Wheter I want to experiment around with Redstone contraptions ina Test world, Try to once again beat the game in Hardcore, just play regular Survival or play modded, If I'm bored I can always find something to do.
And ther eis even a possibility to play with other people or friends on a Server.
Of course, with playing Hardcore, there might always be a scenario where you're close to reaching the end and then you die, because of a creeper you didn't see, which can be frustrating, but nothing I can't get over.

I loved Breath of the Wild and when I learned there was a sequel in development (back then all we knew was based on the first ever trailer, we didn't even know the name), I was exited. The more we learned about the game, the more exited I got.
And all that Hype was worth it, the game is now in my top 3 favorite games (alongside BOTW and Elden Ring).

Disfigure:
A free Horde survival on Steam, that is actually quite fun. I haven't won a run yet, but I do tend to go back everyday for a run or two. The gameplay isn't the most interesting, but it's pretty simple fun - you just gotta aim where the enemies are, if you see them (otherwise aim.in a direction and hope you him something). What do I mean by "if you see them"? Well you have a vision circle around you and you can only see enemies in that (unless you damage them, then they flash up for a few frames). There is upgrades to increase or decrease the size of it and other upgrades with effects affecting enemies in or outside of the circle. And it doesn't even have in-game purchases. If you want to support the Dev(s), you can buy the ""DLC"" on steam for that.Nimrods:
Another Hordesurvival, this time sadly not free. You play a "Nimrod" (Basically just the characters of the game) and explore a world for upgrades and resources, while trying to survive endless hordes of enemies. The resources you gather can then be used to actually unlock the upgrades you find on the map, once you are back at base (where you go to when you fail at the "surviving" part or when you win). When your run ends (for whatever reason) your weapon will get brought back to base and you can give it to your drone, that'll follow you around and use the gun you gave it (but it still has to level it up over time, as it won't start at full power). There is currently 3 characters that all have thier strenghts and weaknesses, two of which you ha e to unlock. And levelling up, doesn't just give you the upgrade, they drop a pod into the battle field, that you have to collect. It can evem crush enemies (there is a steam achievement for that happening 100 times in a mission). The gameplay is similar to Disfigures, but you can actually see the enemies.Lords of the Fallen:
A soulslike that kind of reminds me of a combination of Darksouls 1 and 3 with dual wielding (powerstancing) and the Sekiro parry. It also has that Umbral lantern, which is one of my favorite festures of the game. It's just such a cool idea, even though I tend to forget to use it. The lantern can bring you into an Umbral world, where there might be paths that aren't there in the normal world. The bosses weren't all that challenging so far, with the exception of the boss required to reach the hub and the boss required to get into the Ice area. But I'm having fun with it, even if I tend to get lost or not find where I am supposed to go.I can say, I enjoy all three of these games and can recommend them to people that enjoy thier respective Genres. I enjoy both Horde survivals and Souls likes.

I have a wierd thing, where I want to finish every Fromsoft souls game I play at least once with the Moonlight Greatsword. So, when I arrived at Seeth the Scaleless, I obviously tried my best to cut his tail and get the sword (I knew how to get it from various challenge runs I watched). But I didn't manage to. I tried over and over again, but couldn't cut the tail. Eventually I just lost motivation to play the game.
I even thought about asking someone to drop me the weapon.
Anyways, if anyone has tips on how to get that thing, please let me know.

Almost got all the Achievements for that game, only missing 4 (one of which is the "Get all achievements" achievement, so in a way only 3).
It's been really fun, even with Randoms. I do enjoy the gameplay loop, though I wouldn't mind a bit more variety with points of interest on the map.
My favorite Characters so far are the Recluse, because I enjoy being a mage and the Ironeye, because I like Archers. I did get a win with each of the characters though.
I've also gone back to normal Elden Ring, doing a run inspired by the Recluse. Going Int/Fth and only using Scorceries and Incantations. It's been somehwat challenging to be honest. I'm used to having some form of meele weapon, even as a mage, just in case I run out of FP, but not this time. I got through Stormveil just fine, by just subjecting everything to Carian Slicer until it fell over. Didn't do that for Raya Lucaria, because everything there is Magic resistant, but in the end, Lightning spear and Discus of Light did the job. Well I did have to pull out my spear to finish of Renalla, because I ran out of FP and didn't want to restart.

I probably have a bit more time than most others here, but I still don't really have time under the week (mon - fri). On weekends I'm usually free though.
Also I hope I'm not too late.

Completed Fires of Ariandel (except for the Friede fight, from what I've seen and heard it's pretty difficult, so I'm scared) and have started the Ringed city. Made it to the Demon price fight and got my ass kicked. First phase is manageable without using too many heals, thanks tot he help of Gael and Lapp, second phase not so much. Got it down below half health multiple times though, so If I try a bit more, I might be able to do it.
It's pretty fun so far. I love DS3 and these DLCs feel like a great addition. I'm obviously not going in blind, as I have seen the bosses in various Challenge runs I've seen on YT, but going in blind wasn't one of my concerns, as I am mainly here for the combat and the bosses (and to have an excuse to play more DS3).
Weapon-wise I've also found some cool stuff, like the weapons of those big Viking-Knights in Ariandel or the halberd (that's called a Greatsword for some reason) the Trader at the beginning of Drang Heap sells. My favorite so far is the Millwood Battle Axe, because of its weapon art. It might seem like a normal war cry at first, but when you actually do it, it's way better than that. Instead of the normal "HOOAAHH!!" you do two little hops forward into a "HUUAAHH!". Other than that it is the same though.

I'm having a bit of trouble with groups and the Bosses at the end of each chapter, but Nothing i couldn't get through so far. I did have to change the Difficulty from medium/normal to easy on the third boss though. The game doesn't take it self to seriously, which i really like.

I created it forever ago as a mix of the names of two youtubers I liked watching (neither of which i watch today) and a random number. And the most random number I could come up with was 28. And i just stuck with it.
There might be better ones, but i'm happy with it.

There is only very rare situations which lead to me abandoning a Game, for example the Game frustrating me too much or me simply not enjoying the Game. I also only rarely buy Games and if i do, it's mostly some Indie Rouge-likes, where "completing" is often just unlocking everything, which either doesn't take too long or forever (looking at you Binding of Isaac).

Link started a falling Animation and suddenly i was out of bounds. I even found a sword there and was confused for a second, until i realized it was the sword from the Lizalfos i killed right before that. And while exploring down there Link suddenly started to float up, because there was Water there. I've also tried to get in bounds again, but couldn't figure out how. i think i just ended up teleporting out.
I've picked up **DRG Survivors ** recently, a horde survivor from the Devs of Deep Rock Galactic.
Essentially you fight of horde of Gyphids while mining through Rocks and collecting minerals, just like in normal DRG, but from a top down perspective and solo only. But there seems to be less objectives, as I've only had extreminations so far.
It's quite fun. I really like that you don't need to kill the final boss of a stage to progress, as every stage has 3 objectives and completing 2 of them is enough to unlock the next one - at least that's how it has been for haz 1. There is also a few weapons that aren't in DRG which is pretty cool.
You can also get it cheaper if you already own DRG (because of some stuff with bundles o Steam). It was on sale for 9€ when I got it, but I only payed like 6.30€ because I own DRG.
