Hey everyone!

I just got laid off a few weeks ago, applying for jobs and doing a little Linux/networking personal development in my spare time. My wife is leaving today for a week for work, so I’m trying to pick a game out of my backlog while I’ve got some alone time!

Not really feeling a genre or setting, open to almost anything right now, but it needs to be a game I own that will consume me for a week!

Options:

  • NieR:Automata (Steam Deck)
  • ANIMAL WELL (Steam Deck)
  • LUNAR Remastered Collection (Steam Deck) * specifically Lunar 1, I did start it on a flight recently
  • Cyberpunk 2077 (PS5)
  • DRAGON BALL Z KAKAROT (PS5)
  • Ni No Kuni (1 & 2) (PS4)
  • Armored Core 6 (PS5) * I got about half way and need to go back to it

I’ll probably play some Battlefield 6 (MP/RedSec) for mindless gaming. Jump back into some Arc Raiders which I fell off recently. Also learning to play Dwarf Fortress, but that might be on the back burner. Might also give Project Zomboid another try.

Games I’m going to avoid, No Man’s Sky, RimWorld and Civilization V… fun games, but they’ll consume me more than I’d like lol

What are everyone’s thoughts?

    NieR: Automata is a great game, with multiple stories…I do enjoy the lore of that setting. I am working on my next playthrough as I completed the first not too long ago. I feel in a week’s time you can complete several stories (I tend to take my time). Plus the gameplay is so freaking smooth, I love the weird and thoughtful dialogue. Taro is an excellent writer with a lot to say in his games.
