started the tutorial for Victoria 3 today.. seems like it will take far more time than I have to even begin to understand
Yes, Your Grace.
The name made me fearful that this game would be cringe. However, the trailer assured me that it would be awesome. It's very story-driven, and while the narrative is pretty set on rails/linear you do have "importance" of choices when it comes to resource management.
The game has a lot of great humor and music throughout. It even will K.O. punch you right in the feels.
The game also "respects your time" which is great these days...
I've started playing Jenny LeClue: Detectivu, which is one of those children point and click games that was crowdfunded in the early 2010's that is almost played exclusively by adults to feel like children again. it's a good game i doubt it'll be long but it's fun and cute.
probably gonna play submachine: legacy after it which is an interesting puzzler by the looks of it.
I completed BUMPERS & BROADSWORDS: MAXIMUM this week. Free, fairly easy/casual, short, fun mechanics, highly recommend

I finally beat the final campaign level in Brigador (a top down isometric mech game with crazy good art, atmosphere, and writing, albeit made by at least one bigot) and Im thinking of seeing whats new in Zero Sievert (a top down 2D survival shooter with rpg elements that draws heavily from S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and Escape From Tarkov) tonight since I haven't checked in on that game in a hot minute. I really wanted to get started on Heaven Will Be Mine (space lesbian mech pilot visual novel, the @halimede twitter account is based off of a character from this) but it just doesnt want to run through proton and now Im kicking myself for not getting the version on itch.io thats built to be linux compatible.
If you already paid for it i would yarr that version.
That's so real, good point
Balatro has been eating up a lot of my time. Was playing Hardcore on Diablo 3, but then the server crashed and killed my monk (wasn't even anywhere dangerous). So I got tilted back to Balatro. Gonna finish up my draft on Magic Arena then play some Vermintide 2.
FNV mod "The Better Angels", B+ for what it is, takes an hour or two, it's essentially free of the edginess that characterizes New Vegas Bounties except one scene of civilian executions that you can stop. and also escaping slaves accidentally running onto your mines but that's sort of on me. the main course is Caesar's Legion doing a 30 minute long assault on a river beachhead you're at with the NCR which is a huge experience farm if you're an ace on the rifle like me & set loads of mines around. best to bring a posse of companions because even with me nailing 50+% of the legionaires all the named characters in camp besides the essential ranger died lol. probably missed some repartee between the ghoul and the supermutant buddies if they manage to survive
The someguy series has its ups and downs, but at this point is tied to the identity of New Vegas modding.

Started another attempt at pathologic 2. It’s actually been quite a while since I’ve played any games, but patho has been showing up in my dreams lately, so I decided to give it another go
Last week, after 137 hours, I finally finished Trails into Reverie. It was good. It's a pure fanservice game and a pretty okay epilogue for the Cold Steel and Crossbell characters. The cast for Cold Steel/Crossbell has ballooned to 40+ characters and it was nice to be able to play as them all and create teams for whoever you liked. It's more a third Crossbell game than a Cold Steel game and you finally get some much needed closure for the Crossbell characters and their battle for independence. The story did get kinda wacky at times lol, but I'm glad to finally move onto Trails through Daybreak and onto another new country/story arc.
I'm currently playing the first Ace Attorney trilogy and enjoying it. I'm replaying AA1 after many years and can't wait to play the other games in the trilogy. I'm on the final case of AA1 and will try to finish it tonight. 
Victoria 3, finished my Japan playthrough and started a Prussia->Germany playthrough to try for the Hegemony goals achievement. While I wasn't paying attention, Great Britain has conquered Vietnam before 1880, and now they're trying to protectorate Egypt which seems... a bit much. Heavenly Kingdom shattered Qing so I've been going in and picking up some of the smaller countries as protectorates to get ready for the "control 40% of the world's population" goals. Might try to grab some GB stuff by joining in the Egypt war, idk.
My economy is so bad lmao -300k, way into the red, but interest is only like -5k so who cares, build more fuckin' iron mines.
Guild Wars 2. Sometimes, I just mess around on the mounts without any actual goal in mind.
Kirby forgotten land. I have this one last closseum gauntlet to get through and the secret bosses are annoying
Path of Exile! Just hit 93 on my icicle mine deadeye, a hair under 6m dps and the build is mostly "done" in that relevant upgrades would be dozens of div when I have made ~65 all league.
Currently focused on the "delve to 400 depth" challenge.
Tabletop, DnD, board games, and minecraft. Also Animal Crossing.
