MODERATORS
Finished Metaphor: Refantazio right before the end of the year. Fantastic game which is shockingly relevant to so much going on at the moment around the world.
Like the last 7 years past, DOTA 2
Brought my steamdeck to our new years party and managed to snag 2 others to play brotato in multiplayer for a bit. I thought it would be more popular to play some games since that is how we all know each other. Otherwise it would have been Factorio: space age.
Commandos: Beyond the call of duty.
Old enough to be good (no dark patterns or other bullshit), new enough to be playable (the first Commandos is just too pixelated, you need hyper vision to play it).
What a game.
Core Keeper, I've known about it for a while but never really looked into it, tried it out and it's much better than I thought it'd be! Basically Terraria with a top down view, really fun.
I think it was either Mouthwashing, which I definitively finished that day (loved it), or Animal Well, which I bought that day and played a lot since.
Foxhole. Looks like a silly little indie game, but boy there are huge scale mechanics and coop required. I'm kinda fascinated and want to play even more, not sure if work and life actually allows me to play a lot though.
Echoes of wisdom
As much as I'd have liked it to be some kind of active or skill based game, it was either going to be webfishing or revolution idle.
I recently picked up secrets of grindea, but after having binged it for a few days, I'm grinded out. I need to earn so much gold if I want to collect all the things and it feels like my combat power has hit a wall. There are a few non-grind things I could tackle, but I'll just wait a bit and let burnout go away.
A Short Hike
Brotato
Final Fantasy XIV
Shapez. I've had it in my library for the longest time and decided to try it out. Addictive puzzler but a bit too much like my real job.
Samurai Zero. I haven't attempted speed runs, but I just finished the game.
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3
WH40K: Chaos Gate
TOTK
Helldivers 2
For liber-tea!!!
Return to Moria for me. I picked it up for free from Epic recently and it's all I've played since. Going solo and I just made it to the Pilgrim Road waypoint.
I've been playing a LOT of arma 3 rpg's. So fun trying to smuggle drugs across the map before the police figure out what's going on.
Next year I'll probably move over to a larger playbase game with similar gameplay loop, maybe EVE online
Infinity Nikki! It's probably my new favourite dress up game (dethroning FFXIV)
idle dice 2
Bought, played and refunded Foxhole
Universe sandbox according to Steam
Might have been captain toad on my iPhone though
World of Warcraft
It's also the first game I played in 2025. I just left it running.

A Traveller character creation session.
Heavily modded Risk of Rain 2, because somehow itβs still a delightful gem
Escape from Tarkov with the homies, first game of 2025 was WoW
No Man's Sky in VR, played through midnight to usher in the year.
Wii Sports. It's a yearly tradition on new years for me
Freestyle Gunz. We had a lot of fun.
Necrosmith
F1 Manager 2024
I like to play it while watching a movie on another screen.
Emberward, a tower defense where you build the walls out of Tetris blocks.
Kingdom: Two Crowns, the Call of Olympus DLC. Also the first game of 2025 we played, we only took a small break at midnight.
NFS Unbound⦠Not great but I was just trying to finish it lol
