I primarily mean video games. However, if you’ve played some kind of interesting table top or card game I’d like to hear about that too! I’ve been replaying the Witcher 3 lately.

    I played Blue Prince for a long time, currently taking a break because it’s incredibly mentally taxing.
    Been playing the Iron Oath a lot lately. It’s a tactics game with permadeath and feels D&D inspired, it has a few issues but nothing game-breaking.
    Board games, I’m always playing Betrayal at House on the Hill, but we also tried Call to Adventure recently and that was pretty fun, would like to give it another go and get the hang of it.

    I’ve been hooked on Factorio lately. I think it’s helping with some of the decision paralysis shit I’ve been dealing with at work.

    Started playing State of Decay 2 again. Best zombie survival game ever. Hope the third one isn’t a flop and releases in my lifetime.

    I actually really like Undecember, despite the inventory management, costume shop, and gacha mechanic for legendaries. The storyline gets good after the first arc, and the skill system is so flexible, you can make almost any type of build you can think of.

    I got cyberpunk 2077 for the summer sale and I’m absolutely loving it. Put nearly 200 hours into the game in the first month or so. Only just now getting into mods. Despite its poor launch the dlc definitely makes up for it.

    I played Heartworm. It’s an indie survival horror game that came out recently. It’s a very unique game in the genre. I highly recommend it.

    I’ve gone back to playing Ghost of Tsushima, for the first time, a bunch recently. Took a long break from it after Act I, but just because I didn’t want to marathon it all at once. It’s probably my favorite melee combat game that isn’t a full-fledged RPG, and the story is fantastic. I’m really glad that it’s more grounded in realism, for the most part, rather than relying on fantasy gimmicks and magic. Plus playing it with Japanese audio is an absolute treat.

    I think I’m about halfway through Stray and love every minute.

    I’ve also been playing Pokemon Emerald: Seaglass as a really gorgeous re-imagining of Emerald.

      I really enjoyed Stray the world is gorgeous (in it’s dingy apocalyptic way) and I enjoyed how they used the mechanics with a couple change ups to keep it interesting but not out-staying there welcome.

      The ending I thought was really good.

    For video games, I just beat silksong, which was super fun and pretty brutal. The art and music is phenomenal though, it’s a great game. Working on Hades 2 right now, which is also fantastic and I’d recommend.

    For board games I’ve been getting my group into the Heroes 3 board game. It’s the biggest box I’ve ever seen for a game lol. It does a great job of feeling like the computer game while meeting the constraints of a board game, plus there’s lots of bits to fiddle with. Downside is its huge, so you need a big table or a group comfortable playing on the floor.
