For me:

  • Wo Long, again, on the PS5 this time and with the Season Pass. I'm a freak so I'll get it done before the first DLC drops this week
  • FFXVI. I have many, many thoughts about this game right now but I'll hold my tongue until I finish it. i probably will.
  • PSO2:NG. I'm done with grad school so I'm delving into those big, forever games again. FFXIV is boring to me now so I thought I'd give NG a try. I played PSO2 a lil bit now and again. if you play this lemme know! I'm on Ship 3, but I literally just started, so
  • Battle Bit Remastered. The only FPS I've ever been good at is Apex. This is not that, but it's fun and low stakes so I'll take it.
  • Ender Lilies and Afterimage. I've been on a Metroidvania kick lately
  • Street Fighter 6. still searching for my main (and my skill in this game)

Into the Breach is GOATed with the SAUCE baby god I love everything by that team. Can't wait to see what they make next. I've put hundreds of hours into it across platforms despite being not the best at it haha

  • metroid
  • returnal
  • beyond good and evil
  • the FFXIII trilogy (yes they're good and I'll fight anyone that says otherwise)
  • Bayonetta
  • A lot of the Resident Evils
  • Celeste, bonus points for being very gay as well
  • Half-Life: Alyx
  • Tales of Berseria (if you like anime stuff. the protag's outfit is trash but she's probably the best Tales MC IMO)
  • Telltale's Walking Dead
  • Assassin's Creed Odyssey. The female protag is canon as far as I'm concerned
  • Night in the Woods
  • Control
  • Nier Automata
  • Kena: Bridge of Spirits
  • Signalis

i love this game, glad it was really successful too, I wanna see more from those devs. felt like a 2D Okami spin-off

i'm curious to see how successful this is. i feel like I already own every popular / high-quality VR game cause...you know, there aren't many. For example I already have Pistol Whip and the Golf game. But I guess if you're new to VR or the Quest this might be a good deal.

VR tends to have a harsh drop-off tbh, I think the stat is like most people stop using their quest after the first 4 months? this might help bring people back now and then. as far as going back to old games....for me I'll boot up beat saber and until you fall, but as like, chill cardio when I don't wanna go too hard that day lol

This is a very valid point that I don't care about Yoshi "Black People can't exist in FFXVI"-P bringing up lol

Top X Lists are fine but I hope people don't take them too seriously given their subjectivity. Like my number 2 is gravity rush 2, variety is the spice of life

The chess club bit always make me laugh. Woulda been solid on The Office if the whole game-making thing didn't work out

Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 lets you play challenge modes in multi-player wirh no garbage and is on the Switch. Probs your best bet!

i want shorter games with worse graphics made by people who are paid more to work less and i'm not kidding

I haven't played it myself yet but I watched the cutscenes and they were the most over-the-top, edgy GOT story beats I've seen in a while. Just did not vibe with the tone at all. The idea that the game is meant to be "adult" when games like Yakuza 7 tell extremely adult stories without characters yelling "cock." Big "this ain't your DADDY'S final fantasy" vibes that just made me cringe.

I'm gonna get it because I treat games like artifacts of anthropological study but Im not looking forward to the narrative so far - couple that with CBU3s terrible track record with women and the fact that the only dark skinned characters are a clear middle eastern, turban wearing parallel lol.

You'd be surprised, that's not really how the game goes at all. The characters are actually super compelling and endearing, and the gameplay is meaty as hell. It's one of my top 15 at least and I can't wait for their next game.

So far I still love it! It's been with me on my trip in Japan and it's been doing a fantastic job of keeping me occupied during the downtime. Fantastic battery life and the hinge is still going strong, which was my biggest worry. But yeah I can recommend it wholeheartedly!
