I'm currently very into Elden Ring. In a sea of gacha quest games, where you have a todo list of all quests, with arrows pointing exactly what you need to do next, Elden Ring feels very refreshing. I love how it doesn't hold my hand at all, and exploring the world is very rewarding.
It also scratches an itch I have, which is the git-gud aspect of some games, and it feels very rewarding to finally beat a boss you struggled with, or kill a dangerous enemy without taking a single hit
Plus, it literally has no quest markers.
I... like that.
