Wildmender which I’m sure I got in a humble bundle. Both me and my wife have one. I ran into it as I was browsing my massive steam library for a casual game.
Its an open world sandbox survival. Clean simple graphics. Not really building but I get Don’t Starve vibes but it’s extremely forgiving.
The best part is the survival mechanics. You awaken in a ruined dessert world and work towards restoring it.
You need to stay hydrated and fed. So you need to grow stuff to eat and keep your water bottle topped off.
Its extremely gratifying to start off with just a desert with a small pool of water and end up with an oasis.
You can play solo or up to 4 player online/LAN.
The storyline is pretty good too. Combat is fairly easy but that’s coming from a seasoned gamer. I don’t think I’d die except from fall damage.
I’m replaying Witcher 3 Blood and Wine. I had a completed game save that I jumped into. It only took me an hour or two to get back into the control scheme, which was a pleasant surprise.
Finally started (and finished) Mario Odyssey. Wonder what happened to Nintendo, cuz this game is a pure love letter to Mario fans. Currently doing after game bonus stuff.
I never got to finish FFX and lost my PS2 memory card, but recently got another copy and played a little bit of it earlier this week. So I am excited to some day get back to where I was. I basically got to the level up map thing before turning off for the night.
I am also excited because I’m waiting until I have time this weekend to experience Viva Piñata basically as blind as I can on 360 this weekend since I think the last time I played was a demo from around the time the first version of the 360 came about.
Good luck with your move! We moved, one year, from Vancouver to Ottawa, and for 6 weeks the movers had No Idea where the truck was. It was so stressful!
The mainstream, not the classic, usually horde on Staghelm. I did try Classic a bit, as I missed the challenge, but I had no playmates n classic for a while and when I came back they’d gotten to Cata; and that’s when I noped out.
Witcher 3. Only 15 minutes in and I want to stop playing it already, which is a new record for how quickly I’ve got bored of this game in the half a dozen times I’ve tried to stick with it in the past.
I need to stop listening to people who tell me to give it one more try. I just don’t like this game.
FFTA was the game that got me into trpgs. Absolutely love it. Character progression feels so good and I love the ability to pull a little bit from one job to another via the way the skills system works.
I’ve been playing Tactics Ogre Reborn lately and it certainly has a much better plot, but I’d like it if character growth was closer to FFTA.
I have a lot of opinions about the plot to FFTA though. Marche frankly feels like the villain to me. His stated goal is literally to destroy the world.
Lollipop Chainsaw Repop. It’s very silly and mostly fun, but very button-mashy, I can’t reliably trigger the more lengthy combos, and the cut scenes go on way too long.

I have rebounded in No Man’s Sky again. I have speedrun the expedition 20 event and holy all these new features are so cooooooool.
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided
Cult of the Lamb, it’s well suited to Steam Deck gaming and my desktop is currently in the back of a moving truck

Assetto Corsa
Been driving various racecars on Tail of the Dragon. Good fun.
Some WoW, some Zero-K.
Which version of WoW?
The mainstream, not the classic, usually horde on Staghelm. I did try Classic a bit, as I missed the challenge, but I had no playmates n classic for a while and when I came back they’d gotten to Cata; and that’s when I noped out.
Broke out the GameCube. SSX3 and Double Dash.
Ssx3 is so good, I think it might be a perfect game.

Same. The gameplay is so bad, also the world is just depressing and has annoying monsters everywhere.
There’s gotta be some trick that makes the fighting fun right? I can’t figure this game out either.
Gwent
I don’t know how you would know that after 15 minutes, buy ok…
Why does combat feel so bad in this game at the start?
Still playing Final Fantasy Tactics Advance but it’s becoming a bit of a chore now so Colin McRae Rally 2.0 on PS1 also gets a shout out.

Getting back into overwatch 2 cos they brought back 6v6 open que.
And it’s free, works on Linux without anti-cheat hassles.
