I started playing through Skyrim again last year, but didn’t get very far before I lost interest.

I jump back in to left4dead every year or two. The original is probably my favorite shooter. I haven’t found Back4Blood as compelling.

I played Tetris for the first time on my friend’s Gameboy back in the 90’s. I didn’t get addicted at the time and I’m still not, but I do play Tetris 99 on my switch occasionally.

Overall, it’s an amazing game. It can be learned in minutes but takes years to master.

I just picked up Again the Storm a few days ago and have been enjoying that. I like that the settlement building isn’t drawn out like other strategy games, and I don’t really feel bad about it when I lose since I can still earn perks and bonuses that persist throughout the campaign.

GOTY for me is definitely Balder’s Gate 3. Enjoyed it start to finish, and there was enough content that my second playthrough didn’t feel like a rehash of the first.

Sierra entertainment! I was a big fan of the kings quest games, and Sierra online was my first experience with online gaming.

I installed Persona 5 Royale yesterday and Sun about two hours into it. I’m not finding the gameplay or the story interesting, and the amount of time spent in cutscenes is wearing me down. Does it get better? Or is this game just not for me?

I think using mods disables achievements for cyberpunk, so that could bias the numbers. I don’t know how many people are actually using mods though.

I’ve been playing IdleOn for a few months now, but since I’ve been traveling for the last week I’ve been using my phone instead of the computer. The UI could be more finger-friendly, but it’s handy to be able to do some of the daily stuff without too much trouble

There’s one dialogue in the Githyanki creche where your entire party is instantly killed if you choose the “wrong” option. There’s nothing to indicate that the choice will lead to that outcome. I’m not aware of any other dialogues like that, however.

I’m suspicious. WoW added quality to crafting recently and it kind of sucks. This looks like a much more thoughtful approach, but I’m still skeptical that it will actually be fun and not a headache.

The only game I’ve played where encumbrance is interesting is Death Stranding. In everything else it’s just a nuisance.

Death Stranding makes the player think about how to walk over difficult terrain with a large amount of cargo on their back without losing their balance and falling down. Most games allow you to run as far and recklessly as you want without having to worry about falling, so it was interesting to actually have to work at it, at least before you unlock various modes of transportation.

I’m tired of hearing about this game already.

While I do enjoy cheesing fights in BG3, I’ve run into a few which seemed impossible if I didn’t find a way to cheese it, which is kind of a bummer. Shoving the big bad off a cliff should be a strategy, but shouldn’t be the only one.

I enjoyed the ship battles in Assassin’s Creed 4 way more than the platforming and main story. I probably spent twice as much time at sea as I did on land.

I group up with strangers for group content in World of Warcraft, but not very often. I mostly play the game (and others) solo.

Diablo 4 retails for $70. If you spent less than that on PoE, I’d say you’re getting a good deal.

why do you have to pay extra to play online in 2023, anyways?

The one-time cost of a game isn’t going to cover the ongoing costs of hosting the servers hosting the game.

The reason they don’t re-release video games or old movies is because they don’t want you enjoying old things.

You’re assuming nefarious intent. I suspect the reality is that it’s not worth the rights holders’ time or money to invest in re-releasing old titles that very few people would buy.
