    I’ve been playing Victoria 3 and a bit of Oxygen Not Included. I mostly play strategy and city builders these days. But I still have Zelda in my backlog (I’m about half done), as well as Assassin’s Creed: Mirage.

    I guess my most recently completed game would be Dave the Diver, as most of what I play are infinite time sinks. It’s a fun game, and I loved the cast of characters. It was about the right length I think, and the game ended right when I was starting to get a little bored of it. I might pick it up again when the DLC is released though.

        That is Breathedge.

        Oxygen Not Included is the Klei joint, the folks who did Don’t Starve. It’s very much about engineering solutions to problems. Honestly heat is the bigger issue than Oxygen.

          Yeah, when I started playing, many hundreds of hours ago, I thought oxygen was going to be the focus of the game. Then I started to lose bases to the creeping heat death… Then material shortages… Now it’s basically a materials science sandbox, where I transfer heat around to do useful things. It’s a really unique game.
