    Factorio (Krastorio 2 + Space Exploration mods), and just started Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood which is blowing me away so far.

      Man, I haven’t played Frontier Defense in ages. I really liked that mode but I felt like it needed some more gameplay time on foot before everyone gets their mechs. It felt like 10-90 split of on foot to mech time.

    Returnal (PC) - Still playing the Tower of Sisyphus even though I beat the game. This is the most impressed I’ve been with a Playstation “exclusive” since the PS2, it’s so good. I bet a lot of people give up on it pretty quick because of the difficulty, but I find it’s less difficult than a Souls game once you get a handle on it.

    Horizon Zero Dawn (PC) - I kinda want to get to the part where they explain the robot animals (Dr. Eggman?), but the half-assed combat and boring open world are making me not want to bother.

    20XX (PC)- It’s fun, but it’s also giving me a new appreciation for how well-designed the Mega Man games were. You’re not supposed to be hitting your head on the bottoms of platforms in games like this, lmao.

    I’m playing the latest, hottest crpg: divinity: original sin 2! I played the first years ago but had to kind of skog through it, tried playing the second one and just couldn’t get into it. With bg3 out, I want to give it a other chance, otherwise I think I have to realize that crpgs aren’t for me anymore.

    I did a near 100% run on Bondee’s Barnyard, still convinced 10/20 mode isn’t doable… but I beat literally everything else

    Didn’t continue anything at all I was playing last week! On a whim, I decided to give a little try to Dave the Diver. Like 12+ hours invested now (which is relatively large amount for me in a week…) and it’s all I’m playing. I love so much about the game. There are quirks, and things that could be improved (why on earth can’t I sort my diving pick ups while on a dive to pick the heaviest stuff to drop quickly??), but it feels very much like a “greater than the sum of its parts” game. Which is saying something, since there are a lot of parts in this game! There is enough tedious parts that are detracting enough that I doubt this will be on my top 10 of the year list, but it’s not far from it anyways. Definitely planning on finishing the story and definitely recommended!

    Remnant 2, Age of Empires 4 and GG Strive. Remnant 2 has me hooked, I really liked the first one but this game takes it to another level.

    I’ve been playing Hades again. I played it a while back, but only had like 30 attempts and 3 successes. The hype of the 64 heat run and the sequel coming soon got me back into it to hopefully finish the game.

    Salt 2 is a pretty good indie pirate game. You sail around a procedurally generated archipelago doing quests for various factions while building up your ship, and it’s pretty relaxing. It’s still in development so it’s missing features like ship to ship combat, but it’s the closest thing to a single player sea of thieves

    Playing through the Quake 2 Remaster with a nostalgic feeling. Now, having kids, I realize that I should not have had access to that at 13 yo. Distribution channels were different in 1997.
