I’m enjoying Control. It’s pretty good fun to play, but the story has really grabbed me.
I’ve started on X4, and love it!
Battlefield Bad Company 2 (from 2010)
It’s still very much playable in multiplayer! If you happen to have a copy - via “Project Rome” you litterally just have to drop one file from them into the game folder and boom - you got a working server browser again! I forgot how incredible the sound design in this game is.
People are still playing? That’s tempting, I still haven’t found something that hits the spot this game did.
I got myself mildly addicted to Mindustry. Wiping out enemy bases can be pretty satisfying.
I’m addicted to Mindustry, and I wouldn’t say it’s mild lol. Started playing it a few months ago, absolutely love it
BattleBit Remastered
I’m not sure if it counts for patient gaming but it’s super lightweight and so damn fun.
I’m playing Read Dead Redemption 2 for the first time, it’s a really good game
Been playing for the first time Disco Elysium, but also have Kingdom Come:Deliverance and Titanfall 2 (Although I played it already 6 years ago) installed on my PC after getting them on deep sale recently.
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.
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.
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.
Started playing Factorio again with a friend, been fun so far. Just today I played Tooth and Tail again which is really cool, as well as Skullgirls Second Encore which I’m not great at but is still fun.
Atomicrops. It’s a solid rogue-lite farming game that is a lot of fun to just pop into and make a run.
I’m playing Pacific Drive right now. Its pretty fun and spooky
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.
Returned to my 3DS and playing Etrian Odyssey 4. That series is great for party based dungeon crawls, with a good amount of choices for how you want to build your party.
