Ori and the Blind Forest. I like the art a lot.

Started playing fallout 4 with a mod collection, I've never played fallout 4 this much, I'm enjoying it a lot .
Currently investing some time back in ESO for a bit to check out the newly released Archanist class... not super impressed so far tbh. I mostly play GW2 these days so coming back into ESO again everything feels super clunky and slow for some reason, yikes. On single player titles, I have been dipping into The Witcher 3 a bit since I recently got a new rig that can run it at top settings, which is nice.
I went Diablo 4 to Diablo 3 to Last Epoch currently. Pretty fun so far.
Iron Danger.
It's an indie tactical RPG that's RTWP similar to other CRPGs. But the main feature of it is being able to rewind time to redo actions if they don't work out, so combat ends up being similar to a puzzle as you rewind and reposition or try new attacks.
The downside is that it's linear, and has no items and very little character progression which are what it's lacking the most compared to a typical CRPG, but it's an interesting take on the style of combat.
I'm getting batocera configured so all kinds of retro games
I got a good deal on Assassin's Creed II and finally figured out how to hook up an x-box controller to my PC (yes, I'm dumb). I never played any of the AC games other than the first one when it originally came out, so I'm excited to get done with work and give it a shot.
I'm playing Satisfactory, there's something really meditative about building an enormous factory on a beautiful world
Lately, I've been obsessed with Into The Breach, a mecha vs kaiju strategy game bythe developers of FTL. It's surprisingly challenging, and more similar to chess than any other strategy computer game I've played before.
Into the Breach is GOATed with the SAUCE baby god I love everything by that team. Can't wait to see what they make next. I've put hundreds of hours into it across platforms despite being not the best at it haha
Factorio and art of rally
Final Fantasy X remake on PS Vita
I finally upgraded my graphics card to a 4070 Ti, despite the ridiculous pricing (been waiting for over 3 years to upgrade and I've using a GTX 1050 on a 1440p monitor this entire time). Now I'm working through a considerable backlog of GPU-intensive games that I was unable run well or even at all.
Started with God of War and I'm loving it! Next up is Read Dead Redemption 2.
I remain enthralled by TotK
Second. I'm taking my time and enjoying the exploration and everything. I'm sure this will keep me busy for a few months before I move to find Silksong.
I'm some ~150 hours into it at this point, haven't even gone near the depths beneath the castle. Crazy how much content there is in this game; My wife and I want to play Diablo 4 together at some point soon, but for the moment we've just been cuddling up and both playing Zelda instead ... basically since it came out.
Hotline Miami
Dead by daylight is having it's anniversary event so largely that, mixed in with BattleBots and some diablo 4
Little bit of Beyond All Reason, little bit of Battle Bit, and lots of Rocket League and PUBG
bought Spiderman Miles Morales on Steam last week, but haven't touched it, probably Sun Haven as well
Zelda, Tears of the Kingdom. Still. And probably for the next few months ;)
Death Stranding. Bought it a while back, but wasn't in the mood for a more contemplative/atmospheric game then. Now seems to be a good time to appreciate running errands!
Been going hard on Kenshi as of late. Such an amazingly unique game.
TotK. Just finished all the shrines.
I'm revisiting the Ratchet & Clank series. I picked up the original 3 games for PS3 at a local game shop, and am trying to 100% all three of them. So far I did so on the 2nd game, and am about to finish that on the 1st game.
Playing mostly Honkai Star Rail, and I’m in the middle of a Mass Effect trilogy run - quite literally, since I’m halfway through ME2.
Zelda Minish cap, super mario bros, and some pokemon Gold. just been feeling the childhood games lately
Just started Soma, which was on my Gamepass backlog. What an amazing game! Brilliant. And that comes from someone who's not a horror game fan.
Also playing Overwatch 2. Trying to find a group who plays 8-10pm NZT
Symphony of the night and Mario 64 on stream baby
Final Fantasy XVI, I’m 70% in, and I’m having a real good time.
The story is interesting and keeps you going, not convoluted or opaque like in 13 or 15.
The sidequests are very boring at first, and still mostly fetch quests / fight certain enemies, but they eventually reward you with background story of the side characters, and some of them are pretty good.
The combat keeps throwing you new stuff with a good pace.
The eikon fights are what we can get as close to Asura's Wrath sequel. Every big fights are just hype
Also the music is top notch.
This game is gonna end up as one of my top 3 favorite mainline FF games.
(edit, deleted original post, since I accidentally clicked on post before finished writing)
Detroit become human. I find many PS games that got ported to PC are good. Lots of attention to detail. Although some are hard to get into. Can they ever stop talking for a second in persona 5 strikers so we can game a bit?!?
The last weeks I played valheim on my own server with some friends. It was so relaxing. But now the newest patch broke all the mods we were using.
So now I play Jak II and wonder how my child self could manage drone of those missions. Damn that game can be hard.
Been hard on Diablo 4
and OSRS on the side because the grind never stops!
BattleBit Remastered
Such a fun game to chill out and just shoot things. Its nice that I can change the feel of the game so much by playing on different server sizes and the choice of weapons is nice.
Elden Ring again after taking a break from it for a while. Exploring new areas, it's fun.
Citizen Sleeper (discounted on GOG rn!) is really good. The timed elements are not as stressful as I thought they might be and the overall story is interesting enough to keep me playing. It does feel a bit too easy in the later stages, and I'm afraid I might have made a decision that is gonna end the game for me too early, but otherwise I'm having fun with it, can definitely recommend it if you want a sci-fi story-based / resource management game.
Caves of Qud & Rain World
Age of wonders 4! It's been awhile since I got so engaged with a 4x, and this one's got a pretty decent combat system to boot (turn based tactical).
