Team Fortress 2 reaches new player count record at 250k players
I loaded up TF2 a few months ago just for a quick game, expecting to get into yet another round of I'm-so-over-it 2fort.
What happened instead of that was a completely nostalgic get-into-any-map-I-wanted round after round of full servers like I'd never put the game away. Dustbowl, Gravelpit, Steel, trying to re-learn all the maps, finding other players who had long since figured out new clever ways to use weapons and classes that I'd always thought of as sub-standard.
And I'm in a region where there should be less players.

Dave the Diver... WORTH EVERY SINGLE PENNY
What really sells this game? I bought it and got through the prologue and a bit of chapter 1 and don't see why it has so much popularity? It seems very okay so far but nothing amazing. Loads of unnecessary dialog.

Recently picked up Chrono Trigger - Amazing Game!
When does Chrono Trigger really start to get good? I've tried to play it a few times but it never fully holds me.

Overwatch 2 coming to Steam on August 10!

It is exactly the same as Overwatch. There is no reason at all to call it a sequel.

Why did Vic Fontaine sang entire songs in the later seasons of DS9?
So that Sisko could do a song with him as a little icing on the DS9 cake

Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor. +1million unit sold [plus more stats]
I'm not a DRG superfan and didn't expect to enjoy this, but the progression feels very solid and it's a lot of fun. Surprisingly addictive.
While it's not DRG, it feels extremely faithful to the original game and doesn't have that "too-vampire-survivorsish" feel that some of these games suffer from.
I can't really pin down what makes it so playable - my best guess is the pacing of the upgrades and the mix of the 4 classes feels like it's just right. Tunnelling through walls (and the mining speed upgrades) is also a particularly interesting mechanic.

What games have you been playing recently
Contraband Police - it's like Papers Please, but since it's in first person, it's more complex - you have to manage the whole border crossing area with the few staff you have, you have a car that you have to manually drive to a supply shop and to drop prisoners and contraband off at, and you can get ambushed along the way or at your base, where you're manually be shooting at smugglers with guns you buy.
Shadows of Doubt - A game where you play as a detective in a city and you have to solve cases (sometimes murders) and often end up committing crimes yourself along the way. A lot of cases solved used by matching faces to names to fingerprints to voices to jobs to blood type, eye colour, hair colour, age, and so on. Extremely addictive and often hilarious, despite how buggy this early access game is.
Dicey Dungeons - A roguelike deckbuilder with 6 different classes where you roll dice against cards with different effects and your enemy does the same to you. I don't love roguelikes and really don't like deck games but this one is really appealing, and has a great soundtrack. The different classes play through a LOT of different "episodes" where the rules of the game change.
also playing a lot of Heroes of the Storm every goddamn night
