Happy new year guys!😀 Just now, it hit midnight here, and it’s officially 2025. I was playing Pennon and Battle, and I realized it’s the last game I played in 2024!! That gave it a different kind of meaning. Now I’m curious, what was the last game you played in 2024?
- Balatro. - Wife was sick and in bed early, so I rang in the new year with Balatro! It was my last of 24 and first of 25. 
- Anyone else feel like this is just a gateway drug to gambling addiction? 
 
- Breath of the Wild. Enjoying it so far 
- Slay The Spire - finally beat the heart. 
- S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2 - Same. Quick review: it’s so much like the old game that I’m fucking loving it 
 
- outer wilds - That game made my head hurt but I so wish I could play it again for the first time. It was so fun 
 
- Skyrim… First try with adamant perks. - Why do people still play this game?? - Why not ? There is so much mods that you can play new adventures, with the feeling of being at home. - The base game is full of flaws, but the community makes it really enjoyable. - The balance of skills, the graphics, even the story can be changed. That’s why I like to play it again and again. I can play a Skyrim that people built. And with the perks mod, I can build so much differents characters, I really love that. - And with skyblivion coming this year, I’m not even close to stop playing it. 
- its the potato chips of video games. You can even add your own flavors 
- Skyrim is a great game, what are you on about? 
- Why not? If they enjoy it, more power to them. - There’s no law that says you can’t replay games you’ve enjoyed. 
 
 
- I just stole someone’s sweet role. - Roll? Or is this some kind of lie I’m not Khajiit enough to understand? - Roal, role, roll, maters not to this one. If you need words ask the Telvanni, if you need maids seek the Argonian, if you desire paths follow the moon. 
 
 
- Phantasy Star Online on the GameCube. And I was actually online. Crazy huh. 
- Helldivers 2 
- Jackbox! 
- Factorio : Space Age 
- Stellaris. As a hyper-aggressive, warmongering, Rome-obsessed species of lovebirds. All the organic aliens have been turned into GMO livestock and all the machine aliens have been forced into slavery. I bomb the planets into oblivion not because I need to, but because I imagine my pretty birds would enjoy doing it. 
- Dragon Age: Origins. Never got around to finishing it before. - This is my last one, too. First time playing it, about 30 hours in now. Planning to play through all the older DA games before doing another playthrough of Veilguard. - Nice! I started it 3 or 4 times but got distracted. Having a much easier time staying focused now, so I’m playing through Ultimate Edition. I don’t plan on doing the rest, though - will go to Baldur’s Gate 3 after this one. 
 
 
- Cat Quest 3 on the Switch with my wife - Oh, I didn’t even realize it’s already out! 
- That sounds very cute 
- Is that the pirate cat game? That was a fun game. I love puns and cats, so I’m very biased. - Yep! 
 
 
- Baldurs Gate 3 split screen with my wife. - BG3 has a split screen!? - I have heard it doesn’t run quite well on PS5… Now I wonder if this mode is available there and if it is better or worse lol. - We’re playing on XBox Series X, and it behaves reasonably well. We typically split-screen while exploring, and merge the screens during battles. - When playing Divinity:Original Sin 2 we remained in merged screens 90% of the time, but for some reason it feels off in BG3, so we go with the merge only in battles. - I definitely need to read more about this… I (kinda) compare BG3 with The Witcher 3, and I would have enjoyed playing TW3 a lot with my gf for sure! (Not sure if she would like the whole run though). - Witcher 3 is my number 1 game of all time. My wife won’t play it because she hates Geralt’s voice. - TIL somebody is able to hate Geralt’s voice. - She knows she is in the minority. - I am just sad she’s missing out. - If you play on PC maybe there is a mod that changes his voice, IDK dude, PC modders are crazy 😂 
 
 
 
 
 
- It does have split screen, and getting that mode in particular to run well is why the Xbox Series S version had problems coming to market. I can’t speak for how well it runs on PS5, but it had no problems getting certified by Sony. - but it had no problems getting certified by Sony. - The thing is, I have heard this title and Wukong don’t run that well in the PS5, or at least that is what I have read in online sites… I am not sure if that is true, or it is only PC gamers being noisy about it. 
 
- Does this work on PC? I couldn’t figure out local multiplayer last time I tried (I only tried for a couple of minutes).
