Anyone here play video games?

@Filthy I didn't realize you had been playing Maneater! I played this to 100% a few weeks ago and loved it, from the goofy narration to the blatant over powered feeling late game. I used the Bone Shark mainly to just tear through boats, I was basically maxed out before the last area. A few bugs, but a nice change of pace game. I e been aging Empire of Sin recently, I get sucked I to turn based strategy

Yeah it was a great game… perfect length and was basically Metroid Prime shark version

I HIGHLY recommend Resident Evil 8: Village!! What an amazing game it was. I binged straight through for nine hours. It's definitely a worthy successor to RE4 (the GOAT).
I didn't like it at first because I had a third-person gameplay is superior to fist confirmation bias… But the game really sucks you in. There's a couple really weird completely impossible things that happen to the protagonist. But it is all explained by the end of the game and makes sense.
The story is pretty much RE4/Evil Dead/Saw with a little Tim Burton thrown in there too. And the second to the last act is like completely mind-blowing. There's also a part of the game that was so scary, my hands were actually shaking. But the majority of the game is pretty much action.
I absolutely love the game and am playing through again with better weapons. This was an addictive part of RE4, replaying the game to get awesome guns and being completely invincible.

Even if you don't like video games, check this out. Mind blown.

I've been playing "the ascent" recently, good semi mindless top down shooter
-
I played that a while too. The font was too small for me to read and there is tons of reading..I might wait and play it on PC
-
Have any of you tried Slay the Spire? It's a rogue-like deck builder on the PC, iOS, etc.
I must have over 150 hours on the game. It's turn-based so it's great for when I have like 20 minutes to kill between meetings or something like that.

I have not played that one. @Paul9221 I'll have to check it out.

@Oaktavia I played a decent amount of fallout 76 and finished the last season board, haven't played the last 2 updates. Have you been playing recently?
-
@Paul9221 I loved playing Fallout 4 and 76 has a lot of similarities. I love 76 too but it has a lot of bugs and glitches. There is in general a lot more to do in 76 compared to 4. If you like playing with friends or strangers in a shared world, you'd like 76. I can get into more details about the differences if you'd like.
@Joberwocky I played a decent amount during summer break. This is with my new character…my last one was a few years back when the game was super new. It is a lot different than it used to be but still full of things that need a fixin'. The latest update has a Brotherhood storyline that I enjoyed. Also, you can add on legendary perks to any weapon or armor now in a workbench which is really fun and cool. I'm probably 20 or so spaces into the new board.
@Seul Much worse in with bugs and glitches and server disconnects, for sure. But when it does work, it can be super enjoyable. Outer World sequel?! First I've heard of it. I loved the first one but it was so short! The trailer is funny…I looked up to see if it's coming out for PS4 and I found this, "Microsoft confirmed that the RPG would not be coming to PlayStation or the Nintendo Switch, two platforms that the first game came to."

Definitely a good idea to jump back into FO3. I have only scratched the surface on that one.
@AdamJ That is radical!!!

@Seul I just had a coworker recommend The Outer Worlds (1) to me yesterday. Should I wait for #2 or is it worth playing #1?
Have you guys tried Valheim? My brother, my son, and I have been playing it every Saturday. We decided to try something new, and I really cannot recommend it enough for whichever game you try next. We made a pact to not do ANY research on the game. We go into it completely blind every weekend.
I'm sure we're doing things wrong, I'm sure we could've finished it a month ago had we looked stuff up online, but I cannot stress enough how much fun we're having not knowing what's right around the corner. We fought this one boss and it became abundantly clear that we were not going to be able to defeat it. Our solution in the end was to set up an elaborately defended base near the boss and drag him to us. I am 99% sure that we overlooked some weapon or material that would have allowed us to defeat him in 10 seconds without jumping through all of those hoops, but those hoops made the victory so much sweeter!
The idea reminds me of how I used to play games, back before the Internet. You get stuck, you bang your head against the wall, you walk away. Days later, hand and mouth equally stuffed with Doritos Cool Ranch, the solution dawns on you.
