Weekly "What are you playing thread?" #37

Introduction

Yeah, I know this isn't my weekly thread and thread hijacking will not be tolerated but who cares. Before you ask where @loli_esports is he has recently posted a picture of Frieren with a white monster and the caption "alcoholic anime girl save me save me alcoholic anime girl" so he's doing great. The threads will be now under new management with less fun but more autism I hope you'll love it :marseyshy3:

I'm planning on dropping them each Sunday at 4-6pm CET but if someone in a more popular (=better) time zone wants to do it feel free to just do it lol.

Furthermore, I'll randomly pick a popular game and let drama users rank it and discuss it in the pinned comment. I think this is a good idea and if you disagree I'll be sad.

This week's entry will be HADES

A rogue-lite hack and slash dungeon crawler in which Zagreus, son of Hades the Greek god of the dead, attempts to escape his home and his oppressive father by fighting the souls of the dead through the various layers of the ever-shifting underworld, while getting to know and forging relationships with its inhabitants.

I have jumped back into Control. Goddam it's good. Gameplay really hits the spot and blasting foes feels impactful. I love the brutalist design of the Oldest House and the SCP inspired story is just :marseychefkiss: Remedy is beyond based

I dunno if I'm r-slurred but I just couldn't beat the first boss the dude that floats around in the stairwell. I tried a hundred times I must've missed something important.

I replayed Control in my Remedy marathon before Alan Wake 2's release and it really is just a great game, the visual design of the entire experience is so artful and intentional, and the way the story is crafted and communicated is :marseynut:, not to mention how it ties in to the other Remedy games. It's very nice to play triple A games made by devs who actually care lmao

I've recently played this too and liked it a lot. The side content is a bit whatever and at some places the story felt too arbitrary yet contrived, but I've also really enjoyed it.

this game goes on sale a lot, and i get tempted, but most reviews i've read said it's only a ~10hr experience which puts me off. is it really that short?

Nah closer to 15-20, maybe even longer depending on how quickly you learn to navigate the Oldest House. There's also two DLCs that'll add 10hrs to your playthrough.
