I picked up Total War: WARHAMMER III and Pennon and Battle, both strategy games. I’m thinking of getting Baldur’s Gate 3 as well. This should keep me busy for a while. My holiday plan is to stay home and game!

Wanted to play It Takes Two with my gf when it launched. Hoping to convince her now that she’s my wife
Oh It Takes Two is a good one! Played it with my partner a while back and had a great time!
It Takes Two is an amazing couples game that my girlfriend refuses to play again because of one scene lol
That damned elephant?
Aye, that’s the one.
Played it with my wife. We both agreed the gameplay is great but the story is awful. We disagreed that they should stay together in the end.
Tactical Breach Wizards. It’s a nice little puzzle game with some dry humor that ive actually chuckled too a few times. Its a lot of fun so far.
Covid.
Oooh so retro
I’m in great pain lol
The talos principle 1 & 2. Playing through 1 now, and it’s excellent. Some of the puzzles are complex, but most can be solved in 5-10 minutes and give a nice “ah-ha!” moment. It reminds me of portal 2, but with a heavier and more ambiguous story about the nature of life and consciousness. Highly recommended.
Also been playing some Dome keeper and Peglin. Both also excellent in their own ways.
Both Talos Principle games are a treat. Really love the philosophy and story mixed in between the puzzles. Enjoy!
Divinity 2: Original Sin, because I’m 30hrs into BG3 and it’s really good
The beginning of D:OS2 felt like a cheat code to get more BG3 after I’d already finished BG3, but as time went on, I found that everything from RPG systems to pacing of combat/non-combat is leagues better in BG3, to say nothing of the production value that’s obviously better in BG3. Still a good game, but the improvement between each of their RPGs is immense.
I have to say I very much prefer the combat system in OS as it feels much more natural and less restrictive than the DnD combat in BG3. Of course the latter has far more content, but I’m looking forward to Larian’s next game where they can finally go wild again and do things they want exactly the way they want.
I felt far more restricted by D:OS2’s armor system. Freeform classes sound great on paper, but it also means you kind of naturally end up at a spot where you’ve got everything instead of making meaningfully difficult choices in classes or multiclassing. Learning abilities from books leads to a lot of money bottlenecks and leveling decisions that I didn’t care for. The way that the combat usually doesn’t have any chance to hit, but then does very occasionally, makes missing an attack feel like bullshit rather than a calculated risk. I’m also looking forward to whatever they do next, maybe even a sci-fi interstellar RPG, but I hope they don’t go back to the Divinity well too often for RPG mechanics.
D:OS2 is one of the very few games that made me cry with the emotions I had for my characters. I hope you like it, great game.
I envy you. I’ve got 1400 hours in Bg3. I love the game but i wish i could forget it to play it fresh again.
Stardew Valley and Cyberpunk. Never played either one, but I’m starting with Stardew
I wish I could play Cyberpunk for the first time again. Enjoy! Did you see the anime Cyberpunk: Edgerunners? Would highly recommend.
Really really wanted to like Stardew, but oh my god, so much walking around! Could’ve really done with an ebike
You can get a horse and there are lot’s of QoL mods for the game
Everspace for 99 Cents. :)
An excellent choice, and the sequel is also great, although the gameplay is very different.
Game was hard for me to get into but once it clicked, it was awesome
Same, not tried it yet
It’s great.
Nothing. It was a difficult choice, but it was a necessary sacrifice in favor of the games, collecting dust in my library :*-)
A bunch of EA games they‘re practically giving away considering the 90% discounts (Mass Effect etc.), and a bunch of indie puzzle games (Cats Organized Neatly etc.) as well as some steeply discounted Devolver Digital games (Hotline Miami 2 etc.).
I think I paid the price of one full price game (70 bucks nowadays) for like 20+ titles, but also yet again lost the battle of the ratio of games purchased vs games played this year… Damn you, Gaben!
Now I‘ll just wait for Monster Hunter Wilds which is easily my most anticipated game at the moment and probably the first triple-A game I‘ll be getting on launch since Elden Ring.

Same here.
FYI, Monster Hunter Wilds is available on Green Man Gaming and Fanatical for -18%, taking its price down to a normal triple A price of 57€.
Actually nothing this time. I got back into Elite Dangerous hard and play it pretty much every minute of my gaming time currently.
Nothing. Everything its too expensive in argentina now
Grabbed the mass effect series for under a fiver. Played for a few hours and realized I was not enjoying it at all.
- Firewatch
- Alice Madness Returns
- Alan Awake
- It Takes Two
- Kingdom Two Crowns
Finally got Tunic. I’m pretty happy 6 h in!
I bought Reka and Baldurs Gate 3, haven’t played BG3 yet but Reka is fun! It’s buggy so I’m holding off on playing more until it’s a bit more stable but I’m excited. Been playing a bit of my backlog though before jumping into BG3.
