    Demon souls remake ! I’m doing upper latria and I’m liking the vibe in this archstone so far.

    This remake is lacking the quintessential FS atmosphere, but it’s not bothering me that much on this section.

    level design is great, boss fights are very different from what I’m used to. It’s quirky. Really wish I could play the OG.

    “Ori and the Will of the Wisps” for me. I played the first one a few years ago and really liked it. So far, the sequel is even better!

    The Forest.

    There’s a great sequel too, but the first one is a lot of fun with friends if you like survival, base building, beautiful scenery, and naked cannibals chasing you through the woods screaming.

    Finally got around to playing Caves of Qud and it took me a while to figure it out and dial in the controls on Steam Deck but now it’s starting to become clear just how insane this game is…

      Godspeed. I also nearly beat the game and then put it down and forgot most of it so ended up beating it almost twice. It’s a great game. Still haven’t finished the Blood and Wine DLC though…

    I played quite a bit of erenshor. It’s a single player offline MMORPG style game with fake players. It’s pretty fun. It really scratches my MMO healer gameplay that i love but not the MMO part that i don’t XD the way i’ve been playing has been pretty grindy since i don’t explore the NPC dialogues enough and just look for dungeons for my level and i like that. I have the usual team with bots playing paladin, sorcerer, rogue, archer and i’m a druid.

      I fail to understand the point of an MMO without the social aspect, as IMHO their gameplay is generally pretty bad.

      It’s great if it works for you and you enjoy that type of game btw, this is just my personal opinion not a judgement of value

    Minishoot adventure

    This game was made for me…dual stick shooter with metroidvanias elements. Strongly recommend it. I’m having a blast.

    I just started Wildermyth and I’m having a good time with it. Part of me wants to install some of the visual mods for faces and hair types, but part of me wants to wait until I finish one game.

      Two of my childhood friends helped develop that game. One of them wrote the music for it, the other was a programmer who helped code it.

    Chrono Ark

    I’m at the “end” of the story. I have one more run to get the first ending, and then an uncertain amount of optional grind to get the true ending. I will probably reserve my final thoughts for when I see the endings, but overall this game has been fantastic. Regardless of what you think of the story I’d say the gameplay is solid enough to be worth giving it a shot if you enjoy the genre, and if the story interests you then that is just a cherry on top. Despite not really being that into anime I found myself enjoying several of the characters and getting pretty interested in the plot once it got going, and I’m intrigued to see how it closes out. Mechanically I think it’s just really great, with both solid core gameplay and some really fun and interesting boss designs.

    Ninja Gaiden 4

    I haven’t played a whole lot this week, but I finished another chapter. Still very early on in the game. It’s very good. I have some issues with it (and it’s one of the most egregious offenders of “yellow paint” in recent years) but overall it’s a great Character Action Game. In some ways it feels more like a cousin to the earlier entries than a core family member - removal of specific combo strings combined with addition of parrying and stance switching has altered the DNA quite a bit. That being said it’s fantastic in its own way and really fun and fluid. Plus the bosses are actually good in this game (so far), which is… not really something you can say about previous games.

    Ninja Gaiden 2 Black

    The fantastic “White” mod is about to get a huge update with more or less 1:1 recreated spawns of the original NG2, and at the same time a Modified Moveset Mod released, so I had to to back and play some of the best chapters. NG2 combat still is really something special, and the moveset mod really makes it even better.

    I’ve gone back to Overwatch now that 6v6 is getting enough players in Australia.

    I kind of regret Arc Raiders, I joined because I heard there was Aggression Based Match Making, which there seemed to be the case for the first hundred hours or so. That appears to have been turned off in the last week and I’m just not interested in playing with sweaty Tarkov style players shooting me in the back, nor having to re-craft all my gear every time I get killed.
