I’ll be playing some Deep Rock Galactic. Always end up back playing it. ROCK AND STONE!
Been on a huge Spider-Man kick, lately. Just 100%'d the first and am currently probably 1/4 of the way through Miles Morales. I really like the new mechanics overall, I just suck at stealth 😬
Edit: Oops, didn’t realize this was the Xbox community, my mistake!
Regarding DPG, I find it hard to find groups to play with in my time zone. I’m on the Discord server, but nobody seems to be online my evenings NZT. I’ve tried DRG solo, but think it’s better multiplayer. Any tips to find people to play with?
Have you tried the Xbox looking for group function?
Will give that another try, but previously I found some very weird groups there or just a lot of empty groups.

Some The Witcher 3 on my Steam Deck and I started Trek to Yomi with gamepass. The art direction is so good it really feels like a movie
Wandering around Boston in Fallout 4, reinforcing some settlements, collecting some junk for scraps, and sleeping with Cait.
Even found another power armor suit that had somehow gone undiscovered years ago.
Playing with any specific build?
I’m playing on an Xbox One with just the six DLCs.
I installed one mod a looong time ago, whose name and purpose I don’t recall, and since then my gamer score has not increased despite having played several other games.
So, I’m a bit leery of trying anything else. As time permits, I’ll looking into getting things straightened out.
Ah, I didn’t mean mod, I meant character build. Like a sniper, or melee focused thief, or smooth talking bard or something 😀
Ah, yea, sorry. I’ve only ever used one character, and I think I started with mostly an “intelligence” build.
My character’s current SPECIAL stats are 10, 13, 7, 12, 10, 9, and 9 at level 129.
Wow, I didn’t even know you can reach level 129.
I love Fallout and Bethesda RPGs, but for some reason I couldn’t get into Fallout 4. It’s on my list of “give another try” list, but haven’t gotten around to it yet.
When I couldn’t get into it, I searched different things about the game, and found out character builds of all kind. Everything from simple ones like sniper, melee etc to weird ones, like ‘The Ninja’, and then some even weirder ones on YouTube.
Yea, I can understand. The early part of the game is marred by Preston Garvey giving one assignment after another, and having to rush off the defend settlements.
But FO4 has a quite elaborate settlement building component, and after ringing them with turrets and other defenses, they can pretty much take care of themselves, leaving more time to wander.
There’s quite a variety of things to see outside the city. My favorites are the Glowing Sea to the south west and Far Harbor to the north east (DLC).
The thing that really gives FO4 longevity, for me, is that the leveling up has no upper limit. Whatever character traits one picks initially should theoretically converge to a character with everything.
Yeah, maybe I should give it another go.
That’s nice about leveling. This is how I like playing Bethesda games. First play-through, I do everything I want. Then when I feel the urge to play them again after a while, I play a specific class. Like playing, just a melee fighter in Skyrim, or so on.
I’m so excited for Starfield because I miss the sense of exploration in Elder Scrolls and Fallout.
Oh yea! I’m really ready for the immersion in a new universe!
That’ll be the catalyst for me buying an Xbox Series X.
I’m continuing on my first play through ni no kuni 2
Yakuza 6 followed by Judgment and various Doom games (the original, 64, and Eternal to be exact).
I absolutely loved Judgement and its sequel. 100%ed both of them. Fantastic games. My first entry into the Yakuza games.
Heard a bunch of praises for Assassin’s Creed Origins, so I’ve just started that up recently. Very fun so far - looking forward to exploring around Egypt.
Of the three newest ones it is the best.
Max Payne 3. It is good, but it barely let’s you breath.
The Wandering Village
Gears of War 3
Battlefield 2042
Is 2042 actually worth playing now?
I only started playing it because I have gamepass ultimate. I originally tried playing it via the EA 10 hour trial but didn’t like it. I like playing it now but it’s still not like the old battlefield games.
GTA Online! I’m basic i know haha
Frostpunk since Sunday. I was just able to handle the London people, now I’m getting sick of it.
I love this game. Went through almost all the scenarios before burning out. Good stuff. Excellent console controls.
