Weekly “What have you been playing?” Thread #new one

Been playing Crying Suns. This game feels like If FTL: Faster Than Light had listened to too much MCR in high school. It’s good, but you can see it’s maybe too inspired by other things, even if it’s fun. Also GDQ has been pretty bad. A few decent runs.

Carp buckbroke me into trying out No Man’s Sky :marseyastronaut2:

Actually, just playing it in preparation for Starfield :likeaboss:

Also, finally checked out Deathloop

Despite it being another aesthetically pleasing Arkane game, its core gameplay loop :marseysting: is just a gimmick that quickly wears thin because it is a “Covid Game”, which means the devs did the bare minimum effort when it came to designing the locations and the way they change during the day.

The AI is so bad that the only real challenge is the other player who can at least plan an ambush (although most just camp out on the rooftops and farm headshots) :!marseycarpsnipe:

The characters are weird and overly quippy. Some are clear retreads of Arkane’s previous work, which makes me question whether they actually wanted to make this game or were they just forced by Zenimax to make an online PvP game in their signature imm-sim style. The locations are designed more like arenas than actual levels you should tread through. I think making an online version of that combat mode from Dunwall Trials might have been a better solution.
