    I’ve been playing Grim dawn for a while. Just finished getting to lvl 96 on a spellbinder. As much as I’d like to try Diablo 4, $70 is just too steep at the moment. Maybe when it goes on sale

      GD fills that Diablo need pretty darn well. I enjoy it more than Diablo 1-3, at any rate.

        And if the need comes, I’m pretty sure Grim Dawn has a mod that’s just Diablo 2 anyways.

    Tears Of the Kingdom! Fully went in expecting to be disappointed, but it just continues to blow me away the deeper I get into it. Truly incredible what they were able to pull off with such old hardware.

      My partner has been playing it and I’m shocked at what’s in that game. Really impressed as an onlooker

        It’s honestly outstanding. When I realized how much content was in this game compared to BOTW my jaw hit the floor! I’ve been a life long Zelda fan so it makes me so happy to see the franchise getting renewed love and excitement around it.

    Trying to finish my first full Darkest Dungeon run since starting in 2016. I never started the final DD level but completed everything else, but I feel I can’t start Darkest Dungeon II before completing the campaign in the first game.

    That and probably some more Cities: Skylines 🙂

      I really really wanted to like Darkest Dungeon, but either I really suck at it or there’s just too much grinding for me. I’ve gone through about 30 in-game weeks and haven’t really gotten anywhere.

        It is a big grind, yes. If that’s not your cup of tea I don’t think you’ll ever grow fond of it. There’s also alot of randomness that at times feels very unfair. But for some reason, it appeals to me 🙂.

        Part two is not as long, or so I read, but you still have to grind to unlock characters and skills, apparently.

    I picked up Hi-Fi Rush on sale about a week ago, blew through it once, and am now working on a second play through/new game plus. Super fun game. After putting it down after playing for a while I still feel like I’m doing things to a beat for a bit.

      I love rhythm games but not normally a fan of action arcade. Hi Fi rush is something special though and I think everyone should give it a chance.

      I like hifi rush alot, its a real sleeper and i like the vibe. If you are looking for more I really recommend bullets per minute. It’s a roguelike rhythm shooter with a really baller soundtrack. It’s less forgiving than hifi rush but when you get in the zone it can be really rewarding.

      That is so much fun. Fallout 1 was one of those games that just blew my mind when it came out, and it’s still one of my favourites.

        I may have played it a time or two.

        I enjoy the tone and tightness of the first game’s story much more. I enjoy the second game’s expanded mechanics and item variety. In terms of tone, really Fallout 2 really sets the course for the rest of the franchise. Fallout 1 ends up being this very strange outlier that never really got revisited by official games (there are some stand alone mods that capture it a lot more).

    Lots of Diablo 4 this weekend if I can actually get some free time. We’ll see about that, but that’s been my main time sink lately.

      The price tag is such a burden for me but my wife and I really truly enjoyed d3 and the a lot of arpgs, grimdawn, torchlight etc. Is it genuinely worth £120 for two copies?

        My wife and I bought it and we don’t regret the purchase; but also we’re doing well enough this year that is not a huge burden for us. So B like… it’s worth it generally IMO, but if it’s a burden, I can’t say that any game is worth it.

        I’m happy I’m a patient gamer, I’ll definitely buy it, but will not pay full price. My partner and I are both gamers, so it’d be way too expensive for us to get it right away.

    This weekend is very busy but I’m sure I can squeeze in some Doom and Terraria (just realising that is a strange combo).
