The new wow expansion that I'm enjoying

And LoL Aram

Deadlock

Space Marine 2 with the lads

The Finals here and there.

I got DLC to wrap up on Earth Defense Force 6 at some point.

Have you gotten to the first Scarecrow encounter? If so, what did you think?

I'm right at the end of Horizon Forbidden West but I'm dragging it out by maxing out all my gear, even stuff I don't use. This is really pointless and takes forever as I'm farming the same few enemies over and over again but I'm enjoying it. Great game overall.

I really liked FW but I think the story fell flat compared to the mystery of the first one

Do you have a method on how you explore?

No method really. In between missions, I'll pick a random solar system that I haven't gone to much in past universes and see which planet has multiple POIs.

I think there's a lot of great content in the game but it's really hard to sift through all the procedurally generated copy+paste stuff and it can get frustrating

As much as a love the game, this is the area that needs most improvement.

The Toddfather made a mistake calling it Skyrim in space. It has great exploration instances (stumbling upon the historical figures colony, family cornered by Terrormorph, etc.) but it can't have the same type of exploration just by the nature of not being able to walk continuously. The addition of the REV shows how much potential the game still has, but in a way it highlighted how much more random content is needed. It's fun to hop in and drive around to cool outpost spots but I find myself thinking "okay, now where do I go that isn't another abandoned lab?"

If they answer that question with future updates, which I believe they will, the game will change drastically.

Blasphemous, when I return from vacation.

Pretty tough

Escape from Tarkov has me hooked right now.

I’m doing the PVE and it does seem a lot better. The maps I’ve played have a lot more areas of interest so you don’t just funnel into the same spot as everyone else.

Lost Odyssey

Started playing, Space Marine 2.

It reminds me a lot of the new Doom game, but I really love the aesthetic. Really, really immersive game.

They have a hit on their hands with this game. Hopefully, they continue to support it, as I'm sure it will make them a ton of money.

Vintage Story

I rarely try new games anymore and mostly just rotate through some old favorites, but this one has hit the spot and will definitely be staying in the rotation for a long time. Perfect mix of hardcore survival with cozier aspects like building a base, setting up a farm, forging tools, etc.
