    Almost everyone on Lemmy are huge nerds (me included) and are too busy playing Factorio to post replies to your question. THE FACTORY MUST GROW

    Can’t stop playing Balatro since picking it up. There’s so many achievements to do. Even finished Jokerless challenge, took about month.

    Otherwise Factorio, of course.

      I like chess, but I can’t think that fast. At that speed, I can only do !anarchychess@sopuli.xyz : push pawns, fork things with knights, always take en passant, and try not to blunder away the queen.

    AC Valhalla. I’ve recently finished odyssey and I wanted to play another “turn off the brain checklist open world game”

    It’s very rough around the edges (bugs, clipping, clunky movement) and it got me frustrated time and time again, but the thing I’m disliking the most are the frequent and mandatory raids. If I wanted a full fledged action game I’d be playing wukong or some shit.

    Enabling insta-kill assassination from the accessibility options is what’s been saving the game for me.

    I’m also considering about lowering the difficulty. The second hardest one is making the enemies unreasonably tanky, which does not bode well with the shittiest healing system I have ever seen in a videogame.

    Puzzling Places has been an unexpected joy after I got it in a bundle with Tetris Effect.

      Same! I finally “beat” satisfactory by delivering all the project parts. In early access I unlocked all milestones but never delivered the final project part.

      Starting space age, only got up to automating green science, working on military science now. Probably won’t be able to play much this week though.

    Just started Baldur’s Gate 3. Never played a CRPG before (does Disco Elysium count?) so it has been quite the learning curve for combat. Pretty stuck in the Underdark, it seems. Looks like I’ll have to help out a slavetrader Gekh in order to proceed because I don’t think I can defeat him and his buddies…

      I hope that you’re having so much fun with BG3, after I finished it’s definitely one of my favorites. The underdark is tough, I wish you good luck.

        I’ll add another one: get to them from the miconids village, do not engage them from the lower ground by the lake.

        Once you’re done that, destroy the stairs first and push them down afterwards. You won’t believe how easy this fight gets.

        Or you know, you could always lower the difficulty. No shame in doing so

      Completely agree. It’s utterly addictive, and the further you get, more and more fun tech gets unlocked. Been playing it with some friends, and we’re all hooked.

      I always describe satisfactory as subnautica but about automating machinery like a tycoon game but with more reminiscent of portal. Needless to say its really fun!

      I’ve played a bit of Factorio and enjoyed it a little too much, but watching some video clips of Satisfactory a couple of years ago really didn’t grab me. Do you think it’s likely that either watching the game have a very poor sense of what it’s like (for someone already familiar with Factorio), or that the game has gotten a whole heap better over the last 2ish years?

        Hmmmm, good question, bit of both, it has changed a lot, but there is also heavy focus on the building mechanics also if that’s your thing, rather than just straight up automation. So like you can make some very very impressive structures in the game. Saying that, you can mostly ignore the building for pretty and just go full on factory just grow mode.

        I guess also depends how much you like/are comfortable with the fps view point vs top down? If you like automation and or crafting games, def worth giving it Whirl IMHO!

    Like a lot of people, Factorio and Satisfactory. Been also playing a bit of Binding of Isaac and DRG. Also watching a friend play Morrowind because I love that game souch
