The first weekly What Are You Playing? thread!
-
Hey everyone! I have no power in here, have not checked if anyone has started one of these but I feel like being the change I want to see in the world.
So! What are you playing this week?
I just started off Claire Obscure Expedition 33, and at the same time, have been getting my girlfriend to slowly wean off of Guilty Gear Strive and try out older fighter games like Guilty Gear XX and a more recent one, BlazBlueCrossTag (both to great success)
Also still haven't beat the first major boss of Nightreign, not looking forward to the trashtalk from friends after the nerf because they did it first

Tried the demo and it hooked me. Great game so far.

Always playing a little Rust here and there, can’t help myself.
Was about to resub to RuneScape after a yearlong break but then I saw Mod Jack got canned. Jagex getting darker every year…

I have a serious deficiencies in emotional games played considering I only acquired such taste playing Honkai star rail penacony a year ago. Or rather arcane s1 tv series before.
Gladly taking the recommendation and open to any other

- Star Citizen (I know I know. I paid like $40 into the Kickstarter years ago and I dip in about once a year or so.)
- Last of Us 2 (again)
- Schedule I on Steam Deck is pretty fun.
I'm also currently gearing up to get horrendously addicted to Rimworld again since there's apparently a new DLC on the way.

I've been playing Blue Prince. It's fun.
wrote on 4 Jun 2025, 22:52 last edited byBlue prince is a DEEP HOLE. Just solved my fourth sigil. It is really relaxing to go in play one day, put it down for a couple of days ruminating on what you learned, then pick it back up and play 2 more days.

Great story, characters, gameplay and music. Easy GOTY.
::: spoiler spoiler
After 5 tries I finally beat Clea. Also why do we have to fight Lampmaster four times?

I've been addicted to Balatro. And Balatro is addicted to me.

Warframe never betrays me
Still waiting on that Terraria update tho
Replaying Dark Souls for the millionth time aswell
Some osu! on the side
wrote on 5 Jun 2025, 03:12 last edited byWarframe is my go-to whenever I don't know what to play. Can always find a mission to jump into or a relic to crack.

I also have a playthrough of Trails in the Sky SC going on and it's so charming. Great turn based combat too.
Aaaand I also tried out Slay the Spire for the first time to kill some time here and there and I have to say this thing should be regulated. So adictive!

wrote on 5 Jun 2025, 06:32 last edited byOh god, what sigils? I don't think I've even gotten to that yet. I've opened up the side yard and the mine, and got 3 of the 4 torches lit. There are so many puzzles! I think it's better to know nothing, though, and discover it along the way.

wrote on 5 Jun 2025, 07:30 last edited by absquatulate@lemmy.world 6 May 2025, 03:40Deliver At All Costs - fun game, but I swear the plot is just an excuse to feature those wonderful destruction mechanics.
Robocop - Actually not bad! I haven"t seen or played anything Robocop related in 30ish years, but I'll be damned if this game doesn't make you feel exactly like him ( for better or worse )
Pacific Drive - finally managed to finish this one after starting and abandoning it twice because it's just terrifying to me. ( I just had to start it again after reading Roadside Picnic and thinking "hey, this reads familiar" ). It's still terrifying, but absolutely great game.
Now I'm playing Kingdoms&Castles and Starbound again to calm the fuck down.
