Which games are keeping you company this weekend?



The Summer Sale is on and as everybody's wishlists are dwindling, their playlists must grow exponentially! It's just science, really.

So which games are keeping you busy this weekend?
Go on, share your Weekend Playlists with us. They can include single-player games, multiplayer games, console exclusives, anything - we are not judging. In fact, we are sharing too!


Looking for some inspiration, perhaps? The GOG.com releases of the week are here for you:

You can immerse yourself in an epic space conflict in <span class="bold">Homeworld Remastered Collection</span>.
You can explore a desolate alien planet with peculiar structures in <span class="bold">The Solus Project</span>.
You can try to unmask a creepy villain in <span class="bold">Minecraft: Episode 6 - A Portal to Mystery</span>.
You can help the Soviets and the Americans blow each other up in <span class="bold">Battlezone 98 Redux</span>.
You can colonize space and maintain a fine-tuned <span class="bold">Planetbase</span>.
You can help a tormented mother search for her missing son in <span class="bold">The Park</span>.
You can build your own spectacular amusement park in <span class="bold">Parkitect</span>.
You can let the dice decide who survives a doomed Martian mission in <span class="bold">Tharsis</span>.

Zoidberg: You did not get MY point.

I very well know the point of the bundles, the issue I have is that Pirates had been in the featured list BEFORE appearing in a bundle. That's not really transparent (even Steam has stopped doing that).

HunchBluntley: I'm almost positive that it's an error. It's supposed to be Pirates! Gold Plus (which is the game image that appears in the bundle window). During sales, GOG doesn't advertise games that are currently in a promo bundle outside of that bundle. They've just been slow in fixing it.
Oh, OK. Good to know.

vicklemos: Interesting choice of games. How's DROD 5 (if) goin'?
avatar
Starmaker: Not particularly well (mostly because I was too busy recently to actually work on harder puzzles), but I'm interspersing TSS itself with easier holds. I'm stuck hard in TCB in the gel section. Gel sucks.

(I know there's a full walkthrough on youtube, but so far I only needed a video once, in the worst room in JtRH. I don't want to skip a whole level.)

Guild of Dungeoneering on the other hand looks short-session-friendly, has incremental progress, and is abstract enough to pull off the "dungeon-crawling as a joke" thing.
Thanks for the answer, man! Gotta try these, sometime. DROD is for the bold. I failed (on Gunthro) miserably but it's on my top 5 backLOCO list :p

I won't let this thread die! :D

The thing is, y'all know, I have relatives who live in the middle of nowhere, so GOG and its drm-free gogness are an absolute plus for me. Well, to put this in perspective, my folks just moved from -let's call it that way- middle of nowhere to middle of NADA. Yup. 3G connections only, no highspeed, no always online (:P), zilch.

Sooo I had some titles sittin' in here and drove 1.5h to their cool new place. In, like, 20 mins there was good ol' me playing Settlers 2 10th anniversary (RTTR on Linux, truly an eye popper) + I.G.I. 2 + Challenge of the Five Realms (THANKS for the review, zombiemane!) and some SF Alpha 2 with my bro. What a weekend! :D

Sarasa: Myriad Colors Phantom World
Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? (reading also the LN, Vol6 release date 08/23/2016 & 7 release date 12/13/2016 )

omega64: Ah, I watched the first episode of MCPW.
Haven't really been itching to see more of it.
the other anime any good?
Sorry for the slow answer, trying to reduce a little more my backlog ^^;

Yeah MCPW is particular, if it doesn't attract you after 2 or 3 ep it will be difficult to watch the rest.

Danmachi is not a bad series, it follow the "rpg world" trope but with a difference, it's never clearly explained if they are in a VR world or alternate timeline (neither in the anime or the LN)

Finished also Atelier Escha & Logy - Alchemists of the Dusk Sky (yes, it's a 2014 series -_-; )
