Is there a better first post than this one?
Now let’s patiently wait for it to fill up! (hopefully)
I got a VR headset so I got to play some VR titles I had been wanting to try.
- Half life Alyx
- The Last Clockwinder
If you want to slash shit with big-ass swords, I’d recommend Until You Fall as well!
It’s a casual swordfighting roguelite in VR. It’s a blast.
You have any other VR recommendations? I just got a headset, playing through alyx, don’t know where to go from there other than Skyrim vr
- I Expect You To Die: I’ve yet to finish it, but it’s hilarious. You’re playing the spy in over-the-top spy scenarios.
- SUPERHOT VR: brutally satisfying. Don’t expect any kind of story, though.
- Pavlov VR: literally VR CS:GO. Most advanced and satisfying shooting I’ve seen in VR yet.
- Ancient Dungeon VR: Pixelart dungeoncrawler (roguelike) in VR. Absolutely phenomenal. I’ve only played it for a small amount of time, though.
- Beat Saber: classic. I don’t like rhythm games that much, but with custom maps, it’s one of the best imo.
Skyrim is my go-to nowadays, though. Modded, it’s one of the most immersive experiences, ever. It’s also my first time playing, so I’ve a lot ahead of myself.
Monolith. It’s a great little bullet hell roguelite
Dishonored 2 on Steam Deck. Great game, having tons of fun. I love how much they expanded the stealth options since the first one.
Some very well known stuff like Valheim but also dredge.
Dredge is great for casual playstyle if you like nice looking fishing/boating experiences in games. Think stardew Valley level of fishing. Something that just works and is very pleasant. The theme of Lovecraft is enticing but not overly profound.
Diablo 4 - Kinda burned out… 50+ is basically the exact same content on repeat. I’m excited to see where it goes though. I’ll jump back in for Season 1.
Overwatch 2 - To scratch my competitive itch. Sad that PvE has been trimmed down so much.
Deeprock Galactic - Rock and Stone! Best class based FPS PvE experience available on any system. Made me excited about OW2’s PvE. Now I’m excited about DRG 2 (is this a thing?)
No DRG2, but Ghostship does have a couple projects about to be in playtest. DRG survivor as a rougelike arena shooter bullet hell, and something else I can’t remember right now.
:0
I didn’t know it was available yet, I saw the trailer a while back. Just requested access. Rock and STONE!
Thankfully just finished Valhalla. It was good in points and a real slog in others. The world was beautiful and enjoyed traversing ancient England.
I accidentally (wished) Stadia had stayed around but I bought a bunch of games as they were on sale and didn’t think Stadia would fold so fast. Cannot trust google but I wanted so bad for it to succeed.
Anyway I bought lots of Ubisoft and a few others. Have been steadily making my way through them all and now onto odyssey. Really enjoying it. I think it’s just much brighter than Valhalla.
Also I dip in and out of valheim when I just want to chill out.
Gears 5 came out on GeForce so me and the Mrs have been trying to get into that. I’ve played them before but they are very slow going. Just the movement speed is slow and takes a long time to get hard to it.
I decided about a year back to work on my steam backlog. Just finished the Titanfall 2 campaign for the first time and it was excellent. Wish there where more games like the sections with the mech combat. Decided to completely change it up and now working on Yakuza 0 which is all over the place and somehow works.
Hollow Knight :)
Minecraft 1.20 and DDV with my 5yr old while waiting on the next FromSoftware game
155ish hours into Elden Ring. Still haven’t completely uncovered the map. I just fuckin love playing that game so much. I’m not even concerned with finishing it, I just enjoy playing it.
my first playthrough was like 180 hours. it’s a fantastic game
Skyrim VR with mods. Recently bought a quest 2 and it’s been really fun
YES! Me too. No idea why I thought to boot up the ol Skyrim for the 100th time but man. VR Skyrim hits different. I’m using the FUS mod pack and it’s a blast. Question for you, do you use airlink to connect, or a USB c connection.
I use a wired connection and have issues with my connection randomly dropping, want to see if I’m the only one
Currently playing Thief Gold and Alien Isolation (depends if I am on the PC or PS4). Alien Isolation didn’t like it much, maybe is because I made the mistake of not playing with headphones, but at the beginning was scared then after repeating the same part multiple times because the Alien (the hospital part), started noticing how it is cheating and the one hit kill made it lose a lot of fear factor. This might have happened because I couldn’t hear the Alien properly and got caught more easily or because the ambient sound is unnoticeable with the overall noise of my house.
Thief I am liking it a lot, how I am playing it with headphones, I am enjoying the sound design. I can know where every enemy is just with sound instead of relying on a minimap or wall hacks like most modern stealth games do. It has been a really good experience even if it has been mostly playing the first two levels in different difficulties.
If you’re playing A:I on PC there’s a mod that will fix the borked Xeno AI, might make the game a whole lot less stressful and allow you to enjoy it without the Xeno overkill.
Just finished the main story of Dying Light 1 and really enjoyed it. I got it free from epic games, and I have to admit their plan of giving out free games is working.
I just recently finished DL1 too, also free on epic because I never did get round to buying it, and I noticed something that I can’t unnotice now. The story acts like you have deep and meaningful connections to all the characters in the story yet I barely spent any time at the tower at all with most of the game I was just haring around the Harran, so Crane never should have got so worked up about all your tower buddies getting wiped out.
Also, why did they not port some of the systems over from the following? Like the hives expecially would have worked quite well in Harran I reckon, and why didn’t they put just a little more variety into their zombies? It got a bit much decapitating the same zombie model over and over again, at least DL2 has the I Am Legion mod that recently released an update bringing a huge amount of variations to the appearance of the zombies.
Regardless I thoroughly enjoy both for my wrecking hordes of zombies fix.
Dying light is such a beautiful experience. The Additional. Stories in the DLC are fun enough from an “more stuff to do standpoint”.
I’ve played a bit of the DL2 and it’s different but also very fun but am saving it for when I have more time.
I have been playing Ocarina of Time 3d as well as Pokemon Alpha Sapphire, the 3ds is really a great console. Given the new update I have also been getting back into Minecraft, it is a small update but I do enjoy many of the little things that were added and it is a great excuse to spend some time with friends.
The 3ds is my favorite console! Have you hacked yours? It opens up so many possibilities like gba support. With hacks the 3ds can play every Nintendo portable before it and I think that’s rad. The Wii U has a similar thing with hacks where it can actually play every Nintendo console before it period, besides 3ds. Let me know if you need help hacking it. It’s one of my favorite things to do.
I have! Particularly so I can play Majora’s mask with this as well as some Pokémon romhacks among other things.
Hey, thanks for the link! There’s a Majora’s Mask shaped hole in my gaming culture, and I did plan to remedy to that with the 3DS version.
Started dishonored for the first time yesterday. Currently replaying Mirror’s Edge and jogging along in Horizon Zero Dawn
Ah, what a joy it would be to have Dishonored to start again for the first time! Amazing games.
