The kind of game you daydream about while at school or work because you can’t wait to come home and play some more.
Crusader Kings 3
Right now, Death Stranding.
Edit: I went back to look at the reception of this game from at its release. It did great at the VGAs, but general consensus on Reddit and other forums negative. I also remember how much The Giant Beastcast shat on that game (I stopped listening to them pretty soon after that too, but for unrelated reason).
Before Helldivers? Lethal company.
Are you me?
Endless Space 2, ever since the Re-Awakening update. And it’s still the best 4x space game out there.
GTA 4 modded the new dxvk update made it run amazingly on PC
Currently hooked on Humanity, which I just got. I played until 6am the other day…
Help me.
Rain World.
I have some spoilers (including the gist of the ending) but am playing as blind as I can manage. It’s nice to just play and discover without having a guide by my side.
Cyberpunk 2077 when it was released. And then panam made me cry ( ._.) And that scene inside the robo is burnt into my brain xD
I kinda didnt even realise alot of the bugs, cause I really enjoyed the story. I remember seeing the trees through the walls but the immersion/ my imagination was strong enough to mask them .D
I’ve played it more recently, encountered 1 noticeable bug on my entire play though. They’ve turned it into an impressive, well polished game now.
Palworld! Couldn’t stop playing it with my friends, it was such a blast! I say “was”, because we quickly all got to level 50 and now we’re waiting for a big update that’ll make the game fresh again!
Signalis. Which is weird, its over in 10 hours but I got hooked on the fandom crack until recently.
Cross Code for me. Ended up putting like 60 hours into it in about 3 weeks while in university and working part time. I could not put it down.
I’ve had this sealed on my shelf for nearly a year until about 4 days ago. Not bad. Some games take me a bit to get into. Just got the fire ability. Seems interesting so far but the combat at this point is monotonous to me. There’s also a ton of garbage quests. “collect me carrots. Run me an errand”. No thanks.
I think the game has a great story, but both the gameplay and story takes a while to get going.
I’m still playing Starfield. I’m 120% the targeted audience. It helped me go through depression.
I’m a 45 years old dude, and I started creating a comic with my character in Starfield, by taking screenshots and adding speech bubbles with Figma. I didn’t know I had it in me.
As far as I’m concerned, Starfield is self-care.
That’s deep rock Galactic and star trek for me, whenever I’m bringing those 2 then times are tough.
I really enjoyed that game, despite its faults, and despite the loud folks yelling about how it was the worst game ever. I put around 150 hours into it.
Awesome. I’m way past 500. Not sure, I don’t check much.
Elden Ring (again) I go back and forth between many games
Just waiting for shadow of the erdtree to reignite this addiction…
Good time to roll a new character so it’s beefy when DLC drops.
I did start another ahah. I actually discovered I didn’t beat any of the DLC for dark souls 3 because I was in the same boat as now and I had the seasons pass. So I went and finished all that.
Descent, over 20 years ago
20 years? What, in the 80s?
lol, 20 years ago was 2004; but yes, I’m old.
I know I was super late to the party, but I’m genuinely surprised that nobody has said Skyrim, yet.
Before that, Subnautica (both of them).
But I’ve probably spent as much time in Skyrim as both Subnautica games combined.
Well, Skyrim is already 12 years old. Most people played it obsessively a long time ago. Of my 1000s of hours spent in Tamriel, only 100 or so were in the past year.
