    Finished first Quake recently (EXCELLENT game, still very much playable even after nearly 3 decades, definitely 9/10), and currently playing Perdition’s Gate, it is kinda unofficial Doom 2 expansion released in 1996, and it had chance to be included in Final Doom (which are two additional official episodes for Doom 2), but ultimately it was decided against it.

    Perdition’s Gate is kinda interesting as it has some unique elements and I genuinely enjoyed it even though there are probably much better Mega WADs nowadays, later maps are too short though, and it looks like they have made them only to accomplish 32 maps total like in the original game. Secret maps are also… odd… definitely not bad, but… just odd (and disappointing to some extent I guess), although I am not going to spoil them for you. Also the locations for secrets are also weird.

    Interesting and odd is I think the best description for this Expansion/WAD.

    Trying to beat the high alchemist in Noita, but I haven’t been able to find a personal fireball thrower spell to stick on the high alchemist. I mostly end up dying anyways through normal progression

      Funnily enough playing BotW on CEMU was what got me to get a switch, it was just so good I wanted to play it without any caveats or messing with settings or working around the gyro controls and the allure of playing it portably anywhere was high.

        The only problem I’m having now is the gyro controls . Only found one temple so far that needs it but I’ll probably be able to get that works with one of my controllers .

    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.

    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

    I just picked up Shadow of the Tomb Raider after not having touched a Tomb Raider game since PS1, and still never finishing them. It’s pretty good! It feels a lot like God of War but with Lara Croft. Makes me want to pick up the previous iterations to get more of the story, since I’m a bit lost, but it’s easy to fill in some of the blanks.

    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.

    Trying to play wow classic hardcore with my group of friends. So far I’m the only one who hasn’t died and it’s frustrating trying to group up now since we’re all wildly different levels.

    I randomly got hit with the urge to play the ps2 mascot games. I’ve started picking them up for cheap to rip and load onto my Steam Deck. I’ve finished the first Ratchet and Clank and Sly Cooper games. Now started on Going Commando, with plans for the rest of both of their ps2 games and the Jak and Daxter trilogy. I’ve played all of Ratchet and Jak before but Sly is new to me, minus maybe half of his 4th game.

    And still chugging through BG3 with my wife. It’s been hard getting time for the longer play sessions it requires lately but we’ll get through it eventually.
