Inspired by misty posting a bunch of backloggd's
- Anti-Idle: Truly horrific that I'm playing this game again. Idle games just vacuum me in once in awhile, mysteriously correspondent to times I'm having a really hard time focusing on games because I'm exhausted. I'm already getting bored of it but that too, is idle games.
- Your Chronicle: See above. It's cute enough, I might stick with it longer.
- My Time At Sandrock: Early access is nearly done and you can tell. Having a blast with this. It's become my new podcast game as I move into the start of Palisade. The kind of harvest moon-genre game that can easily eat an entire day.
- Palia: Tried the open beta. It's cute but I feel like on several levels it fundamentally doesn't understand what keeps people playing harvest moon style games - the complete lack of energy meter or required sleep in particular destroys any sense of pacing it might have, or any incentive to talk with its cast non-transactionally - you could always just be grinding items instead. I'm skeptical it's going to survive as a free to play game. Also, multiple people watching me play it confused it for fortnite because of the aesthetic. Oops.
- Time Bandit: I've been taking it very slow this time but still ended up going blazing fast because I know all the puzzles and where everything is. I'm already chomping at the bit for whatever time bandit 2 is even though I know that if that happens at all it's ages away. I really want it to happen tho.
- Ys SEVEN: I returned to this after watching misty play thru Ark of Napishtim, my favourite ys game. It's... decent, but feels forgettable. I mostly feel like I'm going to end up completing it for the sake of seeing the continuity with 8. Also geis, what are you DOING in this game???
- Baldur's Gate 3: Taking a small break from this because my brain is melted lately but you really don't need ME to tell you it's excellent. First big budget rpg I've played in a long time tbh. Like with all of these, I constantly skip all the voiced dialogue because I read too fast. I miss the days of text logs.
- Bomb Rush Cyberfunk: It's so good. Captures everything that made jsrf excellent. After losing my jsrf disc as a teenager this is everything I ever wanted.
- XENOTILT: I ended up getting way more into this than Demon's Tilt, probably because I'm better at it than Demon's Tilt. I'm not sure why yet. It's a blast tho.
- Picross S2: I've been slowly, slowly creeping up on 100%ing this game. Mega picross REALLY hurts my brain tho.
- Murder by Numbers: This was free on epic recently and I have to admit I'm feeling pretty let down by the writing after finishing the first case. The picross is fun tho!
