Can't wait to find someone who will play It Takes Two with me. As the name suggests, it takes two people to play and I am but one person. :(

Mass Effect Legendary Edition.
Never played ME, before, but I hear it's pretty good.
Mass Effect is really one of a kind. The first game is the most epic Space Opera that I have ever played/watched. It puts Star Wars and others to shame. They retconned shit in the 2nd and 3rd games so in my opinion the first one remains the best story-wise. But honestly, all three are great.
I am very sad that no other studios tried to do anything even remotely comparable. The closest I can think of is Starfield, which wasn't very good.
Me too. I have the "old" versions "Mass Effect 2007", "Mass Effect 2 2010" and "Mass Effect 2 (2010) Edition" (for some reasons there are two versions of old ME2) on Steam and was about to buy Legendary Edition and finally getting started to play. But I'm not happy with the additional requirements of it, as it requires Origin client and an EA account to play this single player game. This is unacceptable to me. Old versions do not require this.
So after my research and being confused of multiple versions and if the Legendary Edition is worth it, lost interest. But ME2 is still on my list to play soon.
You can mod the first three to get it close to par with the Legendary edition. The improvements they made in LE on all 3 make it worth playing, but if a user account is your limit I guess not. There are a ton of mods for LE now as well.

I'm jealous of a 1st play through. It's incredible.
That's what I keep hearing! Looking forward to a good space opera
My friend loves Mass Effect, he liked the LE quite a bit.
Elden Ring.
I've bought it on sale knowing my PC can't run it. As soon as I finally update it that's the first game I'm gonna install.

Baba is you. I know the game was made by people much smarter than I am, I know I'm going to get stuck chasing a bad idea for 30+ minutes..
I have just not been feeling puzzley lately.
i have spiritfarer but my mom is on the way out and I'm waiting to play it until i need it
If you're looking for more like it, Gris is on sale for 1.50 right now on steam. Beautiful game with similar themes.
Main backlog I actually want to play currently:
- Greedfall 2
- Cassette Beasts
- Shell Runner
- Selaco
- The entire Atelier series (Ryza 1+2, Sophie 1+2)
- Isles of Adalar (note that this game's development is on-hold currently)
- Construction Simulator 3
- Dishonored 1+2
- Monomyth
If you can't tell from Isles of Adalar and Monomyth, any game that looks like a Morrowind knock-off is a high priority for me. :P
In reality though, I'll just play more Avorion and Starsector.
Do yourself a favor and stop putting off Cassette Beasts. Every time I play it, I am gobstruck that an indie team made this and sells it for a fraction of the price of whatever mediocrity Pokemon is pumping out.
I could sing it's praises all day, but I'd rather just politely nudge you to push it up the list.
My backlog and my library are huge so I'll choose a few (in no particular order):
- Baldur's Gate 3
- Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood
- Inscryption
- Hades
- Hollow Knight
- Outer Wilds DLC (I've been putting it off because it's supposedly scary)
- Stray
- Little Kitty, Big City
- Monster Train
- Moonstone Island
It's worth noting that the "scary" parts of the Outer Wilds DLC (are very mild, and) are not mandatory. That is to say, for the most part, if you find solving a part of the game too stressful, try approaching it differently.
I loved the base game and DLC. Should be the top of any backlog IMO.

Animal well and wingspan. I think there are others too, despite trying hard to keep stuff in my wishlist instead of backlog.
Mostly my backlog comes from starting a game and then getting distracted by something else.
wingspan
i love both the physical and digital versions of this game. 🕊️
Hades Baldur's Gate 3 Witcher 3 Dark Souls 3 Elden Ring Path of Exile II Zelda Breath of the Wild (Switch II?) Z BotW II
Return of the obra dinn
I feel like it's a game to be played in one long go, so I'm waiting for the right time.
Pacific Drive for me! Played the demo and it seemed a pretty chill scavenging and driving game. I'll get to it once I'm done with The Outer Worlds and its DLC.
Remnant 2. Gotta finish Cyberpunk 2077 (again) first though. The damn DLC adding extra achievements has thrown everything off!
Looked through all of my games on Steam Deck and forgot I had a few. None of them I can't say I'm really interested in right now, but I'm somewhat excited about Psychonauts because I've heard good things about it.
Frog Detective 3! I absolutely loved Frog Detective 1&2 but for some reason haven't gotten around to 3.
"what remains of edith finch" and "gone home." waiting for the right rainy day to play them.

Sekiro. Friends tell me it's one of the harder From Software games so I'm looking forward to die many times.
Horizon Zero Dawn, Planet of Lana
When you get around to HZD, the DLC Frozen Wilds and Horizon: Forbidden West are highly recommended. I'm halfway through the second and it's so amazing.

So many... My backlog is big but I've been trying to work my way through it. Currently on my mind though is octopath 2, Grime, Ghost trick, Talos principal, and the trails games
There's way too much stuff in there, but as of right now I think it's Mechanicus, and the Serious Sam HD remasters, thanks to a recommendation in another thread just now. I also have a couple interesting demos I downloaded. The problem is, I haven't played anything from my Steam at all in the past month or so. Everything I've been gaming has been outside of it.
Also hilariously, these Serious Sam games were the literal first games I bought when I created my Steam account and I never played through them. They were an impulse buy from a friend's recommendation back in the day but I wasn't as into boomer shooters as I am now.
A good chunk of the 3DS library. So many titles I haven't gotten around to yet.
I need to eventually finish monster hunter iceborne and then play Rise! I have a feeling I'll probably end up just jumping to wilds though. It'll probably be hard to go back to older titles when that game releases.
The Yakuza series! I have only finished zero, 1 & 2. They release them faster than I'm getting to them lol.
Monster hunter mentioned!
I really want to tell you to give rise a try because the sunbreak expansion is absolute peak monster hunter, but I agree that february 28th release date is creeping up way too fast...
I want to try it so badly! I loved that they leaned into the Japanese themes and imagery, too. I think I'll definitely have to make some time to play it.
I want to also play persona 3 for the first time, but it's like 100 hours or so, and I look at that number and think, "That'll take me 6 months to finish." Haha maybe I'll hermit myself inside the house this winter and smash it out in half that time
Witcher 3.
Half Life Alyx
Metal Gear Solid V >:)
I bought that game day one, actually played like the first 4 missions, thought to myself "Wow, this is going to be incredible! I should wait until I have a loong weekend, hehe~", and then never touched it again.
I am glacially making my way through the first 4 now, though.
Planescape: Torment
Waiting to get a better eyeglass prescription so I can read the tiny text
I've given up. I'm going to just keep adding to wishlist and nibble on a new one every now and then.
I feel this. In some ways it was a relief discovering that I didn't need to keep up with gaming anymore. I would just play what I want want to play, when. But unfortunately I've missed (or even forgotten) about a lot of games I really wanted to play.
I keep mine in an ever growing wishlist, which I never get back to, but it stops me from feeling like I forgot anything.
