What are you playing right now?

Been hopping on some KOTH in Arma 3.

Doom: Eternal and The Forest.

And I just picked up the REmake on sale, used to play the Director's Cut quite a bit as a young lad.
 
Battlefield 4 on PS4, Verdun/Tannenberg on XB1, and Age of Civilizations 2 on mobile. Surprisingly, BF4 still has a healthy player base.
 
Just finished Mario+Rabbids. Would play a sequel if they made one.

Quick question, is Jedi Fallen Order any good? I've heard different things about whether it's worth picking up.

It is, and you can get on Game Pass if you have a subscription to that.
 
I'm playing through Lunar: The Silver Star (PS1 version with a patch that makes the difficulty more bearable). The Working Designs translation is dated to hell and back with its references, but that's sort of its charm, I feel. The voice acting is also pretty good for a game from the late 90s. Hell, I'd argue the voice acting holds up today, that's how good it is. So far, a solid 8/10.
 
RE4. RE8's trailer got me somewhat hyped, so I'm finally playing RE4. I'd only watched my younger brother play it when it was originally out, so now I'm experiencing it for myself. Through my lack of situational awareness, I've scared the shit out of myself at least three times in the first 3 hours alone. Each time, a pack of sneaky Ganados had snuck up behind me, and I only turned around to look when one of them yelled. The controls were a little clunky for me at first, but I got got hang of it after the first 30 minutes.
 
I'm mostly playing World of Tanks PC and Elite Dangerous. I blow my stack playing tanks and then cool off in deep space doing some exploration or space trucking.

I like to load up GTA4 and go on a 6 star shooting/destruction spree about every 2 weeks. I love how varied and realistic the AI is. Why was GTA5 such a step down in variability and intelligent AI?
Online Gaming that's why, if you can test GTA4's MP mode it's pretty simplistic in a way similar to saints row 2 (no co-op tho), that's why mechanics are dumbed down or made less complex, also driving in gta4 is awful but it was their 1st attempt at realistik physics.

RE4 has good things in there but controls are a complaint i've heard so often, beaten this game to a point of unlocking the pulse gun and replaying after that is more a matter of choice than anything since the game becomes whacky due to the gun's infinite ammo, tommy gun gameplay is fun because of the special anims with the mafia outfit although the 1M/300.000$ cost might turn a few players away. give it some replays once you beat it and try the challenges to unlock stuff for re-runs.

now on topic, right about now i'm on Cyberjank 2077 and got me some glitch videos, my save got so borke to the point my pistol model was switched with a smart shotgun one, i've also play Battlefont 2's mp every now and then because AI mode is fun, Warface and GTA5 because frends that like that, tired Black Desert once but got bored and looked for pserver files, not touching the original server anytime soon...

Finally beat Thief Gold, and with that, have finally finished all three essential immersive sim titles (other two being System Shock 2 and Deus Ex 1).

Gotta say, it has left me really excited to play The Metal Age and Deadly Shadows, and they apparently are even better than the already excellent original.
 
Risk of rain 2, I've been totally hooked on it and working on monsoon difficulty as every survivor but I'm bad as more than half of them.

It's been months since I played a traditional start to finish game, my ape brain is hooked on rouge likes and getting good runs.
 
My quest to burn through my backlog continues.

This time with Ni no kuni 2, picked up the princes edition for 40 bux a few weeks after release on a second hand site, with the code unused.

I'm a few hours in, and a bit disappointed I cant have the monsters fight for me like in the first, and now it just feels like a crappier tales of game, but will keep on playing and see if it grows on me.

Something I like is that equipment can drop out in the wild, and quite regularly, so don't really need to fret about that aspect.
 
Skyrim SE with mods of course.
easy to say that you modded, hard to say "which mods"? do you are fan of using dad mods like realistik combat, there's a thread regarding modlists for beth games in kiwifarms?

try RoR1 too using the GOG version (steam is quite buggy). see where it began and enjoy the RoR2 MP which is cool too even though randoms might be a issue.

TDS might feel a little underwhelming if you cum from TMA and TG, also save a oil flask for once you are being chased, just a tip.

I have played RoR1 it didn't grab me the same way 2 has, I have it on switch and it's been an alright pick up and play game for laying about in my bed but it feels like items matter more than anything you do ability wise whereas RoR2 feels like it needs a lot more thinking on the spot and ability in executing your skills. I've played the MP with friends but it felt like you almost needed to use artifacts to not just end up throwing away 50 min runs times however many people you are playing with in time down the shitter.
 
Star Ocean: Integrity and Faithlessness (Star Ocean 5).

I know a lot of people were disappointed by the small map and how there's not actually much of any interplanetary travel but at least the battle system is satisfying. I just accept that Star Ocean: The Second Story on the original Playstation was the peak of the series for characters and story and that every new game won't be nearly as good.
 
On a whim, I went to Gamestop and bought Onimusha 1 remake. Years ago, I played Dawn of Dreams (that's the 4th one?) so I think I can track the direction of how this dead franchise moved. So, it started off as Samurai Resident Evil and by Dawn of Dreams, they made it an action RPG. For casuals, I guess.

As for the actual experience, I do appreciate that I can use the stick to move because fuck tank controls. Don't like timed puzzles though. That's the sort of thing I look up FAQs for.
 
Worms WMD. Love worms game and the multiplayer is awesome. People do crazy trick shots.
Playing No Man Sky also, i just love to land on a planet scan everything and give them stupid names.
