    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!

    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.

    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.

    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 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.

    Playing Yakuza 3. I’ve basically played one each year starting from Yakuza 0 and I’m really enjoying the pace. I find I get a bit tired of the game around 3/4 in, so I don’t think I could handle playing them back-to-back.

    Aside from that, I’ve been playing:

    • Cities Skylines II - performance seems to largely be fixed, so I finally broke down a bought it; will probably play it some more during the holiday season
    • Dragon Age: Origins - I usually burn out on RPGs, so hopefully this one sticks, because it looks interesting

    I’m also playing through a bunch of games I’ve owned for a while, such as some random point and click games (Syberia, Agatha Chrisie games, etc) and some random platformers. I’m basically forcing myself to finish two games I already have before getting more, and I’ve found some fun gems.

    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.

    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
