Hey everyone! Going to test out a weekly “what are you playing?” thread to encourage some discussion. As this is “True Gaming,” we would of course love to see a few sentences elaborating on your thoughts of what you are playing.

Right now I am putzing around in Baldur’s Gate 3 trying to see what whacky things I can pull off or incur in my second playthrough. I also have the Dead Space remake tee’d up for play soon and have been occasionally playing Arcade Paradise with my son, which has been a real delight - once you beat the game it’s just a fun arcade to run around working on high scores in. He just loves picking up all the trash and the little “gamified” aspects of the arcade himself!

So: what are you playing?

    It’s punishing. Some design decisions (such as having to drink a potion to save the game) make it so that it takes comparatively longer for your character to become a “superhuman” than it would in Skyrim or Fallout. Worth it if you liked those other two!

      Appreciate the insight! You and the other person have me definitely intrigued. Might have to try this weekend.
