How exciting.

Game #9 | Atomfall | 2025-05-16 I really enjoyed this one! Very British, sorta Fallout-ish survival game with a gorgeous world. Combat was a little meh and I wish the skills were more impactful, but I'm glad I kept this one on the list. Rating: 8/10

Even in Arcadia by Sleep Token.

DLC #8 | DOOM: Eternal — The Ancient Gods: Part Two | 2025-05-10 Part Two was a big improvement over Part One for me. I was still happy to finally be done with this game, though (I think it was just too long for my liking). Didn't bother going back to get the last 1% I missed. Rating: 8/10

DLC #7 | DOOM: Eternal — The Ancient Gods: Part One | 2025-05-06 This expansion was okay. I liked it less than the main game, which I liked less than DOOM (2016). Maybe it's because I had my fill with the main campaign, but I mostly just wanted to be done with this. Rating: 7/10

I believe 27W is the minimum.

The Outer Wilds.

I decided to watch my favorite YouTuber play the game and I'm even more terrified. I'm getting Hades vibes. This game will become my entire personality. I will dream about it.

I didn't know you did reaction videos like this. 👀 Definitely checking this out later. This song has been on repeat since the minute it dropped for me.

Game #8 | DOOM: Eternal | 2025-04-27 DOOM (2016) made me angry less often, but I still had a lot of fun with this. The gameplay is engaging and the world design/soundscape is perfectly dramatic. Almost ready for The Dark Ages, just have to hit the DLC! Rating: 8/10

To Call of Duty? Maybe. BO6 stayed in my rotation longer than most, but I always get bored/frustrated/exhausted eventually. Live service multiplayer games just aren't my jam.

Game #7 | South of Midnight | 2025-04-21 I adored this game's writing, characters (especially Hazel), voice acting, and art style. It's a wonderfully human tale exploring a slice of history not shown enough in media. The gameplay wasn't quite as amazing, but I still had a lot of fun. Rating: 8/10

I'll take your advice! Hopefully I find time before Even in Arcadia consumes the rest of 2025 for me.

That's what I'll do, then! Thank you.

I know Space Marine 2 was well received. Does the first hold up and is it important to the universe? That might be my jumping off point.

I appreciate the narrowing questions. 😅 Video games would be the easier entryway for me, probably.
