Patient Gamers

Making a second attempt to get into Mass Effect for the first time, at least until Hades 2 gets out of early access or MH Wilds comes out

Everspace once I'm back from my holidays abroad.

On one hand, I really want to continue of Ghost of Tsushima.

On the other hand, I have Genshin Impact installed that Ive been meaning to try (reddit and my younger sister tell me its easily possible to do all but the highest level stuff without spending any money,/gambling and even said content is still doable with skill).

Though in the end, Ill probably default to Stardew Valley 😂

No Man’s Sky for sure will be one I play a lot. I also need an Arceus, so I am going to have to get Pokémon Brilliant Diamond, or Shining Pearl.

I'm trying something new to me: Skyrim.

I've just got sifu from egs and will probably get either dreadhunter or windblown somewhere down the line. Along with regular runs on Dead Cells that I'm deeply addicted to.

At some point, probably after my steam deck is fixed, I'm gonna have to start Psychonauts 1. It's been sitting in my steam library for a while and I'm positive a steam deck would be able to play through it just fine, and better than both my desktop and laptop.

I've just recently started playing through Wasteland 3. Been trying to start up Civ VI, but it appears as though Steam has broken it on my Mac, so I will need an alternative alternative. Maybe something from my Epic or GOG library, so my kids don't leave me out of luck when they want to use the Steam library, too.

I finally decided to go further than the elevator in MGS, so probably that, and hopefully follow up with the whole franchise (i only played mgs5 for about 5 hours).

I also started playing Black Book, interesting deck building game !

I’m currently playing echoes of wisdom and elder scrolls: oblivion.

Although I drunkenly played GTA4 while listening to early 2000s crunk rap in memory of it being 25 years since 2000

Played some Doom 2 (halfway through Deck the Underhalls) today, gonna play Skyrim now (started new playthrough few weeks ago). After finishing Underhalls I'm gonna proceed to play even more Doom, and after finishing Skyrim I definitely wanna play more Morrowind, some big things released recently [1] [2].

Returned to Elite Dangerous after an almost two year break. Just casually space trucking to grind out some credits while watching youtube. Once I get enough to outfit one or two new ships, I plan to finally give exploration/exobiology a try, and check out the changes to the engineering grind.

When I last played, I was kind of at the end of what I'd consider "early game", but there are a decent amount of learning cliffs. Should probably practice some of the other low level content again before moving on.

One of my cousins asked for the game for Christmas and I picked it up on sale for him, so I'm hoping we can play some together at some point.

Fallout New Vegas, finally getting around to playing it!

I just installed MGS5 and Ground Zeros. Having never played a Metal Gear game, so I might hate it but I want to try.

I finally got to Pillars of Eternity. (Not very surprisingly) It gives me strong Baldurs Gate 1 vibes, and it is pretty good so far.

I'm currently playing Fire Emblem: three houses, restarted it last month and intend to finish it this year. Iight finish echoes of wisdom first, since it's shorter.

Still on poe2 for now. Over 250 hours in by now and don't feel like stopping any time soon. I took time off from work when it launched and I'm getting back tomorrow so will have to learn how to balance the two now.

The binding of Isaac.

There's a bug update I've heard and I want to go back to see how it goes.

Just started on the Witcher series. Went pretty cheap on the steam winter sale. Looking forward to it.

Dishonoured, Uncharted Collection

Dredge, Disco Elysium and Mines of Moria

Re-re-replaying Deus Ex: Mankind Divided.

I'm not sure yet, tangentially related but is there a community to get gaming suggestions here?

Of newer games i am considering super mario bros wonder or tears of the kingdom. But i also never played metroid prime (had it on gc but hated the controls) - just not sure if i want to play it on wii (i liked corruption controls) or the remastered version om switch.

Ill probably also start a ds game i never got to play in parallel.

Maybe uncharted on ps3? Never playes those. As you can see i have not yet decided :p

Started playing Horizon Forbidden West again on my Christmas vacation. I put it down after completing the first area, but have some renewed interest.

I am also finishing up Death's Door on my Steam Deck, which is a great little game.

I am also going to try something I did in the past to help get me through some games. I'm going to set a goal of completing 2 games a month. The biggest issue in the past was not putting down games that weren't interesting me enough. I have the free time, just need that extra motivation.

I am a few hours into Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. The first couple hours were unfortunately spent troubleshooting, so my overall impression is less good than Human Revolution, but now I’m picking up good speed on it.

I've got Pentiment and Persona 5 ready to go. I'll probably start Pentiment first since it's undoubtedly shorter.
Balatro looks really tempting, too, but I'd want that for my laptop or phone (?) and not my gaming PC.

Either Return of the Obra Dinn or Tyranny. Tyranny has been in my steam backlog for a little bit, but it feels like something I need to be ready to get mentally invested in

Spiritfall. Got it during the steam sale and I'm interested but haven't played yet. Looks like a lot of fun.

Dune Imperium: Uprising. Gotten my whole group into it. Might organise a tournament for the heck of it.

Just started Disgaea 1. For whatever reason I've bounced off this game half a dozen times since first trying it all the way back at release, but I've more or less settled into a groove with it now.

Having a good time with it, though I'm wondering if I should pick up a manual or something somewhere. Kind of obtuse systems and details I'd normally be able to get out of the UI, but not here.

Finally grabbed a copy of Sekiro, and though I’ve never been much of a fan of uncompromisingly punishing games, I’m optimistic that this will be the one that gets me there.

Haven’t started it yet, so it’s possible, if not likely that it’s going to kick my ass.

I started playing No Man’s Sky again recently. My game from XBox didn’t transfer to Steam and I didn’t feel like trying to troubleshoot it, so I just started fresh. I’ll probably play that until my new character has unlocked everything.
I also picked up Stray and haven’t yet gotten into it much. I also recently bought Everspace, but haven’t even started the game yet. Soon, though.

I’m going to try getting back into RDR2, and start on Undertale and Prey. Maybe Shadowrun: Hong Kong and Fallout 4?

Started Grim Dawn (ARPG) and Genesis Order (AVN, although I suppose that one is fairly recent).

I'm still trying to finish 2016 Doom, but life has been literally Deck blocking me for the past few months, so it's been slow going.

If i finish that game in the next few weeks, I'm going to go back and give Doom Eternal another second chance again once more. I've given it a try a number of times, just like I gave 2016 Doom a try numerous times with no luck. However, this year Doom suddenly clicked for me, and I've been playing it every chance I get (which is not much or often), so I'm thinking that may translate into finding a bit of love for Doom Eternal, even though I know they are very different games with different approaches to game play.

If that doesn't work out, then I've got a few games that I've technically "started", but I haven't gotten very far in. So, if and when I decide to pick them up again, I'll either restart them because I'm not far along enough for it to make much difference OR I'll continue playing but it's so early in the game that it's basically the same as starting from the beginning.

One game I've just recently been dabbling with is a slightly older game called "Halls of Torment". Similarish in game play to one of my other favorites "Vampire Survivors", it seems like a lot of fun. I've also recently purchased the Resident Evil 4 remake and it's a nice dose of nostalgia even though I much prefer the wiimote controls of the Wii version that I first played it on.

I'm going to be honest, Hades II hasn't really clicked for me yet and I've given it lots of tries. The first game had me hooked almost instantly, so I was hoping to find that same connection with the sequel. So far, it's not happened. Having said that, I saw that there's a new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game in a similar style as Hades, so I got that to play. So far I like the game, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles : Splintered Fate, but I'm not far enough along in it to have a strong opinion.

And my trusty, reliable back-up plan if nothing else works out? Castlevania Dominus Collection. The Castlevania "Metroidvanias" are my favorites. I've played all of these DS games on the original hardware, but it's been so long since I played them, it will be like starting anew. Except in this case, there will be no question as to whether I will enjoy the game or not since I played them all before and loved them.

Pokémon Crystal and Red Ded Redemption 2

Just picked up a PS5 finally. Price dropped and tax free. First thing I did was go to the library. They had a copy of RoboCop Rogue city available which is perfect for me.

I've already put a hold on the dead space remake

I just started the thaumaturge and it's freaking awesome. Looking forward to Stalker 2 later this year after they patched it a bit more

Some ESO, some Counter-Strike in the usual amounts, however I just bought GTA IV and want to finally play the story instead of just ducking around with RPGs and "the swing" 😁
