and Sekiro to be my 3 favourite games ever and I have no idea what order I’d put them in. I love both the open world and linear worlds

[-] MellowYellow13@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Nice yea I love FromSoft ever since the original Demon's Souls

[-] shittydwarf@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 3 days ago

I picked up darkest dungeon and all of the expansions for real cheap, really like the artwork in that game

[-] Maestro@fedia.io 7 points 3 days ago

I've been having a lot is f fun with Green Hell, which was on sale recently. It has a surprisingly good story for a survival game that gets better the further along the game.

There's one very annoying bug though. If you save, harvest something, die and reload, the resource does not respawn. This can really screw you over if you get an infection, you find and harvest some medicinal plant and then still die because it took you too long to find. Because when you reload, the plant you finally found is gone and now you need to find another, even further away!

I gave Darkest Dungeon a try yesterday and it's been a lot of fun. I love the whole premise of "getting the best of a bad situation" and learning to pass on with any mistakes and misfortune. Dealing with your inner perfectionist is a valuable skill and this game teaches you just that.

[-] Blaze@lemmy.cafe 6 points 3 days ago

Thank you for making it biweekly!

[-] cod@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

No problem! If we’ve still got lots of activity for a few of these posts I’ll try weekly

[-] Annoyed_Crabby@monyet.cc 7 points 3 days ago

Trying to finish Hades epilogue, it's pretty grindy tbh. Afterward might be Factorio space age.

[-] ChaosCoati@midwest.social 8 points 3 days ago

My spouse and I started Terraria on a whim. After going in blind and thoroughly getting out butts kicked the first night, we found the wiki, started a new game, and have survived a few nights now.

We’re trying to avoid spoilers, so only read the tutorial and getting started pages of the wiki. The mechanics on xbox aren’t always intuitive, and building is especially painful so far.

[-] SolOrion@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Terraria is one of my favorite games ever! I've been playing it on and off since 2011.

In case you missed them, the guide has some extremely helpful dialogue options. At least on PC. I can't imagine they'd leave that out of the Xbox version.

[-] ChaosCoati@midwest.social 2 points 3 days ago

Thanks, I’ll look for it

[-] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

Still playing Wazhack solo, and Stardew Valley (heavily modded) with my sibling. I have no idea when Orna came out, but we're all trying that because Pokémon GO got more annoying in general.

[-] caut_R@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Catching up on Vampire Survivors updates when solo.

It Takes Two with gf. Really dislike the story, we’re just skipping the cutscenes now. But great diverse gameplay and visual setpieces.

Gonna start Darksiders Genesis with a friend this weekend now that our run through Quake II remastered is done. I liked Quake II 64 (lol) the most out of the lot tbh. The levels were way less confusing. The Nightdive-made DLC was also great.

[-] astrsk@fedia.io 6 points 3 days ago

Replaying Undertale since it’s been a few years. This game still holds up and still makes me emotional in most ways. Forever worth recommending.

[-] B0NK3RS@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

State of Decay 2, I'm not normally one for zombies but so far so good. I need to convince my wife to join as it could be more fun in co-op.

[-] Gh_stt@lemmy.eco.br 3 points 3 days ago

Valdis Story, I'm on the beginning but already loving it, seems like a really solid Metroidvania

[-] eighty@aussie.zone 4 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

mildly addicted to mini motorways is all I'm willing to admit

Lair of the Clockwork God

I will probably also try Hogwarts Legacy next week when my kids get out of school for Thanksgiving.

I'm also going to try Fire Emblem: Engage on Switch, it's been a while since I played a Fire Emblem game.
