What Video Games Are You Currently Playing

If anyone buys the new version of NieR, let me know if it’s worth buying, I never played the original:

Finally got around to trying The Outer Worlds. Only got about one hour in so far but I feel like I'm already bored with it for some reason.

All I care about anymore is playing games that let you wreck shit/tear shit up with minimal dialog/story bullshit, as crude as that sounds. 

Is anyone here playing COD Warzone?

Nice Retro platformer. Also, fantastic soundtrack!!!

Yeah, it's pretty nice.

Genesis Noir was good, more of a laid-back interactive graphic novella with some light puzzles, than a traditional game experience, but I just loved almost everything about it. Great visuals, sound, etc... Sometimes it's nice to just kick back and be taken on a journey.

Grim Dawn
A (Diablo-like) Hack-and-Slash Role-Playing Game, set within a dark fantasy Victorian setting. 
From the makers of Titan Quest (now Crate Entertainment).
I backed it years ago on Kickstarter, but only now I started playing it.
Better than Dungeon Siege, Torchlight and Diablo III in my opinion.
You can dual Class. Lots of cool Loot. Good Lore. Different Environments. Secrets. Can be played in co-op.
And of course tons of hacking and/or shooting evil spawn.
Also nice: You can easily switch between Keyboard+Mouse and Controller.
Chill. I really like it.
You can get it for as low as 5€ on sale.

Mario Party for Switch decided to add online multiplayer 2 years after release:

Arguably the best indie throwback shooter to come out in the last three years. Andrew Hulshult is one hell of a talented composer too, even though I don't really listen to metal.

in case any of us thought we were "good" at video games:

Started Dead Cells. Can't get past the bridge boss. I generally suck at these types of games.

Had to dig out the old Wii U, bc it’s about the only place you can play Metroid: Zero Mission, which is my favorite 2D Metroid.

I dunno, I think Super Metroid kind of set the benchmark for all future 2D installments in the series. Zero Mission as a remake of the original NES Metroid is still pretty solid though.

Point and click going for free until the 30th.

Okay, I got the Hand of the King boss in Dead Cells. Got destroyed. Kinda scared to try again as it takes an hour and a half to get that far.

New Ratchet and Clank looks like a playable Pixar movie:

Playing Rachet and Clank remake on PS5 which just got a nice 60fps patch. It looks great.....but it doesn't look like this

as soon as i got hattori's katana the rest was a cakewalk (first run at least). gl!

I deleted the Dead By Daylight mobile app on my iPhone because, even though I was like level 60 or whatever, there were way too many times when I would get killed in less time than it took me to join a damn game. I couldn’t keep playing it on principle. It made me too angry. 
so...

anyone have any recommendations for other iPhone games that are worth checking out??

This set-up worked for me many many times:
