I have been playing Stardew Valley because the real world sucks and everybody can piss off 😠
NFS Unbound and BF2042 cause it‘s five bucks each rn.
I think BF is fine for 5 bucks if you don‘t think about how much worse it is compared to BF3 or 4, it‘s still silly fun for cheap on its own.
NFS I struggle to recommend even for this price, unless you‘re already done with all the Forzas, Crews, Grids, and Dirts of this world. The driving just feels incredibly wrong, lots of „what the fuck just happened?“ And it runs poorly even though it looks mediocre.
Chained Together was fun so far with a friend, although it‘s clearly not very polished.
I also got Deep Rock Galactic, but I haven‘t spent much time in it yet. This one in contrast looks very polished lol
Lastly, Chicory has been a lot of fun and a unique experience. A cute and wholesome game I can recommend.
After I became „worthy“ this week in Distance, I also want to recommend it again. It‘s a game I discovered through people talking about it on here and it was a great experience.
Factorio, checking out Space Age. Discovered that Cliff Explosives are moved further down the tech tree…
Friend bought me ToTK so I’ve been having fun with that.
Just finished Death Stranding, now starting up Witcher 3.
I played death stranding during COVID and it was the perfect game to do then (no idea if that was patient at the time) the world being so beautiful and fun/ hard to navigate was great for when you couldn’t go outside. The soundtrack is brilliant too.
Yeah, playing during the pandemic made it hit harder, I feel. It really drove home the loneliness, but also the need for a connected community during unprecedented times.
It’ll always feel like a relic of that time, won’t it? I wonder how we’ll talk about it in 20 years…
I played a chunk of it then on PS4, but found the text exhausting and put it down. One of these days I’ll have to play it on PC, but it just won’t feel the same.
