Splatoon 3. The only shooters I like are unconventional and hyper-unrealistic. It is certainly that.

Currently putting a lot of time into Noita. It's the first flat screen game that has really grabbed me since I moved over to almost exclusively VR gaming in 2016!
I recently got Noita, really fun little game. I wish I could stop setting half the level on fire, though.
Jagged Alliance 3 and it rocks!
Currently playing: -Rocket League (after a controller Hiatus) -TFT -Dave the Diver
Started but lacking the will to boot up recently: -Diablo 4
Lately I've been liking less involved games as it allows me to watch videos while playing and talking to friends. Diablo 4 has been a bit of a point, as I love the old Diablo games and series but having trouble really getting into the live service version. It's a solid game but just feels different overall. Took me extra time to beat the main story because I just kept putting it down. Dave the diver is worth the money. Great game so far and works in small plays.
I am playing Sifu on my Steam Deck. It's a Kung-fu fighting game with linear story and levels, perfect for mindless half hour or so after work and life. So far the game has been great, with satisfying combat that I'm trying to master.
Exoprimal, very good game. They really should’ve marketed it better
I'm intrigued and don't know much about it. It's the Capcom one with a red hair female and Dinosaurs, right? (No, not Dino Crisis lol)

Until Baldur's Gate 3 comes out I tried some Solasta, but got so bored of the story that I reinstalled Neverwinter Nights and am playing through the first expansion.
Pillars of Eternity 2. I'm not all that far in, but I've been loving it so far. The characters and story feel really well crafted, and there's just a ton of variability in how you can construct your party and progress. Hopefully the quality continues throughout since the first POE felt like it ended abruptly.
Was playing Homebody, I really want to like it but I suck at some of the puzzles and there is this retro game within that really started to piss me off.
Finished up Marvel Midnight Subs recently (few weeks ago). Solid game over all. Would recommend when it's on sale.
Right now, Baldur's Gate 3 (EA). I normally wouldn't pick up an EA game, but I saw it had a set release date like a month ahead and really all I had was a (paid) demo. Figured with Steam, I have 2 hours to find out. I've played it daily 😆. I'll be honestly surprised if this doesn't get GotW. So long as it's a solid launch and the story doesn't drop in quality after Act 1, I really think it could win.
Guilty Gear Strive, I'm surprised at how accessible it is, I'm already climbing ranks after only 6 hours. I remember bouncing off the previous game completely but it looks like they tried to do a soft-reboot to make the series less niche.
I'm not a fighting game fan myself, but I looooooove watching GGS.
It was the first time I was able to follow streamers as they began the game, worked at progressing, and slowly improved.
I remember completely ignoring it because I thought it would be as difficult as Xrd but it's all about the fundamentals + character gimmicks.
Just finished planet of Lana. It was a nice very short game and felt more like an arthouse movie than a game. But sound design and art make this game great
I have just started dark souls III and I'm loving it. I have played ds1 and elden ring and was waiting for a sale for dsIII and just picked it.
I have made a Deprived because I like the extra challenge in these games
I've started playing Elden Ring without really knowing what I was getting myself into..... It's been a experience to say the least. I don't think I've ever struggled with a game so much xD
