I dabble in a mix of Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 (my favorite), Fallout 4, Skyrim, Dynasty Warriors (hack and slash), Halo franchise, and a little Madden here and there. All on Xbox One. And Skyrim and Fallout 4 can have mods on Xbox One. Makes it more fun and interesting.

I'm one of the proud few Stadians. Love that platform! I still fire up the PS4 for some Path of Exlie, but mostly play on Stadia.

Currently playing: Cyberpunk 2077, Judgment, Doom, Madden, Grime, and Baulder's Gate III.

I play XBOX but recently got into PC gaming and bult a computer a couple years ago. A friend has been recommending a RPG to me that has been out a couple years that I never played so I am giving it a go. Divinity:Original Sin 2. Really good so far. Other than that I've been playing FTL and get a few rounds of Fortnite on the XBOX every now and then with friends(no I am not a pre-teen)

I haven't owned a console since my PS2 and don't know if I will buy another - it's a rabbit hole of free time for me and I don't get the same stoke I used to. 

However, if anyone games on their phones amor tablets and digs on 7 v 7 multiplayer shooters, download World of Tanks Blitz and hit me up - that's my one gaming vice and has been since I first played it last year.

Try the Total War games. Rome even got remastered recently and most have an active modding community (easy with Medieval 2 and Rome).

YES!! Another fellow Total War fan! I've been playing Total War games since the first Rome back in 2004. I'm still eagerly awaiting Empire Total War 2, I love the the gunpowder age and wish they would make a sequel series to Empire.

I've been playing Elden Ring and getting my ass handed to me, so I can only play about an hour or two before I get frustrated and move on to something else. On my PC I've been playing Hell Let Loose which is a more realistic WWII FPS game that relies heavily on team work and communication. I recently finished up God of War (2018) and it was one of the best games I've ever played.

I messed around with a Total war game years ago. THink I tried a Game of Thrones mod. May have to give it another go.

 

Another game I am enjoying is Crusader Kings 3. Kinda overwhelming strategy game but so much fun. I am waiting for the game of thrones mod to come out for it as well.

Been stuck on Level 14 since 1982.  I'll catch up with you youngsters after my inevitable victory.

Medieval 2 Total War with Stainless Steel 6.4 mod. More regions, factions, historically accurate, and a lot more fun in general.

There's also some downright crazy mods, like one that combines Rome, Orcs, Vikings, Samurai, Knights, and a lot more. Gun powder mixed with minotaurs and mammoths running around make for very interesting battles.

I don't dare pick up CK3. Way too many hours put into CK2 years ago.

It's very cool... If you know ck2 I think it's a bit easier to learn than 2. A new dlc brought court life into it... You have a 3d court where you hear petitioners etc. Pretty great. 

I had my first playthrough learning the game where I was a urishtking trying to unite the island. But then somehow had the best warscore during a crusade(must have been a glitch my small army went and ran around and got destroyed), so my chosen family member took over Jerusalem. And I chose to play as them...... I created the Irish catholic Jerusalem empire That stretched from Africa to India to Ukraine. Was a lot of fun.

Alright old folks. Games have picked up lately. I never used to play them out of a waste of time but I just finished up the last of us and far cry 5. In my old age, give me a controller and console, and I'm good. Those games are addictive.

I never cared for the combat mechanics so conquest or a high game wasn't why I liked to play it. I liked the scheming, marrying up and marrying off, and all the shenanigans that follow. "I need to kill my wife because she killed my mother and wants to kill my lame first born son so our kids can inherit, but really I just want to get her out of the way so I can marry this beautiful genius only daughter of a weak ruler to plant a new kid that will inherit everything and...goddamnit. She killed me and now I have to play as the dolt first born." That's the beauty of the game for me.
