I need to finally get around to playing Clear Sky and Call of Pripyat now that Stalker 2 has been announced.
Clear Sky is such a slog though I'm finding it really difficult to keep going in that game, I like that artifacts are much rarer and you have to find them with your detector, but the faction wars minigame is so tacked on and pointless it gets in the way of my enjoyment of the game. I just want to replay Shadow of Chernobyl again, it's so perfect. :feels:

Anyway enough of that rant, if you're choosing between One Piece Pirate Warriors 3 and Hyrule Warriors Definitive Edition, I'd say unless you're a massive One Piece fanboy go for Hyrule Warriors it's just a better experience overall.

I mean they're both Warriors games so they both have a lot of replayability. (Though I seriously have to wonder why Vivi and Mr. 2 Bon Clay aren't playable in One Piece Pirate Warriors 3)

i 'm not a big one peice fan (i never seen it (only like bit and peice of the gay ass 4kids version), but got a jist of what it is and what's it's about) but i'll play the spin off warriors series because i am fan of the warrior/musou series, and about the neptune, i played the spin off game were it's more like DW, and felt like that style would work with that game series than the rpg,
 
Pillars of Eternity Deadfire. It's actually not that good. Needs like a year of patching. Oh well, more fool me for backing an Obsidian game. Though the first Pillars was better than this on release.
 
Fallout: New Vegas ... again

I'm on an Assassin's Creed binge right now.
I've played though Assassin's Creed 2, Brotherhood and Revelations; now I'm playing AC3. It's a pretty good game, but quite buggy. Unfortunately, Ubisoft abandoned its support without fixing it completely.
Hunting in this game is very fun, though - beats waiting 20 minutes to get some cash like in AC2.
 
I'm replaying Valkyrie Profile 2. Good Lord have I forgotten how beautiful this game is. :heart-full:

TFW no Valkyrie Profile 3 (:_(
 
Frostpunk. Quite enjoying it. It's a steampunk building game in which you have to build your city round a coal generator, keeping everyone warm, housed, fed, motivated, and similar. Reminds me of Transarctica (if you remember that) in its aesthetic.

(Speaking of Transarctica, now there was a game that was all kinds of crazy awesome in its concept but fell apart in the execution. In it, you were RAILWAY PIRATES. No, seriously. You captained an armoured steam train in the ice age and you had to trade goods, buy wagons, fend off attacks from wolves and degenerate mole people, hunt woolly mammoths, and take on other trains by literally pulling alongside them and broadsiding them with cannon and machine gun or sending your guys to board. Cool idea, hampered by a demented interface and lackluster execution which saw you spending an inordinate amount of time shovelling coal.)
 
I recently bought The Saboteur for the XBox 360 from a thrift store since I noticed that several people mentioned it in the "Dead video game series/franchises you refuse to let go" thread as a game worthy of a sequel.

I had been playing Grand Theft Auto V until I finished it a month or so ago and the faces in The Saboteur look a little archaic compared to the 3D scanned faces from GTA V but otherwise it's been pretty fun so far, though I am a little disappointed that "The Midnight Show" bonus content no longer seems to be downloadable.

I almost got Red Dead Redemption a couple of weeks ago at the same thrift store and only passed because the DVD was too scratched.
 
Marvel Ultimate Alliance, I have fond memories of the Xbox port and one of them was where I was facing against Galactus, farming SHIELD tokens(the game's currency) from the minions he summons in the fight's last area, just to prep my squad for the endgame.

My Squad:

Blade
The Thing
Deadpool
Iron Man
 
I picked up Strange Journey Redux today. SJ has a great, foreboding atmosphere and so many games are lacking in that nowadays.
 
Currently playing through the latest God of War. I'm actually enjoying it quite a lot; no, it's not perfect, but it's still a lot of fun and I'm enjoying learning all the little bits of lore.

I'm gonna eventually make my way to the HD GTA games.

I finished all 3 of the 3D GTA games.

GTA III is a very important game that helped provide the layout to free roaming games, but the game itself did not age well. The radio stations are very bad to listen to, and the city itself is boring.

GTA Vice City is an improvement to III. The voice cast for them is great and having Ray Liotta voice act Tommy is awesome, that and the music never gets old, and the city feels alive. The part that sucks about the game is buying and completing 6 assets to unlock the final mission for the game and if you're one of the players that constantly buys armor and weapons, you're shit out of luck because most of the assets costs about 20k up to 100k to unlock which will take you forever to do. If you plan on replaying Vice City, save up until you get to the asset missions and spend the money first on the Miami Club.

I liked San Andreas but the game itself lasted way too long, and after you finish all the missions leading up to Las Venturas the game wears out its welcome and you get to that feeling that you just want to finish the fucking game. And similar to Vice City in order to unlock the final mission, you have to fight all the gangs in Los Santos to reclaim back territory for the Groove all the while fighting in a recreation of the LA Riots. Ummm, the soundtrack is alright, I liked Vice City more because I enjoy 80s music a whole lot more than the 90s but other than that both games are equally good imo.

SMT games in general have really good atmosphere.

Nocturne in particular has this rather creepy feeling as, for the most part, a lot of buildings and structures remain intact, but no humans (besides the plot important ones) remain. Only demons and ghosts.
 
Been playing some rhythm games called Frederic Resurrection. All of it based on a pianist named Frederic Chopin. Also tried my hand at a city builder/RTS game from my childhood called The Nations Gold. I want to enjoy it but so far I get a flickering mouse every time I play the game. May as well wait a while until GOG can get some fix for it.
 
Im doing my yearly 100 run of the yakuza games, currently finishing up yakuza 4
