Sunday is Gaming Day: What Are You Playing Weekly Thread

Satisfactory. The factories keep getting bigger and bigger and producing fewer and fewer parts.
I’m currently feeling heavy decision paralysis. Do I build a second gigantic factory to produce motors or do I build a railroad across the entire map and transport them instead?

Ghost of Tsushima is pretty good, but the story reeks of orientalism and is kinda racist tbh.

Oblivion, kinda Vanilla+. I have a depressing number of hours dumped into Morrowind and Skyrim, but Oblivion has kinda always just been "there" for me. That game that came between. I've beaten it in the past, enjoyed abusing things like paintbrush steps and all that, but never got really invested. Couldn't tell you why.
So, I've decided to change that. Taking it slow, exploring, and just having a generally good time.
- Fancy sharing the vanilla+ mods you have? I had a collection for oblivion myself ages ago but my HDD died and i didn't remember what I added but i remember it being quite fun.
  I did the same with morrowind but that has a website dedicated to a vanilla+ modlist
  
  Home, wanted to give a cleaner version now. Just for awareness, I have a copy from GOG, so I have the 4gb patch baked in, but for physical copies and I think the Steam version, you'll have to grab that, too, like with most older Beth titles.
  First, running BethINI for deep ini tweaks for the base game, highly recommend.
  xOBSE, not the older OBSE.
  Unofficial Oblivion Patch, Unofficial Shivering Isles patch, Unofficial DLC patch.
  Blockhead.
  Engine Bug Fixes and Blue's Engine Bug Fixes.
  Oblivion Display Tweaks.
  SkyBSA.
  OBL Mod Limit Fix.
  MenuQue.
  LINK.
  OBSE Elys Universal Silent Voices.
  Shambles Crash Fix.
  Cornerras Maximum Compatibility Skeletons.
  HG EyeCandy Body Replacer.
  Oblivion Character Overhaul V2, OCO- Advanced Edition for bashed patch compatibility, OCOv2 - Filter Patch for Mods. This is where I needed the guide as you need to have things a certain way for WryeBash and UOP.
  New Eyes for OCO V2.
  Ultimate Leveling.
  Carry More Stuff(I use the Lite esp).
  Maskars Oblivion Overhaul.
  A Brotherhood Renewed.
  Kvatch Rebuilt.
  Immersive Weapons.
  Clearer Underwater.
  Here's a link to the Essentials guide
  
  I'm currently away from my laptop, so I'm going mostly off memory for now, but it's pretty basic:
  Oblivion Script Extender(OBSE), Blockhead, HGEC body mod, Immersive Weapons, Oblivion Character Overhaul, Better Underwater(removes the fog from outdoor underwater locations), Maskars Oblivion Overhaul, Ultimate Leveling customized to near Vanilla but using the KCAS wheel setting for attribute leveling, LINK, Unofficial Oblivion Patch, a few sub patches for UOP.
  If you look up "Oblivion Modding Guide Steam", that's the list I pulled from for the base setup.

Satisfactory, working on my first aluminum factory, trying to make sure it doesn't back up on byproducts.

I have been too tired to play video games
- Resting is it own reward!

Been playing Remnant 2 because I have a terminal addiction to looter shooters. It has two separate guns that fire the platonic concept of "cube" as a projectile to deal damage. They both have infinite ammo and I will fire them at thin air because they fire "cube" and that fact is absolutely delightful. Something is wrong with my brain.

super monkey ball 2 but just the billiards party game

Silent Hill 2 Remake- I had been wanting to get into the SH franchise, but when I played the SH1 via emulation I was underwhelmed by the controls. Hated to drop it because it nailed the ambiance of what a horror suvival game should be like. Anyway, I'm liking the SH2 remake so far.
Metaphor: ReFantazio- Still making my way through the demo since I don't know if I want to jump all in just yet.

Some space fash simulator (space marine 2) since a recent patch actually allows it to run more than 30s before crashing. Fun game, difficulty overtuned as fuck though

Been playing Fire Emblem: The Morrow's Golden Country. It's a pretty great romhack, with a good story, and that Three Houses feeling of "is anybody really good or bad? I don't want to kill them". I have a feeling it's only going to get more complex and gain more depth, and I'm here for it.

i finished jedi survivor and i'm still mourning my glorbos and glup shittos...

I just played dota all day

I've been replaying Celeste because last time I stopped in frustration at 5b. Now I'm on 7c and oh boy the last screen is something else. I've been stuck for two hours already.

Playing silent hill 2 remake. I like it. It's pretty scary.

tetris and super mario 64

Played the metaphor refantasy demo I dont think I'll play the full game.

- Finished Metaphor demo, now I'm having an internal struggle session over if I should buy it or not, because it's so fucking expensive.
  I did the whacky and stupid thing which is buy a denuvo offline activation for five bucks from some russian site, which is not something I recommend, but I just can't help myself when it comes to these games.
  I do really like the game so far, but that could definitely change depending on how liberal brainwormed or generally idiotic the story turns out to be. Your motivation in this whole thing being to get the righteous heir (who also just happens to just be a nice guy who would do good for the kingdom and its people) onto the throne is already kinda iffy and the villains in this story being the most "villain who has good motivations but goes about it in ridiculously evil ways" they could possibly be doesn't help matters either.
  
  It does manage to get you out of the city and into the world fairly quickly after the first dungeon though and I could definitely imagine this game taking you on quite a large and eventful journey (which is exactly what I want out of a JRPG) and the vibes are just pretty damn cozy for the most part. Probably helps that the most basic mechanical pieces of these games just fit way better into a fantasy world than it ever did in the real-life-setting of Persona. Just having side dungeons with little stories to them that are actual places in the world instead of mementos or whatever the persona games before 5 had is a giant improvement.

  Damn, someone else played this?
  Metaphor
  If you're on the fence, just wait until it's pirateable imo.
  
  just warning everyone that metaphor will probably never get a crack in this decade unless we get like a miracle empress crack or something
  not only is it denuvo but it's Sega denuvo, they bought a perpetual license in the early days of denuvo so they don't have to pay the subscription fee and ergo their games pretty much never remove denuvo, even their 5+ year old games and games that didn't sell shit like sonic forces
  best anyone can do is pray it gets an emulatable switch port like persona 5 did

Portal Revolution: What a well made mod. It honestly felt like a part of the franchise.
Portal 2: PR is apparently getting me back into a first person puzzle kick so I had to go with this next. It's my 4th or 47th playthrough but it's been a long time. Very much enjoying it. I'm trying to play co-op with my kid but it's hard keeping my patience so we are playing in small bursts. We are about halfway done.
X4: It took me an embarrassingly long time to get my substrate factory construction going. I donno what was going but I'd assign a construction ship and it would just disappear. I'm deep inside Terran space so they ships weren't getting ganked. I'd unbuy the factory and cancel the plot and the ship would show back up on the map. I finally decided to park on on, then assign it and ride to my plot in Mars and it's finally building. The whole thing is just keeping me from wanting to play more though.

Warthunder, sadly

When I am not exhausting myself with Stepmania I am still working through my Half Life Alyx play through.

Thinking about buying a refurbished PS5 so I can finally play Baldurs Gate 3, but now I’m considering Metaphor Refantazio first.
Continuing my month of playing Slay the Spire as Ironclad. So far I have two A20 heart kills, but I’m going to have to push to beat my previous best Ironclad month (with 4 wins). And I hope to be able to win with a build other than corruption/snecko. We shall see!

Just got a sim racing setup so been playing a lot of rally and Asetto Corsa!

I played a couple rounds of Kill Team with my friend to see if it was to my liking. Once the flow state kicked in, I was super engaged. Beastmen are super fun and I hope we eventually get a Loyalist equivalent, considering my love for more obscure units and alien races in that game.
- TFW you have a friend group that plays 40k but they refuse to play Kill Team
  
  I may be biased because I have the most playable KTs (Kasrkin, Inquisitorial Goon Squad, Blades of Khaine, and while I will never buy anything related to Krieg I'm sure I could use my Valhallans for Veteran Guardsmen), and the AdMech and 'Nid players are pissed that they've never gotten a box after, what, 5 years of KT2.0.
  Edit: Jesus fucking christ the new community article for the SM/DG starter refers to them as "the proud Space Marines of the Angels of Death facing down the removed heretics of the Plague Marines". GW not beating the cryptofash allegations.
  
  I've always loved all the weird Witchhunter models. Half of the old pewter dudes are basically made for a smaller game. Sorry you can't find a lot of KT people. I prefer building over playing, so that sidegame is certainly more my pace.

Alternating between
death stranding
silent hill 2 remake
dread delusion
persona 2 eternal punishment
I'll finish one of them eventually

Probably gonna finish sweeping fe7 using only mounted units, canas, and obligatory lords. It is so fucking easy this way. So I'll probably have another go around on Hector hard mode, playing on switch or I would have started there

Battery replacement surgery on my rg353 was successful. 20% more capacity, only cost like $20 on AliExpress

Haven't posted in the Sunday thread in a bit, but it's Saturday

Playing Dark Ages, it's an MMO by Nexon so I'm back on my kick of online games. Here's my monk chilling in the town inn next to a naked afk player.

I picked up kenshi again. I tell myself every time i play this game that Im gonna do a different playthrough but just end up being a 1-3 squad attempting to take down the slaver factions with tinfist
