Sorta weened off of Dave the Diver but started it back up again. What's great is that they keep introducing new mechanics that (no pun intended) hook me in again. I previously spent a ton of time (pre-Klaus fight) in the fishing + sushi bar loop, but now that I've continued the story, more interesting things are being introduced. Also, Klaus was a weird spike in difficulty—you go from the easy Giant Squid fight into the Klaus fight thinking it's gonna be similar and BAM! you get a spike in difficulty.

Also planning on trying to get into Planet Coaster if I have time. It's been in my Steam library FOR YEARS but I haven't mustered up the energy to learn it. I tried once but was turned off by the fact that you can't make large plaza areas, only single pathways. But I found a YouTube tutorial that seems to have a workaround for this. LASTLY, I might boot up Civ 6, but I'm afraid of re-learning it's mechanics again.

Just started playing Grim Dawn again while waiting for Baldur's Gate 3.

Mostly "Against the Storm", an Early Access Steam title.

The Finals season 3

And lots and lots of Redout 2.

Forbidden West on weekends

pikmin 4! so excited to finally have my hands on a new pikmin game. the game is very streamlined and a lot of the minor annoyances of the older games have been eliminated by one design choice or another, and it is just really easy to sit down and play.

would recommend for new players and fans of the series.

ESO, picked it up because it was free and I have some friends who play it. The difficulty spike from literally anywhere else in the world and the imperial city is nuts, kind of wish every zone was this tough. I could do without the PvP though, I got floored pretty much any time another player showed up. Worth it for those extra skill points though.

Just finished Final Fantasy XVI and feel vaguely disappointed and unsatisfied. The story kinda fell apart in the last third.

2 weeks until Baldur's Gate 3, no idea what I'll do until then.

A bit behind the curve, but I just finished The Return of the Obra Dinn. Wonderful game, I took the time to 100% it and it was very rewarding.

Haven't touched RimWorld in a few years. Got addicted to it again this week. Hopefully soon it will pass.

I'm surprised nobody else is playing Remnant 2. It just came out and it's pretty damn fun.

They called the original "Dark Souls with guns" and it's definitely that sort of game in the sequel. But it's not as punishing as a typical souls-like since there's no death penalty. It's perfect for my preferences since I hate the "losing all your money when you die" thing in Elden Ring.

Apparently it's very fun in co-op but I have been playing solo so I can't speak to that.

At only $50, it's a pretty solid recommendation from me if "dark souls with guns" piques your curiosity even a little. AA title with no jank and I've only seen a single bug so far in my playing on XSX.

Return to Monkey Island, Vampire Survivors and Northgard.

Plus, my boss bought an arcade cabinet for the office, so I've been playing lots of different arcade games, mostly Golden Axe, Bubble Bobble and Street Fighter II

Started a fresh play of Mindustry this week and forgot how much I enjoy it. I play primarily on PC now to save my hands, but the mobile apps are free if someone wants to try it out!

Diablo 4 with my wife, and replaying GTA V. Both have been a lot of fun.
