Currently playing Heroes of the Storm again. Have been playing on/off since Beta. I enjoy it because they use Blizzard IP characters from other games I enjoy. Other than that just waiting for a decent MMO to drop.

Opus Magnum. Instead of Steam, buying through Humble Bundle will give you a Steam key and DRM-free copies for Windows, Mac, and Linux.

Absolutely brilliant free-form puzzler for the builders, programmers, and engineering types.

I waited to buy Fallout 76 to hear the reviews. This seems to have been a sound decision. Disappointing, though, because I really love the Fallout and Elder Scrolls series, and I'm not sure we'll get another really great game out of either of them.

On the other hand, still enjoying 7 Days to Die, with Northgard as a more casual favorite.

Was disappointed in Fallout 76. It’s just not that enjoyable.

I’ve been playing the Red Dead Online Beta. Been pretty fun so far.

See the RDR2 thread for more in-depth reviews (from many BPers). Strong game and one of the best characters in a long time.

Been enjoying BF V. It's a welcome step in the right direction and the closest they've come to true teamwork based action since bc2 (which they refuse to remake, still the Pinnacle of BF games).

Having fun with Android cactus, a recent free games with gold entry. Ign summed it up well

An intense twin-stick shooter that's a blast for beginners but offers up a serious end game for players after a challenge.

It's a 3d human version of the old spaceship shoot em up side scrollers. Check if it's still available, sometimes the previous GWG entry is still available during the next half month.

Now that it’s on Xbox, I can’t stop playing DayZ. I watched a lot of content when it was exclusive to PC, and always wanted to play it. So glad to have gotten the opportunity. It still needs some work, but man is it so fun.

For those that don’t know what DayZ is, it’s essentially your prototypical survival game (has 1st person and 3rd person viewpoints), but instead of Dinosaurs like on Ark, or the toxicity like on Rust, your main NPC enemies are zombies and random packs of wolves. Each server has 60 real player max. The human interaction aspect of the game (the VOIP is what makes the game) is so fun. You never know if someone will pull a gun or actually come up and talk to you. They have base building and you can build a car to get across the map (which is fucking massive for the record). I’ve managed to get two bases built on two separate servers (gotta protect that loot!).

Anyways, if you enjoy survival games, DayZ doesn’t disappoint.
