I'm enjoying Control. It's pretty good fun to play, but the story has really grabbed me.

    I finished Nine Sols last month and I can't recommend it enough. Aside from being a great metroidvania all around: great art, great music, great combat... I was most surprised by how good the story is. The world they built is really cool. Also, it's currently on sale. Would recommend.

    Started playing Factorio again with a friend, been fun so far. Just today I played Tooth and Tail again which is really cool, as well as Skullgirls Second Encore which I'm not great at but is still fun.

    Been playing for the first time Disco Elysium, but also have Kingdom Come:Deliverance and Titanfall 2 (Although I played it already 6 years ago) installed on my PC after getting them on deep sale recently.

    On the Deck, Skyrim with mods and specifically beyond Skyrim Bruma. I have figured out how to install mods and you can sink a lot of hours in good ol' Skyrim.

    I also play Life is Strange: True Colours on the Deck.

    Additionally the farmer was replaced is a fun little Python like game where you need to write Python like code to automate the manual labor on your farm. But this I play on the desktop.

    Battlefield Bad Company 2 (from 2010)

    It's still very much playable in multiplayer! If you happen to have a copy - via "Project Rome" you litterally just have to drop one file from them into the game folder and boom - you got a working server browser again! I forgot how incredible the sound design in this game is.

    BattleBit Remastered

    I'm not sure if it counts for patient gaming but it's super lightweight and so damn fun.

    I just soft modded my old PS2 so I could boot game backups from a network share. So I'm playing Gran Turismo 3, NFS underground 2, Tony hawk's Pro skater 4, NBA street vol. 2, and GTA: San Andreas. Basically everything and anything my teenage self loved at the time.

    DOOM (2016). I originally got it when it came out, I wasn't very patient then, but largely played multiplayer. I've been playing the campaign this time around and I'm enjoying it quite a bit.

    I've been playing Pokemon Go, started back when it came out after niantic killed their other game I was playing to make pokemon go. (Not bitter at all)

    Played a few weeks gave up.

    Now I'm 30 and was out running and thought hey why not do this at the same time.

    I've been enjoying Assassin's Creed: Odyssey. It's got just the right level of compulsivity to keep me playing without destroying my life. Pretty relaxing, to be honest, although I don't think "easy" mode is actually easy!

    Replaying Kingdom Come: Deliverance, but this time no save scumming and on the Steam Deck. It's really good, but the slight vibe of sexism bugs me.

    Also playing the excellent Tactical Breach Wizards.

    HyperRogue. The lack of statted items means less time thinking andore time playing. Same complaint as many rogue likes though, it lacks a save and quit. I don't care if it makes save scumming possible, it's shitty to force people to finish a game in one sitting.

    I got myself mildly addicted to Mindustry. Wiping out enemy bases can be pretty satisfying.

    Divinity original sin 2. It is not as good as I was expecting it to be. I keep getting bored and fustrated even if I really want to like it.

    🤣 it's a 20 year old MMO called Wurm Online. The pacing and skill depth is pretty amazing for an older more patient audience.

    Starter playing "To the moon"

    Great game so far, but I wish there was controller support and it could be fullscreen instead of a small box. It makes playing on the 32" TV difficult

    Recently finished my first playthrough of Dragon's Dogma 2 and started a new one playing Rogue this time. Lots of fun and reminds me of old-school RPGs similar to Fable

    High on life. Terrible, boring gameplay. I think I'll drop it.

    Returned to my 3DS and playing Etrian Odyssey 4. That series is great for party based dungeon crawls, with a good amount of choices for how you want to build your party.

    I tried playing Bahamut Lagoon, a Japan only SNES TRPG, but had to stop due to some technical issues with the unofficial translation. The little bit I did manage to play (prologue and the first scene after that) was interesting enough so I'll definitely try again, I just need to get back to my PC so I can research what's wrong with it.

    To keep with the theme I started Jeanne d'Arc, the PSP TRPG, instead. I like the art style, animated cutscenes and gameplay. Not a huge fan of the fantastical elements but they're not a dealbreaker either. I'm not sure what to think about the story just yet - I like it for the most part but there are some things that make me a bit wary since they might potentially turn into tropes I'm not going to be happy with. It's a "wait and see" for now since I'm still pretty early on. It's good so far.

    Anyone who owned doom 1 and doom 2 got a new item in their steam or gog library with damn near everything included including stuff like sigil and a new episode they just made.

    There's a new doom 2 RTX mod that clips into that version and it combines ray tracing with voxel art to give the most impressive raycast doom 2 I've imagined so far. Well worth a look especially since it's free for a lot of gamers.

    Atomicrops. It's a solid rogue-lite farming game that is a lot of fun to just pop into and make a run.

    Oddly enough I've been playing High on Life on the Steamdeck. I give it a solid 6/10.

    The art style is cool and the characters aren't as annoying as I thought they would be, but damn is it shallow.

    All levels are basically the same but the gunplay and movement are nice enough to keep me around. I just play it while watching TV with my girlfriend. Nice mix of a wave shooter and platforming. It really reminds me of Doom in a way
