Steel Division 2. This is a World War 2 real-time tactics game. Hadn’t gotten around until trying it.
-
WARNO. This is a late-Cold-War real-time tactics game. Same developer, very similar functionality, different setting. I play both this and Steel Division 2 single-player, though both are really intended to be multiplayer games. Fortunately, the opposing AI has become considerably more-sophisticated since Wargame: Red Dragon, the preceeding game from the developer.

Starfield. Wanted to get mods working correctly in Mod Organizer 2. Turned out that there was a bug in winevulkan’s code that Mod Organizer 2 tripped at launch; if one has the Nvidia Vulkan drivers installed on one’s Linux system, but no Nvidia hardware, it aborts (!status, line 305, winevulkan/loader.c, if anyone else is hitting this). Ensured that I could get Mod Organizer 2 working, then held off waiting for more Starfield mods to be implemented. Probably should report or patch the bug, but was too lazy to go track down the precise component in Proton’s mess of components.

Carrier Command 2. Another multiplayer-oriented real-time-tactics game that I play single-player. Think I’ve pretty much seen everything here; uninstalled. Maybe it’ll be fresh if it sits in storage for some years.

Played a little Noita. Action roguelite side-view game.
-
FTL: Faster than Light. An older action roguelite, but felt like pulling it out again.
-
Rule the Waves 3. Naval warfare real-time-strategy game.
-
Cult of the Lamb. Action roguelite. Been meaning to get around to this for a while. It’s fun, though I didn’t feel that it was as game-changing relative to the state of games at the time as, say, The Binding of Isaac, another favorite action roguelite.

Under Night In-Birth II [Sys:Celes] - Uzuki is here! I haven’t been playing much since Combo Breaker, but now I gotta boot it back up to check out the funny girl with the big hat. She’s an absolute blast to play, I just love big buttons. Streamed an open lobby night, have some highlights: 1 2 3 4 5
Splatoon 3 - Had a long session with our coach picking apart two replays from our last LUTI set, they
thoroughly exposed how incompetent we all aregave us a lot of helpful advice on what our team needs to work on.Persona 4 Golden - Still early in, finished Kanji’s dungeon. My attention’s getting split between too many other stuff but I will finish this thing eventually.
Mahjong Soul/Riichi City/IRL mahjong - Last two weeks have been rough at the local club, I am not doing so hot in league standings. Shoulda drawn better tiles.
Summon Night Swordcraft Story - Browsing through what to play next on my Miyoo Mini Plus, just felt like revisiting an old childhood favorite. Still waiting for the third game’s translation patch…
Slay the Spire - Packmaster runs are second monitor content while I watch Youtube. Chill comfort game.
No Man’s Sky!
I gave it another try and I’m starting to get into the flow of the game now. I will say it has a bit of higher entry barrier than you would expect, but I start to get why people love this game so much after it’s countless updates.
Can recommend if you’re into that space vibe where you just travel, discover, and build towards specific things.
Barely had time to play anything, but Guild Wars 2, Elder Scrolls Online, and Warframe I’ve at least been collecting the daily rewards.
Played some Wordscapes and Pokemon Go on my phone, but I’m recovering from a crash so I haven’t really been feeling up to gaming recently.
