Video Games

Currently playing...

I'm never just playing one game. And I almost never finish any of them. But, right now, I'm periodically enjoying Disco Elysium, The Witcher 3, and Baldur's Gate 3.

Scorn

This game is absolutely not for everyone. The puzzles were good. The combat not so much. Still liked it, though.

Started sometime in 2022 and finished in June of 2023. I recommend it.

MINERVA: Metastasis

A great unofficial addition to Half-Life.

Played in June of 2023. I recommend it.

Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy

Not sure why I waited so long to finally get into this. Great game. Best lightsaber combat ever. The multiplayer is really where the game shines, even today.

Played in June of 2023. I recommend it.

Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast

Jedi Outcast is a pretty good game, even twenty years later. The gunplay is rough and swimming is dumb, but the lightsaber combat and force powers are fun. And I enjoyed the occasional puzzle.

Played in June of 2023. I recommend it.

Tomb Raider (2013)

This is a game like games used to be games.

Played in May of 2023. I recommend it.

Dark Souls

Dark Souls takes advantage of its medium to do things I've never seen in a game before.

Played in the spring of 2023. I highly recommend it.

Control

Compelling story and even better gameplay.

Played in the first few months of 2023. I recommend it.

Celeste

It's a challenging platformer with a heartwarming, if a little weak, story.

Played off and on for most of 2022. I recommend it.
