Let's Talk About Games

Took about a decade off gaming and Needed some "new" games in the pandemic. Bought some new games last year, Skyrim ultimate everything in a bundle, also bought Fallout 3-new Vegas bundles. Skyrim was awesome and I played it for about a year, FO 3 was ok, loving 4, heard New Vegas is the best.

Other than that I play super old school, emulator games for SNES, N64 when I have a bit of time.

I have a weird philosophy where I don't try things until they're about 10 years old, games, TV shows, etc. I figure I am pretty much guaranteed an epic experience if people are still talking about it at that point.

Apparently, for me, the better question is, "Which games newer than 6 years are you playing?" It turns out I dont play many new games, just Elden Ring and Jedi Fallen Order ( which is 5 years old even). Deep rock might squeeze in there, but it just turned 6 years old

Titanfall 2

I've been replaying red dead 2 which turns 6 this year :P

Replaying hollow knight ahead of the imminent release of silk song. It’s so close that I can taste copper.

AC Origins

Victoria 2. I like 3, but I've got a heavily modded megacampaign with my friends going and I don't know 3 well enough to tweak it yet. 2 is still a great game.

Also Assetto Corsa. Competizione looks fun but I like driving stuff other than GT cars

Battlefield 3 or 4 and Halo MCC. Also Skullgirls.

I'm never not playing Skullgirls. Somehow still going, Marie DLC just dropped last week.

Gran Turismo 4

Didn't realise before but this seems right. This year I am playing persona 4, Celeste and the witcher, all more than 6 yrs old

Software Inc (Early access since 2015) Raft (EA since 2018, full release 2022)

just finished another solid bloodborne playthrough, gotta love the logarius wheel and whirligig saw

RDR2 and Factorio

Super Smash Bros Melee

The Long Dark, came out of early access in 2017, so I got the game earlier than that and it still has updates.

Dishonered 1 and 2, a playthrough every year, Witcher 3, Mad Max, MGS V, Prey, theres tons of good games to play a second, third or yearly playthrough.

Just recently I started replaying “VA-11 Hall-A: Cyberpunk Bartender Action”. I'm also working on Rune Factory 4 Special - the remake is only 4 years old, but the original is from 2012. I still periodically fire up Castle Crashers from time to time, and I have yet to give up on my much-procrastinated attempt at Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (the Xbox 360 version).

There are many others, but that's just off the top of my head.

Star Wars the old republic.

I played the absolute FUDGE out of KoToR back in the day, and played SWTOR at launch. But coming back to it after a decade plus just lets me enjoy the story. I won't say its a perfect MMO, because its just not. But oh gawd does the story get good!

Almost exclusively Final Fantasy 14 with some Warframe and a smattering of older puzzle games.

Rocket League has been a big one for me recently. But I've actually been making an effort to play new stuff besides that, like Alan Wake 1&2, Cyberpunk, and Baldur's Gate 3.
