No, I’m playing the PC version they released a while ago. I tried playing a PS1(?) port on my PS3 but the loading times every time you had a battle made it nearly unplayable. The PC version plays pretty well, though, and I just made it to the End of Time. Fun stuff.
I downloaded the (supposedly very generous, about 10 hours long) demonstration of DQXI on the Switch… and I spent about 15 minutes with it, which is a record for any game whose name doesn’t being with Monsterhun and doesn’t end with Ter in the past couple of weeks.
I hired a cat named Alex. He’s got a fashion sense. I’m sure some people would appreciate it.
It’s Australia so we’re a day early, a public holiday tomorrow (Friday), and work is over in 2 hours - so it’s almost the weekend here!
So it’ll be No Man’s Sky Beyond in VR, and Astral Chain and Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist: Link Evolution on Switch.
One of the best video games ever made, in my opinion. I did not finish it, and waited a decade after its release to try it while knowing about it the entire time. I really want to launch into what I think makes it so good, but I find it’s better to let others form their own opinions. Chrono Cross is also entertaining with a unique but very central mechanic.

I ended up binge-watching The Boys last weekend, so I guess I’ll now try to play the games I was supposed to play last weekend. Oh, and Hunt: Showdown has been released, so I need to check that out.
You must live in one of those southern states where they’re always on holiday!
Heh every state is southern to you eh? :)
Ekka Day!

Friday: Astral Chain
Saturday: Astral Chain
Sunday: Astral Chain
I will be finishing Sniper 2 and finally starting out Hitman 2, and maybe also building some stuff in either Subnautica or No Man’s Sky if I get the time.
Hopefully some Dungeons & Dragons, or maybe some board games.
Mostly this:

And likely some more late boss attempts with this:

Yeah I’ll be mostly playing Remnant. Might start Control too.
Yep. Mine is in. I hope to play some tonight and then on Sunday and Monday. Holiday weekend!

Probably some void opal mining & pirate hunting in Elite, and more exploring in No Man’s Sky. A bit of watching Age of Empires 2 with the ECL Lan Finals taking place, and maybe get some time in with the Definitive Edition beta.
Ok, I caught up in the Remnant thread. It sounds like you’re having a lot of fun in there. I’ll probably keep going with Dark Souls 3 until I catch up. I don’t want to get distracted by Remnant right now.
I’m basically right at the end of DS3, so it’s boss this, boss that, or boss the other. I will keep trying. Remnant clearly takes a lot of cues from Dark Souls and scratches a similar itch, but it’s a much more combat-focused experience, less emphasis on exploration. And it really benefits from being played co-op with 1-2 others (which helps you level up to tackle your own campaign, which is pretty darn tough).

Played doubles tennis today for 6ish hours then played singles for another 1,5 - most fun way to get exercise!
Getting reacquainted with God of War.

Yesterday I clocked a few more hours in Deadfire, but today I will stay offline by giving Arkham Horror - Card Game a try. Read a few positive opinions about it, so bought it on a bit of a whim. Hope it’ll be worth it!
For Space Game Junkie, I’m playing tons of Freespace 2 with mods, as part of a month-long celebration of its 20th birthday, as well as the new Resurrection campaign in Battlestar Galactica Deadlock.
For myself, probably more Far Cry 5 and Assassin’s Creed: Origins. Should be a very busy weekend.
