    I’m currently playing Destiny 2. According to wastedondestiny.com, I’ve now played the game for over 2000 hours since I picked the game back up 2 years ago on PS5.

    I play practically everyday, and a few times a week or a few times a month, I play together with my long-distance significant other/psuedo-girlfriend.

    I keep meaning to get back to Horizon: Forbidden West and do a New Game Plus/Ultra Hard run after I farm for more resources, but haven’t really found the time.

    Once in a blue moon, I freeroam and kick the shit out of bad guys by playing Gotham Knights. I platinumed the game and I have Level 60 gear for all 4 of my characters after farming Heroic Assault, and now I just play casually from time to time.

    I plan on re-playing the Mass Effect trilogy for like the dozenth-or so time, but my Xbox Series X version of the Legendary Edition hasn’t been played in months.

    I’m cautiously excited for Atomic Heart releasing next week. I pre-ordered the digital Premium Edition and I’m hoping it won’t be neoliberal garbage, since the devs seem to have some sympathies for the Soviet Union and they somewhat support Russia’s special military operation against the Ukranazis. But even if the game is capitalist nonsense, it still looks fun to play at least.

    Also my collector’s edition of the Lightfall expansion for Destiny 2 shipped out a day ago, and I’m excited for that.

    I have the Dark Souls trilogy on my PS5 to eventually play through, but not anytime soon. I barely played Dark Souls 1 on my PS5 for half an hour almost a year ago I think, but haven’t touched it since.

    I also bought Marvel’s Spider-Man and Miles Morales on PC during Christmas (even though I already platinumed both games on PS5) for the extensive modding community, but downloading mods for the two games is a hassle.

      Do they? Is this from their interviews or something?

        The official discord channel for the game has alot of Soviet iconography and moderation style, it has people from all over the world, especially Russia and Eastern Europe in it, and one of the devs on Twitter supposedly liked or said something about supporting Russia’s SMO. And the official Twitter account reportedly blocked someone when they said they were a Ukranian “survivor” and asked why they haven’t denounced “Putin’s war on Ukraine”.
