I had a really long gap from gaming, I just couldn't get enthusiastic about it. Recently 2 point hospital (the spiritual successor to Theme Hospital) was released and it's so good, so I've spent a large amount of time in that which has been really fun, and I've had this surge in wanting to play games. I seriously think these ups and downs that happen for me occur over periods of years, it's largely down to the massive amounts of rubbish that is released these days, and just waiting until there's a few really cool new games out, stuff that innovates and isn't built around corporate DLC and P2W greed.
I played a lot of Kingdom Come Deliverance, I waited for it to be patched before buying which turned out to be a very smart move, but as of right now it's a great game, but I burned out on that somewhat, I think too much side questing and not enough main story line, but after I've finished Tomb Raider I'll go back and finish that. Hopefully in 4k now I have my 2nd 1080.
I played this early access game called Breathedge which is very much like Subnautica but in space, it's kinda all there mechanics wise so far but just needs more areas introduced which are being built now so cannot wait for those to be released, that game is super funny and enjoyable to play. But that gave me the itch to try Subnautica again which I have not played since early beta. That was quite fun grinding for materials and building the base and exploring the environment, very rewarding progression and exploration, so I'm quite far through that now I think, one I'll try and finish soon.
I've been playing Shadow of the tomb raider a lot as well, I'm 100% that game as I go as I find that quite fun, it has a great balance of puzzles, exploration and combat which keeps me interested, the reboot has been really well made I think and I've 100% the previous 2 games. There's like a horror based tomb this time around which freaked me out last night, seriously intense. And it's a beautiful looking game in 4k ultra.
I still play those HoG (Hidden Object Games) on steam to relax, they're a few quid in steam deals and only take a few hours and keep my brain active solving puzzles, even thought they're not that hard.
I really want to be excited by the new Dishonored 2, I loved playing the original stealth style and ghosting the entire game but started doing that with the sequel recently and just couldn't bring myself to get very far, I think because ghosting it really take an astonishing amount of effort and patience, that's one I might come back to soon.
The only other thing was a small indie game called FAR: Lone sales, that was a nice relaxing game with some basic puzzles and a nice feeling of progression, very beautiful game with fairly simple mechanics, another great one to relax to.
