I'm replaying the Mass Effect Trilogy as it's been about 10 years since I last did. Still working my way through the ME1 portion at the moment and it shows its age with pop up text boxes instead of showing some quest outcomes & repeated planet instillations, but it is about to be a 20 year old game (!). It is still absolutely amazing the way they managed to create such a vivid, deep, and fleshed out world & set of characters first time though. The seems in the dialogue system are clunky by today's standards but a good amount of the writing remains amazing for the time & better than a lot of what you get today. The music and art direction still rocks too.
When I haven't had time to sit down and sink a lot of time into a game I've been playing Into The Breach. I really like FTL & still boot it up now and then, but when I bought Into The Breach years ago I just couldn't get into it. For whatever reason though, this time it's really starting to click for me (albeit on Easy for now) especially as I start to discover more of what you can do with movement/attack cancelling etc rather than always trying to clear the board like in other strategy games I play.
