I love that game.

Started a replay of Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. A combination of factors outside the control of the developers really led to the game being unfairly maligned, in my opinion. Beautiful game, if not as complete as Human Revolution or as deep thematically/philosophically as the original game.

That gives me some pangs of nostalgia.

The wonderful North Africa missions withe the British SAS. That awesome soundtrack, especially the King Tiger mission.

That goddamn sniper mission I must have died about 50 times on.

Total War: Warhammer 2 is just about here! I'm so hyped!

Seriously, I dumped...an absolutely ridiculous number of hours into the first one. Can't wait to command dinosaurs riding other, larger dinosaurs!

I'm playing The Walking Dead season 1. Pretty good game, albeit more of an "interactive story" for the most part. The show itself wasn't/isn't really my thing, but I think the type of moral dilemmas that come with zombies/apocalyptic scenarios really benefit from the video game format. You might not change the endgame, but you're the one who has to pull the trigger on some of these tough questions.

Just don't touch season 2 or 3, they had different writing teams and it's really apparent that they didn't know what they were doing.

I fell into a time hole last night playing Divinity: Original Sin 2, suddenly it was 3am and I had to sleep so I think I can say I found it engaging. I expect that will be my game for a while, but I was playing Endless Space 2 last week which is a good space 4x.

I keep fighting my need for Paradox games, as I have writing projects I want to focus on, but HOI4 keeps sucking me back in. It doesn't help that the Road to '56 mod has new national focus trees that let you do fun things like remove the Nazis in favor of an Imperial restoration, which made a German playthrough more intriguing to me.
