Though there's many a huge RPG to play at the moment (recite the littany: Baldur's Gate 3, Starfield, Cyberpunk 2077) many of us in the treehouse have retreated to smaller, or at least less garganutan, games for our days off this weekend. Though of course there's something called Counter-Strike 2 happening at the moment. I dunno, doesn't sound like it's important to PC or anything.

A bunch of devs are already putting up demos for their games in anticipation of Steam Next Fest coming up, so I'm going to poke around in them for a bit this weekend. Around that I might also poke around in Sticky Business. I'm supposed to be poking around in Starfield but I really, just, honestly, can't bring myself to do it.

I'm not around a great deal this weekend as I'm popping round to see the 'rents, but I'll bring my Deck with me and give Lies Of P more of a whirl. I'm hoping for a bit more Baldur's Gate 3 on Sunday eve with the pals, too. We're firmly into Act 2 and making sure we tick off absolutely everything. BG3 is bonkers good.

I'm going to try out Counter-Strike 2 and also a demo I found for something called The Hungry Fly, which I think Alice0 has covered in the past. It's a first-person bug simulator, with on-screen forelegs that rub together in that quintessential fly way. Charming!

There's a new demo for Deep Rock Galactic Survivor on Steam, and it actually changes a fair bit from the early build I played back in the summer. For instance: it is now possible for me to finish a mission without perishing alone in the darkness. Progress!

I'm on holiday for the next week, so I will be Steam Decking a bunch of different things in all likelihood, including a top secret thing
