    Still playing Rimworld, committing atrocities to society if I’m not playing FFXIV. I always find some new mod to use or new challenge. I get bored with the end game and usually just start a new one, so in my current colony I’m trying to either launch the ship or get enough honor to take over their shuttle. I have yet to complete the game lol even after 100’s of hours of playing it.

      I’ve been on a Rimworld binge while away, one of the few games my laptop can handle and I have to say, it’s sooooo good, and yes the temptation to rebuild everything from scratch to create the perfect colony is always so strong.

    Been doing a proper run-through of Everspace 2, it finally came out of a two-year Early Access a few months ago, currently on 20% sale and has a free demo. Really enjoying it, it’s very Freelancer-esque and I’m liking the stop-start animated cutscene style.

      I probably wouldn’t have tried it out without GamePass, but I’m so glad I did. I think the 3rd person works well with a controller layout, and I’m honestly having more fun flying here than in SW: Squadrons. I do admit it’s making me wish I had the full flight stick kit.

      Have you ever tried the Infinite Space mod? It removes the final boss and turns it more into a “see how far you can get” roguelike.

        I haven’t. I know there’s a ton of content mods too. I’d like to try them some day when I have some more time.

      OMG I should so get back into it.

      Probably the game I’ve played the most hours of, but I haven’t played in years.

      And yeah, Hard is not a joke. I wish you good luck, and may your ennemies’ shield rooms always burn.

    I just finished Yakuza Kiwami 2 and am planning to start Mass Effect 1 Legendary tonight (never played). I’m open to any tips for which talents and whatnot to pick (I know pretty much nothing about it).

    Just finished Assassins Creed 2 for the first time in at least 10 years and I’m currently playing Brotherhood. This is also my first time playing through the DLCs

      Unfortunately we need to stay in bigger community groups until the level activity grows to a point where a community needs to break into smaller groups for specific games etc.

      Alternatively you could make a c/StreetFighter and populate it while you wait for people to slowly come, I’ve been doing that with several lemmy communities, but I can only maintain so many postings per day. That being said, the rate which each of them have grown already is greater than I could have hoped.

      You would also need to factor what instance to build it on, whether it is likely to get defederated and if its going to be one which people may check etc. However, if there is no other community yet, you just need to make sure its a simple enough domain to remember, etc. You really only need to post say twice per day.

        Thanks for the input! I am really thinking about making one, maybe in the lgbt lemmy, it’s a niche that really works with the new games. Now I only have to learn how to do tgat on here…

    The shadowrun series, some of them are on the shorter side ( there are user made storys that you can get from the workshop) but the world / story telling of fantastic there are quirks with some of the earlier games but im really enjoying the series.

    I just completed Blacksad: Under the Skin. Engaging story, somewhat janky controls. So now I’m in between games and am wondering if I should really start with Mass Effect.

    Finally played Persona 5 Royal. Absurdly good game, better than the hype. Third semester made me feel things like I haven’t felt in a video game since Undertale

    I’m playing Robo Quest. It’s a fps rogue lite from a few years ago. The combat reminds me of overwatch and the characters and weapons remind me of Borderlands.
