Got a bit addicted to Stardew Valley recently
I can't get into it.
I have tried several times and it's just not clicking with me.

I enjoyed the older Harvest Moon games, but Stardew just does not have the same feel for me.

I enjoy My time at Portia way more, yet I never hear anyone else ever talk about it.

I've had it on my PC for ages and like you didn't get into it. I started again last week when I couldn't sleep and it kinda clicked.

I'll check out the games you mentioned too. But now I need to see how my strawberries are doing...

God of War (PC) - Really enjoy this.
Assassins' Creed Valhalla (PC) - I'm on the other side of the fence with this as with Odyssey (many people don't like the direction they are going with not being an Assassin game) but I prefer this story telling ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Diablo 3 (always Diablo 3 :D) - Old I know and yet I still play every Season for a month and then I get board.

Ha ha, yes, Diablo 3 - my gaming drug of choice - play every season until I complete my Journey and clear GR100. Sometimes I waste time hunting for Rainbow Goblins in the futile hope of getting either those special wings or the portrait

I finished the AC Valhalla Season Pass and it was great. I've now spent a lot of hours in the game and I look forward to the next expansion.

Now I'm playing:
Dishonored: Death of the Outsider - XBox
Age of Empires IV - PC (though I haven't played PC in a while. Time is limited currently)

My memories of AoE are better than the reality - find myself unable to get into it

Im still busy with Days Gone ... this game is way longer than what I expected it to be, especially if you do some of the side missions also.

Someone here mentioned the game a few weeks ago and I thought I'd give it a go ... really not bad :thumbsup:

It starts off really slow but as you progress it becomes much more fun. I honestly enjoyed it.

Sadly though a part two is not happening.

I also haven't gotten those damned wings probably close to 3000h in and nothing :D. I usually finish season journey get to gr110+ and somewhere in the low 1000s paragon and then I move on to something else. Every season I tell myself I'm going to pick a class and run with it but always make alts after the 800s paragon :D.
I honestly don't care what the haters say Diablo 3 is my go to, I play POE as well but if there is a choice it will always be Diablo even if I just get maybe one months of enjoyment out if it at a time.

Same here really.

I think it's because my original memory is rooted in the first AoE where you progressed throughout the Ages 'organically' without the feeling that you're being 'forced' to move (which is the feeling that the latest AoE leaves me with)

Ag, maybe I just need to give it another shot and jump straight into the campaign.

It's exactly the same for me. I don't like the way the campaign forces you to play through its mini campaigns. I think you convinced me to stop playing it really.

Finished the Witcher 3 and all the expansions. Not the biggest fan of the expansions but finished them so didn't hate it, I really liked the main story of the Original game (even did multiple endings).

Better game than I originally thought but still don't know if I love the combat system which I put to the test playing on the hardest difficulty but after unlocking the spinny skill you kill everything rather easily (other than Detlaff he was crazy).

After the first couple of levels I also switched to the hardest difficulty. I didn't even choose the spinny skill, and it was still very easy.
Dodge attack attack. Rinse repeat.
Detlaff was just difficult to figure out when and how to dodge that attack, and after that was also easy.

The Witcher 3 is good because of the story and in spite of the combat. I actually found the expansions better than the base game.

Edit: Which is why I was never on board the Cyberpunk hype train. Good fps RPGs are difficult to do. I think the original Deus Ex is probably the only one that got it right. Haven't played Cyberpunk yet, so don't know how well they did.
