Obtained the most important achievement in Baulder's Gate 3 tonight... #GamesMasterXantin

So, tonight I finally finished Return on the Obra Dinn. Definitely going in at the top of my list of fascinating and engaging games. 100% recommend picking it up if you fancy a logic challenge with quirky graphics. #GamesMasterXantin

Just finished Chants Of Sennaar, possibly one of the best games I've played in a long while. Hit the balance JUST right for frustrating puzzle solving and moments of utter bliss when you work out a clue. 100% recommend this game. #GamesMasterXantin

So Alchemy Factory is very fun, but ye GODS is it a nightmare trying to work out the production chains. Some of it is really simple X in Y out, but fuel is just f'king confusing.

On @wauffles.bsky.social advice I've also picked up Ballionaire, because it seems Roguelikes are my vibe currently as they kill my "everything must be perfect" tendencies. It's interesting, but trippy as all hell! #GamesMasterXantin

Should also have posted ages ago that @itspequod.bsky.social and I recently finished a playthrough of @abioticfactor.com, which has gone straight in at the top of my list for game of the year. Game was really challenging, but never felt punishing, level design is GENIUS. #GamesMasterXantin

Spent a few hours in VR tonight with @itspequod.bsky.social playing Escape Simulator. I've never really done any multiplayer VR before and honestly had an absolute blast. Definitely an easier game with 2 people so you have one to read items, the other to enter codes. #GamesMasterXantin

Tonight in Valheim... @itspequod.bsky.social and I set out bravely in search of a new world, looking for a place to settle, to grow crops and farm. Arriving in this new world aboard our trusty long ship... We died... #GamesMasterXantin

Spent the night on Baldur's Gate 3 with @itspequod.bsky.social. Main achievement has been "earning money playing music for goblins". Starting to get much more of a feel for the game and how things interact! #GamesMasterXantin

Picked up Parcel Simulator in the Steam Winter Sale as a bit of a distraction game. It's a nice mix of Papers Please & Satisfactory. I've now got a fully automated processing plant going. Next step is to start improving efficiencies. Quite enjoying it.

Picked up a game demo for MineMogul today. Definitely one I am going to be picking up when it comes to EA. I love automation games and this one is very much realistic (belts don't link to machines, stuff just drops). Had a really fun evening setting up basic production lines. #GamesMasterXantin

Would anybody else care for some lovely bitter green tea & jaw-droppingly large strawberry desserts? #GamesMasterXantin

Spent some time in VR too playing Down the Rabbit Hole. It's an interesting concept and I quite like the mix of perspectives they play with. Also, they've created some really unique settings. Unfortunately, VR doesn't really do good screenshots! Need to do more VR stuff soon. #GamesMasterXantin

Fucking loving that I'm starting to get the feel for how to win this. That, plus couldn't actually lose at this point because of Mr Bones. #GamesMasterXantin

Well, it's 1.0 and time to start a new playthrough. Landed, upgraded, found a sluggo friend and got basic component production up and running. Just unlocked base building and splitters, so tomorrow will be spent building a vaguely orderly starter base. #GamesMasterXantin

Quite proud of my 1st ever actual factory build in Satisfactory that's not just "box" or "random machines plonked down". Decided to build a munitions factory for the server I'm playing with @itspequod.bsky.social & @amber-antlers.bsky.social. #GamesMasterXantin

Picked up Cast n Chill as a flop in bed game. Gorgeous art style, just enough technique to be interesting. Just picked up my first legendary! #GamesMasterXantin

I wasn't aware when I agreed to pay BG3 with @itspequod.bsky.social that it was THAT sort of game... #GamesMasterXantin
November 13, 2024 at 9:13 PM
So I picked up Seafarer: The Ship Sim in Early Access. Spent this evening playing it. The concept is really fun and it's nice to just chill whilst hauling cargo. Won't pretend that an hour just sailing between waypoints isn't thrilling, but I also just unlocked fast travel... #GamesMasterXantin

Been having an absolute ball with @itspequod.bsky.social playing Abiotic Factor. Kinda amazed how much I'm enjoying playing it as I didn't initially think it would be my sort of game. The map design is pure genius and randomly opening up new pathways is so rewarding. #GamesMasterXantin

Just reached the end of Spiritfarer and I don't think I could say that a game has ever managed to actually touch my soul like that did. Putting aside that it's a fun little platforming and collecting game, underneath is some incredible heart and touching moments. #GamesMasterXantin

I do find that the derailed carriages you find are a bit spooky in their way. I also have developed a habit of turning off all the lights in them, sort of like putting them to rest, I am unsure why... #GamesMasterXantin

Decided to pick up a load of new VR games, because I've been really getting back into it, DEFINITELY going to get cables run down into the living room when I redecorate and probably upgrade headset along with PC. Maestro is fucking brilliant, think Beat Sabre but performance. #GamesMasterXantin

I try and tag as much as I can on here that's topic specific, rather than just musings. If you're interested in specific stuff I talk about:
#GamesMasterXantin - PC / Console gaming.
#TableTopTiger - Board gaming.
#TigerFlix - Films / TV at home.
#Tigermount - Films at the cinema.

You can tell this is set during the second world war because of boobs, and blonde guys using phrases like "purebred German Bratwurst". Cliche's apart, this is still actually a quite fun game. #GamesMasterXantin
