I finished Horizon Zero dawn and I just started playing Forbidden West. I can’t give you a detailed impression but so far, I like it.

Currently, Hollow Knight, since Silksong finally comes out next week. Before that, a split between Kerbal Space Program and Nine Sols.

1,759 mods published in the last 28 days on nexus.

On continue.

For the overwhelming majority of missions, the info is largely contained in a text briefing when selecting missions. For the story beat missions, though, it’s voice acted stuff pre- and mid- mission.

Units of measurement are redefined a thousand years in the future

Or not, I dunno. Head Canon.

I love MW5. Its modding scene is so robust that the game is incredibly customizable to be basically whatever type of experience you want. That being said, my mod list is out of date so getting back into it would be a huge chore right now haha

Currently Vintage Story, BallisticNG and Deadlock. No one game is currently holding a monopoly on my attention. All very good games, but it does feel a bit like I’m just in a holding pattern waiting for Silksong. It was easier to wait without an official release date xD

I had to skip that knight! I got deaded too many times and just left hahaha. I’m in my third legacy dungeon in Shadow and it’s pretty brutal.

You should check out !patientgamers@sh.itjust.works, I do a post like this every week and it tends to get decent interaction every time.

Nice, just subscribed!

Which one is the third? I’ve done Belurat and Castle Ensis (if it counts?), only just started poking around in Shadow Keep but it looks absolutely wild so far. I also made it to the putrescent knight’s arena but I’ve not tried actually fighting it yet, just jumped in once to see what was going on at the end of a session

The knight was pretty brutal, but fortunately this run has been my “learn to parry” one, so I came basically perfectly equipped to fight any player-model enemy that isn’t using colossal weapons

I think it’s Shadow Keep! I’ve found two of the bosses—one insane tree guy with three phases that has killed me 20 times so I went another way, one big fat boss guy, and there has to be more cuz I’m not done yet…

There’s one with three phases? That is so absolutely going to catch me out with no flasks left whenever I first get to it, god dammit. I can’t wait

Oh man… i don’t wanna spoil anything, but uhhhh I think I have to come back to it with full blessing. I can’t get close even with a buddy who’s extremely good.

Nothing wrong with that! I hit an absolute brick wall with Margit when I first played the base game because I hadn’t played a Souls game in years. I explored around until I found the secret route to Liurnia and did most of that before I even got into Stormveil

Did you go into a regular, boring, nondescript building and then take the longest elevator ever? Because I did the and it brought tears to my eyes when I finally got down there (also first real souls game, I only played a bit of Demon’s Souls PS3 before Elden Ring)

Edit: also this tree is far beyond any boss in the main game, and insane compared to the other expansion bosses. I don’t even think I need to kill it to progress.

Recently picked up Enshrouded and giving that a go. Thinking of checking out the new update to No Man’s Sky but haven’t redownloaded it yet.

I was worried the first hour or two of Enshrouded I wouldn’t like it, felt very similar to Ark and Grounded, which I wasn’t much of a fan of due to the progression of those games moving at a snails pace and being brutalized by most enemies early on. But I’m happy to say I haven’t felt the same disappointment from Enshrouded, sitting around 10-ish hours in. My character looks like a hobo dressed in whatever trash they could find hitting enemies with a crooked stick, but the combat feels pretty fun (instead of brutal) and there’s interesting loot all over to keep the carrot and stick centers of my brain engaged. “Oh look, a slightly more interesting crooked stick!”

I like it so far.

I have not seen whichever part that is, no. Although it sounds like the same experience as finding Siofra for the first time, which I think was one of my favourite moments in the entire game

Oh I might be thinking of Siofra! Sorry hahaha, it’s been a while.

I went back into the expansion after months of not playing, and I forgot how much I loved this game… but sheeiit, is the expansion brutal. The main game was hard, but I had a much easier time roaming around and having fun and exploring without dying. Shadow seems a lot more…. “Go here and do the thing to progress”.
