I got Max Max on steam for $5 a few years ago. Worth it.

Don't forget the needless implementation of always-online single player games. Even for single/multiplayer games like PoE or anything Diablo, there's literally no technical need to have a connection. It's just fancy DRM for Blizzard and an excuse to milk you more microtransactions for PoE.

And before anyone regurgitates Blizzard's BS about anti-cheat, it's very possible to keep multiplayer characters on the server and single player on your computer and never have them interact or permit single player loot to be sold on their marketplace. Not to mention their regular online check for D2R. Blizzard has ALWAYS used aggressively hostile DRM. If they could virus bomb thieves' computers then they absolutely would.

I'm happy with a 17" laptop, though I'm having to use a usb keyboard. Also playing a game from 2015, Rebel Galaxy. Nothing really stands out, but it's interesting enough for my tastes.

They never took it from me! Animal Well and Dread Delusion are phenomenal experiences just from the last couple of months. Indies are always generating good games, even when AAA is just following trends.

Me, spending hours on Age of Empires 2 and loving it

My favorite games are Euro Truck Simulator and Elite Dangerous (where I fly a space truck).
Just letting the scenery pass by, enjoying a couple surprises on the way, practicing my docking skills, decorating my cockpit and listening to some old school country or reggae is relaxing as hell after work.

Literally me, except I don't really care much about achievements.
