Title: What are you playing this weekend and through next week? (June 20th)
Liam Squires-Hand 1 hour ago
Hello GamingOnLinux Forum community! It's time to open up the floor to you once again! What are you going to be playing across this weekend and into next week?

For me - I'm still hooked right into Overwatch, thoroughly enjoying the update with the speedy new hero but it's going to take something truly special to tear me away from Sierra (my love!).

Aside from that, I also plan to dive some more into Sublight that I wrote about recently, because I love vampire survivors style space combat so much.

Probably some Path of Exile 2 as well. I wanted to jump back into Diablo 4, after being away since forever - but the new player experience in Diablo 4 just seems to be thoroughly atrocious. I deleted all characters, made a brand new one, and it dumped me into some random town without telling me what to do. Awful.

I got a couple of games on a whim, even though my backlog is both long, and feels like high quality. But managed to get in a couple of hours today, and hope more the rest of the weekend.

Stray - positive suprise how well it runs on Proton, as I held back for a while, wanting to support games with 1st class Linux support rather than emulation. But it sucked me in for an hour right away, until I had to take a break. Might make me really get a game controller, though usually I am an old school keyboard/mouse person. And since I have cats, this feels like a bit of learning experience too besides gaming 😅

Book of Hours - I am a fan of Cultist Simulator, and this game from the team feels like a gorgeous, atmospheric, less occult and more whimsical, a bit less stressful but just as complex take on similar mechanics. At least so far. It feels relaxing and scratches an interesting narrative itch. I can see it will take me quite a lot longer than the hour I had at hand.

The Red Strings Club - came & stayed for the cyberpunk and pixels. Some of it feels awkward so far (in dialogue and mechanics), but got a little taste that this is good, settle in for more.

Nine Sols - this I just fired up, as on my XFCE + AMD GPU Framework 13 system, something doesn't quite match up, the XFCE panel and shortcuts were just glitching into the game's full screen view. I am looking forward to this game too (played others from the same team), so wanna fix this up before actually trying it out; so today it was just a 1 minute smoke test...

It's a bit of a sampling weekend, seeing what to dive in more. Mini Mini Golf Golf and Sunless Skies are very much waiting on the sidelines, that I wanna start again, after a few months of hiatus, rather than just continue from a state of the story that I no longer remember...

Still gonna keep at it with the DiRT Rally 2.0 daily races, starting to get into Test Drive Unlimited (the original, not Solar Crown) after it's been collecting dust on my shelf since 2012 (when my library got rid of their video game collection, got so many games for half a Euro each).

Last weekend I played through two of the Wrath of the Righteous DLCs (Through the Ashes and Lord of Nothing (I think? The ice one)). Unfortunately that kinda sated me on Pathfinder so I'm probably not gonna play through the main game any time soon (even though I played through those DLCs in preparation of a Trickster playthrough... oh well). The weekend before that I played through Oni with the Anniversary Edition mod in preparation of Joshimuz' attempt at it for the Rockstar Games' Games Marathon. Installing it was a pain with me needing to somehow get a 32-bit build of Wine which wasn't going well trying to build it myself because things wouldn't run under WoW64. Eventually I managed it with PlayOnLinux.
