I'm currently playing COD Black ops 2 for the first time and it's pretty good (campaign)

Terraria, by beating the Moon Lord on master mode. Oh, I'll be back, because I love playing it on the Steam Deck, and it's probably my most played game ever apart from TF2. Sadly, that game has aged badly.

Finished w4k Mechanicus a few months back. I tried to get into Baldurs Gate 3 mainly due to all the great reviews, but it didn't really fit with me. Other than that I mostly played Crusader Kings 3, Civ6 and Risk of Rain 2, all three being games you don't really finish.

Super Mario Wonder. I got it at release as I came down with Covid and beat it 100% that weekend. Excellent experience, I just wish it was longer.

Alan Wake 1 and The American Nightmare follow-up. I'm also playing through control again now.

I wanna catch up before going into AW2, but I heard American Nightmare isn't cannon anymore so that may have been a bit of a waste of time.

I got to the last boss in Eldenring and thought wow that's really shit. To be fair it was a great way to end a very over hyped game.

Armored Core 6. Loved it to bits, and made me realise how badly I'd need good mecha games... haven't had one since Battletech.

Heretics Fork, very fun little indie game

It was not Starfield

I played and finished Dredge. It's a fishing horror game, but a surprisingly relaxing experience! Very recommended. You go out with your boat in search of that rare catch. But at night you have to be careful of going crazy. Nice story too.

Sleeping dogs for the second time. Wasn't bothered to collect all of the stuff after doing the story as I've other things to play.

It was good fun for the few days while I played it

I’ve had a VR run recently and finished Red Matter 1, Moss 2 and Red Matter 2.

All excellent games.

Final Fantasy XVI about 3 or 4 weeks ago. It is a very satisfying, increasingly fun, game. I love how the story was told and the progression of the combat system which continues to give you more options without getting more complicated. And it was actually a complete story unlike XV. I'd put it in the mid top half of Final Fantasy games I've played.

I just finished Barman Arkham Knight and I am still processing it, hopefully The Suicide Squad game is at least something similar to this 🥲

Tomb Raider 2013. Love that game. It's a mystery to me how they were able to croft (allow me this pun!) such a good story for that game but not able to repeat it in the later games. Even though their graphics is undoubtedly better, they feel like blant, nonsensical, un-mysterious clones

Super Metroid, amazing level and sound design, perfect progression of difficulty.

I recently played through the Minecraft modpack FTB's Sky Factory 3 with three of my friends. Technically you don't really finish it per se, but we got to a point where we couldn't do much else without excessive levels of grinding and collectively decided we were happy to call it quits.

It was a lot of fun. I've never been a fan of playing other modpacks because they often focus on Minecraft's weakest points (combat is a big one). SF3 on the other hand focuses on what are, IMO, two of Minecraft's biggest strengths, creativity and the grind. Saying we were somewhat addicted would be an understatement, as I alone managed to put 144 hours (6 days!) in the game in around 2 weeks. And that was just me, my poor computer got left on almost every other night so friends could play on the server while I slept.

It was quite different from vanilla Minecraft which helped everyone avoid the burnout that vanilla+ packs usually cause for us. 8/10, probably wouldn't play it again, but the whole group had a solid two weeks of a fun new experience at the nice price of $0.

Smallands

If you like co-op survival style games it's pretty good. Not yet complete though which was a shame when we got to the end of the content.

Last finished was Super Metroid. Tons of fun

I just finished Spider-Man 2. Next, I will finish Spider-Man 2.

Still working on platniuming Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. It was pretty good, except for the missing last episode, and certain missions that just feel like they're in the game for no real reason because they don't do much to drive the plot forward

I love the weird sci-fi/supernatural atmosphere it has. The gameplay is fast and smooth, especially once your character has mobility and speed upgrades. It also doesn't have the problem I had with Elden Ring in that it feels like it took forever to travel from place to place in ER. MSGV has much faster movement

Honestly, that would have to be Oneshot, and it was amazing. All I can really say without spoiling it is that it's somewhat like Undertale in terms of enjoyment, at least for me.

I've finished Ori and the Blind Forest at least 3 times recently. I had my first playthrough (100%), then I went back for the 3 hour speedrun (took a couple attempts to figure out my routing) and got a 2.5 hour run. Then I did a hard mode run with no upgrades. I've yet to do any tries for the no death run because that's probably going to be hell.

As you might have guessed, I think it's a fantastic game. I'm very much looking forward to playing the sequel. I'm going to try a couple no death runs before I move on though.
