Discussion What are you currently playing? (Week 36 of 2025)

Started (and finished) Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance (aka 3D) from the II.8 Final chapter prologue collection (sigh, these names).
Truth be told I've hated the game less than when I played it 10 years ago ( 🧓 ) I still dislike the time travel twist, tho. Since the game is shorter than I remembered and I don't want to start anything new since we have Silksong next week (since when I play 0.2 it will be to jump straight to KH3) I decided to do all the side content and 100% the game, I did all the bosses rematches and the secret boss and I'm kind of surprised that disney was fine adding Julius in the game.

I might watch Back Cover, but as I said no more KH until I'm done with Silksong.
 
Just finished Metal Gear Solid Delta yesterday.

I’m now playing
  • Unrailed 1 & 2 on PC (with a friend - we haven’t settled on one yet)
  • Persona 5 Royal on PS5 Pro (I’m replaying this between other games, and I’m on the July/August dungeon now - when I beat that I’ll put it back on the backlog)
  • Super Mario World on Analogue Pocket
I think Pokémon Scarlet on Switch 2 is next for me.

i'm somewhere in the middle of act 2 of expedition 33 now

so many things in it are so good whether that's the music, or the character interactions, or the lore with the previous expedition journals and flags and such and even the combat system which is what I was most unsure about has been very enjoyable with optional bosses where i've had to try a few times

honestly if I had to single one thing out to nitpick on at this point(aside from stuff like the lack of area maps) it would actually be the main story, it does a good job of giving a direction to keep things feeling focused and setting a tone but
I still kinda feel like i've seen nothing but cryptic comments about the stuff I actually care about(just the way the world works in general and why it is the way it is and such) and the feeling of characters hiding things can be a bit oppressive at times, maybe in another 10 hours or whatever i'll feel very different we'll see but right now I do feel like it's been the games weakest aspect


I also finished fragments in daybreak 2 a few days ago, I haven't started act 3 yet mostly because i've seen enough comments about it being like half the game that it's a little intimidating to dive into
 
Do I have to really say what I'm playing this week?

I want to play something light-hearted so I returned to Gurumin. Slowly progressing as I only play one stage per session.

Also installed and played Lara Croft Go. Already completed the main game, now onto the two bonus chapters. Great puzzle game.

I got sucked the hell back into Friends Vs Friends. It's real jank and runs like ass, but god damn is it fun. It's pretty much the only card game I can intuitively grasp synergies and counterplay in, thanks to having a good intuition for how FPS games work.

It's nice that the console version has seemingly reinvigorated the playerbase, I'm not having to wait long for matches like I was when I tried playing before that launched.
 
I got the itch to check back in on No Man's Sky since its new update brought it back in the news cycle.
It's always fascinating to jump back in on a live game you last played several years ago. The new Corvette class spaceships are cool, the build system reminds me of the stuff I saw from Starfield, at least visually.
They are your base and starship combined into one, essentially.

It's still the same game otherwise at the core of course. It's vibes, the game and checklist, the game.
 
Getting back to Helldivers 2 after a long hiatus. The bugs, the goofy voicelines, and the absolute chaos... Hilarious shit.
