Playing Now:

Rimworld, again. Basically any gaps between any other games, I start up a new Rimworld campaign. My most played game of all time at this point.

Completed Recently:

Friendly Neighborhood: Survival horror game but with muppets. I initially dismissed it as a FNAF clone, but it is much closer to a Biohazard game. Fun, not long at all, which is a plus in my books these days. Might play it more later to get more endings.

FFXVI: Was okay, probably falls smack dab in the middle of my FF tier hierarchy. Definitely had some major issues with it, but it ended up exceeding my expectations in other areas. Story was interesting enough to make me want to see it through to the end.

Seems everyone is playing Rimworld these days.

Everyone's playing it these days for a reason. The game is the definition of replayability and when a new(successful) colony can give you an engaging experience for dozens of hours it's always a staple in my library when I don't know what else to play. The game is variable and engaging from start to finish with just vanilla alone and adding the vibrant modding community just makes it that much better.

It's an almost infinite content platform with mods, and it has a massive modding community. Can be sci-fi, western, fantasy, whatever.

It did take me a few tries for it to "click" for me, but it is easily my favourite game I have ever played by now.
