The Isle

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

Lord of the Rings Online!

diablo 4 and solasta mainly. still a region to finish in d4 and I wait for season 1

Still going on Diablo 4, trying to unlock all map bonuses before the first season starts so my new characters get all the bonuses.

I'm just debating getting a PS5 for FF16 🤔

Been getting back into Horizon Zero Dawn! I planned on playing more of it sooner but just wasn't finding any interest until the past couple of days. Also picked up Pokemon Scarlet for the first time in six months to try finding a shiny Gimmighoul in the limited raid event that's happening.

Final fantasy 16! It’s been great so far

I played Smushi Come Home. It's about a little mushroom making their way home. It's a platformer with some light puzzle elements. Really reminded me of A Short Hike, both in vibes and length. It clocked in at about 3 hrs but was mad cozy.

I'm working on playing through all the halo games in (in game) chronological order! Finished halo wars, halo reach, last week, and halo CE yesterday and also started on halo 2 yesterday.

I've been working through all the demos I downloaded during Next Fest so I can expand my already overstuffed wishlist. Between that I've been working through my second playthrough of Deltarune, finishing up all the stuff I missed the first time.

I just started Disney Dreamlight. Really enjoying it, nice and light plus adorable.

I started with World of Warships. I played World of Tanks for a long time but not very successfully. Now I wanted to give Ships a go. I´m at level 5 now, which (as I wasn´t aware before) is where you get thrown into real battles with real people instead of the training wheel matchmaking they have up to level 4. I´m starting to get the hang of it though.

In trying to finish Tales of Legendia for the PS2. I'm currently at the character Quest for Norma. Really liking this game despite it's age, very funny game, brilliant music and interesting characters.

Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion. Just finished it last night. Was hilarious and short. Definitely get on sale though, it's less than 3 hours to 100%.

Got myself a steam deck and what do I play on it? Euro Truck Simulator 2. This game, I tell you, it's so incredibly relaxing and doesn't take a lot of brain power so it's great to relax with while sitting on the couch in the evening. 🤷

Just started playing Mars First Logistics.

I'm getting batocera configured so all kinds of retro games

Zelda Minish cap, super mario bros, and some pokemon Gold. just been feeling the childhood games lately

I've been playing through Control, which has been pretty fun, but... I just came out of TotK and every other game so far feels a bit... shallower. I don't know how to explain it. I've also been taking breaks into Infinifactory again to finally finish it. Been a while since I've felt the itch for Zachtronics, and it feels good. The mechanical intricacy overshadows that hollow feeling.

What should I play next if TotK has set my bar so high? Will it just fade in time?

Xcom2, Crazy addictive

The outer worlds. Its pretty fun. Though kinds just Fallout with a space theme. Shame you dont get to fly the ship.

Cities Skylines. Auch wenn mich das SIMS artige DLC System nervt und ich sparsam mit Assets umgehen muss, weil sonst mein RAM voll läuft. Spaß macht es trotzdem.

Dead by daylight is having it's anniversary event so largely that, mixed in with BattleBots and some diablo 4

Been going hard on Kenshi as of late. Such an amazingly unique game.

I have had a bit of a hiatus from games due to my being unable to get into it. Games I have liked in the past were Spider-man, Ghost of Tsushima, the Yakuza series, Last judgment series and Life is Strange. Haven't been able to get sucked in a game lately. Was trying to get into Dishonored but it was usually me trying to sneak around and then getting caught and killing everyone/running away. Then I felt bad looking at all the rats and the zombie-like people. Started outer wilds and it is a nice change of pace. And Stardew Valley has been good too. On and off for these two games but I could see myself playing them more

bought Spiderman Miles Morales on Steam last week, but haven't touched it, probably Sun Haven as well

Diablo 4 is my bread and butter right now... with a side of Dredge on my Switch.

Souldiers was on sale, and I have been wanting to play the game for a really long time. It got a lot of flack on it's release, because of bugs and performance issues, as well as complaints about difficulty, and class viability.

Well, IDK if the devs had to fix a lot of it or what, but it is in great shape now, and I kinda regret not playing it earlier. This game is fantastic! Great action RPG mechanics, combined with really great encounter design. All set in beautiful pixel art. I think it is kind of a mistake for it to throw you in a hard dungeon right away, and that is turning a lot of people off. But the design of all the encounters had me get through it.

I really like this game, and think the reception it got right off the bat is super unfortunate. I hope the developers aren't discouraged from making something else like this again, and can instead file off the rough edges that made it unpalatable to a large audience. I feel like the quality of the graphics really drew a lot of people in that weren't down for what Souldiers was going for. But it is quickly becoming my favorite metroidvania-ish action platformer RPG.

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.

Conan Exiles. I've had it in my library for ages but never gave it much thought. I'm having a lot of fun building my fortress and converting the locals to be my thralls.

Ghostrunner. I had a go at it some time ago, but it didn't really hold my attention. This time it's grabbed me. Super fast-paced and fun action, with an okay story (I'm not finished the story, but so far it feels fairly generic and that it'd building to a pretty obvious reveal) that I'm enjoying. If anyone is a fan of Mirror's Edge, I recommend this game; it's scratching the same itches for me, at least.
