Noita, Caves of Qud, Trails in the Sky Second Chapter
I've spent so long on Noita, I love it and it treats me so badly. I'm really not very good at it. I've barely scratched the surface and largely stopped after I had a successful (basic no secrets) run. I still go back to nuke myself into oblivion every now and then. I do love setting everything on fire.

Including yourself, as is tradition.
Of course it would be rude not to.

Rimworld, Dave the diver, football manager, xcom2 wotc
I finished Dave the Diver a few weeks ago, and I really enjoyed it. For me, it hit this sweet spot of "Remember where everything is and grind the same thing over and over" without getting boring.
in the quest to fill an outer wilds-shaped hole in my life I have picked up and am currently playing The Witness, Fez, and The Talos Principle. Also I've been slowly working my way through Chips Challenge and The Baba is You since like 2020.
Those are some nice games and while nothing could yet fill the Outer Wild shaped hole for me (except the DLC, play that one if you haven't yet) I can also recommend the following games which are in one way or another similar (but again: only in certain parts, nothing is like OW yet):
Also: play the Talos Principle DLC if you like the atmosphere and style of the main game. I really enjoyed the forum/community board feeling from the imprisoned robots in the DLC as somebody who lived through the 2000's internet era.
I beat Metroid: Zero Mission a few weeks ago (that's probably the 7th game I've completed in 30+ years of gaming hahah) and I'm thinking of going through the rest of the series.
I’ve been really into Arcade Racers lately. Played the following recently:
-Blur
-Split/Second
-Ridge Racer 6
-Outrun 2
-Inertial Drift
-Burnout: Revenge
-Dirt 5
-Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
-Neodash
I’m looking forward to Parking Garage Rally Circuit coming out later this year. If anyone has any recommendations I’m all ears.
Cult of the Lamb and No Man's Sky.
How are you liking cult of the lamb? It seems like fun
DRG. Rock and Stone!
Recently played through Skies of arcadia on Gamecube (emulation). Always wanted to play as a kid, but for some reason i never bought it even though i actively saved up for it at one point. Was fun but wow am i glad i emulated it, because they do NOT respect your time. Being able to use save slots and to fast forward over the long battle animations (i skipped 8 hrs of that in total...) was essential for me actually playing through it.
Sort-of PS3 Shadow of the Colossus, but the physics engine gives me heart palpitations. Wondering if I should switch to the remaster someday, if that improves anything…
Also, Daemon X Machina on PC, which is fun, but also too story-lite for my preferences.
Workers & Resources: Soviet Republic.
It's like Cities: Skylines mixed with Factorio.
Max Payne, first time playing since I bought the game nearly 15 years ago believe it or not. I plan on playing Max Payne 2 (which I've never completed) next.
I've been playing No Man's Sky since they released the 5.0 content update. It's made a huge difference in the look and feel of the game with things like modeled weather and oceans, and I've recently learned that sentinel attacks stop after you blow up the freighter they warp in.
Thinking of starting Tchia, given its recent addition to Game Pass.
Deathloop.
Cook serve delicious 3?!
Very fun and hectic
Fallout London mostly. It was a pain to install and it crashes occasionally but it's so much fun.
Rat King Adventures, some FOSS top-down dungeon crawler RPG for Android.
Got Astroneer on Steam Summer Sale. Super fun so far!
started the guardians of the galaxy game and i am loving it
Pokerogue: free online pokemon roguelike
fallout 4 - restarted a run after the show came out. loaded a few mods but nothing overboard. still get crashes i have not figured out.
the outer wilds - i tried to like it....not for me.
Diablo 2: resurrected - I miss the days of just buying a game and playing it. no acct bullshit setup, no transactions....buy, install, play.
cod: warzone - bc I'm a sadist....
no man's sky - haven't played since one of the early updates. I'm itching for a new run.
NBA 2k Playgrounds - fun game for quick 30 min play sessions on the steam deck
Wrestling Empire - might not quite be patient since it's not that old, but it kinda is in a way lol. Just a lot of fun and I love the role playing aspect of it
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.
