At the risk of being stereotypical, I'm playing Workers and Resources: Soviet Republic. I just recently finished setting up oil industry and rail for exporting fuel, alcohol, and food. The alcohol is only for export and no-one is addicted. I'm determined to achieve self-sufficiency and am working on the steel industry next!

I've also reinstalled Morrowind with a monstrous Vanilla-Extended Mod Pack from the Open Morrowind Modding community and spent last night sleepily clicking my way through 440 mod downloads. I've succeeded, and am now slightly terrified of the monster I've created.

Started playing Rocket League last week, been fun but damn theres a lot to learn

Got back to playing Tetris, been grinding Lioden and i basically play star stable on a daily basis (not a good game dont recommend it at all💀)

I booted up the powkiddy again last night and found this GBA game called Magical Vacation. RPG type that starts off in the thick of it but it's chill. Looks gorgeous too, the GBA was capable of some pretty good graphics if you were able to put in the effort. There were even proto-3D games.

(looks even nicer animated)

The technical limitations meant you had to be pretty creative and frankly why did we ever move past this era of gaming? (spoiler: it's because even back then we were excited for more realistic graphics). Wonder how long a GBA game can be in terms of gameplay considering the limitation, will know if I ever finish that one lol.

also replayed half life 1, forgot how confusing and frustrating that game could get sometimes but it doesn't go too far for a game of that era. Part of the fun was definitely running around at mach speed so adding puzzles and other blockers kinda felt like a miss. But I also remember playing it as a kid that I couldn't wait for more realistic graphics to come so we wouldn't have the 2D health station texture but actual depth lol.

WHO UP MEWIN THEY GENICS

Eu4, Conquerors Blade and Menace.

Disco Elysium lol.

I'm tyring to unify China under the chairman Mao in the new DLC of HOI4. It's been 20 hours still can't unify China yet. Sometimes, I think that how chairman Mao managed to do it irl. Respect to him.

Not to be a downer, but well... was playing guild wars 2. Then they fucked it up so badly, I don't want to deal with it anymore. So I'm getting back into reading and fiction writing, and trying to move away from my list of hobbies being so dependent on video games. Been burned too many times...

Wonderful medium when it works, just... fucking capitalism, god.

Honestly I have like started three games. Need to go back to baldur gate 2 or gothic 1 and finally finish either.

Still on Silksong, but school has me beat tbh and it's hard to focus on it

Edit: That and the og baldurs gate

I'm about to try Through the Darkest of Times because I'm preparing a second academic paper on videogames, arts and politics.

As far as I know, you have to organise antifas from different walks of life and tendencies in Nazi Germany. Don't wanna know too much because I need to elaborate hypothesis before actually playing it. Then the gaming + analysis will begin.

Going through terraria 1.4.5 and metaphor refantazio, i find the latter really enjoyable since it has some very funny liberal brainworms, the overarching theme is a struggle against the "might makes right" idea of the antagonist Louis, funnily you have to use might to beat him.

Emulated Bloodborne on my PC. Have played all Dark souls games and Elden Ring, but never had a PS4 so no Bloodborne until now. Edit: and I played Sekiro, but didn't really like it ngl. It was too easy, I am not really into samurai stuff and I really didn't care for the lore, which is typical for me, but the other souls games always hooked me with their vague ass cut scenes haha.

Replaying Expedition 33 so I can play the other characters that were basically untouched for my first playthrough (Sciel and Monocco). Also there is new DLC and I still need to beat some super bosses

And emulated Tears of the Kingdom. Beat Breath of the wild last year and liked it a lot. Big Zelda fan and have played almost all of them too.

I wish I could upgrade my PC, but it's just inarguable with the price surges right now lmao. Luckily the emulation is not that intensive and my PC is still good overall✌️

Ive been playing Elden Ring DLC for the past few months without using scadutree shards, spirit ashes, summons, OP weapons, status effects, etc. I'm finally at Radahn and its really fun.

I've recently replayed Tunic after some years. Marvelous game, sadly can't talk much about it without spoilers.

I'm now replaying Fire Emblem Three Houses in preparation to cope about not being able to play Fortune's Weave unless I befriend some wealthy person willing to lend me their switch 2. It's right up there with Banner Saga and Berwick Saga for my favourite tactical RPGs.

Modded New Vegas (VNV), with my spouse! It's been a while since I last played it.

I recently finished Cobalt Core and enjoyed it quite a lot. I'm currently working my way through Shovel Knight after taking a break from Silksong.

I'm playing Forever Skies. its ok but I think I'm getting bored.

i was playing recently call of cthulhu, now i'm in the need of worshipping our ancient lord and bringing forth unspeakable horrors to this neoliberal world

i'm playing too this game of ghost of tsushima: a ronin who has to fight against the ideals imposed by their reactionary ancestors to save the people

Tainted Grail: Fall of Avalon and Total Conflict Resistance.

Tainted Grail is a dark fantasy RPG. It's like if Skyrim was set in the Dark Souls universe. The armor is also very reminiscent of a Souls game and is some of the best looking armor I've ever seen in an RPG. I will admit it does also have a lot of the jank of Skyrim as well but I don't mind it too much.

Total Conflict is a global strategy game that lets you directly control units (a la Mount and Blade, Dynasty Warriors). It's in early access and there is a lot that needs to be worked on but it scratches a few itches for me. I had been looking for a modern global strategy game that also lets you control units directly and this game has that. Plus, you can play as (made up) countries that are explicitly socialist/communist. The game also gives background for these imaginary countries that explains their history and how they became socialists etc. and I think that's pretty cool.

Fortnight and Clair Obscure (finally). I'm at the first real Renoir battle, and I've already lost ten times or so on normal difficulty.

SimRail and Train Sim World 6

Just finished half-life alyx and currently just playing counter-strike loads.

Yesterday, it was Half-Life 3.

Conan Exiles, Mount & Blade: Warband, and Cyberpunk 2077

I've been playing MotionRec, it's a pretty clever puzzler.
