Lately (past couple of weeks), I've been back into Wizard101. It is a fun, slow-paced, mindless game, but I keep running into "KingsIsle crap" at almost every turn.
Otherwise, my umpteenth Skyrim playthrough (one of these times, I WILL find all of those damn stones!) is skipping along nicely.
I did get XCom 2 War of the Chosen in a recent spring sale and have started a run through that game.
On a back burner, I have my recently acquired Civilization 3 & 4 to look at.
I have been watching some Twitch streams and Far Cry 5 looks interesting, but not my cup of tea. It is fun to watch, though. Cohhcarnage is doing a "God of War" run through in anticipation of the new release later this month. He's in the middle of the first one right now. Both he and I missed that "craze" when the games first came out

Personally the only modern MMORPG trend that annoys me is the idea that MMOs need to be designed in a way to attract people who don't actually like MMOs. Which to me makes about as much sense as someone trying to figure out a way to get vegetarians to eat at their steakhouse. - FARGIN_WAR
If you keep playing all the games that are just popular you'll keep playing a lot of bad games.
It's when I read that kind of crap that I regret the freedom of speech you have when face to face with someone and not on a moderated forum... I guess he also craps on popular books, popular movies, etc...
Could probably use a tad more moderation around these parts, especially when folks go wildly off topic .

Path of Exile (Hardcore only).
Once you play HC you will never go back, then again, i played d2 on HC only so it is all i know. I can't even play an ARPG without it being hardcore.
PoE = my old faithful
Conan exiles = Stopped may pick it up when it launches
Civ 5 = a few hours a month
Haven't turned on my xbox in awhile.
May look into LiF but will probably not go for it.
