What’s everyone on /m/gaming playing lately?
I’m still making my way through the Diablo IV campaign, really enjoying that but looking forward to blasting and figuring out if I enjoy the endgame more than anything at this point. I’m a binge Path of Exile player but the past few leagues haven’t really done it for me. It’s been nice to play an ARPG again and I’m enjoying D4’s slower pace. Zoom zoom is great in POE, but it’s nice to get back to basics a little bit.
Went with Whirlwind Barbarian. Know it’s meta, but Cyclone Slayer is my favorite POE build so I’m just trying to enjoy my time as the overpowered class rather than fighting it haha.
Played through the Lies of P demo as well and thought it was mostly great. Not the greatest example of gameplay for the genre IMO, but the production values and the vibe were stellar.
How about you guys?
Street Fighter 6, and in really enjoying it. I’m not a fighting game guy at all, but they added a new Modern control scheme that lowers the barrier to entry. Now I’m having a blast every night with my buddies. I’d highly recommend it to anyone reading this.
Been playing Street Fighter 6 too. It’s been a lot of fun, though the monetization scheme they slapped on has me reticent for the game’s future
It’s more or less my first fighting game and I’ve been really enjoying it too. I made attempts at Guilty Gear before and it was just a lot to take in. SF6 has been a lot more manageable to start picking up even on classic controls which has been a lot of fun.
I didn’t think I’d really enjoy the single player part either but that has been fun, just running around with a controller and beating random dudes up.
