Vampire Survivors
Starfield and Brotato
Getting bored. Starfield is just a buggy mediocre FPS. Everything else in it is giving me serious ‘no man’s sky’ vibes and not in a good way.
Starfield is a classic case of some misleading marketing on purpose, and, well, it just falls into the perpetually doomed category of games/media that will always suffer from extremely high expectations: sci-fi/space/cyberpunk. The imagination wanders especially far with games like these, and there’s little to none us, the consumers, and they, the devs and publishers, can ever do about it.
That being said, you’re right in not praising the game. It’s a niche fun in my opinion, and only shines if you take it for what it is, but not for what it seemed to have been marketed as.
TL;DR Stafield is a Bethesda game through and through, but with a coating some Microsoft PG-13 “play it safe” attitude.
Starfield and Final Fantasy 14. Both have been hard to find time for with general lack of time in life.

Starfield: still enjoying it a lot. I know it is going to bore me eventually, but for now the exploration and personal narrative I’ve been rolling with have been enough to keep me interested.

FF14: My static fell apart and we’ve given up on Savage raiding for this tier. There is a huge backlog of activities I haven’t been able to do this whole time while Savage prog occupied 90% of my time in-game, but now I can’t choose where to start.

Armored core 6. Finished one ending yesterday and on ng+ today. I’m way more invested in faceless characters than I thought I could be and there was an unexpected anime like fight that hit me in the feels
Starfield, like a maniac.
Yeah, me too. Just shy of 140 hours in and still having a blast.
Just joined the Crimson Fleet for the first time, got my first custom spaceship that I’m happy with, still haven’t completed the UC questline, hardly dug into outposts at all…
I may be here for some time :)
Got yuzu running on Ubuntu so I’m finally play breath of the wild ! I don’t normally pirate games but I don’t want to buy a switch for one game .
Recently just got into Tunic! Amazing game!
I recently introduced Untitled Goose Game to my 10 year old daughter, and now that’s all she wants to do with me every evening after her little sister goes to bed. So… That’s pretty much all I’ve been playing.
We’ll see what the next obsession will be.
My third time through factorio. This time with K2+SE mods. It’s taking a long time. Most of the time I’m waiting for my rockets and leave it afk for hours. Total play time 800+ hours, most of which I swear is afk! I’ve almost set up an outpost for every resource now, so that should make my life much much easier.
Xenogears using EmulationStation on Steamdeck.
Dope game so far, been a while since I played a good old school jrpg.
Starfield, BG3, Battlefield 2042. Whenever I actually get time to play any of them.
Yakuza: Like a Dragon! It’s on steam sale for $12 reg version, but I bought the Hero Edition for $14. It has two extra job classes and something else I’ve forgotten. I’m 4 hours in and it’s been a LOT of character and plot set up while just scratching the surface of their turn-based combat. The story is pretty good so far and full of Japan’s particular brand of uncanny fringe humor that I’m expecting to snowball as time goes on.
Diablo 3 season 29 started last Friday and loving it!
Finally solo self found leaderboards!
Also enjoying the seasons theme, small areas with random mobs, elites, gobs and rift guardians.
Having more fun than playing D4.
Path of Exile, BG3, Last epoch…
Sea of Stars has been the only game I made time to play in months.
