What game are you currently playing?

When Death Stranding originally released in 2019, I platinumed it on the PS4. And just now, I platinumed the PS5 port of the Director's Cut on the Pro (took about ~200 hours). It's an awe-inspiring game experience with amazing presentation, uniquely addictive gameplay, absolutely stunning graphics, and a story with many unraveling plot twists. Can the gameplay be boring/tedious at times? Sure, but listening to podcasts/music/Youtube while traversing the absolutely-gorgeous landscapes made those situations relaxing and rather enjoyable. Also, the game's ending cutscene is, by far, the most emotional I felt in any game I played (as a full-grown man, I literally had a few tears running down my cheek).

The biggest release of 2025 (the sequel) will be coming out in a few days. So, to say that I'm highly anticipating its release would be a massive understatement. I've been on a complete media blackout (not even having viewed a single screenshot), as I feel that's the best way to initially experience any new game (or movie). I've never been a Metal Gear Series / Kojima fan, but, for some reason, the meticulously-detailed, open-world, sci-fi horror aspects of this series clicked with me.

Lunar: Silver Star Story
This is my first time playing. I couldn't get enough of JRPGS back in the day, but this one completely passed me by. I adore the anime cutscenes, which is good, because there seem to be quite a lot of them. The characters are all likeable so far, the combat is great, and the music is beautiful. Looking forward to experiencing more of the story.

Elden Ring: Nightreign
Played a couple of hours, all solo. Managed to get to that first main boss and got it to around 60%. Good fun.
