Hello everyone. Hope everyone had a good christmas season. Since this is the final Gaming Sunday of 2024 I thought we'd all share our favorite games that we played in 2024, either one's that came out this year or others. I played a grand total of one (1) 2024 release, Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree, which i thought was a fantastic expansion to Elden Ring. My favorite game that I played in 2024 however is Baldur's Gate 3. As someone who has never touched DnD or anything related to it I found it easy to slip into thanks to a great cast of characters and combat that rewards experimentation. I hope everyone has a good start to their new year 🫡🫡🫡
Balatro. It's good. I wish they would update it with more jokers or something. I eventually hit a wall in climbing the stakes, but I had lots of fun with it.
Factorio Space Age. They did a good job on this. A few silly arbitrary limitations imo, but I put another few hundred hours into it. It was worth the money.
Dwarf Fort. Sel explanatory. But adventure mode was a let down imo.
Elin. Elona prequel. I could do without some of the edge, but it's a fun exploration/builder game. This is what I thought DF adventure mode was going to be like.
Path of Achra. It hit that nice sweet spot between gameplay and theory crafting.
There is a balatro content update announced. Release window is all of 2025 though. There are several mods that add jokers as well, but some are more balanced than others. And only some are close enough in design to feel "native".
Yeah I'm looking forward to it.
I had some fun playing with the cryptid mod. Very game breaking, but still fun to try the different decks and stuff.
