Have you been spending hours trying to pass a level? Or maybe you are completely addicted to a newly bought game. Do you have a question about a game or would like to share something else? In the Weekly Discussion Thread, you can do it all!
Please don’t forget to use the spoiler tag as soon as you start talking about a storyline.
Currently playing Baldur’s Gate 3, 2 player co-op and it’s been an absolute blast.
Recently a friend started playing No Man’s Sky and I joined in to help him get started and give him some tips… Only to get re-addicted to it myself so now I’m split between BG3 and NMS 🥲
I think I haven’t slept as little as these past few weeks. 🥲
Get off work, play NMS for 3 to 4 hours and have dinner.
Join my brother for BG3 co-op.
Look at the time and suddenly it’s 1am. Start getting stuff ready to leave only to get lost on some side quest… When I finally have enough it’s 3am…
We’ve never been able to get co-op to work reliably in No Man’s Sky and it seems Hello Games has no intention to ever address this. It’s a shame. We had a lot of fun when it would connect us.
What do you mean you can’t co-op?
I’m playing with my friend and we’re actually a party of 3
I’m on steam, he’s on gamepass on PC, and his SO is on gamepass on xbox.
So considering all this madness works, I don’t see why you should have issues :(
As a gw2 veteran (in the sense of owning the game for a long time, not that I am very good at it) I’m pretty sure you’ll like it!
I honestly feel sad for how overlooked GW2 is…
The community is great, don’t be afraid to ask for help if you’re stuck on a quest or a puzzle.
More often than not people will go out of their way to help you!
Never heard of skill up but now I’m curious about their review :)
Edit: I haven’t tried the new Xpack yet, but I’ve heard it’s great! Might buy it later on discount since I’m not planning on playing for a couple of months at least.
Finally completed Gears of War 5, was a great ride, not a big an emotional impact as. Some of the older games but it was compelling and enjoyable. Just downloaded Stratfield and set up the character, played the first half hour… hoping for those choices to have an impact, but from what I’m reading, is not maybe a good as I was hoping.
Me and my gf have just finished baldurs gate 3. Well, we think we have. It has crashed twice during the cutscene after what we assume is the final boss fight. Bit of a letdown at the end of an otherwise fantastic game. Also played about 10hrs of starfield. It is definitely a bethesda game. I am having fun with it though!
mass effect legendary edition, I was postponing playing it for quite a wile, but Skyrim became to repetitive on last run.
Blacktail, new in library kinda accidental find
Starfield. Kinda. It’s not sucking me in like literally every other Bethesda RPG has. I find myself playing for only like 1-2 hours at a time, and having fun while doing so but also just kinda not sure what I really want to do, because everything I know I want to try is locked behind some high tier skills, so I’m just trying to level up to do that shit and often just wander aimlessly looking for a quest that is more than just under a minute of my time to complete. I’ve done 3 semi-major quest lines so far (UC Vanguard, Freestar Rangers, and Ryujin) and they were pretty short for faction quests.
Diablo 4. Honestly not bad, I kind of get some of the hate, but it’s super early days and as long Blizzard doesn’t turn it into mtx hell, it could go the Eternal Collection route in a few years.
Minecraft Dungeons and Mariokart 8 Deluxe. I was just playing the latter with my mom, and ordered the steering wheel joycon attachments for it which will arrive tomorrow. (Perhaps I could also connect a joycon to my computer and use the Switch wheel to play BeamNG.)
Today I also got a copy of No Mans Sky (basically Space Minecraft) for my switch because I feel it’s better experienced with a hybrid console than with a keyboard and mouse.
Had a few day just doing my other hobby and feels like not wanting to continue where i left off in Project Zomboid, so i downloaded My Time At Portia that i got from Epic for free. So far it feels like MMO where a lot of crafting is behind timer and the majority of the game is having you craft this gather that, and the interface is all very MMO-ey and they did not try to hide it, but i love it! Perfect game for a long day of work where i just want to shut off and enjoy instead of stressing from the intensity of playing video games.
I thought i would drop it quick because it’s a free game, as i drop remnant from the ashes and sonic mania pretty quickly, and i got both for free as well.

Playing Baldur’s Gate 3 and Tarkov, I tried Starfield, but it felt flat and boring and dropped it after a couple of hours. Went back straight to BG3

That sounds like a really rough time split, haha. I’m impressed you’ve found time to sleep between those two

Hey!

Let me know if I can help you somehow :)
Still grinding Tarkov. Trying to see how far I actually get in this wipe.
I finally broke the shackles of Baldurs Gate 3, and now I’m playing… Split screen Baldurs Gate 3 with my wife! It’s genuinely just so good…
Just downloaded Guild Wars 2, never played before but the review from Skill Up convinced me to give it a try ✌️

Curious to see what endgame looks like.
