I’m going to do these periodically.

Title kinda says all.

I’ll have my own reply later.

Special weekly question:

What do you like most about 2023’s repertoire of video games?

    Recently beat Super Mario Wonder. I have mixed feelings about the game in that I really enjoyed my first playthrough but think going back to it would be a chore. That said I think speedrunners will have a field day with it because of badge tech so I’m happy for them.

    Currently playing a combination of Team Fortress 2, Battlebit Remastered, Factorio (Space Exploration mod), and various Portal 2 custom co-op levels with a friend (soon to be Portal: Reloaded co-op once a friend beats the base game).

    2023 has been great for me in that spiritual successors/actual successors/revivals of my favorite older games have occured (Battlebit taking the older battlefield mantle up, Team Fortress 2 having a player resurgence, Tribes 3 Rivals on the horizon).

    Going forward I expect a lot of time in Factorio and Tribes 3 assuming they make some fairly substantial (and expected) changes to jetpack mechanics (increasing the strength and duration for next week’s alpha test as well as testing out 1X vs 1X lobby sizes).
