What games have you been playing, and what's your opinion on them?
What have you been playing lately? Discussion about video games and board games are both welcome. Please don't just make a list of titles, give some thoughts about the game(s) as well.
Lately I find myself continually playing more demos for games rather than making any progress on any games I’m in the middle of, which I have slightly mixed feelings about (but not enough to do anything different). Doesn’t help that I can’t resist roguelite games and that’s currently a popular genre, so there’s an endless supply of demos showing up. Super Fantasy Kingdom, Clover Pit, Ball x Pit, Raccoin, Skull Hoard, etc… so many recently played demos that I’m now forced to wait for, so sad. I’m thankful that releasing demos has become more popular again in recent years, or at least it feels that way to me, maybe I wasn’t paying enough attention before
Helldivers 2 released for Xbox last week along with the ODST crossover warbond, and we have finally ended the console wars. Very wholesome vibes all around with PC and PS5 veterans welcoming the new divers with open arms, and it's great to see them discover things for the first time. They've also reinvigorated the community, just in time for the next major update happening tomorrow, Into the Unjust, where there will definitely be way too much "Rock and Stone" being spammed in game chat as we take the fight against the Terminid menace underground. For Super Earth!
