Played Recently:

Been on a hell of a Warframe kick, with the 1999 update releasing. I don't stick with it constantly, but it is always the live service game I keep finding myself coming back to. The amount of content is staggering, and everything always feels relevant so I never get the FOMO that some live service games try to force. The 90s theme of everything in the update is targeting my personal nostlagia centers directly and I love it.

Genres:

Automation, Factory, Strategy, RPG. I like most anything made well, though I shy away from FPS a bit.

TGA 2024 Announcement:

Intergalactic looks pretty amazing, I am a big fan of that kind of retro futuristic aesthetic as well. I am always excited to see what Team Ico pulls off, though I tend to like looking at their games more than playing them.

2024

My favourite thing from 2024 was probably Astrobot. It was just an unadultered delight of a game and won my number 1 spot on my personal GOTY list easily. The sheer volume of factory games we seem to be getting these days is also great for me. Some fantastic JRPGs with stuff like Metaphor and P3 Reload as well.
