Video games: What're You Playing?

Aug 9, 2018

    1. That is next on my list thank you I have heard a lot of good things about it,
       
    2. I've been playing a lot of M:tG Arena lately, it's been nice to get back into the game as I played competitively for years in person but the cost, time commitment, and lack of good local shops made it less accessible. Still waiting for the new Animal Crossing on Switch so I can spend endless hours on that.
       
    3. Just started up Pokemon let’s go Eevee despite the fact that I have a huge backlog of jrpg games and visual novels. I finished kh3 a few days ago and actually felt the ending was fitting and wish that it was the last one. I kinda feel like nomura just needs to stop milking kh...But playing let’s go Eevee is making me want to pick up heart gold and platinum again. D:
       
    4. Trying to finish up God of War so I can start Red Dead Redemption 2.
       
    5. I've been playing an awful lot of hollow knight. I have fallen in love with the dark and gothic atmosphere and adorable character designs. I am super psyched for the upcoming sequel and am seriously debating on making a hornet doll. Not a bjd of course, I don't have the budget for that, but maybe customizing a monster high or making my own figure out of sculptey.

      Either way. It's been a blast.

    6. Currently I can't put Rocket League down
       
    7. Main two things: Nier: Automata and Risk of Rain 2.
      Both are action and sci-fi... and RoR2 is an indie roguelike with shooter qualities that I cannot promote enough. It's so goood.

      OH! And replaying Diablo 3 a ton because I've always adored the series since it came out!
       
    8. I’m playing Ai: The Somnium Files. So far it’s a really great game, although it’s a little bit too inappropriate for my tastes. But the actual gameplay puzzle portions are excellent.

      I love Mizuki’s jacket... I kind of want one like that for my new MSD!
       
    9. I forgot about playing games for about a year and am now back full force. I just recently started Detective Pikachu, Pokemon Ultra Sun, and Mario Cart 7 all on DS. Maybe someday I can get a Nintendo Switch and get some of the awesome games that have been released. They look like a lot of fun!
       
    10. right now:

      Pokemon shield on Nintendo switch
      and death stranding on Playstation

      probably gonna restart skyrim in switch during the holidays
       
    11. I'm still happily playing around with the reincarnation of City of Heroes. ^_^

    12. I keep replaying Fallout 3 over and over recently and my other favorite game Bully Scholarship Edition. For some reason I always return to those games. I wanted to play Fallout 2 this evening but it doesn’t work properly on my computer lol
       
    13. I've been skipping between Warframe, Death Stranding and Pokemom Sword. Probably going to get back into Diablo 3 long enough to smash through the season for the cosmetics and then back to the usual cycle. XD
       
    14. I'm nearly to the end of the main story line in Pokemon Shield. Finally going to be able to find a Sableye!
       
    15. It's not really a video game, but I finally got a smart phone in May and I am neck deep into Pokemon Go! I love it so much! I've been a ,long time Pokemon fan and I've been dying to play since the game was announced.
       
    16. Atm:
      Pokemon sword on Nintendo switch
      Fire Emblem Three House on Nintendo switch
       
    17. Just finished Pokémon X on 2ds. I started the game way back in December of 2014, and uh, remembered I had never finished it. :sweat
       
    18. Stardew Valley and Sims 4. I have a backlog of games to start/finish but I always comeback to these two games. They’re both easy to pick up and play. And since they both have minimal/no plot you don’t have to worry about not remembering your progress.

      Also excited about the new Animal Crossing!
       
    19. @LaCantarella a new Animal Crossing?! I will definitely check it out! Love the game!
       
    20. Yeah! Animal Crossing New Horizons! It’s releasing on the 20th of March. It’s on the Nintendo Switch though. First time I played Animal Crossing was New Leaf an I got seriously addicted.
       
    21. @LaCantarella I really like new leaf too. I guess this new version will finally force me to get a switch. I’ve been putting it off, but new horizons looks awesome.
       
    22. I got to join the stress test for Temtem yesterday; I'm very excited for early access to be released. I haven't played an MMO in years, and this games seems promising.
       
    23. That Pokemon-like game? I saw the trailer and it looks pretty cute. I’m not really into MMOs but I kinda want to try it.
       
    24. That's the one! Early access is going to be this week. I'm really loving the 2 on 2 battle style.
       
    25. I'm playing Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth/Hacker's Memory for the Switch right now. I've put over 120 hours into the game, which includes beating the first game and getting to Chapter 8 out of I think 17 in the second game? I must say, for someone who's been burnt out on Pokemon since X/Y this is an amazing, AMAZING outlet for my monster-catching-and-raising cravings.
       
    26. Right now mostly NiER: Automata, FFXIV, and ESO.
      Fixing to start Bloodstained.
       
    27. I am currently playing the witcher 3 im about 30hours in and i am 125 hours into stardew valley both on switch :)
       
    28. Right now I'm on NG+3 of Darksouls III. Trying to Platinum it on PS4 and realized I missed two relatively simple achievements multiple times... I've also been on and off with The Sims 4.
       
    29. Have you seen the Animal Crossing ver Switch? It’s really cute!
      [​IMG]
       
    30. :love
      Yes! I love it so much im actually considering selling my switch so i can buy this one instead :love:love:love
       
    31. Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot! Getting to do side quests with kid Gohan in his bowl cut hairdo is everything ❤️
       
    32. @LaCantarella no, I had not seen it! I love the colors! OK, time to get serious about saving.....
       
    33. Stardew Valley, my one true love :chibi

      I've been trying to perfect my solutions on a really cute puzzle game, A Good Snowman is Hard to Build. It's like a Sokoban-style game where you can only push stuff, not pull, to get them in the right area. Except you're rolling snowballs to build a snowman and need to make them the right size and stack them in the right order. It's pretty quick to beat the first time, but then you unlock the variants of each level! Also you can hug your snowmen in that game, so. Game of the year right there.
       
    34. I took a long hiatus from playing video games due to some mental health and financial reasons. Just started getting back into gaming, and my current gaming obsession is Star Wars: The Old Republic (SWTOR). Happened to catch a streamer I follow on Twitch playing it, and got into it from there. I've also always been a fan of the Star Wars universe (and the opportunity to play a jedi character, yay!), so I've been having a blast getting immersed in it over the past several months.
       
    35. I'm a really casual "gamer", but I am rather fond of Pokémon Shield which I received for Christmas. I've also played Stardew Valley a lot - great game.
       
    36. I made my dolls in The Sims. It's kind of funny watching them grow up - the MSDs have become SDs ;)
       
    37. That is such a cute idea!!!
       
    38. I started playing Graveyard Keeper
      But I'm so excited for Animal Crossing because I know that will take over my life once it comes out
       
    39. My husband just finished Graveyard Keeper and I'm considering it too, but I'm also wanting the new Animal Crossing and still haven't finished pokemon Shield, so I'll probably hold out until later this year.
       
    40. Ooh yeah i know im the same new leaf took over my life when it came out so i am hoping new horrisons will do the same
       
    41. I just discovered there was a professor Layton game in the series I hadn’t played yet.
       
    42. I've been obsessively playing Moonlighter, it's got a decent grind and it's pretty cute. The green, blobby aesthetic is so pleasing.
       
    43. I’m so excited about the new Animal Crossing! I just pre ordered the game and was gifted money to buy the Switch. :XD:

    44. I have a switch and exactly one game so AC definitely has to join... I’ve been playing Black Desert Online as far as games go
       
    45. Just got started on playing my copy of Tokyo Chonos, a VR virtual novel game. The VR aspect is really interesting but I think it made the. characters look a little awkward. l am enjoying the story so far though.

    46. Not much new stufff on the play front for me... however I have just downloaded kingdom hearts on my Xbox and have started playing it again... absolutely adore these game’s :)
       
    47. My current obsession is Death Stranding, even that FFXV stills lives in mi console since last year when I played for the first time, so those two are my ongoing games. I'm reaaally looking forward to Animal Crossing and my husband is playing Link's Awakening in the switch. Sometimes I give it a go because I love to see that game with those cute graphics as brings good memories.
       
    48. I got my Switch and have been playing Mario Cart 8 Deluxe. Had to have something to play on it, lol. Balloon Battle all the way!
       
    49. I had the chance to play Heave Ho over the weekend with friends. It was great to play something cooperative and just so silly.
       
    50. Games in my current rotation are Black Desert Online, Elder Scrolls Online and My Time in Portia. What I play really depends on my mood and how much time I have.
       
    51. League of Legends!!! For all the flack that the game and its community (sometimes deservedly) get, I have friends that I play with and we have a ton of fun in League. <3 One of my favorite characters is the demoness Evelynn, to the point where I'm even considering shelling her as a character. What can I say, I just really like her :D
       
    52. Since I'm restricted to mobile gaming at the moment it's just some casual Dragon Raja here and there. I'm still getting into it and everything seems so complicated, haha~

      I might get the new Animal Crossing title for my Switch soon. It seemed fun and casual enough.

    53. I was not allowed video games when I lived with my parents (I only had Sims 2 on a laptop that took half an hour to load the game and my mom even told me off if I told her I killed my sims, but I didn't know better and I just kept removing the pool ladder in secret). I grew up listening to my parents and thinking gaming was for losers, and then I met my man, who has a PS4. I started by looking at RDR2 as he played, then I wanted to give it a try. It took a while to take control of the control (especially the sticks) and not die at every ambush, or straight out beat someone when I meant to greet in a verbally nasty way. Yes, I had trouble with the art of remembering to press L2 to open the interaction menu before hitting that circle. In the beginning I would just throw the controller to my man every time a NPC just looked at me the wrong way, and for a long time I was literally more likely to kill an enemy by running at them and slapping them in the face with my pistol than actually hitting them while shooting. And I don't even start about the trees and the horse. We held a funeral to honor my first one.

      I became a great fan of free roam games, especially RDR2 which was the first game I played through on my own. I even took that to 100% completion all by myself and learned on the internet to play poker in order to get that. I still don't like multiplayer or online games probably because I feel so self-conscious about my newbie level skills, but I like playing at my own pace. I also loved Detroit and wish to play through more "playable movies". I like watching my man play God of War, but my own skills are not enough for the combos you need in battles, and the game is 90% battles.

      By the way, my parents gave up on that ridiculous demonisation of video games a few years back, since I also taught my sister to play. My 13-year old sister is now a beginner youtuber who streams about games, and she has over a million views.
       
    54. Bout two weeks ago I started playing ffxiv. Oddly it was my one doll friend who got me into it. Its super fun, and relatively easy to get through. My only complaint is the targetting system. I based my character on my main doll, so itd be kinda pointless to make another doll based on her. That said i do really want to make my girl a few of the outfits i have in game.
       
    55. i restarted breath of the wild recently and i'm completely sucked in again lol once the new animal crossing is out its over TBH thats all im gonna be able to care about for like a month
       
    56. I'm playing Rocket League & Skyrim at the mo, can't wait for Animal Crossing though!!!
       
    57. Hubs and I have picked Stardew Valley back up! I love that game so much. And he just found me another game that I'll be puchasing today... I don't remember the name though, but it's kind of like a video game version of the Where's Waldo concept and you can make your own scenes and it just seems like my kind of game.
       
    58. The Elder Scrolls Online. And just can't stop and delete this timekiller.
