Codex 2016 - The Age of Grimoire Make the Codex Great Again! Grab the Codex by the pussy Bubbles In Memoria
Did some map painting in Field of Glory: Empires combined with Field of Glory 2.

Tried Yakuza: Like a Dragon, but I'm not in the mood for that.

Bard's Tale 4 -is comfy.

Warhammer 40k: Gladius - Why people call this 4x? Got bored.

Some quick sessions with Unexplored 2 and Depths of Peril.

Mechajammer.
Cleared few areas.

Vampire Hunters - It's basically a FPS version of Vampire Survivors. Unless you're doing a boring, OP build like all revolvers, the game can be pretty hectic. Good, mindless fun.

It doesn't look great but it's pretty well executed for its genre:

Finished Soulstice after a year. Devil May Cry-inspired. Left my thoughts in the thread. Don't recommend it. Poor.

Made a lot of progress in Tomb Raider III. Nevada and London done, just started Pacific Islands. Way more engaging than most new games. Would rather be stuck and annoyed for a time than have it all so clearly laid out and obvious, and I get stuck a lot in these games.

Dungon Crawl. I played troll who learned few spells in spite of INT 12. He might get into INT 14. That would be crazy.

Mage who kills nearly everything in hand to hand combat, and for the rest there is confusing touch. He can actually cast spells up to level 3. That's crazy that allows stuff like amplify his regeneration with regeneration. And possibly casting silence.
Actually I also played Starcom unknown space.
Witch Spring R.
Totally accurate battle simulator.
Hammerting.
Spellcaster University.
And one of more crazy German HoI4 game.

Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor

A nice change for the Vampire Survivors clones. This one has the added layer of mining to switch up the usual gameplay.


Halls of Torment

Tried picking this one up again but it's a bit boring after Deep Rock.


Lord of the Rings Online

One of the better representations of Middle Earth in game format.

Pool of Radiance - It was all right but can't say I loved the hordes of kobolds and orcs.
Milo and the Magpies - Short and dull kitty adventure.
Prey (2017) - Still early in the game. It's a little boring.
Curse of the Azure Bonds - Should be done with this in a couple of days, maybe. It's been ok.

  • Quake - (Halfway through Episode 3.)
  • DooM - (Eternal Doom, the PWAD.)
  • Diablo 2 - (Just playing around with an old Skelemancer.)
  • Shadow Warrior - (At least the main character has more personality than Ion Fury's.)
  • Jazz Jackrabbit - (Many hours were given to this game as a kid; sadly the magic is now long gone.)
  • XCOM 2: War of the Chosen - (Finished a playthrough begun a while ago.)

Age of Darkness: Final Stand
Perhaps one of the worst games I have ever willingly played. Everything about it feels like it was created back in 1997, but with a modern and extremely buggy and unoptimized engine. Nonsensical story that I'm pretty sure was written by GPT, boring gameplay, just complete dogshit in every department.
Literally had this in my cart haha, thanks I guess

I also replayed Shogun 2 - once gain with my fav clan both mechanically and historically, the Takeda.
Don't you feel that Warhammer is significant decline when it comes to tactical depth?

You can play as undead factions. But the problem is they changed morale system, and removed ninja assassination videos.
