I’m multitasking games right now to help clear out my backlog. I’m getting close to finishing Alan Wake 2 and I just started playing Ys IX. Not quite as good as Ys VIII, but still a lot of fun. I also got distracted by Guild Wars 2 and Loop Hero.

I didn’t know Valve still made games 😄.

Oh my

Unpopular opinion, but I enjoyed the hell out of Redfall. It wasn’t what most people wanted from Arkane and I completely agree, but it was still a lot of fun and didn’t deserve all the hate it got. It isn’t perfect and had a ton of bugs, but the scores it received made no sense and it seemed like it was just fun to jump on the hate bandwagon.

I’m so excited for this. I love the brains out of No Man’s Sky, but this game is really going to benefit from focusing on one world/planet. Between this and Nightingale, this is going to be a good time for survival crafting games.

Valheim is the only survival crafting game that I play to relax. Just log in, listen to the music and the ambient sounds and just chill. Idk why, but the rain and weather effects really relax me

I’m fine with remasters that allow us to play old games on modern hardware. I’m somewhat ok with remakes to an extent. I’m not ok with the constant remakes of games that aren’t old enough to need a remake or the original game still holds up. Most recent remakes aren’t needed and feel like cash grabs

I’ve been jumping around between BG3, Control and Moonring. I highly recommend Moonring for anyone looking for a modern old school style rpg. It’s completely free too

Because it’s one of the last few browsers that’s usable and not based on Chrome/Chromium

On my gaming desktop, I am using Fedora currently with the Awesome WM. That might change though with all the RH stuff going on. On my gaming laptop I switch between Arch and Void with Qtile on both.

The first thing that comes to mind was my first play through of Yakuza 0. Majima spends so much time winning stuffed animals for a little girl that lost her dad. Part way through the quest line she starts calling him dad and it made him so happy. It warms the heart and I could not stop smiling.

For me, it’s always Ocarina of Time. The music always improves my mood and there is something oddly comforting about the game.

That’s just one more reason to love the Valheim devs
