TES Skyrim - It's like a hideout for the past 11 years. Grim Dawn - Use it to get rid of the stress. The Sims 3 - When I want to build something.
For now I'm playing Battlebit Remastered and Remnant From the Ashes whilst I wait for the Early Access release of Remnant 2.
Just wrapped up getting gold on every license in GT7 last night. Looking at the rest of the trophies and aiming for my first platinum.
Have put a fair few hours into Space Haven, but think I may have reached the end of the playable content I enjoy for now. Maybe I need to do a pirate run…
Game called Necesse. Still early access but what's out now feels like terraria (pre hard mode only) mixed with a colony sim. Super excited to see where it goes in the future.
My nephew is really into Plants vs Zombies, and I'll admit, it's sucked me in too. I'm trying to impress him by getting my name at a respectable position on the Endless Leaderboard on Xbox, but I'm having some trouble with my controller missing button presses when I go to arm a Cob Cannon for missile launch.
I can't believe I'm actually considering upgrading to an Xbox Series S in order to get smoother performance out of Plants Vs Fucking Zombies...
Nearing the end of Trails of Cold Steel IV after spending the past several months working my way from Cold Steel I. I'm planning to get Trails into Reverie at some point, but will probably play the fan-translated Kuro no Kiseki first.
Halls of Torment. $5 game on steam that is like a Vampire Survivors clone, but with more rpg elements to it.
I've been playing Exoprimal. I definitely wouldn't have paid $60 for it, but it's actually pretty fun - even though it's primarily PVE, it really scratches the role-based hero gameplay I wanted out of Overwatch's smoking wreck. In fact, keeping the shift primarily away from PVP (usually until endgame of each round) makes it so if you're getting bodied by a much better team, you still get to play before having your group inefficiencies exposed at the end. That's much better than an entire match being miserable with constant respawning.
I've been playing a lot of rainbow six siege quick play and call of duty MW2's DMZ game modes. I feel like one gives me the tactical fair shooter, and the other gives me a meaningfully paced combat loop.
Im a little pissed that the battle pass for diablo 4 doesn't work with my regular character. I just feel so estranged from that game since it costed so much and the combat and tasks just felt so dry. I guess the upside is that I have 90 days of the pass to hack away at it which isn't terribly pressing. I just wish their monetization strategy was like Halo Infinites battle passes where you could choose which one to progress on.
Played through Persona 4 Golden this week and to fix my post persona depression I started Persona 5 Royal today.
Eternal Return just launched out of beta so I'm going to be grinding that for the foreseeable future.
Shadow of the Tomb Raider.
Testing out the new WoW talent system and likely will swap back to private servers while I wait for one called Project Epoch. That and Skyrim on switch or Among Us if my kids make me play with them.
Hogwarts Legacy for PC. It’s a blast. There’s so much to do and explore. I’ve logged twenty hours and I’m not even halfway through the main storyline.
Finally a bit of Counter-Strike 2. Almost felt guilty for not being able to play much despite getting the coveted beta invite.
Elden Ring. Vyke's War Spear and Madness only run. You can get the spear without a single fight.
I’ve been playing Helldivers. Local 2 player co-op with an additional +2 online. Arrowhead, if you can hear me, please let the sequel have this as well. The multiplayer/co-op is what has given this game its longevity. It’s so much fun plain and simple!
I recently finished Storyteller. It's a short game and you can finish it in a day, but boy does it look gorgeous and boy does it keep your noggin activated.
A bit of Oxenfree II. It's good so far. Their previous game Afterparty was a pretty limp experience IMO, but they've won me back. It's been a weirdly nostalgic time and the writing is solid. It leans on much of the lore of the first title, which means the mystery isn't so interesting this time around. But we'll see how it goes, it might surprise me.
Ys 8. My first Ys game and damn it is awesome..
Sekiro. It's hard.
Finally getting around to Assassin's Creed Origins. As a lifelong fan of the franchise, I'm still coming to grips with the changes, but it is not bad at all.@quinten
