    Ravenswatch is a really fun roguelike that’s great solo, but the multiplayer is also really fun. Every character gives you a totally unique gameplay so it doesn’t get boring with time. I’m really excited to see what the game will look like when it’s released, but for an early access game it’s great and doesn’t suffer from lack of content because it’s challenging and has a nice variety of enemies so if somebody is on the fence about it, I recommend trying it out.

    Been playing a lot of Valheim and Trailmakers this week to get myself in the mindset for the upcoming Enshrouded EA release

    Last night I finished the last of us 1 remastered. It was my first time playing the game and enjoyed very much. Ellie is such a badass.

    Will return to it soon and see if I can get platinum for it.

    Grinding levels in Fortnite and annoy people with my Peter Griffin and “bird is the word” song and dance.

    Also playing some pinball FX and dead cells.

    Re4 remake. Pretty good so far, but Ashley is such a pain.

      They made her significantly less of a pain in the remake. And they kept they that you can hide her or she just stays out of the way in a lot of fights. And doesnt have a health bar. Big improvements comparatively in my opinion.

    Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising. Been in an SF6 slump so changing it up has been refreshing. Not super into the anime style of it but the gameplay is incredibly fun. Its also a really well put together game with a good single player and a Fall Guys rip off thats also really fun.

    Also old school runescape because the grind never ends.

    Been playing Sons of the Forest. Visually stunning, this is good looking game. I like how it can be played as a shooter or an adventure or base building or combination of all three. The map is huge, backstory mysterious and the atmosphere is incredibly immersive, particularly in the caves which are creepy AF.

      How does it compare with the original Forest? I liked that game, but after you explore all of the caves there’s not much to do. Building is fun, but I think some stronger enemies were needed.

        It’s an improvement. The enemies continually increase in strength and number. More weapons and the map is bigger. I’m avoiding using the cheat maps for the most part and it feels like it would take a very long time to complete. I’m playing it on normal difficulty.

        The game is still in beta for another month and building options are somewhat limited, which I assume will be expanded. If you liked the original, this one makes a lot of sense.

    I’ve played a few hours now of BG3 and i have a hard time getting into it.

    I never played a D&D game in my life but want to give this a try.

    I’m just so clueless what to do with classes, jobs, etcetera.

    But the game looks great and story is interesting so I’m eager to see how it plays out.

      Don’t worry about trying to pick the “best” or “strongest” thing, just do the thing that sounds fun. There are different ways of handling things so you don’t have to worry about doing it the “right” way, just pick something that works for you and go with it. If you really want you can worry about maximizing your build or playing a different class in a second run.

      Also tried getting into it. I put ~10 hours in but I just played less and less every day until I stopped entirely. One thing I never really got used to was the camera controls for example.

      But I also played alone, so I think this game is more fun with friends.

    I’m getting back into battletech recently. The story is decent, and I just love the mechanics. I just got lucky with an AC20+++ (giant canon, the +++ means improved stats). I put it on a medium mech (wolverine), which meant no room for anything else except almmo and armor. But it doesn’t matter, it goes BOOM. Very boom.

    Finished up Greedfall on Sunday, just in time to get my hands on Sovereign Syndicate (launched on Monday). So far, so good.

    I’m a little late to the game, but I started playing Breath of the Wild on Ryujinx (I learned in December that my secondhand Switch is jailbreakable). And now I see why so many people loved it.
    It also gave me strong Elden Ring vibes when gliding through the world, so I see where ER got its inspiration.

    It has me excite to play TotK right after.

    I’m addicted to Grand Turismo 7 right now. I don’t play anything else which is rare with me. I even got to the point where I bought PS VR2 just for this game.

      I have yet to pick up a PS5, but when I do, GT7 is the first game I’m picking up! What are you enjoying the most from it?

        It’s the sense of speed and degree of realism is higher than in Forza games. GT Sophy AI is also amazing. It adds personalities to the AI cars so they no longer follow predefined lines but they block, attack, crash or spin from too much throttle.
