I didn’t pick up new games this year that I can think of despite how good of a year it’s apparently been for new releases. I almost exclusively play multiplayer games with lots of replay value, so I don’t mind going a few years without a new game. I’ve mostly played a lot of Helldivers 2, Phasmophobia, Risk of Rain 2, Terraria, and Tabletop Simulator.

Risk of Rain 2 in particular has been a lot of fun recently. It got a new DLC about a month ago, so I guess I did technically get something new. It’s easily the best DLC for the game yet, and the new boss fights are a massive step up in quality compared to any others in the game.

The only singleplayer game I’ve been playing a bit of is Minecraft. I picked up GregTech: New Horizons, a minecraft modpack, a bit earlier this year just to see how far in it I could get before getting bored. GT:NH apparently has a ridiculous average completion time of 2,500 hours of active gameplay for experienced solo players, and I have quite literally never touched a tech mod in my life, so I have no delusions about ever actually finishing it. But it’s been fun so far.
