Hey all! Apologies for being bad about these threads. All I can really say is life is kind of chaotic. I’m going to see if I can maybe get a bot to post these if I can’t do it a certain week. Thanks for being understanding.
As for me I’ve mainly been playing Persona 5 Royal. Been really loving it! It’s so damn long though lol. Really excited for res 9 next week as well!!!

I’m not very far yet, but it’s been an incredible and intriguing game so far. The graphics, music, and story are all beautifully designed and I find myself craving to uncover more details.
I am struggling a bit with the boss encounters, however, due to the limited amount of hits the game gives you. I’m considering turning on one of the assist modes, because I don’t have the time or patience for a perfect run.
Yeah, especially with age I find myself less interested in those 150+ hour games. One of the reasons I haven’t considered dipping into the Persona series.
For me, I haven’t played that much this week so I’m still on the same games as last week. Chrono Ark continues to be excellent, and a wholehearted recommend if you’re into roguelike deckbuilders. Ninja Gaiden 4 is the best new action game in ages, and Ninja Gaiden 2 Black is even more fun than before with some mods - most recently the Modified Moveset Mod.
No Man’s Sky update for the Colossus is a good time, the expedition is fun one you get past the initial phase where you can barely drive. Once you get that sucker souped up, oh man it is good fun. I finished the expedition and now I am upgrading my main save’s situation. Found a pretty red grass paradise planet that is relativity flat and so that makes it nice. The physics of the shit in the flatbed is frustrating but I just overfill it and that seems to keep most of it down when you hit a bump. I just went over 1,150 hours total and realized the game is almost at its 10 year anniversary. I played it on the first day and have always loved it, even when it was the most hated game on the internet. I am so happy for Hello Games and the turnaround they had and looking forward to their next big game Light No Fire
I checked out the horse sale yesterday and picked up Unicorn Tails… it’s objectively a bad game but it’s got that indie jank and they managed to get full voice over so I had fun with it for a few hours.
I also returned to Secret Agent Wizard Boy and the International Crime Syndicate and finally beat the early access that was released last year, only to discover they have a beta branch that will be getting a big update next week. It was fun though and I’m excited for the update.

Original Dune for Amiga on WinUAE emulator. It’s pretty good.

I have great memories of dune on the Sega… got to the end and stale mated the game because my last living combat unit and the computers could not kill each other…
