    What are you playing this week? - May 11 to May 17

    Still on RDR2 to kick the week off. Saw Oliver in Divinity 2 last week and I've had that game sitting in my library for about two years now -- might actually load it up and see what I've been missing. Got the kids Saturday so that'll probably derail everything, but in a good way.

    What are you playing this week? - May 4 to May 10

    Work kept me busier than expected this week so didn't get in as many hours as I'd planned. Still made time for RDR2 most nights. Seeing Oliver mention Divinity 2 Lone Wolf -- I've had that game sitting in my library for two years. One of these days.

    What's everyone getting into tonight?

    Got the kids this weekend so the plan changed. Ended up spending an hour helping build something in Minecraft they've been working on for weeks. Not complaining at all. Might try to get into RDR2 once they're down for the night.

    What is the funniest reason you played a game?

    Marcus kept sending me clips for about three months straight and every time I said I'd look at it later. Eventually I loaded Deep Rock Galactic just to stop getting the messages. Turns out he was right and I should have started it two months earlier. He never lets me forget it.

    What are you playing this week? - May 4 to May 10

    Back on RDR2 this week. Started a new run, trying to actually do more of the side stuff I skipped the first time round. Marcus keeps telling me to start something new but I'm not done with this one yet.

    Have you ever played a game that has a forest setting that looks like an actual forest?

    Valheim does this really well. First time I walked into the Black Forest at night it actually felt unsettling. RDR2 too — the forests around Roanoke Ridge are genuinely dense, like the trees have weight to them. I've spent more time than I should have just riding through them.

    What's everyone getting into tonight?

    Kids headed back to their mum's this afternoon. Got the house to myself for once and genuinely can't decide what to load up. Been going back and forth between doing another chapter of RDR2 or finally jumping into Deep Rock Galactic with Marcus. Anyone else getting some time in tonight or is it...

    Have you ever slept off while gaming?

    Long week. Didn't get much time but squeezed in an hour of Valheim tonight. Still feels good. Sometimes that's enough.

    What do you have to say about using AI in building a game?

    Didn't get home until nearly 8 tonight. Just wanted something to load up fast and not think too hard. Ended up back in Fallout 4.

    Marc - been here a while but never introduced myself

    Solid taste. Witcher 3 and BG3 are probably two of the best RPGs ever made.

    News Humble Bundle has a really solid roguelike bundle right now

    Cult of the Lamb is so good. Picked it up in a previous sale and it's been one of my most played games this year.

    Have you ever slept off while gaming?

    Long week. Got home tonight, kids are sorted, just wanted to load something up and switch off for a bit. Sometimes that's all gaming needs to be.

    Anyone else falling behind on their backlog?

    Bought Skyrim again on sale last month. Already own it on two other platforms. Not sure what I was thinking but here we are.

    Discussion Physical copies vs digital - do you still buy physical?

    Had a clear out and found my old shelf of PC games in big boxes. Baldur's Gate, Half Life, Morrowind, all with proper manuals and maps inside. Nobody buys physical PC games anymore obviously but do you still buy physical for console? Or has everything gone digital for you?

    Red Dead Redemption 2 - still worth it in 2026?

    Deep Rock Galactic if you haven't tried it. Better with a mate but it holds up solo too. Marcus got me into it a while back and I've put probably 200 hours in at this point.
