It Takes Two - super cute and inventive two player co-op. Perfect to play with your spouse and not too hard for non-gamers.<p>Deep Rock Galactic - great co-op PvE with a lot of surprising depth and cool procedural generation of levels, some really great challenges<p>Hunt: Showdown - intense PvPvE with fantastic gunplay in a well-drawn, period-accurate Lovecraftian setting<p>Phasmophobia - ghost hunting co-op with enough randomness and variety to stay spooky over hundreds of hours<p>I like co-op. What can I say?
A lot of VR lately. I got a Quest 2 not too long ago. Haven't really messed with VR since the Virtual Boy, so it's been quite the education how far VR has come since.<p>A lot of what I keep going back to for it is Beat Saber, Ragnarock (Viking drumming game, reminds me of when I played Timpani in band back in high school, I even had four drums like the game does), Puzzling Places (putting together a 3D puzzle, works super well in VR), Lone Echo, Half Life Alyx.<p>It quickly made me change my plans for a video game I'm working on in my spare time, and now I'm planning to add VR support to it. Always kind of wanted to anyway, but it was more of a "well, maybe someday". It's a higher priority now.
Yakuza 0. I've been playing it as "virtual tourism", it's a faithful recreation of one small part of 1980s Tokyo. The environment is really lovingly crafted, and the main story is B Movie schlock in the best way.
I used to game casually on PC years before.<p>I don't anymore. I have other things to do that I give more priority to.<p>I played <i>GTA 5</i> some months ago. The whole story mode.<p>I have purchased <i>Factorio</i> some weeks ago and I love it. I have played it for some hours. Would love to play more.<p><i>Read Dead Redemption 2</i> looked very interesting when I saw a friend play it.<p>I would like to buy and play it someday.<p><i>Into The Breach</i> is another game that I have played recently.
I usually play 2 games at a time: one with story and more or less complex, which requires my attention, and another (usually sports games) to listen to podcast in the background.
Right now my first one would be completing the 100% of the last Kirby, and the second one would be Gran Turismo 7 (what a great game).
Fifa 22 occasionally and nothing else. Anybody interested in learning can get in touch. Disclaimer: i can only teach actual gameplay, not tactics, game glitches etc.
Currently playing The Mana World, a 2D MMORPG that has GBA graphics

Zandronum online, mainly CDI, Shotgun Frenzy.<p>Recently (after another HN thread) picked up Tiberian Dawn in OpenRA. Despite 20 years since the last time I played I still get outraged when my MRLS get ravaged while tanks (even on attack anything setting) doesn't care a bit.
Stanley Parable Ultra Deluxe<p>Grim Fandango<p>The LOUD mod<p>Halo Spartan Assault + Strike<p>I keep a blog about the stuff I've been playing: <a href="https://theandrewbailey.com/index/Gaming/" rel="nofollow">https://theandrewbailey.com/index/Gaming/</a>
Europa Universalis: It never ends. One thing I really like about this game is the ability to build complex diplomatic relations.<p>Cyberpunk 2077: Played. Really a great game despite the hiccups.
Dota2 - There simple is no better MOBA.<p>Path of Exile - Sporadic league player before I burn out to due to lack of commitment/skill.<p><i>edit</i> formatting.
