    I assume there is a decent overlap between Lemmy users and gamers. What are we all playing these days?

    I usually have a PS5 multiplayer game going with my old college buddy. Currently it’s Overwatch 2 with some Rocket League sprinkled in.

    On PC I am once again immersed in Rimworld. Love games that can be paused at any time! Also works on both my Windows PC and Linux laptop with no issues.

      I know these are old and obscure choices, but my main games are Railroad Tycoon 3 and Planetary Annihilation: Titans. Occasionally, Civilization IV, Empire Earth, and the original Theme Park.

      I guess I love any game where you can put in a lot of work in the beginning, then just coast the rest of the way to the finish line.

      I am addicted to OpenTTD at the moment! One of those games where I mean to play for 30 minutes, and then look up 5 hours later and realise what I’ve just done. Thankfully, it’s fun enough that I don’t even feel guilty about it!

      Rimworld is a game I feel like I should really like, but I didn’t get into it on my first attempt and haven’t revisited.

      I’ve got a baulders gate 3 game going and Zelda totk but haven’t finished either. I’m looking forward to Dungeons 4, which comes out in a week or two. I immensely enjoyed Dungeons 2 and 3.

      I’m not much of a gamer, but I did really enjoy Rimworld when I played it back in the day.

        I tell my wife that it’s essentially the Sims (which she loves) but with war crimes and cannibalism…

          Lol, that’s probably why I liked it. The Sims was the only game I really played for any length of time growing up!

      I fired up Dad Quest today and it’s hilarious.

      My favorite games are the Ys series and EU4, but I like a variety from puzzles (playing Manifold Garden) to action games (also love Yakuza series). I just don’t like horror much, though I’ll play a game or two in October (currently playing Alan Wake).
