What games do you guys play other than POE?

The GF really enjoyed V rising and honestly there aren't many games she and I enjoy together (MMOs are too rando-centric; she's too smart for ARPG grinding; For Honor got old and Anthem...sigh) so I will take it. All else is secondary. We will likely play it once a week or so, she hosting and a friend or two along for the ride.

PvE is nice but the fact that you can do private PvP reminded me of way back in the Bnet days when playing a game with friends was just as likely to be against them as with them. Starcraft, for example. I kind of miss that, where now PvP online usually means dealing with strangers who quickly dehumanise each other. Some find that fun. I don't. Oh well. Ancient history now.

Legacy of Kain x Valheim works for me. :)

Planetside 2. From 2016 till 2022.

1/4th done with Jedi Fallen Order.
& Played Warhammer Total War II again last week.
May buy III, half a year from now. After they fine tuned.

Other than that nothing really, no new good mmos. Sometimes chess.

However returning to the gym, getting sober, & working on health for IG photos soon. As I just sat gaming for 2 years since Classic WoW began, quit WoW many months ago, tho still been sitting for 2 years. & ready to explore outside.

or at least 1 month of gym progress, less sitting, more yoga, till POE's next season start.

Gearbox TTW Spinoff and Skyrim Anniversary Edition (includes all DLCs,new 64 bit client,new shaders).

Last time i played Slyrim was 8 year ago and i hated and still hate the UI so i installed the only mod to make it more convenient, SkyUI.

Really like the big open world and main quest can be put on the back burner to explore the world and do lots of side quests.

currently beginning ender lilies. and my friends and me are are longingly waiting for darktide.

Heh. I've been missing Skyrim since Steam cocked up my Oldrim a year or more back (I had set my Steam account for no auto-updates; when I discovered I couldn't launch Skyrim when it had been working fine for years with the same old SKSE which still stood, I found that Steam had changed/cancelled my chosen setting). Been playing vanilla SE for kicks, and yes, the UI, along which much else which could've been fixed in all this time, is still TERRIBLE.

It's been fun playing No Finger Lifted, my non-crafting, non-spellcasting Argonian, and I even navigated the College of Winterhold questline without ever casting a single spell (yes, it can be done). It's the Skyrim equivalent to solo self-found, limiting me to drops and lucky purchases from merchants, and it provides a challenge that the classic Polymath build just does not. =^[.]^=

I like using maxed Unrelenting Force shout.
Nothing more hilarious than sending giants or bears flying or pushing humanoid enemies from ledges so they take fall damage.


But: Some Draugr undead can use the same shout as well and make your player character a living ping pong ball, sending him flying as well.

Honorable mention: Sigdis Gauldurson

The "Dragonborn Force" power you can get from the "Gardener of Men" quest in the Dragonborn DLC increases the damage Unrelenting Force can do, and you can even disintegrate some enemies, which I have never failed to do to a defeated General Tullius at the end of the Civil War quest.

And, yeah, Sigdis is a mean SOB. =^[.]^=

Lately I've been busy so at the end of the day just to tune out I get on Minecraft and just work on my small village, it ain't much but it's honest work hehe

I play Global Thermonuclear War.

Recently did some more elden ring. That game sure keeps you occupied for multiple hours if you let it.

Other than that I'm having an unreasonably great time with the "Metal: Hellsinger" Demo. You can think of it as kinda similar to doom, except you're a demon too and it's a rythm game with a BANGER metal soundtrack with some fairly big names doing the singing for the soundtrack.
Trust me, it's a hell of a lot (pun intended) more fun that it sounds by that description.
