What have you been playing and what are your thoughts?

It's been a while since I last asked and plenty of games have been released or updated since then. Let's get talking.

For me, the usual Rocket League has been played a lot recently. Especially with the new in-game event going on, the Spike Rush game mode (video) is a huge amount of fun and it's pretty ridiculous. Even the normal game modes continue to keep the game as my #1, it's gotten to the point where I'm attempting all sorts of insane goals. It's still free to try until tomorrow at 5PM UTC with a 50% off sale on Steam.

Plenty more Dota Underlords as well of course, I'm absolutely terrible at it but it's also stupidly engrossing. I like that I can quickly go for a toilet break or to grab a drink when needed, since you don't have to be at your PC during the battles if you have to run for a minute.

Apart from that, Eagle Island continues to pull plenty of my attention. Such a sweet game and really quite a challenge at times. I've especially enjoyed jumping into the Roguelite mode to continue playing after the story is all done.

I also let the mini-me try out Bastion, while it's not a game I personally enjoy as I find the narrator a little irritating, he seems to love it on the more casual game mode and he's getting surprisingly good at it.

Do let everyone know what you've been playing and if it's worth picking up in the comments.

Ark. I can't stop playing Ark. I think a 12 step program is in order.

  • AER Memories of Old - Backlog cleaning. Flying around floating islands on a bit screen is such a magical experience

  • I liked AER quite a bit, although I recall by the end I started to get a bit tired of it.

    Also been playing a little Basingstoke after finally picking it up on Itch, along with Fairy Solitaire. Both pretty good, and Basingstoke really pushes the tension of trying to make your way around a hazardous environment, mostly in the dark.

    Battlefield Bad Company 2. This is the first Battlefield game that I've played and I still think it's one of the best multiplayer FPS. No other game like it. Unfortunately, Punkbuster isn't working properly in Wine, so, sadly, no multiplayer. =(

    Just finished its single player campaign, which I greatly enjoyed again. Now I'll finish the campaign of Medal of Honor (2010) once again, which I also enjoyed playing again.

    Elders Scrolls Online works out of the box with proton in Ubuntu 18.04 too. :)
    Indeed it does, our livestreamer Sin enjoys it rather a lot thanks to Proton.

    I played through Irony Curtain: From Matryoshka with Love. Still not totally sure what to think of it. It is a good point and click adventure, but it's strange to have a funny adventure about "real socialism"...

    BTW, anybody had crashes on saving with this adventure as well?
