Which games are keeping you company this weekend?



The week's end is upon us! Time to rejoice, consume unhealthy amounts of food, sleep, relax, and play a lot of videogames. Not necessarily in that order. But weekends are not about order, they are about wonderful, uninhibited, guilt-free fun.

So which games are you playing this weekend to achieve the fun? 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 provide plenty:

You can wreck the dead with your dancing routines in the new <span class="bold">Crypt of the NecroDancer DLC</span>
You can crawl into the labyrinthine dungeon of <span class="bold">Barony: Cursed Edition</span>
You can catch up to the upcoming <span class="bold">Blood and Wine</span> expansion for <span class="bold">The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt</span>
You can puzzle/platform your way into the enigmatic heart of the <span class="bold">Braid</span>
You can solve this giant riddle of an island as <span class="bold">The Witness</span>
You can blow away aliens with a super-tank in <span class="bold">Uprising 2: Lead and Destroy</span>
You can build your own <span class="bold">Goliath</span> and play fisticuffs with huge monsters
You can blast into space and become a <span class="bold">Star Ruler 2</span> with the new <span class="bold">DLC</span>
You can fight under the neon lights, practicing your awesome <span class="bold">Megamagic</span>
Gunna start off with Baldurs Gate Enhanced Edition, where I have a save file sitting right outside of the Temple of Bhaal in the undercity awaiting the final battle. Party is mostly evil, with poor Imoen dragged into this mess for some reason. Why do I always bring her along?

I'll be rebuilding my streak in the daily challenges in Desktop Dungeons after blowing it on a stupid mistake last week. The ladder has been shaken up recently as almost all the top players have fumbled in the past month, so if you want to start building your streak now is the time!

I think I'll get around to reinstalling Freedom Planet to play the new characters and modes that have been patched in. Probably won't get too far this weekend, but it's long overdue for me to take a look.

From there, it's moving on to the main course and the real itch I've been having lately: some multiplayer strategy. Unfortunately, I'm not sure what's the right game to scratch that itch. I'd love to play Sins of a Solar Empire Rebellion, but sadly we're still waiting on the patch that will combine the GOG and Steam multiplayer bases, so it's nearly impossible to find a match with the GOG version right now (if you have the GOG version and would like to play me, send me a PM and we'll set up a time). Pokemon Showdown is a good strategy standby, but I'm a bit burnt out of that so I doubt I'll play too many matches. Anyone got any suggestions?

Dude if you worked at McGOGnald's the entire week wouldn't you, on your weekend, go out to eat at McSteamOS or something? ;P
I might try Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri (thanks for the package that makes the GOG version a Linux native one, Amarden :D), I think I'll go for Grim Dawn and perhaps some Enter the Gungeon since that got updated recently.
I think I'll finish F.E.A.R. (I'm almost at the end of Perseus Mandate, I believe), then play some Crypt of the Necrodancer (the game is brutally difficult, but after I freed the Fox with the Glass Key -a real achievement...
Also, a few weeks ago I stopped playing Man of War at the very last mission. Time to rectify that.

I so wish I could get back to The Withcer 3 with all the expansions, too (hoping it has been better optimized in the meantime, having finished the main game this last summer)...

Friday 13th, guess I'll play some more RE: Revelations tonight instead of going out.
Maybe some BG or Victor Vran's later, or tomorrow...
Off the top of my head, I'm looking at -

Transistor
Realms of the Haunting
Archimedean Dynasty
Lands of Lore 1
Al-Qadim

All stuff I haven't played before, all stuff I want to beat sooner rather than later.

Should probably start my 7 clan run of Bloodlines sometime soon as well. That's going to take a while.

I'm going to start with Star Wars Battlefront. If i have time I'll follow that up with The Old Republic and the Doom 3 expansion Resurrection of Evil.

If i wasn't raising new puppies, i have 6 husky/English Mastiff pups, I'd probably be able to get in some Neverwinter Nights and XCOM 2 in.

Have fun all.
Risen 2 for me this weekend.
No videogames during the weekend for me: I'll be doing outdoor activities all day long!
Wolfenstein the Old Blood. Then I start Dawn of War 2.

drealmer7: If the weather cooperates, I'm going to be outside flying kites and hiking tomorrow. I'll probably get some gardening done too, and sunday will be a day for mostly all work.

mecharma: So Stardew Valley?
Nope! The real thing! I've got still 50+ tomato spouts to plant and a bunch of other seeds to get in the ground! It always seems never-ending until I am DONE and then it is like "woah, it's done!"
For me on the menu

On PC replay "Remember Me" and perhaps try to finish "The Division" (50% chance)

On PSV, replay "Gravity Rush" and/or "Persona 4 Golden"
