What are you playing right now?

Aliens versus Predator Classic 2000.
Dirt cheap on steam and infinitely better then the mediocrity that was Aliens Vs Predator 2010.
 
I remember seeing Gitaroo Man a couple times when I was a kid and liking the style so I picked up and starting playing it with an emulator. Damn good rhythm game, the dub is cheesy but likable and the music is bomb. Sadly my computer isn't perfect so trying to play a rhythm game designed to always be at 60fps at 40fps~ is hell incarnate.
 
I got Pillars of Eternity on sale, rolled a Pale Elf Cipher, and have been getting my ass kicked pretty hard.
 
I brought The Long Dark off of GOG last weekend when it went up for sale. Very immersive; survival horror without the horror. I'm looking forward to when they release the campaign.

Finding myself spending Valentine's Day alone and playing video games, I thought "If one game about being cold and lonely in the deep woods is good, why not two?" and got Firewatch.

Just started Lisa. Its been on my need-to-play backlog like everything else, but... Ya.
 
DoomRL. which is a fairly fun Roguelike skinned as doom. and in that vein. DOOMRPG+Arsenal. which turns the proper doom 2 into an rpg and adds elements from Doomrl. its perfectly compatible with multiplayer but sadly theres no one to play it with.

I was playing Cities Skylines during the free weekend.. I learned I am bad at City Management. Apparently nobody wants to live in the Quarter Pounder District of Angusvile.
 
Divinity Original Sin with my brother. We just started today and our highlights include disagreeing with what to do with two drunks and solving our dispute with Rock Paper Scissors. He beat me 5 to 0 somehow. And me getting my shovel privileges banned. The first grave I dug up blew me up and another 2 both had high level skeletons that killed us.
 
was lucky enough to get Fire Emblem Fates special edition, so i now got (technically) 3 new games to plow through.
 
Back to The Witcher 3 again. No fast travel with the exception of definite retracing and moving between discovered islands in Skellige. It's a much more relaxing and less annoying experience than I imagined.
 
BOF3 just came out on Vita finally so I'm playing through it. I never finished it as a kid but it still holds a lot of nostalgia for me. Sadly I missed Garr's best weapon and saved, but I don't really use him much anyway. Ryu/Rei/Peco is da best.

I've been playing this gay little Japanese game called Elona. It's a really weird game, it's sort of like a sandbox game like Minecraft or Day-Z but it's a topdown RPG with survival mechanics and stuff like that.

There's not really a mainstory (yet), so it's all about exploring the world and finding/doing fun stuff. As I said before, it's a really weird game and because of this really weird stuff can happen which adds to the fun. Just a while ago I found a Alien in the wilderness while looking for food to eat and the Alien ended up impregnating me with a Alien baby. There's also this thing where eating the dead bodies of your enemies has a chance of raising certain skills or abilities, but there's also a chance that you can get poisoned or go insane from cannibalism. There's also a very indepth building and crafting system in the game, I've seen people who've turned their houses into Castles and Mansions and crazy stuff like that.

But instead of reading my dumb textwalls you can just experience the game for yourself, it's free and it's a great time waster (you can also play it windowed so you can do stuff in the background for all you sneaky types who get bored at work or whatever)

I've been grinding in Dragon Ball: Xenoverse and praying to my personal Jesus, RNGesus. Spent an hour collecting dragon balls so I could wish for a level. Summoned Shenron, discovered the option was missing from the list of wishes. Googled that bullshit and found out you're supposed to be able to wish for levels multiple times but the option usually vanishes mysteriously after using it one time. Would like to do parallel quests with @Sanic but their servers are ass.

Tunngle has their own servers for pirated games. you could probably try switching to it.
 
Last game I played lately was Condemned: Criminal Origins. Got it off the Make War Not Love thing Sega had. The movement speed reminds me of Arx Fatalis since you seem to only walk and sprint but combat is fun. Also played Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin with a mouse and keyboard. Aside from disabling double click every time I load the game, it's proving to be a fun PC port. Also starting to notice differences not just in enemy placement but also NPC placement (Lucatiel being placed further in No Man's Wharf, Gavlan in a room near a shortcut where you get the brigand set).

Funnily enough, the game does have a mainstory. It's in Japanese though but there is a summary of it on the forum which I can't find for some reason. To sum it up, the story does have you venturing into the dungeon within Lesimas but as you do that, the story itself does put focus on the two you met in the cave home you start off in. They along with Loyter and the gravekeeper in Vernis are part of the story. The gravekeeper is a very important NPC and it all does tie in with Zanan and the etherwind.
 
Are you playing Elona or Elona+? the latter being almost fully translated mainstory wise if i remember correctly

Hmmm, interesting. I guess it's just waiting to be translated then?
