Played quite a bit of Donkey Kong Bananza, have reached the Feast layer, though I did miss a few things in previous layer so will go back to it later to collect everything.

This should be very near to the end, as the whole skill tree has been unlocked, and how the story is progressing. Not going to rush though, going to play at my own pace, collecting everything before moving forward.


Played a little Judgment, not much to add here. Will fully focus on it after finishing Bananza and AI: The Somnium Files.


Finished the next two routes in AI: The Somnium Files.

Apparently my first playthrough ended in what is probably "true ending route" (I am assuming), as you need to complete the other 3, Red, Yellow and Blue route before you can continue that.

I have finished Yellow and Red route, now to the Blue Route, which I am guessing is going to be pretty long, since it diverges on Day 2, while others do on Day 3 or 4.

It was interesting to see some more info about people and what's happening, but there are still so many questions. Hopefully everything will be clear by the time I finish it.


I mentioned Diablo IV a few weeks back, but we are almost at the end. Just play it with friends, one night a week, but since we are mainly sticking with the main campaign, our progress isn't that slow. Plan is to finish the game this weekend.

The game is fun, but I miss the Diablo II skill tree, that was much better than what we have now, IMO.

I'll probably stop playing after that, but I do plan to return to it later, to play solo with other characters and do all the side stuff.

What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?

I enjoyed Veilguard, played more than half of it before dropping it. It's a pretty good game. Not a great game, but not bad either. Would love to hear your thoughts when you have finished it.

Moss games are very high on list for whenever I get VR, was planning for PSVR 2, but was recommended not to buy that (since Sony has mostly dropped it's support, like they did with Vita 😢 ). May get Meta Quest, there are rumours of a significant upgrade for next version, which is rumoured to be coming out next year.

Yeah Veilguard is just a fun romp. Nothing too deep or meaningful, but just sort of a fun well paced refuge from everyday life.

There's still a pretty good pipeline of games for PSVR2. Not sure how long it will last, but for now my biggest issue is waiting for prices to come down on some of those titles rather than the lack of titles I want to play.

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (6 children)

Yeah, we are getting many third party games, but sad to see Sony giving up on it themselves. And most of these games are available on Meta Quest too, plus many that aren't available on PS VR2, though don't know if that has changed lately.

I like PlayStation, but Sony is pretty bad when it comes to supporting there non-primary console.

[–] realitista@piefed.world 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Yeah there should really be more first party games for it. Unfortunately it was probably doomed to some extent from the start due to the price. It's very hard to compete against quest's subsidized pricing and scale, and I guess most people don't care too much about having higher quality games.

Probably it's the last VR headset I will buy until someone figures out how to bring PSVR2 or higher graphical fidelity without buying a whole gaming PC and covert a large portion of standard AAA games to VR. Quest isn't good enough and PSVR2 won't get enough support.

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That is why first party support matters, if Sony has stuck with it many more people (like me) would have eventually bought it. This is same as Vita, if it doesn't outright sells millions, they lose interest.

The rumours about the next Meta Quest are pretty good, so it might be worth keeping an eye on.

[–] realitista@piefed.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah it's true. I'm not sure I will be interested in another quest unless they can get PSVR2 level graphics, ie with some kind of external console. I think Valve may be more likely to be the first to pull this off but the price will probably be higher than I'm willing to pay.

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 1 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, it will be my first foray into VR so I am not too picky. As long as it's fun and doesn't feel bad, I am happy.

I am not a fan of Meta as a company, but this seems to be the only viable option, that will also be supported for a while.

Let's see. It's not really a must have, but something I would like to have.

[–] realitista@piefed.world 2 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Quest is definitely a great first intro. You will have lots of fun with it. I outgrew it unfortunately, but it's still a great platform despite Meta digging its tendrils into it.

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 1 points 8 hours ago

Well, there's still time. Let's see what they actually announce and what's the price point.
