What Are You Playing?

[TheSSNintendo]

Gonna start working on my backlog of games, and I've been playing The Last of Us Part II recently. Also getting into Evoland 2 on Steam.

 

[Big Papa Paegan]

Jumping back and forth between the latest GTA Online update (which has made the game more fun than its been in years) and Division 2 (which is getting another Season soon), gearing up for Helldivers 2 in February.

Been playing Balatro on PC and it's insanely addictive. "Combine valid poker hands with unique Joker cards in order to create varied synergies and builds. Earn enough chips to beat devious blinds, all while uncovering hidden bonus hands and decks as you progress. You’re going to need every edge you can get in order to reach the boss blind, beat the final ante and secure victory."

Recently played through Cyberpunk 2077, and play a little bit of FTL here and there, but it's basically been Final Fantasy XIV all the time this year.

Busted out Spelunky and Dead Cells for the first time in a while. Low stakes and fun as he'll even if I suck.

Also going to give MGSV another playthrough soon, I think. Been years

 

[muzzington]

Too much No Man’s Sky.

I started the current expedition but I'm just not feeling this one. Finished the first phase but don't think I'm going to get much further.

 

[JN News]

I'm currently playing Pinball for the NES on my Nintendo Wii.

I've been playing a fair bit of Rivals of Aether 2. It's fun, but like all platform fighters, I'm often like "why aren't I playing melee right now instead?"

 

[HarleyQuinn]

Still kicking it with Everybody's Golf on my new PS5 and gonna be installing NBA 2K25 shortly. I did see friggin' COOL BOARDERS in the Playstation Store so I may need to get that thing ASAP. Anybody know if it's just a remastered version or if it's the PS1 version?

I've been digging into my old games bag, and Star Trek Birth of The Federation still has an active community keeping it alive despite coming out 25 years ago. It's one of my favourite 4x games along with Civ 2 and Master of Orion 2.

Waiting on the PS Store to drop Cool Boarders 2 just for the half-pipe mode. Finished off Epic Mickey Rebrushed and that was a lot of fun, great enjoyable game.

My Dad traded in my PS4 for a Nintendo Wii at our local Gamestop (they had to order/ship the Wii). He snagged the Sonic & Mario Winter Olympics & London 2012 Olympic Games as well as Wii Party 1 & 2. I ordered for him for Christmas: Wii Play (mainly for the Duckhunt-esque shooting game), Mario Kart Wii, and Super Smash Bros. Brawl Wii. Also ordered him a couple "Classic" controllers just in case.

Metaphor ReFantazio is really good so far. Not Persona good IMO but really great.

I remember someone at school my freshman year telling me about that game and thinking he was such a nerd.

I should try it out.

This has the vanilla Botf all a bunch of mods. You can get MoO2 for like 5 bucks on Steam I think.

 

[Valeyard]

Reminds me, I'm trying FTL again. Maybe it'll take now.

 

[Smues]

Don't worry, it's not addictive at all.
(I literally just finished a play through minutes ago).

Finished this the other day and yeah not as good as the Persona games. I maxed out all the social bonds, and everything else in the first play through which I don't think I've ever done in a Persona game. I was left with nothing to do for the last week or so of the game before the big finale. TBF I play on a low difficulty setting because I'm just here for to chill out.

 

[cobainwasmurdered]

This is one of the worst endings to a game of alltime lol.

Spoiler

All of the JL that Brainac brainwashed and the Suicide Squad killed throughout the game were actually clones. Except Wonder Woman who wasn't brainwashed and struggled with the idea of killing her friends. She's dead. Tim Drake is most likely dead. All of this takes place in the Arkhamverse.

No Man's Sky got a new 20 gig update today. Looks like a good time for a whole new save.
