I'm currently playing Dragon Quest Builders 2 (for the third time lol), Final Fantasy X and Cult of the Lamb.
The only new games I've played this year are Sea of Stars and the Pokemon DLC (which I'm looking forward to the second part of)
I recommend everything here especially Sea of Stars.
I'm building my huge black marble illuminati upside-down pyramid in Valheim. I'm mostly done now, hopefully the new expansion will be out soon.
Valheim is another multiplayer game option for me that I'm considering. Also, good luck!
Street fighter vi has consumed my life...I really need to diversify my game time. I still have elden ring to finish and the last of us.
I played Baldur's Gate 1 and started playing 2 a few days ago. It took me some time to get used to how things work in the games (I have no experience with d&d so some things where quite hard to understand in the beginning), but I really love the games. The themes and story are great and I am really amazed at the amount of interactions that are possible and what kind things you are allowed to say. Like, you can criticize Baldurans colonialism in 1 in a random dialogue that is not really important for making progress in the game, for example. Or you can rescue the drow Viconia who is basically only prosecuted for her skin color in both games. Also class difference is a major theme in 2 and I like how it is even present in your own party. I'm also really looking forward to kill some slavers when I'm powerful enough.
GLOOOOOM WOOOOOOOOD, i really, really love this game, even though updates take years and it probably wont be finished any time soon, its still one of the best old school style shooters made in recent years and the aesthetic is so charming, its the perfect game to play on a snowy evening
Been playing Dwarf Fortress lately. Trying to get some Serious Sam 3 going right now. Hoping the world does a big RETVRN to Zdaemon CTF.
The gaming situation is bleak right now. I've got tons of games, and there are tons more out there, but I'm not excited about anything.
Picked up Tears of the Kingdom again. Its fun but I think its just a bit too long, I was ready to wrap things up before I had even explored the last two regions. I guess playing Breath of the Wild not long before TOTK didn't help.
Also, Pokemon Showdown, as always. Been ploughing through the low ladder on random battles, and I've switched from VGC doubles to OU singles because there's not been enough VGC changes to keep my interested.
Also pirated the Sims 4 with all the DLC. Made myself, applied to college, got terrible grades somehow (I genuinely dont know what I did wrong) and then had to drop out because I was broke. So that got a bit too real
Infra Arcana(awesome, free, roguelike), trying out Super mario world rom hack - Nachos and fried oreos and jump 1/2.
I might get Hyper Demon at some point, it looks dope and enjoyed Devil Daggers. Might get steam Dwarf Fortress too(whenever I play the free version lose a week or two of my life, then don't touch it for a year and starting to get the itch again). I have Final Fantasy Tactics on my list to play. Also sorta want to play a puzzle game, not sure which though--maybe actually finish Baba is You.
I don't really pay attention to recent releases or keep up on that stuff, so nothing to say about 2023 games.
