Nier Replicant, the modern one
In comparison to other JRPGs it is kinda good, but- not as good as Automata.

So I can recommend NR to those who want to jump in into the series properly, and those who seek old school JRPG

Completed Hades aswell.

RNG made me mad, had to play +25 runs for the last character to popping up.

And now I have so much choices to play, want to play subnautica 2 but also vampire crawlers and forza H 6 is out...

Also I really should play something on my backlog or any of the + 50 games I bought this year that I still have not played.

Yeah I’m fucking hooked to Saros. I’m neither a bullet hell fan or really a fan of anything House makes but yeah .. I mess with this. I’m 4 bosses deep and the story even tho I’m not a story guy has me pretty invested. Just beat my first biome without taking damage, (and unlike the people who cheated it pre patch, my run was all legit) it’s been a long time since the last heart beating out of my chest gameplay I’ve experienced 😁🥹

Baldurs gate 3. Very immersive and addictive.

Got the plat for Saros last night and I can definitely recommend it. I had fun from start to finish. I can easily rank it up there with RE: Requiem and Pragmata as one of the best this year.

I've not been keeping accurate time with Ball X Pit cause I've let it do farming afk and one of the characters plays the game himself. Idk there my margin is now, it's within a 5 hour window and I've no way to tell cause I didn't log, the system time is inaccurate, there's no way I put 40 hours in. Not sure what to do here, it's bugging the shit out of me. Hell, 35 hours seems a bit too much but I'm unsure.

Currently playing on PC:

• Per Aspera (absolutely recommend it to every fan of base-building or colony sims, especially if they like a scientifically sound way of terraforming Mars).
• Rise to Ruins (Pretty much a roguelike Basebuilder)
• Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition (current character: Female Elven Beastmaster)
• Biing! (Erotic and surreal hospital management game from Germany - and tough as bones if you don't know what you're doing!)
• Hearts of Iron IV (specifically the TNO mod, currently playing as Iberia)
• I was a Teenage Exocolonist (A raising sim with a compelling storyline and many interesting characters)

Switch 2:

• Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate (very interesting and pretty good endless dungeon crawler based on the TNMT franchise)
• Ciel Fledge - A daughter-raising simulator (Similar to I was a Teenage Exocolonist on PC, but more action-oriented)
• Thomas was alone (Great puzzle game when you only have a couple minutes to play a bit)
• Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment (still at the beginnings, only got the game last week and didn't have much time to play on the Switch)

Phone:

• Pathos (Basically NetHack with a graphical interface and some slight changes)

End game Ball X pit remained funnuntil the last two or three characters that have weird quirks but I can have them auto run. Even after Platinum I'll dip into NG+ to get the dopamine buzz.

I can n9t understand what I was doing in Halls of Torment, I'm completely stuck and seem underpowered even for stuff I completed. Same goes for my replay of Vampire Survivors even though I am slowly making more progress but still not able to clear a level.

Metal Eden remains untouched, the Doom vibe just isn't enough to make me interested in it but I could lower the difficulty and see it as a kindless experience.

I lost track of my time keeping during Ball X pit and it's annoying the shit out of me, now I have to go on estimates and I could be as far as 10 hours off with just this game when I was already off with Baldurs gate 3. I think I'll just use the HLTB numbers.

Subnautica 2

Love it, one of the best 'just explore' games.
It is early access but it already has 15 hoursish of content and many more
if you play with friends or just want to build a huge base.

Dusk TP, hit about 15 hours. Roughly half way done with the game. Runs flawlessly, zero issues. Still loving the 4k textures and 120 fps. Hoping N64 decomp gets Ocarina next.
