Last week I did a music thread.
This time I thought it was time for a gaming thread. What's everyone playing?
I've been playing Dungeon Deathball, a fun little indie roguelike sports/puzzle/tactics game. That in turn makes me want to get back into Blood Bowl 2. Also played a little bit of Slay the Spire, recently.
Bought Darktide at launch (Xbox) and for an impulse buy, it's become my main time killer at 300 hours so far and still going strong.
The 40k aesthetic is so much more fun than Vermintide. I'm only level ~20 with my first character, so I might be missing something, but it feels like there's nothing to do with all the currency if you have weapons you like. The cosmetics leave a lot to be desired. But the core game is solid, especially with a crew.
Yeah, aside from buying the mediocre cosmetic stuff at the commissary, money is only good for weapon upgrades. Now that those are locked behind mastery levels, you can burn it by buying stuff from the requisition shop and upgrading the rarity through Hadron, then sacrificing it to shortcut the mastery levels grind. At later levels you'll have tons of resources to burn but it's still pretty shallow.
Clever, thanks!
