Got back into arc raiders just in time to do the expedition, and close to finishing the flickering flames project

I also went into the game blind, but the anxiety inducing loop I did not enjoy at all. I may give it another try some day.

I finally finished Metal Gear Solid 4 (️!) I played a bit of Helldivers 2 with friends. I'm still working on my first playthrough of Tomb Raider 2 on my Anbernic handheld as my couch game.

Once you finish the standard game and DLC, check out the mods. There have been annual game jams that do add some stories.

During what break? Xmas?

That game is insidious. I started it one day, played six or seven hours a day for a week, hit 30ish hours, and beat the game. I couldn’t do anything else. I was so sucked in. Great game!

My partner and I got Palworld when it came out, played maybe five or six hours…. I tried again solo later and got to level 10 or 15. Just recently, my partner saw me playing Enshrouded and mentioned wanting to try Palworld again… we started it up and put ten hour into it in one day. Yesterday we picked it up again, and put another ten hours in. Having a really fun time.

Haha, I did the same exact thing. I stopped after I realized it has seemingly infinite NG+ It's perfect for the Steamdeck.

Factorio Minecraft and rimworld But that's been the same for last few years so *shrugs*

I've been burning through some Gamepass offerings that I've passed over. The Wolf Among Us is a fun Telltale game. Superliminal is a good mindfuck puzzle game. There were a few times that it took me a while to find the key to the puzzle, but I never felt "stumped" throughout the game. and I'm a few hours into Monster Sanctuary which is essentially Pokemon in a classic Metroid map. Having fun so far and planning on sticking with it for a while.

Oh man, for me it was so much more chill than anxiety producing. Is, since now I’m tackling the DLC.

Awesome! I’ve been worrying about what to do when I finish the DLC.

Ultimate chicken horse with the GF BF6/HD2 with the boys Slay the Spire when I have nothing I wanna do

Megabonk. Intravenous 1. No third game. (This could be the name of a game, but sadly I'm referring to the fact that I only played those first two games during the holidays)

I really liked OP2. It felt like a more polished version of the original, and the music was amazing. The boat mechanic and day/night cycle really helped expand the world.

+1 to E33. I’m on Act 3 and just enjoying exploring. This is an absolutely amazing game. The Manor, Verso’s Drafts, the music. The list just goes on and on.

I’ve been hung up on Unnamed Space Idle for a while, an incremental game that involves moving your little ship forwards through little sectors watching it blast infinite enemy ships while numbers go up. It’s insidious how it layers system after system for making those numbers go up to make the whole process interesting. At first you just slot stuff in as it unlocks because there’s space, but then there’s more to equip than you have slots for and you have to start focusing one or two things at a time. There have been days where I have just sat watching and every few minutes clicking something to shave just a few minutes off a major upgrade.

My latest obsession.

Didn't knew about the mods, that might be a rabbit hole to dig into.

https://outerwildsmods.com/mods/ Quantum space buddies is good if you want to play coop. That's how I played the DLC Suitlog allows access to the computer from your suit Scout stream makes the scout a video stream instead of a snapshot As for story DLC, I've played "the vision" and "The stranger". I liked the stranger much better, but it's nice to have any new content.
