Finished first Quake recently (EXCELLENT game, still very much playable even after nearly 3 decades, definitely 9/10), and currently playing Perdition's Gate, it is kinda unofficial Doom 2 expansion released in 1996, and it had chance to be included in Final Doom (which are two additional official episodes for Doom 2), but ultimately it was decided against it.

Perdition's Gate is kinda interesting as it has some unique elements and I genuinely enjoyed it even though there are probably much better Mega WADs nowadays, later maps are too short though, and it looks like they have made them only to accomplish 32 maps total like in the original game. Secret maps are also... odd... definitely not bad, but.... just odd (and disappointing to some extent I guess), although I am not going to spoil them for you. Also the locations for secrets are also weird.

Interesting and odd is I think the best description for this Expansion/WAD.

I stopped playing on console as my friends don't play anymore. So i went to BGA and i'm having a lot of fun playing King of Tokyo, District noir, Oriflamme and Conspiracy (abyss).

Finishing up Yakuza 6. Outside of that, I've been playing a mix of ESO and Guildwars 2, and enjoying some Rimworld, and Binding of Isaac. The last one basically never leaves my steam installation

RE1 HD remake (had played only about half of the GC one)

Such a wonderful game. For someone like me who grew up with the original, probably the best remake ever made. It's the same, but so much better.

Oh, and Lord of the Rings Battle for Middle Earth 2. Possibly still the best RTS ever made. Change my mind.

I just picked up Shadow of the Tomb Raider after not having touched a Tomb Raider game since PS1, and still never finishing them. It's pretty good! It feels a lot like God of War but with Lara Croft. Makes me want to pick up the previous iterations to get more of the story, since I'm a bit lost, but it's easy to fill in some of the blanks.

Just quit bg3 because it was too buggy. I literally can't beat the final boss so fuck larian hard in that regard. They are getting a real free pass on bugs due to pent up DND demand.

Onto starfield which is probably going to be a mess too 😑
