Hello everyone. What are you playing this month?
I finally got around to playing Celeste after it's been sitting on my Steam library for over a year.
As you can probably tell, I have felt some pain. But it's pain that came with a lot of fun and a good story. I ended up collecting 100 strawberries before reaching the top of the mountain, with just a little over 1000 deaths on my first playthrough.
Beyond that, I've also picked up a few games for super cheap on the Steam Racing Fest. Anyone who knows me knows that I am a racing game junkie to my core.
I'd love to hear what you guys are up to.

Im still playing The Bazaar. They fixed up the most issues the community had with the monetization and progress of the game after 1 month of full release and it has been a blast since. Highly encourage anyone who is thinking about trying it but isnt sure going for it. 13th August will start a new season and I think they will release a new hero (5th one), so either jump in right now to learn the ropes, or wait for new season and start on the hype train :)
Had some free time so finally got to 3D Print some more stuff, nothing for tabletop games yet (other than some props for dnd) as I still have some problems with "big" stuff in my 3D printer.
During last month I was able to get a full time job and I am not as pressured on making buck with the printer and got some more "Stupid stuff" done than I would have done otherwise (for example, that "device" to charge your phone in any plug and let it rest there or my NES cartdrige switch card holder or page marker)
Other than that the usual suspects and got into Tiny Tina's Wonderlands wich I have had for a long time but never touched after Borderlands 3 just dissapointed me.
Main Story and sidequests were pretty fun!.
Also got into Mario Kart World (Got mirror mode unlocked) and Mario & Luigi Brothership. Other than that, I had a job for a friend paid with a nintendo gift card so I upgraded my TLOZ: BOTW and TOTK to their Switch 2 editions and been having some fun hunting rare monsters I missed for kilton and in the case of TOTK getting those final shrines thanks to the new GPS system. I got bored after finishing it and was not feeling it for looking all the missing shrines (around 25) but time has made me willing to keep going.
I finally started Baldur’s Gate 3, and it’s completely wrecking my schedule. I told myself I’d only play for an hour or two at a time, but that never happens. I’ll start a conversation with an NPC, make a choice, end up in a fight, and suddenly it’s 1AM. I haven’t even scratched the surface yet, still in Act 1 and I’m already overwhelmed by how much there is to do. It’s a game that makes you want to explore every little corner just in case you miss something cool. I can see this one lasting me months.

Wow. I'm really happy about your new job. All that 3D printing stuff is really cool too.
Steam Perfect Game #5
The last achievement I had was for 200 kills in Hide and Seek mode, and my friend group I normally play with refused to help me grind for it. :(
But I got it in the end by just going ham on public lobbies all day long.
I've even thought of making a thread specifically for people showing off their fully completed achievement list/platinum trophies which could double as a way for people to find people to help grind certain achievements with.
That would be a great idea. Have helped 2 or 3 times someone with those kinds of achivements but it can be really hard to find someone willing to spend that time grinding. Naruto Ninja Storm 2 (Online) and Payday 2 are the ones I remember the most helping. Payday 2 being the one I spent the most time on. Some achivements requiere a lot of time and good team mates (at least back then when the bots were horrible, do not know how well they do now) at the same time
Just got into Megaman Xdive offline this month and finished it as well as Tears of the kingdom. So I can say it has been a great month for now.
Also got Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour wich is better than I expected. And 3D printed some Mice for my switch 2 mouse as the straps leave my hands aching after 20 minutes.
My number of perfect steam games has now hit 12!
