Despite having a maddening AA and AAA backlog and having a well-equipped gaming PC, this week I've been exclusively grinding the shit out of a free to play game on Steam called HoloCure that could run on a toaster.

By FAR, the best Vampire Survivors clone out there.

Going to use this thread to document when I complete games.

Today, I finished the original Freespace from 1998. Despite being ancient, it’s still a lot of fun. I never played the original as a kid—my focus was on its much more famous sequel, which I played to death. It was great to finally experience and complete the first game.

There’s a passionate and active community around these games, and they’ve even ported the original to the Freespace 2 engine, which made it a smoother experience. I really enjoyed the campaign but have been looking forward to wrapping it up so I can dive into the community’s remastered version of Freespace 2

They keep coming out with games too quickly! I haven't even started Infinite Wealth yet, and they are releasing a pirate themed Yakuza game with the greatest video game character of all time. MAD DOG MAJIMA. WHEN WILL I GET TO PLAY IT.




FUCKING SAMOA JOE IS IN IT




Also, Wacky... it's happening...



They seriously need to port Yakuza 0 next

Got a great kill cam last night in COD, I shot one guy then threw a frag in the direction of a bad guy, the grenade hit someone in the head and broke his neck, then rolled in front of a different guy and blew him up.

Just installed Baldurs Gate 3.

Also just put Black Myth Wukong on download.

BG3 is incredible. I have been eyeing Wukong for a while as well. The backlog is out of control, but I'll get to it eventually.

Having a blast with my Kiwami 2 play through. Did this substory last night which might be one of the most unhinged and hilarious out of all the games I've played so far (Yakuza 0, and Kiwami 1) and they had some pretty wild shit in them too.

I'll buy path of exile 2 today if we still gonna do that.

Its only £20 in PS5 store.

OK, I was hyped about this before, but this is fucking insane. The only problem being that I'm so many games behind being able to play it!

Yeah, I never made it through Yakuza 0... I need to start over again.

"The problem I have with the Yakuza series is it's too zany and unrealistic for me"
