I find myself just returning to games I enjoy these days. Mainly immersive sims but the trouble is, there aren't that many of them. I struggle with 3rd person games, what with the character taking up half the screen and being able to see around corners kind of reduces the jeopardy quite a bit. Seems as though this is the most prominent genre right now. Are you a multi-genre type of person, or stuck in their ways?
Definitely multi genre but have ones I'm always happy to go back to. Currently playing Shogun Showdown a bunch which I only got earlier this year I think, being a turn based rogue like/lite(?), similar to Into The Breach in it being part puzzle (which I played a while back but didn't really get into). Then earlier this year started a new game of Anno 1800 with my brother which has been great, need to go back to BG3 with my wife once we move house. Partway through KCD1 and enjoying it despite never getting into Oblivian/Skyrim or plenty of other first person RPGs. And just got both Star Wars Outlwas and Ghost of Tsushima which I'm looking forward to, so a bit of a mix! (Also will probably replay some/all of Shadow Tactics/Desperados at some point again)
Not really a multi-genre here, although I keep telling myself that I could try something new. That could be my New Year's resolution, if only I were making any.
I've restarted Baldur's Gate 3 a good 6 or 7 times. I've never finished it but I've made it to act 3 three times. It's an astonishingly good game. I plan to actually get to the end on my current playthrough. I've replayed the Half-Life series numerous times, especially Half-Life 2 which for sure I've played over 20 times start to finish. Other than those two, I haven't replayed anything much, instead I've either played the same series, Battlefield, or I've wasted way too much of my life in the MMOs Guild Wars 2 and Ultima Online.
I bought Cyberpunk in March. It is now November and I'm convincing myself this is my last play through, I've found everything (lol) and no more mods.
Multi genre here - there are some games I go back to and some I never stopped playing. Dishonored gets dusted off once a year, as does Cyberpunk. I have a few tower defense games on steam that get regular outings - Kingdom Rush and Infested Planet, to name a couple. Warhammer 40k chaosgate demon hunters is fairly recent but has had several play throughs, same with Aliens Dark Descent. World of Warships and FTL get played pretty much daily.
I'm up to 948 hours of Ace Combat 7. Or about 5'688 multiplayer matches. I do play other games. But ADHD backlfip jet game is just fun.
Worse. I've been playing the same fetch-quest level in Shadow Warrior 2 over and over. The game pairs two maps together for each quest, and this one has the the one map in the game that is entirely climbable up to the atmosphere ceiling. That makes it possible to jump to the other map and land on top of it's ceiling, and play walking at treetop level like an attack helicopter. -Perfect for a quick, casual game.
