I'm going to do these periodically.

Title kinda says all.

I'll have my own reply later.

Special weekly question:

What do you like most about 2023's repertoire of video games?

      Playing Grim Dawn at the moment, it scratches my brain in such a way that I can binge it for hours on end lol

      Also gonna start talos principal 2 soon, and maybe bg3.

        Yeah, Grim Dawn apparently scratches that itch well for a lot of people.

        Oh, Celeste is good.

        And yeah, the Retroid Pocket 3+ is a good retro handheld.

      I don't play video games because I find them addictive and I feel bad when I've spent all night staring at a screen moving meeple instead of doing things that make me feel good about myself. (No shade on games, they seem pretty cool that's the problem for me lol).

      Nice to know we're friends though.

        I don't believe one should be "productive" all the time, but that's just me.

        And yes, I understand that they can be addictive, especially depending on the game.

          Yeah I mean I agree. Video games are just a way of spending my unproductive time that makes me feel very empty, and that's a bad pairing with something I find addictive. I'm not trying to suggest you or anyone else shouldn't play them.

      Just finished Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart.

      DragonballZ Kakarot. Before that was Cyberpunk 2077 and FF7R, Crisis Core Remaster.

      Currently playing Batman Arkham Asylum: GOTY and will be working my way up through its sequels Arkham City and Arkham Knight - been on the back burner a long time. Also Atomic Heart, Outter Worlds and just started Okamai HD.

      Playing Hades and Vampire Survivors when I don't have a lot of time - casual.

      Looking forward to getting Star Ocean: The Second Story Remake when it goes on sale, and FF7R: Rebirth. Going to have to jump into Baulders Gate 3 sometimes, Borderlands 3 and Tiny Tina's Wonderland. Replay Bayonetta (she's just funny and sassy dommy AF). Want to get Path of Exile 2 when it comes out and Hades 2.

        Damn, a reminder that I should play Path of Exile 2 and Okami HD as well, at least eventually.
