A Mortician's Tale was a nice relatively short interactive experience about what it is like to work in that occupation and its ups and downs, and an opportunity to reflect a bit on the reality of death.
Patient Gamers
A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I've been playing Hollow Knight thus week. Working on Pantheon 5 for the last achievement. Made it to Traitor Lord last night. Best run yet!
I've been playing RimWorld again after learning two more DLCs came out since I was last addicted. I fucking love Biotech. It adds furries! 😃
I was REALLY patient for this one but: Silent Hill (ps1). I tried to play it last year, ran into the creature in the alley at the very very start and immediately turned it off. Too spoopy for me. Finally decided to try again because the Silent Hill lore is just way too fascinating. Have made it through a lot farther this time (just passed the dog house now) and still going strong.
You are in for a real treat when you make it to the second game!
Quake II remaster (?) by Nightdive in co-op with a friend. It‘s alright. I see it more as a video game history course, everything kinda looks the same so it hasn’t held up too well IMO, but it‘s a good time in co-op. And thank God they built in a navigation system lol
Shadow of the tomb raider (2018). Had to wait to be able to upgrade my computer to play it and after 3 years of owning the game I've finally started it!
Castlevania dawn of sorrow thanks to https://retroachievements.org/
Their weekly highlighted achievement is beating one of its bossos
I started playing Darksiders 3 (2018) over the weekend. Never got around to play it on release because my PC couldn't run it back then.
Just in time. There have been teasers hinting at the final entry in the darksieders quartett
I’ve been playing Kingdom Come: Deliverance (2018) for the past month or so. Haven’t been this immersed in a game world in a long time. Sure it’s a bit janky at parts and gets a while getting used to, but the world is beautiful and the attention to history and realism is incredible!
I got into Guild Wars 2 last week. I really like the fast progression, it's the opposite to every other MMO i've tried that makes you grind hours for a level. I'll reach max level pretty soon after only 10 hours or so playing
GW2 is really refreshing compared to the traditional MMOs
I'm playing Hidden Folks (2017) on Steam Deck, to chill in the evening, it's probably the best where's waldo game on steam ? I don't find the cats series at all engaging
I also reinstalled Darkest Dungeon (2016), this time for sure I will commit to it and not stop after 3 runs 🤡
I love Hidden Folks! Hidden Through Time is another that's basically the same but with color.
Just finished the 5 main endings of Nier Automata and enjoyed it! Wanted to see what the fuss was about (especially after seeing the meme about how doitsujin was motivated to develop DXVK to play it). Enjoyable time and I plan to get all the endings.
Next on my list is Mini Motorways and Alien Isolation :)
If you're a sucker for side content, there's a ton of short stories and novellas (even a musical) that the fans have translated: I just got Ending E | The Ark Wiki
Kept the setting alive for just a little longer, and added some more context to the world and characters. Massive spoilers for anyone who hasn't beat Automata though.
