Hello everyone. Hope all my fellow Americans are gonna have a good Thanksgiving next week. I had my birthday this past week which was fun and full of debauchery. Anyway I finished another playthrough of Disco Elysium, finally did 100% achievements after 5 playthroughs. I also played some Binding of Isaac, but I didn’t play the new update. Have a good week everyone

    So I started playing Dyson Sphere Program again because my kiddo asked me so he could watch. Then he went and watched tv instead… I’m a little sad because he seemed actually interested in learning stuff this time but whatever. In any case I’m at yellow jello and working on automating logistics stuff. I need to bootstrap processors and I fucking hate those in early game. But yeah it’s processors, manually carry them to my logistics factory until I get spinner hats and PLS/ILS set up. then after that is green and purple jello and start setting up fer end game mall and sphere. I want to make it a quick run so I’m not going for like a Terrawatt sphere this time or anything. Will probably keep it all in my local system too.

    I am also attempting to play Workers and Resources finally. And uh… it’s not going great. I’m trying to follow along bballjo’s beginner tutorial but I’m already having issues with heating, food, and clothing. I have a clothing factory set up but I need power and stuff to it. I set up a big farm and then got overwhelmed and just kind of quit last night. Anyone have any tips? I love the idea of a Soviet city builder but this thing is just way too serious lol.

    I’ve been playing Tactical Breach Wizards and Star Wars: Outlaws.

    TBW is great - super fun puzzley turn based tactical combat.

    Outlaws is an open world Ubisoft game, for better or worse. I haven’t played one in years, so I’m enjoying this. Plus, I’m a big Glup Shitto fan

    Been playing Cities: Skylines. Just got up to 40,000 population. Probably the largest city I’ve built without chronic issues. I didn’t even put in a metro system until around 25k (and I still haven’t used a single traffic circle!). Still has room to grow.

    Bit late to the parade but I wound up playing a bit of Divinity: Original Sin with a friend from the TTRPG group that usually runs on Sundays. We wound up doing a lot of save scumming after getting some outcomes we didn’t like and some combats we were horribly under prepared for.

    Outer Wilds is really fun. I was looking for a good exploration game after beating Subnautica and this is really hitting the mark.

    I also want to start another Disco Elysium run. Not just because it’s a beautiful game, but because I need a whole bunch of screenshots to turn into proxies for my custom Disco Elysium-themed magic deck (Elmar, Ulvenwald Informant and Wernog, Rider’s Chaplain as Harry and Kim)

    Just starting some Zelda: A Link Between Worlds. Gives me some major nostalgia vibes for A Link to the Past… maybe I should replay that, it’s been thirty years since I beat it.

    VTM: bloodlines playing as a doggirl-growl really appreciate how well the game holds up (with the unofficial patch that is) been watching hunter the parenting so got in the mood for world of darkness again. Trying to get through it without cheating but if I stop having fun then I’ll just keep playing around, gotten through the game legit before so nothing spoiled.

    Factorio. But I have decided to take a week break because it started to become a problem again.

    I’ve finished all of the new content and got the win screen, but I stil have so much more to do.

    Is anyone else playing the new dlc? I’m curious what other people think of it. I like it, but there are some silly arbitrary decisions which just limit how you can play it. Luckily there will be mods for that though.

      Yeah! On my first world playing the expansion, currently have moderate factories on fulgora and vulcanus. Feels so much bigger than the original, even though I would guess I’m halfway-ish through the game.

        Nice! Yeah, the new planets really extend the game. I’ve got all of the planets making stuff right now, but need to go back and expand. I’m at like 10k spm rn (including productivity), aiming for 100k. The new biolabs are so good. I think I only consume like 1.6k per minute.
