General Gaming Megathread: What are you playing?

Finished the Absolum demo, the new beat 'em up by the Streets of Rage 4 guys. Pretty fun; I like the character archetypes and playstyles, although the mechanics seem too simple, as do the enemy encounters, which aren't particularly challenging. The roguelite elements seem a bit tacked on for normie points and don't add to the game. Overall, pretty solid beat 'em up, especially given recent mediocre or outright bad offerings in the genre.

Well, I was going to start Cyberpunk, but now I have literally no way to play video games. My consoles and PC all decided to crap out on me. The only thing I have that turns on is my Switch but the stick drift is so damn bad that it is literally unplayable.

Guess I need to get a new PC. *Sigh*
 
Power supply went out of my PS5. It got played a LOT so maybe that had something to do with it? PC was shutting down on the home screen right after booting up and now won't even come on. The Xbox, same as PS. No power.

There is an alternative. If only you like books. It's about the same thing as the game. Only if you read, don't tell anyone. Victor Vector says hello. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/58751026-transhumanism-inc

Agreed, the game is astoundingly good. So good, I avoid playing it since I have a job and a house.
First time I ever played this game, I got hooked on it for like 2 weeks and slept about 4 hours each night. Not that you have to play the game, just hadn't played a game like that since high school or middle school even.

You can play it single player, multiplayer co-op, multiplayer co-op/PvP, default settings, custom settings, with or without mods, change the settings on the mods, however you want really. It's a crazy ass sandbox that you can also play as a game.
You want a lot of zombies? You got it. You want a few? You got it.
You want them to never respawn? Sure. You want them to be a constant threat no matter how often you thin their numbers? Fine.
You want them to be nearly blind, deaf, and move slowly? Okay. You want them to be apex predators that will run you down and kill you in a fit of rage for not having a shotgun at the ready? Let's go.
Want to be a nomad hero? A carpenter? A chef for your friends? You can!

One day, I still plan on doing either a single player or co-op play of this game with the RV mod that can be a mobile tiny home.
Last time I played with some friends, one didn't understand we were spawning together on the map and thought they'd "just meet up with us" which turned into a weekend trip of locating them, killing tons of zombies, and driving them back to our base of operations because they also didn't realize just how big and dangerous the map was.
