A new week and a new thread.

What are you all playing!

I’m surprised nobody else is playing Remnant 2. It just came out and it’s pretty damn fun.

They called the original “Dark Souls with guns” and it’s definitely that sort of game in the sequel. But it’s not as punishing as a typical souls-like since there’s no death penalty. It’s perfect for my preferences since I hate the “losing all your money when you die” thing in Elden Ring.

Apparently it’s very fun in co-op but I have been playing solo so I can’t speak to that.

At only $50, it’s a pretty solid recommendation from me if “dark souls with guns” piques your curiosity even a little. AA title with no jank and I’ve only seen a single bug so far in my playing on XSX.

I was just watching a couple friends of mine stream Remnant 2 earlier and it does look pretty slick. It seems there is at least one puzzle that requires co-op to fully solve, and there may be more further in just so you and others are aware.

No oxygen included. Finally might make it to a point where I discover a new machine/furniture and have to restart again to plan my base around it.

A bit behind the curve, but I just finished The Return of the Obra Dinn. Wonderful game, I took the time to 100% it and it was very rewarding.

If you are looking for another game with the same feel, try Case of the Golden Idol. I genuinely thought it was the same developer until I looked it up.

Started a fresh play of Mindustry this week and forgot how much I enjoy it. I play primarily on PC now to save my hands, but the mobile apps are free if someone wants to try it out!

Great game! And very playable on mobile too. I also enjoyed Shapez a lot. Looking forward to the sequel.

Shapez ruined me on Factorio. It feels like it took Factorio, removed all the weird distractions, and got down to the distilled essence of the genre. Everything else feels unsatisfying now. Send help!

Haven’t touched RimWorld in a few years. Got addicted to it again this week. Hopefully soon it will pass.

One of the best games ever! Doing a vanilla Royalty run now, and looking forward to try Biotech later.
