I'm sitting at work, staring at the clock. 40 minutes left until I can go home, then it's probably Satisfactory time again. I played it about a year and a half ago for 45 days, with an average playtime of 9 hours per day (between working a full time job with 13h shifts 4 days a week). Yeah. I probably shouldn't have started again.

Playing Atelier Resleriana: The Red Alchemist & the White Guardian!
Good progress this week, got to Chapter 9 and I'm probably near the end of the game.
One boss mid-game was a huge difficulty spike which forced me to stop and go spend some time optimizing gear/items, but other than that I've been going through the game rather easily.
Hard boss name
Lara & Geron
I'm playing Sulfur, a roguelike shooter with inventory management and weapon modding. The combinations can get pretty wild with attachments, oils and enchantments! You can also change the caliber of a weapon, say make a sniper rifle use shotgun shells that pierce, ricochet and set your target on fire. Dying means losing everything including currently equipped items except when using a pretty expensive insurance for single weapons. It's super fun and I'm pretty addicted to it by now, and i realize i go extra slow because i don't want it to end.
Mostly Monster Hunter Wilds this week. I've been grinding for gold crowns, which I have never done in another game before. I can't explain why I'm doing this, some bug just bit me and made me do it.
In Fallout 3, I've done everything in the metro maze I've been wanting to do for now. I'll still have to go through one soon, but what matters is that I'm back in the actual world!
Speaking of being bitten by weird bugs, I've been wanting to play Mario Kart World again for no apparent reason. I haven't done it yet, but it's on the table...
What are gold crowns? Armour headpiece?
Heh, Mario Kart World isn't bad, though I haven't' played much of it either. I probably haven't even played all tracks yet. Should definitely do that.
Silver and gold crowns are markers for a monster's size. Especially large and small monsters are marked with these crowns in the compendium, which has been a stable in the series for a very long time. It doesn't give you anything except an achievement, but it's also much easier to do in Wilds. Previously, you learned a monster's size after you hunt it. In Wilds you have binoculars that reveal this information beforehand, so you can just quickly check every monster in the area.
It took me like 7 years to get the crowns in World, Rise was much quicker. Sadly I burned out after a couple hundred hours of Wilds, the Gold and Miniature crowns are the only achievements I have left. I jump in once a month or so for a few hunts and don't enjoy myself all that much, hopefully once the expansion drops I can get back into it properly. I love the games so much, I just get to a point where I'd rather do anything than actually go on a hunt.
Doing my 4th playthrough of Resident evil: Requiem, now on Insanity difficulty. Unlocking unlimited ammo is absolutely necessary for this difficulty...at least for me. I'm also trying to complete the "Don't use herbs or med injectors) challenge at the same time; Not sure if that was smart. 😆
Wow, that's some dedication! And those challenges sound really ... challenging 😀. Good luck!
Insanity is basically one-hit death to begin with, so 90% of the time you can't use healing items even if you wanted to. Haha!
More Metroid Prime 4 for me. So far, i think the gme is not that bad, but i can see why people were not happy with a lot of it. Still a fun game for good chunks of my playtime though
I honestly loved Metroid Prime 4. Went through it multiple times to unlock all of the gallery items.
I completely forgot about it. Maybe after Yoshi.
Still playing Arma Refoeger, which I plan to livestream. BI released an experimental 1.7 the other week which has been really fun playing FIA reistance members.
Nice. Where do you stream?
Diablo 2 has kept me on my Switch 1 recently till they made Lords of the Fallen a PS+ Monthly on Tuesday. Im enjoying both.
I grew up on Diablo 1 and 2 but never quite beat 2 as a teenager. My family PC couldn't run it as I recall so it was just a LAN party game for me but I still loved it. Rn im trying to finish Nightmare on a Nova Sorc deep into act 5. The Ancients just embarassing me
"... and so it came to pass that the countess who once bathed in the blood of hundred virgins was burried alive."
Diablo 2 is one of my favourite games. Along with Fallout 2. Don't remember how many times I have played it. The funny thing is, back then I didn't know the concept of New Game+, I was like, "its one of those games that just starts again when you finish it, dunno why they do this". Will then proceed to deleting the character and creating a new one.
Would love to play it again some day.
How's Lords of the Fallen? It has been on my wishlist, and am glad to see it on PS+ Monthly games, will probably get to it soon-ish.
Crazy how comfortable as 20yo game can be isnt it? The new class is pretty fun too. Definitely OP but fun.
LotF is pretty good so far! Im a few hours in and still enjoying it for sure. I keep trying to get my friends to jump on so I can try the co-op but no luck yet. Great atmosphere, solid level design (not quite Bloodborne but still good). Im eager to see some more challenging bosses once ive got more time.
