It's sharing time today, as sharing is caring right? What have you been playing recently, and what do you think?
I've been playing a lot of Rocket League. I know, shocking right. The game is by far my favourite at the moment and playing it online with a few people from the community is insanely fun.
I also started Firewatch during the last two livestreams, and it's actually pretty good. The banter between the characters is quite natural and amusing. I am looking forward to continuing that on Friday for the next stream.

Quoting: FireStarWFinally finished playing through Saints Row 2 recently after starting it months ago, although its a pretty crappy port (and I mean the original Windows port and not the linux wrapper) I found it more fun than SR4, put way more hours into it.
I had a blast with it as well. It's a shame that the port is so bad, but the game is good enough to stick with it.

EU4, I didn't play the last DLC at all, so that plus "Rights of Man" is a good bit different from last time I played, having a blast.
AI personalities make it much more unique experience. Fantastic game, if i had to have just one game locked in a room, it would be this one.

Currently playing The Swapper on my Arch system. It's the second Linux game i have played. The first was Outlast which I finished last week. I cannot believe how far Linux has come over the last couple years on the gaming front. I was surprised just how well Outlast played and Linux is now my preferred system for playing games. I cannot wait for the day when all games run on Linux and I can finally uninstall Windows.

I've been playing a lot of Factorio and The talos principle lately. I love both of them, Factorio is the game I always come back to

I loved The Swapper but I've stopped playing it because I was stuck somewhere and could not pass a level, even with a walkthrough :-(

Hi,
Sharing my play list. Most of my games, I'm now playing at 4K (3840x2160) resolution on a 60Hz display-port 40 inch monitor. A recent upgrade from GTX 960 to GTX 1070 has allowed practically everything I play to run great at 4K.
FTL (Faster Than Light) - I'm regularly returning to this, playing a short session, save/quitting, returning to the same point in the game, and continuing. Trying to accomplish the various achievements to unlock all the ships. Really love this style of real-time strategy WITH pause (to send commands during the pause phase). Over 50 hours of play.
Serious Sam 3: BFE - Quite recently I completed the main campaign (under Hard setting). I've just started playing the DLC - Jewel of the Nile - on Serious setting. Love this style of 3D shooter. Will probably finish SS3 off, before moving onto other 3D shooters. 57 hours of play so far.
Dying Light: The Following - Really blown away by this game. I love the graphics, the parkour, the combat, the progression, the main story, the side quests, the crafting. I like going in for proper play AND going in just to mess around. Get quite a thrill out of how (during the main quest) it puts you into difficult situations. Find the zombie combat very realistic. Really liked working out for myself how to accomplish things, e.g. using skills and terrain to my advantage. I've completed the main campaign. Haven't started "The Following" DLC yet - but expecting to do that quite soon. About 120 hours play so far. Smitten :)
Rocket League - I don't usually play much Player(s) vs Player(s) games. Rocket League is somewhat of an exception to that rule. It plays really well. Thumbs up for detecting and assigning controls to my Xbox 360 gamepads connected to Debian Linux with zero tweaking from me. Split screen working nice. Game responds very well. Really fun game. Not quite what I usually play, but worth blowing an hour here and there. So far played about 10 hours.
Sky Force: Anniversary Edition - Really love this scrolling old-skool arcade shooter. Completed all the 9 levels (eventually). However, haven't completed them all on Insane setting (only the first few). Pretty good replay value. Once you complete a level on "Regular setting" and by complete, I mean you have to play it perfectly (zero hits on you, kill all enemies, etc) then you get the next setting ( "Hard" ) and you have harder baddies to face. Do it on "Hard" and then you unlock "Insane". If you like Arcade Shooters then this is a must-have! Game-play is perfect. I've put 33 hours into it so far.
Fortix 2 - a casual strategy game. Good fun. Played a few hours so far. Based on Qix old skool game but with numerous little additions, e.g. terrain, items, etc.
I could go on ;) But at least you've got my main candidates. Maybe I'll add more in another month or two.

Been playing 'Bravada', an oldie and was on my to-play list for such a long time, finally got into it. It's rather fun and kind of special.
