Since it came out in the last week of August, I don't think I've touched any game other than Age of Mythology. It's just that perfect balance of being an excellent game in its own right and also absolutely nailing the nostalgia for me.

Donut County. It's cozy and silly and perfect before going to sleep.
--Halls of Torment --Metaphor Refantazio --UFO 50
I'm currently playing Halls of Torment. I've tried a few times before but it has finally clicked. I'm liking it a lot. It is more Diablo than people had led me to believe. I love how different all the character are, and all the achievements that unlock things. I feel I could be playing it for quite a while
On a slightly related note, I just saw Vampire Survivors is getting a Castlevania DLC on the 31st and I'm so excited. I've been hoping for this for so long. 20 new characters, 40 weapons, and their biggest map yet. Sounds like it will have the most content out of any of their other DLCs

Just went back and played the Witcher 3 Blood & Wine expansion. The main questline was really awesome! Many of the side quests feel like busy work, but some are good.
Tis the Halloween season, so I'm now playing Amnesia: The Bunker. It offers a new gameplay flow from their past, more linear games. Past games are more: here's an area with its own monster and a puzzle, solve the puzzle to get through this area. The Bunker (so far) is more: there are several areas with puzzles, but the whole time there is a monster living in the walls that you have to be careful not to alert. Makes it feel more sandboxy and freeform, I'm digging it.
Morrowind. But i beat it w the dlcs few days ago so might replay oblivion before replaying morrowind with mods. I got tamriel rebuilt tho to see a glimpse of what theyve built and the sheer size of the map is jawdropping.
Satisfactory
I'm pretty much always coming back to Rocket League with a couple of friends. We're probably gonna get Space Marine 2 soon to play together too.
Paper Mario Thousand Year Door remake with my wife because she's never seen it. We also started Dead Space. Right now our main obsession is passing the controller back and forth to play Dredge.
I also have a create a pro career I will play off and on in FC 24 and NHL 24 (both were included with PS+, don't @ me lol).
Because of PS+, I'll try a new game every few weeks. Some really keep my attention like Tunic and The Forgotten City did, and some get deleted almost immediately like Car Mechanic Simulator and Ride 5. I'm always trying something new.
Satisfactory currently has me. I'm just now starting into Tier 9 proper.
Vampire Survivor with my partner
I love Vampire Survivor so much. I can't wait for the Castlevania DLC at the end of the month
- Carrier Command 2
- Noita
- Brotato
The Brotato DLC is great. I'm still working on going through and beating the Abyss with all my tates.
I didn't know there was DLC! I hope it is available on Android
Stardew Valley and Brotato(New DLC). Will try Factorio Space Age DLC later.
Warhammer 40K
Itβs really deep, the community is pretty cool, we all 3d print and despise the company that makes the game. Sounds wonderful to me.

Age of Empires IV
GRIP Combat Racing. It's one of those racing games where you have to restart a lot, because recovering from a mistake isn't really an option, but it's still super fun.
Silent Hill 2 Remake. Itβs been absolutely amazing so far. Bloober team knocked this one out of the park, and Iβm really looking forward to Cronos: The New Dawn.
I went through Jusant recently. It came fairly close to scratching the Outer Wilds itch, but it was a little marred by jank at several points. The climbing mechanics were interesting, but you don't get to be creative with them very often. I did enjoy it overall, it just wasn't as good as I feel it could have been and nearly was
Sudoku all the time. Itβs the perfect tool for waiting 7 minutes. I bought the app βEnjoy Sudokuβ many years ago and it is my most played game ever.

Amber Isle!
Cute dinosaur shopkeeper sim with decorating & friendship mechanics.
Workers and Resources, as well as Factorio! (Space DLC of course.) Iβm starting a new game of Factorio with my brother and already sucked in despite not even having green science yet.
Rivals of Aether 2, they did a week long open beta a little over a week ago, and they release fully today. Finally happy to play a damn good mechanically involved platform fighter far away from the legal clutches of Nintendo. Other than that ive been dipping my toes into Throne and Liberty.
Valheim
Don't Starve Together!
I just started getting into Enshrouded. It seems fun so far, but I haven't gotten very far yet. I'm playing with a group of friends and it seems a little harder to juggle solo vs group play in Enshrouded than it was in Valheim since it's more quest/exploration based for experience.
Got Yellow Taxi Goes Vroom last night and absolutely had a blast. It's like a collect-a-thon style game where you play as a living taxi who has to collect green gears to stop Alien Mosk and his oil.
I also got around to an updated version of Shotgun King: The Final Checkmate. It's chess, but you are a single chess king piece with a shotgun vs various other pieces on the other side who normally can only move normally. Beat the enemy king and get a card to buff you, and your opponents. Simple gameplay.
