Late to the party on this cultural phenomenon but just started playing Helldivers 2, so much fun, also just everything about it is so over the top absurd, love it so much.
Noita is the best roguelike I've ever played. It's not just "number go up" because you're an action wizard shooting programmable magic wands in an ultra-lethal world that's entirely particle simulated and destructable and full of alchemy and secrets. The WR speedrun is like .6 seconds, pure magic.
Context on the WR speedrun. You spend a ton of time building a VERY special wand and smuggling it into a New Game. A "condition" logic spell makes it do something different each click. New Game, teleport to boss room, acquire McGuffin, teleport to end room, Midas, end credits. https://youtu.be/YYTB5_zBANg
i loved the first game sm i was addicted to it. i haven’t had the time to sit with the new one as much but i was thinking about it yesterday so this is my sign!
Been playing DRG regularly for years, still the game I play the most.
Not much of a gamer after I started game dev, because it made me way too aware of design flaws, but this one is basically as good as it could have ever been. The few criticisms I do have are like, limitations they worked around.
My other half re-played Theme Hospital on the PS2 recently which I don’t have. So I started playing the Two Point version on PS4 but am hooked on Two Point Campus just now 🙈

This is my first playthrough after the last major patch, and I've added two expansion-sized mods to it. Going to just indulge and enjoy the world.

It's terrible but I can't stop playing (literally)

The gameplay is fun as hell and the writing is hilarious

But also, been playing a lot of borderlands with the fam, which is a lot of fun.
Which I have about 5K hours over 10 years in.
