I resumed playing Darkest Dungeon 2 because a new free game mode was introduced recently. It’s called Kingdoms and introduces a longer campaign with a strategic layer on top of the normal mode, a bit like freelancer. Heros will get tired like in xcom, so you’ll have to rotate them. Also you have to defeat the kingdom invaders within a time limit. The new enemies are a little uninspired, and the story has no presentation but overall is a good addition to an already fantastic game. I also bought the new dlc to support the devs.

I like the uno event because you can actually get everything for free and for once I was good at the game and didn’t lose

Okay, just based upon watching this Jacob Geller video, I really need to play World of Goo 2.
I may have spoiled what its central hook is, but damn, do I love that kind of thing.
I skipped over the World of Goo specific section (and a bit later on about what happens near the “end” of it.) But from this video’s topic, it really interests me and I had no idea it would pull such a twist. (Or I guess I should have expected that, since I vividly remember WOG1 had a major twist moment involving new Platform mechanics, an entirely different art style, and huge narrative setup by World 3 in the original… (The part where everything becomes a Green Digital World)
Long story short: Go Play The Stanley Parable Ultra Deluxe
It is a superb sequel-reboot that toys with the idea of sequels and franchises and intentionally holds back its “New Content” for a bit before laying out the cards.
And it seems like World of Goo 2 does the same kind of thing? I love meta-narrative stuff, so this sounds really exciting to me.
Also probably Dragon’s Dogma 2, since it sounds like it heavily deals with the idea of cycles and choice/consequence and is a whole lot more expansive than I thought? (Based on gameplay alone, I thought it was some Monster-Hunter-like, not a narrative fantasy epic that lets you make stupid decisions for you & your party at any time, sounds cool)

Blue Prince is amazing. I’m only 8 “days” in and only scratching the surface of the mysteries, but the game wondrously strikes the right balance between frustration and discovery. I highly recommend this game to anyone looking for a slow paced brain buster.
