I'm trying to play a lot of stuff at the same time to see if the constant shifting keeps me interested in all I'm trying.

What video games have you played recently?

  • Recently I started my second playthrough of Sekiro, I first played and finished it when it launched I think.
  • I'm in the middle of my first Hollow Knight playthrough and this game is fucking amazing.
  • I recently started a new Elden Ring character too, she is named ComradeTarnished and I don't know exactly what build I want, but I want to try a shotel with parry and a hammer on the right hand, it probably won't work well so I'll most likely end up trying a Grave Scythe blood build, this is probably gonna be the character I do the DLC with when it launches, but I don't know if I wanna do it in NG or NG+1.
  • Yesterday I started Lies of P for the first time too, and while I'm still getting used to the movement, this game seems to be really good, at least on first impression, I hope it lives up to the hype surrounding it, I'm having fun so far.
  • Today I tried an hour or so of the Archthrones mod beta for Dark Souls 3, I picked the starting class with a bandage in the head that looks sick as fuck. Besides a few things it's really cool, can't wait to finish the demo.

What are your favorite video game genres?

I think my answer above shows that its Souls/Souls-like lmao.

What game have you completed recently and what are your thoughts on it?

Haven't finished a game in months sadly, the last one I did was Katana Zero, but it was like my 7th or 8th run. Still great tho, I gotta get around to finish getting all the achievements, there's only two left.

it was like my 7th or 8th run.

Impressive.

Also, "ComradeTarnished," nice.

Thanks! I realized I phrased it a little weird, I didn't mean run like in a roguelike because it is not that, but meant that I finished the game 7 or 8 times now lol. If you like short fast-paced sidescrollers with outrun themes and a perfect soundtrack I highly recommend it, it's a literal gem. Also, the later plot points are inspired by the Vietnam war.

Also, “ComradeTarnished,” nice.

The shotel and hammer I mentioned is supposed to mimic the hammer and sickle, I hope the build works out lol.

It works. Hamsics generally change between communist party or communist group depending on the country.
