Either Return of the Obra Dinn or Tyranny. Tyranny has been in my steam backlog for a little bit, but it feels like something I need to be ready to get mentally invested in
Patient Gamers
A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Of newer games i am considering super mario bros wonder or tears of the kingdom. But i also never played metroid prime (had it on gc but hated the controls) - just not sure if i want to play it on wii (i liked corruption controls) or the remastered version om switch.
Ill probably also start a ds game i never got to play in parallel.
Maybe uncharted on ps3? Never playes those. As you can see i have not yet decided :p
If you have a pc/steamdeck there is a metroid prime hack pack that gives you more standard joystick controls for all three games. I'd recommend playing that way.
Started playing Horizon Forbidden West again on my Christmas vacation. I put it down after completing the first area, but have some renewed interest.
I am also finishing up Death's Door on my Steam Deck, which is a great little game.
I am also going to try something I did in the past to help get me through some games. I'm going to set a goal of completing 2 games a month. The biggest issue in the past was not putting down games that weren't interesting me enough. I have the free time, just need that extra motivation.
I'm not sure yet, tangentially related but is there a community to get gaming suggestions here?
I doubt it, but you could always make a post here and you’ll get some responses I’m sure. Folks here are very good at answering questions
Return to Moria has been really fun! Playing online with my buddy all day the last two days.
Pretty slow moving for a survival/crafting game, but we're both big Tolkien fans and the fan service is pretty great.
Boss fights have been quite interesting and when progression finally happens it feels really satisfying.
I just started the thaumaturge and it's freaking awesome. Looking forward to Stalker 2 later this year after they patched it a bit more
I spent a mostly uneventful morning sailing the high seas in Sea of Thieves. It was nice.
I’m going to try getting back into RDR2, and start on Undertale and Prey. Maybe Shadowrun: Hong Kong and Fallout 4?
I started playing No Man’s Sky again recently. My game from XBox didn’t transfer to Steam and I didn’t feel like trying to troubleshoot it, so I just started fresh. I’ll probably play that until my new character has unlocked everything.
I also picked up Stray and haven’t yet gotten into it much. I also recently bought Everspace, but haven’t even started the game yet. Soon, though.
Started Grim Dawn (ARPG) and Genesis Order (AVN, although I suppose that one is fairly recent).
Finally grabbed a copy of Sekiro, and though I’ve never been much of a fan of uncompromisingly punishing games, I’m optimistic that this will be the one that gets me there.
Haven’t started it yet, so it’s possible, if not likely that it’s going to kick my ass.
Sekiro is awesome! I really hope you enjoy it. If you feel stuck, just watch fightincowboy's guides on youtube. It helps to view the fights from a calmer perspective -- it's better imo for learning patterns than throwing yourself over and over again at a boss.
Thanks! That’s good advice. Even in easier games I always have to stop and remind myself to chill and figure out the pattern. And whenever I do, it’s much more manageable and ultimately more fun.
Just started Disgaea 1. For whatever reason I've bounced off this game half a dozen times since first trying it all the way back at release, but I've more or less settled into a groove with it now.
Having a good time with it, though I'm wondering if I should pick up a manual or something somewhere. Kind of obtuse systems and details I'd normally be able to get out of the UI, but not here.
I've had games where it can take a few tries to get into it. Some of them have ended up being my favorite games.
Elden Ring’s expansion! I failed the tree boss multiple times, with help.
Noe, Class of ‘09: the Re-Up!
Make sure that's the last class of 09 game you play. Do not. Play Flip side.
I've been playing Sonic Frontiers, which has been surprisingly fun. It has a similar vibe to what "Mario Odyssey" did for mario, the mixture of 3D, camera controlled, and 2D segments was done well in my opinion.
I am currently playing ORAS, BOTW and Rayman Legends, after finishing at least one of them I'll start with Metroid Zero Mission for once, to break that nightmare deal I did to myself of not playing more metroidvanias until I get to finish Super Metroid and SOTN!
Yakuza 3. Probably for the 3rd time as well because there was too much time since I played and lost track of the plot.
Playing through the entire Dragon Age series, then Pillars of Eternity and Sea of Stars.
Pokémon Crystal and Red Ded Redemption 2
You’re in for a treat. Both great games
Continuing Metaphor: ReFantazio. It's the most consistently polished game Atlus made (that I played) in years, though maybe SMT VV has a chance once I get to it. The only ones that come to mind are Persona 5/Royal (however much I prefer P3 and P4), and Etrian Odyssey V. Both of which had longer development times compared to their series, who knew?
My only complaint is that it doesn't have any 10/10 aspect that I'd love, most of my favourite games are somewhat flawed anyway, as long as they have that special aspect that clicks. But then, Persona 3 had nothing like that until the endgame, so there's still time for it to surprise me.
Hopped back into Octopath (the first one) after finishing Sea of Stars. It's a honker of a game haha I feel like it's going to take me a while.
I'm still playing Warband
Replaying ranked Mario kart and seeing the meta evolve has been cool. There are so many yoshis now.
I'm gonna be booting up Pathologic 2 once my new computer comes in.
