Play it ASAP, it's great.
I just finished my first playthrough and wanted to start a new game immediately afterward. I've never felt like that after a game before. Disco Elysium is an amazing game.
Mass Effect Legendary Edition.
Never played ME, before, but I hear it's pretty good.
Me too. I have the "old" versions "Mass Effect 2007", "Mass Effect 2 2010" and "Mass Effect 2 (2010) Edition" (for some reasons there are two versions of old ME2) on Steam and was about to buy Legendary Edition and finally getting started to play. But I'm not happy with the additional requirements of it, as it requires Origin client and an EA account to play this single player game. This is unacceptable to me. Old versions do not require this.
So after my research and being confused of multiple versions and if the Legendary Edition is worth it, lost interest. But ME2 is still on my list to play soon.
You can mod the first three to get it close to par with the Legendary edition. The improvements they made in LE on all 3 make it worth playing, but if a user account is your limit I guess not. There are a ton of mods for LE now as well.
I play most PC games without modding, especially because I'm on Linux. I've compared and read about the improvements, and to its just minimal changes. Only the first game got huge improvements, but I'm more interested into playing 2 only. And as someone playing lot of old games and emulate old systems, its totally fine with me. I even played GTA 4 (last year and this) without modding on PC, but still have to finish it.
I'm jealous of a 1st play through. It's incredible.
That's what I keep hearing! Looking forward to a good space opera

Can't wait to find someone who will play It Takes Two with me. As the name suggests, it takes two people to play and I am but one person. :(
Hope you find someone. I played it with my wife, and didn't expect too much, but it was actually one of the better games I've played. Truly fantastic level and puzzle design.

Baba is you. I know the game was made by people much smarter than I am, I know I'm going to get stuck chasing a bad idea for 30+ minutes..
I have just not been feeling puzzley lately.
Elden Ring.
I've bought it on sale knowing my PC can't run it. As soon as I finally update it that's the first game I'm gonna install.
I feel this. I've been playing it on medium-ish settings to compensate. It will be a blast when you do play!

The Witcher 3
Gotta finally make it through The Witcher 1 first and then play The Witcher 2. The first game in the series is so rough around the edges (even after many patches) that this is easier said than done. I hate jumping into the middle of a game series due to the fear of missing out on references and character backstories, which is why I'm torturing myself like this.
I highly recommend skipping straight to witcher 3 unless you really love the series and want to consume everything it has. Still, 3 + the dlc has a lot.
TBH my favorite part of W3 was all the side quests. The writing and dialogue are intriguing and give you more of a flavor for the dark fantasy of the world.
Fortunately, if you need character backstories and such, you could instead read the books or watch the TV series instead. I jumped straight into Witcher 3 and had no issues with missing background knowledge.
That's not to say you shouldn't play 1 or 2 though, just that there are other options.
i have spiritfarer but my mom is on the way out and I'm waiting to play it until i need it
If you're looking for more like it, Gris is on sale for 1.50 right now on steam. Beautiful game with similar themes.
Pacific Drive for me! Played the demo and it seemed a pretty chill scavenging and driving game. I'll get to it once I'm done with The Outer Worlds and its DLC.
Looked through all of my games on Steam Deck and forgot I had a few. None of them I can't say I'm really interested in right now, but I'm somewhat excited about Psychonauts because I've heard good things about it.
Return of the obra dinn
I feel like it's a game to be played in one long go, so I'm waiting for the right time.
Hades Baldur's Gate 3 Witcher 3 Dark Souls 3 Elden Ring Path of Exile II Zelda Breath of the Wild (Switch II?) Z BotW II
My backlog and my library are huge so I'll choose a few (in no particular order):
- Baldur's Gate 3
- Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood
- Inscryption
- Hades
- Hollow Knight
- Outer Wilds DLC (I've been putting it off because it's supposedly scary)
- Stray
- Little Kitty, Big City
- Monster Train
- Moonstone Island
It's worth noting that the "scary" parts of the Outer Wilds DLC (are very mild, and) are not mandatory. That is to say, for the most part, if you find solving a part of the game too stressful, try approaching it differently.
I loved the base game and DLC. Should be the top of any backlog IMO.

Main backlog I actually want to play currently:
- Greedfall 2
- Cassette Beasts
- Shell Runner
- Selaco
- The entire Atelier series (Ryza 1+2, Sophie 1+2)
- Isles of Adalar (note that this game's development is on-hold currently)
- Construction Simulator 3
- Dishonored 1+2
- Monomyth
If you can't tell from Isles of Adalar and Monomyth, any game that looks like a Morrowind knock-off is a high priority for me. :P
In reality though, I'll just play more Avorion and Starsector.
Do yourself a favor and stop putting off Cassette Beasts. Every time I play it, I am gobstruck that an indie team made this and sells it for a fraction of the price of whatever mediocrity Pokemon is pumping out.
I could sing it's praises all day, but I'd rather just politely nudge you to push it up the list.
A good chunk of the 3DS library. So many titles I haven't gotten around to yet.
I need to eventually finish monster hunter iceborne and then play Rise! I have a feeling I'll probably end up just jumping to wilds though. It'll probably be hard to go back to older titles when that game releases.
The Yakuza series! I have only finished zero, 1 & 2. They release them faster than I'm getting to them lol.
Monster hunter mentioned!
I really want to tell you to give rise a try because the sunbreak expansion is absolute peak monster hunter, but I agree that february 28th release date is creeping up way too fast...
I want to try it so badly! I loved that they leaned into the Japanese themes and imagery, too. I think I'll definitely have to make some time to play it.
I want to also play persona 3 for the first time, but it's like 100 hours or so, and I look at that number and think, "That'll take me 6 months to finish." Haha maybe I'll hermit myself inside the house this winter and smash it out in half that time
Frog Detective 3! I absolutely loved Frog Detective 1&2 but for some reason haven't gotten around to 3.
Sekiro. Friends tell me it's one of the harder From Software games so I'm looking forward to die many times.
Witcher 3.
Half Life Alyx
I've given up. I'm going to just keep adding to wishlist and nibble on a new one every now and then.
I feel this. In some ways it was a relief discovering that I didn't need to keep up with gaming anymore. I would just play what I want want to play, when. But unfortunately I've missed (or even forgotten) about a lot of games I really wanted to play.
I keep mine in an ever growing wishlist, which I never get back to, but it stops me from feeling like I forgot anything.
Planescape: Torment
Waiting to get a better eyeglass prescription so I can read the tiny text
Metal Gear Solid V >:)
I bought that game day one, actually played like the first 4 missions, thought to myself "Wow, this is going to be incredible! I should wait until I have a loong weekend, hehe~", and then never touched it again.
I am glacially making my way through the first 4 now, though.
Horizon Zero Dawn, Planet of Lana
When you get around to HZD, the DLC Frozen Wilds and Horizon: Forbidden West are highly recommended. I'm halfway through the second and it's so amazing.

Remnant 2. Gotta finish Cyberpunk 2077 (again) first though. The damn DLC adding extra achievements has thrown everything off!
Animal well and wingspan. I think there are others too, despite trying hard to keep stuff in my wishlist instead of backlog.
Mostly my backlog comes from starting a game and then getting distracted by something else.
wingspan
i love both the physical and digital versions of this game. 🕊️
