Tried No Rest For The Wicked, a top-down ARPG soulslike. Nice actually. No real penalty for dying, so it's relaxed even though the bossfights are damn tough. It's in EA and there's a big update with a wipe coming up at the end of April, so I quit playing for now and will pick it up again after that. A little annoying, but that's what I get for EA.
A friend of mine asked me to play Space Marine 2 with him. We used to play various games back when, including Factorio and high-ish level Darktide, and we've always conflicted on how challenging and complex a game should be. I like mine to be barely beatable and only if you carefully theorycraft for an hour before playing and do an analysis session afterwards, and he likes to win by showing up. So Space Marine 2, a game so shallow and casual that I fall asleep thinking about it. He won, I guess. We even play on the lowest difficulty. Can't recommend, it's absolute console trash, but what don't I do for friendship.
That same friend also gave me a gift copy of Selaco, a boomer shooter. It's alright. The maps are too confusing for me, though.
And I'm further refining my playstile in Nebulous: Fleet Command. By relying on my allies to supply an Intel Center and getting rid of most of my Damage Control, I was able to free up enough budget on my three destroyers to give each a VLS with six cells of large, decently-built hybrid missiles. Too easily softkilled to take down capital ships or fleets, but just right for taking out lone scouts that might spot my origami ships. Switched to drives that offered better power economy and top speed but gutted my angular acceleration so that I now ned to pre-aim my spinal weapons well in advance, and I used the extra power to combine goood RADAR, EWAR, Fire Control and high-powered Point Defence on top of heavily-buffed Beam Cannons all in one, and all in the green power-wise. It's a sneaky fleet that can hide in plain sight, shoot down spotters at range, kill anything within 6km (provided I aim at it five minutes in advance), and evaporates as soon as it's spotted. Oh why can't I ever find anyone to play Nebulous with me...
