Any gamers on here? What are you playing?

Right now I have Final Fantasy XIV running in the background, I'm waiting for some ore to respawn at roughly 10:42 our time. Gathering's a nice laid back experience.

After I'm done with this I'm probably gonna boot up Story Of Seasons: Pioneers Of Olive Town and do some gathering in that too. :)

I’m currently building a massive irrigation system in Timberborn and also running through BOTW again before unwrapping TOTK.

I’m pleased that there’s not so much TOTK stuff floating about here as there was on the other place, I want to go in as innocent as a newborn lamb.

The thing about getting into game dev as a hobby is that basically now you have no time to actually play other games! 😭

When I do get time, Deep Rock Galactic is a fave for those days when you just want to shoot something in the face but you don't want to do it surrounded by aggressively sexist 12 year old boys. A new season just dropped this week, which makes it sound like a typical money-hungry microtransactional mess but I swear it's not like that at all, the devs are great people and everyone should give this one a go. ROCK AND STONE!

More chill days I like to investigate the unending backlog of cozy indie games from Epic (never touched them until I got a Steam Deck but it's been great for those). Or revisit Mini Metro which on the surface is a simple af puzzle game but it's surprisingly immersive and deep.

Of course it's Steam Next Fest atm, I've only tried a couple of demos so far (Station to Station and Laysara: Summit Kingdom) but was thoroughly underwhelmed by both of them. On the other hand my husband tried the demo of Memori and got super into it, he says anyone who liked Celeste should give it a try.

Also last mention goes to Outer Wilds, I'm not "playing" it as such because it's pretty one-and-done, but it's impossible not to recommend it whenever even a slightly appropriate opportunity allows. One of the most amazingly crafted and emotionally impactful games I've played in my 30-odd years of gaming and if you've never tried it, please just trust me and go in blind it is so worth it.

Street Fighter 6. The game is too god damn addicting.

Finally started Red Dead 2 best animal petting simulator I've played I petted a bun so hard it's fur came off with my hand

i feel like i got into gta online at the worst possible time regarding the recent mercenaries update

Got back into Grim Dawn in a big way recently. Diablo IV was released at the right time for ARPG fans, but I just can't deal with all of the extra garbage that you get with Blizz games nowadays.

Dwarf Fortress! Tried and failed to get into it many times before the Steam release, and now completely hooked.

Aliens: Dark Descent. It's way better than I expected, not just in the gameplay but nailing the vibe of the movie. Fireteam Elite was a fun wave shooter but it turned the xenomorphs into cannon fodder for an action shoot-em-up. Dark Descent is survival horror. Fighting is a last resort. You spend your time creeping down dark corridors hoping you don't see a xeno, because when you do the hive wakes up and bad things happen. Like in Alien Isolation, your best bet is to watch your tracker and be where the xenomorphs aren't. Your marines can get wounded, killed, or dragged off to be an incubator. They also suffer stress, and start to freak out the longer they are in danger.

Really enjoying it so far!

I was very lucky to be gifted Tears of The Kingdom on release, been playing that for the past month, amazing game.

Starcraft and KatanaZero. Can't beat those two.

I've been getting back into World of Warcraft the past few weeks. Really enjoying playing solo and just levelling alts instead of the almost second job level of commitment that I used to have when raiding years ago.

Been eyeing that Battlebits Remastered on steam as well - might pick that up as it looks chaotic fun.

The forever constant is Rocket League, but I've started Witcher 3 back up on my switch.

Tried to pick up a discounted copy off steam for cloud save .. but learned that feature is broken. So I refunded and picked it up on GOG.. and learned it's also broken.

Really brought me back to when I played PC games more and how absolutely infuriating it is when something doesn't work and you try to troubleshoot it. Nowadays there are countless sites where people respond with, "it works on my machine" as a solution. What an age we live in.

TFT, enjoying new set 9

Friend put me onto Control. Picked it up at discount and enjoying it so far.

currently working my way through all of kingdom hearts. as a teen i played everything up until dream drop distance and i was a massive fan but that waned over time. i got both 1.5 + 2.5 and 2.8 and i'm working through everything again as a lore refresher before i tackle 3.

Currently going through Prey which I'm really enjoying so far. Also making incremental progress on Elden Ring, currently stuck on Rykard.

I always come back to two games. Divinity: Original Sin 2 and Minecraft. But I really miss Minecraft from the alpha and beta days when it was simple. D:OS2 is possibly the best story driven, turn based RGP I've ever played - any recs for something similar? Over winter I tried to get into Hogwarts Legacy but I couldn't find the motivation to progress despite growing up with and loving HP. On mobile I play Sky: Children of the Light pretty much daily and have done for almost 3 years now. Looking forward to PC release for that which was announced not long ago.

I'm mostly switching between the System Shock Remake (one of my Kickstarters finally coming through...) and Aliens: Dark Descent -- which is far better than I was expecting. The only real sticking points so far is the squad acting as 'one' (it's a pro and a con), and the sheer RNG of alien movements -- hit the RNG just right and you'll go from a Hunt event, straight into a difficulty increase, straight into a Boss encounter...!

BattleBit has become my current obsession. Feels just like playing Battlefield 3 back in the day once you get past the Roblox-esque graphics. Honestly when I'm not playing it I'm thinking about playing it.

Aoe4. New patch dropped last week for new season. Gonna learn different civs.

Finished up TOTK a while ago, playing Xenoblade Chronicles X currently. I plan to get the new Katamari Remake soon too.

I do mostly FFXIV and emulation, but just got into RuneScape 3 and it's super fun. I was quite surprised, as it's not a very actiony game, but the questing and style just grows on you.

Enjoying Diablo 4 at the moment. If I'm not on that, I play a fair bit of Hell Let Loose.

Destiny 2 as a F2P user has been surprisingly fun. Yeah, there are paywalls, but there's at-least 60-80 hours that you can play for free with how well the game is designed. Great group PvP and PvE challenges, public group PvE challenges, and over-all gorgeous modeling. Plus the combat mechanics aren't insanely hard to learn, but they can still provide a great challenge. I had my doubts because I've heard it was a microtransaction nightmare, but turns out it's not a pay-to-play scheme like Genshin. I might even buy the expansions and unlock the rest of the game.

Currently about 25-30 hours into Days Gone (ps5) and thoroughly enjoying it.

The moral of that story is a) don't listen to ign b) metacritic user score is more relevant than critic score

Then need to finish Jedi survivor which I quit half way because of the bounty (and various other) bug(s)

Tears of the kingdom has finally broke my ftl: faster than light addiction

Got 7 Days to Die currently on the mind with it's alpha 21 release. Also recently returned to swtor and am enjoying a bit more of a casual pace.

Playing a bunch of battlebit at the moment. Excellent game well worth a look if you have a chance

Divinity 2 Original Sin, after that either going to do a modded playthrough of Total War: Three Kingdoms or play the Batman: Arkham series.

Forza Horizon 5's going to have a Barbie crossover soon so that's definitely on my to-play list

A small indie gem called Impaler. If you just want to blast things into bloody bits, this is a great time.

mainly elite dangerous and banished atm

@sideone, this is which I most play since several Years. 100% free, Windows, Linux, Mac, one of the best free games ever.

In the short moments I've had for gaming, I've finished the main story in Saints Row (the rebooted one). It was OK, reasonably fun and definitely worth the £12 or so I paid on ebay. Not sure what's next, maybe finish my second run of Horizon Zero Dawn.

Slowly going through Stray and Disco Elysium. I have like 30 minutes a week to spend on gaming 😥

Just completed the latest No Man's Sky expedition... getting close to finishing the main story in the new Zelda. I pretty much tend to play one game at a time until I'm done with it before moving onto the next.

Very much trying to tamp down my hype & excitement for Starfield and Fable... wait, Duke Nukem? Is there a new Duke Nukem?! I used to make maps for DN3D that we'd play over modem (BEEEP BROOOOOP BRRRRRRRR), my friends quickly learned that the high-powered weapon seductively placed on a pedastal with flashing lights was always a squishing trap.

Playing Diablo IV! Just finished the somewhat lackluster campaign which is definitely a prologue to something much more grand coming in the future expansions. But nobody really plays it for the story, right...

Cassette Beasts (really good if you love Pokemon but are bored of Pokemon and want something a bit different)
Chivalry 2 (mindless stabby fun, but I've gotten to a point where I'm good enough to know I suck but too old and busy to get better)
Runescape (never played as a kid, my friends got me into it earlier this year then they stopped playing lol)
I wish Diablo and Zelda were my answers.

Started Tears of the Kingdom a day before release. Not played anything else since. And the size of this game, it might be a while before I play anything different.

Oceanhorn, while I'm thinking about what my next "real" game will be. Sometimes I like to chill with some low stress little games in between, y'know?
