I am going through the Tomb Raider series for the first time. I never got to play the original trilogy and I have fallen in love with this game that I can only describe as a comedy sim. It's really mean but in a way that is extremely funny to both me and the stream. I think it helps a ton that the remasters have save anywhere which makes it extremely fair and even the game at its rudest still gets a real good laugh out of me.

Currently I am on the 2nd game. I definitely prefer the first game for surprising me as a really cool puzzle platformer when I assumed it was just an action game. I was glad to be wrong! The 2nd game however has kind of left me so far with mixed feelings where the game is made by a different team and has a lot of hitscan enemies far off that you usually can't tell where they are. It's also got some really confusing and odd level design. But what is keeping me really hooked is a lot of the cool new ideas it has like an area where one of the levels is an old abandoned sunken ship that has such an exciting atmosphere to explore that it might be my favorite area so far.

The real comedy though has come in the form of all the boulder traps which are so well planned ahead that I just gotta respect it. One of my favorites in the first game involved me serpentineing past two boulders really skillfully only to run directly into a 3rd one before I could realize what happened. Another good one has to be a decoy boulder that is really easy to dodge only for the game to have an immediate view after you dodge it of a free item that causes the camera to shift towards a secret second boulder. What really got me good with that item was by the time I saw the boulder I was already locked into the animation and accepted my fate of being flattened like a pancake

A fellow Patapon fan, awesome! I know the gameplay is a bit different from the OG, being a roguelite and all, but the devs have recently gone indie and made a new game called Ratatan!

Last night I played in a Martial Masters tournament! I only gave it a couple of days practice but I went 2-2, which I'm pretty happy with overall. Actually it was ideal, since I put in some good work but I didn't have to stay up for the whole tournament (I misread the start time when I signed up and it turned out to be midnight my time :shock:)

Sadly there's no VOD for the whole thing but i got recordings of the matches I played, there's a lot of fun goofy stuff in that game

Persona 1!!!! I've been having a ton of fun playing the psp port on an emulator. The encounters feel a bit much but considering how awesome (once you've done it a few times) shadow negotiation can be it can be a double edged sword since trying to get those shadow skill cards is rough.

A friend of mine gifted me Silverfish and honestly its wild? I never played STALKER before, but I've seen people posting clips and the like. The idea of it is neat and honestly I'm really living for more furry media in general. Like ATLYSS (Itch, Steam) aiming to get those vibes of a MMO from the 00s while also not being a game that'll self-destruct once the dev's done with it.

Lately I've been playing a ton of Darktide, I'm so brainsick about my Reject that I've got whole OCs about it. This game got me into 40k proper and I still can't be paid to care about Space Marines, Some Guy has all my attention.

I have been fully addicted to Mario Kart World lately. I - for one - love the new formula. I still wish more people had what they want from this game. Personally though, "Mario Kart I can just go for a stroll in" is a wonderful time. I missed the Webfishing train and have no friends who would be into it anyway, so MKW scratches that itch for me. And I just love to play with the controls in this game.

I also got way into Splatoon 3 recently. I had never played it but found it new for a good price. The recent festival was also a good motivation to try hard (team Land lost though :cry: ) At least I'm better at it than I am at Friends vs Friends...

Finally, I played Citizen Sleeper after getting recommended it by a coworker. Having very little experience with visual novel-type games, I went in not knowing really what to expect but I loved it! I got the bundle with the second one too, but I have yet to try that one. I may report back if I give it a try!

I've recently had the urge to design public transit infrastructure, so I booted up Airport CEO for the first time in a few years.

Sadly, the game never really got finished, and it remains a bit of a poorly optimised, difficult to play (if rather feature rich and feature complete) mess.

Don't suppose anyone knows of any good airport building/simulation games?
