Rocksmith.... I've decided to TRY and learn how to play something recognizable on my guitar that's been in storage for a decade... After a few days I can play 2 strings. Sometimes.
Playing Valheim every weekday at 10pm GMT - twitch.tv/kaltern

I'm currently playing Enderal. I am enjoying it, but I don't remember Skyrim being so technically bad
2018 has been a bad year for me when it comes to PC gaming, 2019 seems to continue that. I need a proper high budget RPG, I'm starting to lose my mojo
Man what a game. Started playing it in July... now I'm at 500+ hours played, and still look forward to getting home from work to play it for 1-2 hours. Constant stream of updates, fluid, smooth, swift action-looter-shooter gameplay with PC gaming at heart. Destiny 2, Anthem or The Division feel so incredibly slow and boring compared to it, mostly because they cater to console first.
I couldn't stand playing the same game again and again. I think the longest time I ever played a game was Fallout New Vegas at around 230hrs. I can count those I played for more than 100hrs on two hands.
PoE1 again. With a barbarian again. @ act IV again. Just got the season pass for PoE2. As soon as I finish this one.
Edit: Ok after 50 hours of PoE1 I advanced to its sequel and I must say.. it is not as interesting for some reason. Or am I bored. Need a rest from it I think. What else is there ? Maybe Tyranny.
Kotor 2 with TSLRCM 1.8.5. WITH M4-78. And oooh, what a mistake it was to use the version with M4-78. It's sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo tedious. I could've done better writing in 10 minutes as well as design. Running back, forth, looking for this droid, looking for that and so on. Almost finished with that damn planet. Utter crap that fan-level. And uninstalling it won't work afaik, save games won't work without it.
Yes, last time I played KOTOR 2 was with TSLRCM and a couple of aesthetic mods, like better fire effects, better lightsaber colors/effects and such. People in the M4 planet comments were not positive
Although I'll probably drop one of those card games...not sure which yet. It feels like work to keep up with set releases in Magic, otherwise gotta pay up. Gwent is more F2P friendly.
Another for Witcher 3. Probably the fifth attempt to play through without something halting my progression and taking my attention away. Going to have to use a control pad. Combat feels horrible with mouse and keyboard.

Its crazy that such a popular game is like this. I have the exact same problem and had it wirth Skyrim too although when it bit i played it daily for months.

la-mulana - started a replay, now without guides.It's been years so i think i forgot most puzzles, maybe.
endless legend 2 - playing the communty challenge or something like that.
The witness - been playing a bit for a few weeks, but myprogress isvery slow as i i'm not thaat much engaged, might be dropped or keep in the backburner
waiting for anno 1800 and yuppie psycho, and may start playing Prey, only played the demo befpre
Working on the backlog now, getting some progress although a few titles had to be dropped because development was going nowhere or the game was broken.
Slowly going through Koei Tecmo's games lineup so that's probably going to be Nioh as the next one up, seen the base game and some of the fun/broken builds possible but Nioh mode is probably not something I'll attempt but the DLC will be a entirely new experience if I ever get to them hah.
Watched a playthrough of Dying Light and tried getting into Dead Island, Definitive has some nice updates but the gameplay and other mechanics are quite dated so probably not going to complete it though it will be fun to see how the sequel to Dying Light turns out.
So yeah 7 Days to Die was dropped since 7+ years soon and still in alpha and the development is still changing out and outright breaking things with little to show, Planet Explorers "accidentally" (Backups? No?) deleted the server code to the game failed to undelete it and made the game F2P but it was failure way earlier having been rushed through early access way before it could be considered complete.
Hollow Knight was finally wrapped up although I didn't do the arena challenge, fun game with a odd map system but it works, looking forward to seeing the sequel.
Atelier well it's more from Koei and GUST and the later titles go all in on fan-service although since they're doing 3 - 4 games per year or more of course they're going to be a bit rough and rely on alternative ways to sell ha ha. Not outright terrible but the early games seem far more fun than these latest entries.
RAGE 2 had fun shooting and everything else was kinda meh to suck and then for Just Cause 4 the developers (Also Avalanche but the NY studio.) are still trying to salvage it but I don't think that's going to work.
Assassin's Creed Odyssey is mostly just awaiting the discovery mode and then that's going to be considered done, had it's moments but it dragged on a bit too much and I preferred Origins in many ways even if Odyssey has several improvements of it's own.
Cleared AC3 Remastered too the tale of Where the Fuck is Charlie Lee and well it had some fun cinematic moments but the combo-combat feels clunky though the animation work is amazing but it doesn't really count when you're halfway-in in a combo and getting killed because Connor needs to whack white man with axe tons or it doesn't count, eh when it works and you get it all flowing it's neat otherwise it's kinda like the Arkham games feeling very automated and lack of precise control even if it animates well.
What else? Well a few more months and might be able to clear the bigger installed games from the backlog though other than AC Odyssey and Nioh the big fat Gigabyter games might be starting to clear up.
Final Fantasy 15 was a thing, part of it at least but yeah it just felt incomplete, file size isn't everything as they say, it's how you use it that's important ha ha.
EDIT: Well what else can I say probably not much so yeah.
Charles Lee in Ass Ass Inn's Creed 3 Re-De Mastered.
Grand-master of hide & seek for like 14 years or so barring the occasional sighting but never for long.
And Dying Light Definitive, might not have voodooed the beach but I had do to some things to the post-process and shader effects because the image noise and blur and tinting got annoying.
(Still kinda there though, temporal AA and motion blur in motion - sprinting and stuff and yeah it's a bit noisy and blurry though less than before but not entirely gone.)
All the post-process effects!
(Other than not fixing some game bugs it's not a bad effort though but some of the shader additions are less than fun and not everything is easily disabled even chromatic aberration persists in cutscenes by default.)
EDIT: Well duh JB if it was static blur it'd be depth of fail of the early 2000's when it just blurred the distant LOD travesty of soup textures and 2D planes for anything like trees and stuff.
Bit like this.
