    It’s not super old but I patiently waited for a sale on the Repentence DLC for The Binding of Isaac. Besides the new content it’s also a sort of v2.5 of the game (if Rebirth/Afterbirth was v2.0) with many quality of life changes. Admittedly some of the changes were a bit startling at first but I quickly got used to them and after a few hours it felt like home again.

    I have about 500 hours in Isaac and this refresher has breathed new life into it so perhaps I am good for another 500.

      Ohh boy, I don’t know how much you read beforhand, but the new characters are the best content of the game. They range from infuriatingly hard to trivial, but all of them have a fresh spin in the gameplay and existing mechanics. You are in for a treat my friend.

    The Spell Brigade. It’s unfortunately early access, but it’s an up-to-4 player co-op Survivors-type game. I love Vampire Survivors so of course I wanna play co-op. I’ve been having a bunch of fun with it, both with friends and without.

    I started playing baldur’s gate 1 for the first time. I got it on sale years ago and never played more than an hour. It’s been fun!

    There’s also 2 VR games i was highly anticipating that came out. Behemoth wich is like a shadow of the collossus kind of game and trombone champ unflattened wich is just trombone champ but in VR and they are both very good!

    Colin McRae: Dirt 2

    I really wanted to play something arcade (and without all the bullshit of cosmetics and jackpot spins etc that modern games have) etc so I downloaded a copy of Dirt 2 and it’s been great fun. It handles really well and actually looks good when upscaled.

    I did have to install Games for Windows Live though 😔

    Super Robot Wars V! I’m having a blast with the silly crossover story finding excuses to throw dozens of mecha from different shows at me all at once. Last night I played a mission where I had 8 Gundams in the field from 4 different shows at once! And we were fighting dragons from Cross Ange.

    I’ve been playing Pillars of Eternity after giving up on Pathfinder King Maker in frustration. It’s been very cool! A lot of lore to learn though and I feel like it really needs my full attention to get the most out of it.

    I picked up Balders Gate 3 on a recent sale to see what all the hubbub was about. I nearly gave up on it after about the first 10 hours but soon after that it finally clicked for me and I’ve been having a blast. I think I’m only about 30 hours in right now and I hear it’s easily 100+ hours so hopefully the ride remains this fun for the duration.

    Playing the main character as a high elf bard. Definitely the weakest in the group at combat but it’s nice passing every persuasion check.
