There are a handful of games out there that have tried to do some aspects of an Elder Scrolls game without doing the other parts badly. Dread Delusion is very much an exploration game, and it excels at that.
Will be posting more details on [email protected]’s next “What are you playing this weekend?” thread tomorrow, but I enjoyed and recommend all three games.
the original half life. I decided to load games onto my deck smallest to largest. Playing ones that held my interest and kicking off others. It can only hold like 3 or 4 latest triple A type games so I figures I would just have like two on their and use the rest of the space to have a greater variety of games.
I’ve got a 3.5 TB hard drive that mostly holds video files and stuff, and there’s at least 1.5TB free at this point. When you’re playing games that predate solid state drives, that may as well be infinite space.
I enjoyed this one a lot, but I eventually got stuck on a yeti boss, and quit.
It felt like his next move was somewhat randomized, and you needed to react in much less than a second to the type of move he was doing. While a lot of bosses develop patterns you can get used to, I couldn’t form any rules in my mind that could account for my reflexes not improving.
The audiobook version made by Soundbooth Theater is no-joke the best produced audiobook series I’ve ever listened to (not the full immersion tunnel or whatever, just the voiced audiobook). Would recommend.
I’ve been playing QTR2 recently, which is a very good way to scratch the itch as well. Hyped to try the new Heretic episode “Faith Renewed” in re-release!
Literally just started that a few minutes ago actually. Really good first impressions. The cats are very realistic. So much so my dogs were having just as much fun as I was watching me play haha.
I have Fallout New Vegas loaded up with the Viva New Vegas modlist, playing as a cowboy with no points put into stealth and going into repair, guns, meele and explosives instead.
It’s a bit harder than normal New Vegas, but so fun and comforting.

Dread Delusion!
The game truly feels like Morrowind at times, like others have said.
I miss games with rich lore like this so much

I’m playing Ex Astris! I can’t believe I slept on this game. It’s so good.
Just finished a play through of Dungeons 3. It’s campy and silly but a really enjoyable campaign.
Finished three games:

Started playing two more today:
First impressions are good but it’s too early to recommend either of these.

Octopath Traveler! Very fun and I love the art style so far
0 A.D.
It’s a free opensource RTS game. It’s hard as hell though.
Death’s Door on switch. It’s a cute little soulslike where you play a crow who reaps souls. It has good gameplay and a nice style.
I really enjoyed this one! I tried Tunic after this it, but could not get into it.

Yeahh always felt like that boss was a major difficulty spike, next two bosses are even harder when in comparison the past bosses were cakewalks 🫤
Ocarina of Time Master Quest on PSVita Death Stranding 1 on PC Valorant BF6 beta but admittedly I don’t like the game anymore sadly :(
Haven’t really had anything I’ve enjoyed lately, but I am ready an exceedingly good video game-esque novel. It’s called ‘Dungeon Crawler Carl’.
That’s a great read. I finished the most recent book a few months back. Just yesterday I started listening to the audiobook version haha.

Played the Heretic remake. Pretty fun to come back to that one after 30 years. 😂
I might try Hexen next, I hear they made it much better, but the original wasn’t great at all.

I finally picked up Stray!
Literally just started that a few minutes ago actually. Really good first impressions. The cats are very realistic. So much so my dogs were having just as much fun as I was watching me play haha.
Have fun! I just finished it today. It’s a great game.
Meow !

I never felt like buying this full price, but this just reminded me to reserve it at my library for a borrow. Thanks.
Me neither. It went on sale recently for 18 bucks and I missed it by a few hours. It went back on sale today and I grabbed it. Haha.
I have Fallout New Vegas loaded up with the Viva New Vegas modlist, playing as a cowboy with no points put into stealth and going into repair, guns, meele and explosives instead. It’s a bit harder than normal New Vegas, but so fun and comforting.
caves of Qud
Random URF is back in league, so probably that. Maybe Rivals
