Already played and beaten Sundered. It was good. Loved the artstyle and bosses. Not a fan of the roguelite elements, this game would've benefited from real designed maps. I wish games would ditch that annoying trend.

I found it refreshing.
But Sundered has real designed maps: the overarching main level design is always the same (and thoughtful it is), it's only the small filler corridors connecting the larger areas that are surprising at each turn. Ever changing corridors go well with the descent into madness that comes with the Lovecraft mythos.
To me, Sundered surpassed Dust, Super Metroid and Castlevania SotN.

I'm currently on Act 3 of Spiderman, I just whooped Electro and Vulture. Once I finish with Spiderman I'll dig into Ghost of Tsushima, I already have the game installed. Hopefully I can also find some time to play a bit of Yakuza Kiwami 2 which just dropped on Gamepass. Owning multiple consoles is taxing sometimes.

After beating TLOU ad TLOU2 in quick succession (quick? took me 2 months lol), I need something a little lighter in my life.
So I'm going to try playing through LittleBigPlanet Karting. If my PS3 can download the damn thing, it's taking forever... anyone here played through it?

Death Stranding (PC), folks that pass it off as a 'walking simulator' are really missing out on something unique and addictive, im at 50 hours and only halfway through the main story due to so many side quest opportunities which also help you with leveling up your gear etc. Also looks and runs amazing on PC

So I got a new laptop that is a bit more technological than a toaster and I'm able to play some games. I'm playing DUSK. It's amazing thus far, love the atmosphere, the movement, the MUSIC HOLY FUCK, the everything. I'm going to have so much fun with these boomer shooters. Amid Evil next!

The Last of us 2 is really fucking good so far. Just arrived to Seattle and it's been one hell of a trip. Started out pretty slow, some character building, plot establishment and so on but it's been changing gears pretty fast now. The big chase from the infected was directed really fucking well. Super intense.
I gotta say, it's very interesting where they've taken the plot. Exciting stuff. Too bad I got major spoilt by fuck faces on the forum. Some scenes would have had greater impact for sure, had assholes not ruined the fun. But that's the fucking internet today.
Anyway, Naughty Dog are masters of their craft. The storytelling, the atmosphere, the directing, graphics, gameplay, animations, characters, everything is just so damn well done. They have a level of polish no studio can ever come close to.

Metroid Prime via Dolphin on PC with the Elite Controller. I actually feel kinda dirty doing that. 
Took me a bit to find the best Dolphin version for it but now that I have it... Man, the game looks and runs superb on PC. Blows me away.
If someone from Nintendo is reading this: Do not judge me folks if you are incapable of bringing the Trilogy to the friggin Switch. I would have gladly paid for it.

The Last of us 2 continues to deliver. There have been a couple of really intense sequences recently. The car chase was extremely well done. It's fucking amazing how seamless everything is, from cut scene to gameplay, just goes in and out of eachother, so fluid and flawless it makes my jaw drop. I'm in awe at everyone of these moments.
The story is gripping and compelling, with sudden turn of events in every corner. Ellie is believable as a seasoned warrior, hell bent on her revenge quest. She gets banged up pretty good and overall it's one hell of an emotional ride.
I also love the little details that Naughty Dog puts in, like Ellie having a Playstation 3 with a copy of Jak and Daxter or one of the WLF soldiers playing Hotline Miami on a PSP on her break.
Stuff like that does so much for the atmosphere and immersion. It shows just how much care and love ND puts in their games. The attention to detail is second to none.

Just finished AC 1, AC 2, and am now playing Brotherhood for the first time. I seriously love it and Rome is amazing. It feels like a smoother AC 2.
Once I finish up, going through Revelations (also first time), AC 3 Remastered, Black Flag, and then Rogue (first time).

Do you not feel like you need a break between AC games? I tend to play and enjoy one game every few years
Speaking of which just finished Spyro 1. I enjoyed it but not sure if I want to play anymore. Do 2 and 3 really mix things up?
Apart from that I'm playing through Blood and Truth on the PSVR. Its alot better playing that standing up (unlike most VR games).

I'd say yes. The levels are bigger and you have actual tasks in them to complete. I enjoyed 1 as well but not nearly as much as 2. Give it a shot.

Death Stranding. I was shocked to see that I'm already 20 hours in. Time feels like it's flying by. I love building roads, making rope-paths, and dropping ladders across rocky gaps and deep rivers. It's a strange way to interact with the open world, but it works. It's essentially a mountaineer / climbing simulator, so the fact that you can do it multiplayer is cool. The Tomorrow Children had a similar "help out the community" mechanic but this works significantly better.

Hellbound. Big, dumb 90's inspired gore soaked shooter. The demo was a rush, pretty much the same here. Keep running and shooting and that seems to be it. I did read that the game contains only seven levels, I've done three in just over 30 minutes so I'm guessing another hour or so? Certainly the €10 price tag reflects such a possibility.

I bought a sex doll, but I keep it inflated 100% of the time and use it like a regular wife
This happened to me around the middle of Act II. Game is good but started to feel repetitive, so I went with:
Sekiro, replaying this for the first time and wtf, it's much, much easier than the first time.
I've reached the part where I need to climb Castle Ashina again and, at this point, I've beaten all bosses on first try, including both monkes.
Also, the first F.E.A.R on extreme difficulty. Got my ass handed a few times, but it feels very rewarding when you manage to wipe a full squad. Still a long way till I finish the game tho.

Since finishing Persona 4 Golden on Steam a week ago or so - I've been taking break from playing games.
I think I will start on Resident Evil 7.
Unfortunately my body is not VR ready... I've tried with SeaBand, and had some ginger as well - but while it was better than before, but couldn't imagine playing a long session that I like to do - and that abandoned guest house, I just couldn't get over how creepy that place is, it really made me sick to the stomach, on top of motion sickness.
I will see if I can muster my courage once more tonight, and perhaps revisit with VR later on.
---
Just passed the guest house and got killed by Jack Baker with shovel. After dying a few times, I called it a night.... but this game is damn scary.
I think I would have shitted myself if I played it with VR... so many "in your face" approach that really sticks out, even on non-VR environment.

Playing Borderlands 2 on Switch. I'm really liking this trend of PC ports with all DLC for $30-40.
Sounds wierd, but I might stop buying unproven games that aren't on at least 3 platforms already with all DLC.
Really enjoying playing games in handheld mode. Even with a dock in the same room, and both Diablo2 and Borderlands2 on my PC in the next room.
I really wish I didn't have to clean my joycons so often, but I'm lovin' me some switch!

Surprisingly no! I love the series to death and the gameplay doesn't get old for me. Stealth assassinating is my jam. I didn't mention in my post, but I've been playing AC nonstop since May.
AC Unity: 35 Hours
AC Syndicate: 36 Hours
AC Origins: 35 Hours
AC Odyssey: 95 Hours
AC 1: 22 Hours
AC 2: 26 Hours
And now I'm 7 Hours into Brotherhood
I've never been addicted to a series like this before lmao. Can't wait for Valhalla on PS5! it has actually gotten in the way of other games. I have Last of Us Part 2 and Ghost of Tsushima, but haven't started them yet.

Ah wow
. I've put a similar amount into Odyssey. I've got the season pass but haven't even started yet.

Nice work dude. I finished AC odyssey this year, was my first AC game since 2 and It beat my record for hours pumped into a single player game, which was held by Final Fantasy 12 on the PS2. I got the plat in Odyssey and finally stopped playing a tad over 300 hours.
I'm playing a few games on and off but my serious now playing game is Ghost of Tsushima which I just bought and started, this will be my swansong PS4 game. Last of Us was my PS3 one.

Ah wow
Haha nice! That was my time with the season pass. I didn't do most of the side stuff because I wanted to see how the main storylines played out.

Thank you thank you. It was the most time I've ever put into a single player game. The game itself is just so much fun to play stealthy (went full assassin build) that I never got tired of clearing bases. And it is the most beautiful open world I've ever played in. The Atlantis DLC cranks up the beauty as well. Elysium reminded me of that one realm in God of War with the bright colors.
I enjoyed it a lot more than Origins, which surprised me. Origins has a great setting, but it just wasn't as fun to play. By the end of the main story, I was just glad it was over. And I was so underleveled that I was locked out of the DLC. I'll have to go back and grind 10 levels (ugh) so I can even start the Hidden Ones.
On the other hand, I only started to lose a little bit of enthusiasm for Odyssey around the 90 hour mark. People knock Odyssey for not being true AC, but if you play full stealth, it feels like AC to me.

Death Stranding on PC
Took a little bit of time to get into it but having done a couple of restarts (as is my way with most games) I've started to really enjoy it and appreciate the mechanics. I very much like the overall game play system and the co-operative nature of building out infrastructure with other players, however at the same time the game UI has some real issues to it that are hard to overlook and I'm kind of surprised weren't addressed with the Port. There's a lot of needless coming out of one menu in order to go into another one in relation to the management of cargo that just feels flabby for want of a better word. Stuff like adding goods to recycling should just be an option on the context drop down versus it's own separate activity coupled with an apparently unskippable 'Thank you for your contribution' cut-scene. Presumably Kojima's Playtesters racked up thousands of hours of this sort of busywork and yet seemingly no one had either the balls or insight to suggest a bit of common sense rationalisation to reduce the time spent in the UI. Hoping that some mods come out that maybe address this sort of thing down the road.
In many ways the game reminds me somewhat of No Mans Sky, albeit centred around delivery versus exploration, with an overarching mystery to solve. It definitely has that contemplative aspect to it (which is a plus in my book). Albeit I'm really into the co-op (lost package delivery is my speciality it seems) a part of me does kind of hanker for doing an offline play through just in terms of seeing the landscape devoid of all the many markers , though thankfully photo-mode does at least mitigate that.
