[LectureMaster]

Still trying to finish SH2.

Drama - Cringe - I want to enjoy Silent Hill 2, but it is too fucking scary for me

I have been a pussy, the maximum horror I could ever take was the chalice dungeon in Bloodborne. I dropped Resident Evil 7 as it frightened the shit out of me. I beat RE8, but I had to watch a full walkthrough for house beneviento before I started playing that session. Bought Silent Hill 2 on...

[Danjin44]

I’m mostly going to play MHW Iceborne and hopefully finish up before MHWilds comes out.

 

[Bartski]

Darkest Dungeon 2 Kingdoms and Inhuman Bondage DLC

 

[Loope]

Trying to finish Witcher 3 (LTTP) because i made some changes to my system and i'm playing with all bells and whistles, also have a lack of time problem.

Next in line is Cyberpunk 2077 and Elden Ring.

Just need to stop playing Powerwash Simulator because it's very addictive (i am ashamed of myself but i can't control it)

 

[Dazraell]

I'll be focusing on my backlog

 

[marcincz]

Backlog.
Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars on NDS
The Thaumaturge on PS5
Astro Bot - platinum and winter add-on.
And maybe I'll buy Donkey Kong on NS.

 

[GrayChild]

Mostly backlog stuff, but will be there day 1 for FF VII: Rebirth on PC.

 

[GymWolf]

Kinda of a shit month before the absolute heat of february, nothing interest me on that list.

So backlog for me aswell.

 

[GinSama]

I really want Dynasty warriors game....but I kinda feel a bit let down with the custom mc ... Also don't think the game will be so different..... May wait for some new gameplay and info.

Kinda wish Assetto was on consoles right this month.... ( I mean I think is not coming I only see steam pre orders live)

Other than that I'm I have been focusing on my backlog system by system.

PS5 silent hill 2, Robocop

Xbox indiana Jones, replaying Dragon Age origins, Alan Wake 2

Switch xenoblade chronicles

 

[Cakeboxer]

Super addicted to Starfiled right now. One of the best games i ever played, but i get why it's not for casuals. Game doesn't tell you shit and even for me it's hard to figure things out without YouTube. The size of that game is insane, will be easily >100h. Hope it will release on PS soon to be more apreciated.

 

[JimmyRustler]

Backlog

Currently wrapping up M&L Brotherhood. I‘m a bit upset because of how the end drags on. You basically beat the main boss and are mentally done with it, only to get a new main boss and be sent around the game world again. And now the final dungeon is big as hell. I hate this…

So anyway, so soothe myself I started ASTRO BOT and am loving it so far.

 

[Robb]

Nothing new. Backlog month for me.

 

[DirtInUrEye]

Portal 2 again and first playthrough of Hogwarts as a non Potter fan, but it does look fun.

 

[Hrk69]

I'm very excited to start Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 will be next

 

[Bonfires Down]

The only must play is Rebirth. I will be checking out Freedom Wars and maybe Ender Magnolias at some point too.

Here are some more cool stuffs for this month.

 

[Emerging lbrowsky]

Balatro

Will also try to fit in Rebirth...

 

[Aion002]

I got the true ending of Stellar Blade yesterday, so I will try to speedrun the campaign this weekend to get the other two endings for the plat

Then I will start working towards getting the platinum for Rise of The Ronin.

 

[SJRB]

Stellar Blade and Dread Delusion, mostly.

Tried Withering Waves on PS5 yesterday, not sure about that one. Thought it was quite boring? And the waifus ain’t waifuing compared to Stellar Blade’s Eve.

 

[Roberts]

I never 1000/1000 Indiana Jones and I'm fine with that but my daughter has an Indy obsession because of the game and wants me to play it, so we are coming back to find the rest of Ancient Relics. I guess it will take some time. Going to play Helldivers 2 with friends this weekend and see if I like it enough to stick with it. Other than that I cant wait to play Citizen Sleeper 2 and will most likely check the new Sniper Elite game.

 

[MetalFreak]

Space Marine 2 and Horizon ZD Remastered.

 

[Judge Magister]

Maybe Freedom Wars Remastered. I bought that game together with PSTV back in the day.

 

[Burger King]

I only read and talk about videogames

 

[Punished Miku]

Day one:
Eternal Strands (GP)
Citizen Sleeper 2 (GP)
Sniper Elite: Resistance (GP)
The Stone of Madness

Wait for deep sale:
Dynasty Warriors: Origins
Star Wars Episode I: Jedi Power Battles
Tales of Graces f: Remastered

 

[Big Baller]

Looks up SW Hunters

 

[NewYork]

Astrea: Six-Sided Oracles, dice based deckbuilder. 20 hours so far. It's good.

 

[Northeastmonk]

RE4VR. Talk about making a classic game feel real. Being able to look around as if I was really there is amazing. It makes me wish they’d make more PS2/GC gen games in VR. Shiren, but it sure sucks to get killed on your own rescue. I’m looking forward to Dynasty Warriors.

 

[Laptop1991]

Backlog again.

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Wuthering Waves version 2.0, which was released on PS5 yesterday. Besides that, I'll likely continue playing Genshin and ZZZ.

 

[SiegeDamage]

Only backlog(ish) while I await Monster Hunter Wilds.

Marvel Rivals
World of Warcraft Classic
F-Zero 99

 

[Hookshot]

Not exactly backlog but it's an old game.

Blossom Tales 2: The Minotaur Prince. I'm probably 3/4 through it. Much like the first game it's a easy fairly safe top down Zelda. Weirdly the sequel removed some spells rather than built on them, or I just haven't found them yet.

 

[Kings Field]

Backlog.

GT7
dead Island 2
Replaying Xenoblade trilogy

 

[diffusionx]

I'll be playing stuff I have like Visions of Mana, FF7R, and Spiderman 2. Next month I am planning to get Civ 7 day one.

 

[Bond007]

Started Hogwarts Legacy a week or two ago- That will be my first completed game of 2025.
Next in line is Death Stranding.

 

[Sakura]

From that list, Dynasty Warriors.
Also play some more Elin and PoE2 when I get around to it.
And my gacha games (HBR, Gakumasu, Star Rail)

 

[Fbh]

Backlog.
Probably finishing up Rebirth in the next few days and then I'll be jumping into Nine Sols.

The only must play is Rebirth. I will be checking out Freedom Wars and maybe Ender Magnolias at some point too.

Here are some more cool stuffs for this month.

I'm curious to see how Eternal Strands will turn out.
I'm not that much into the art style, but the gameplay with the elements, physics and interactions looks pretty cool

 

[Hohenheim]

My first 2025 game is a old indie-gem called Skyrim. Thought it was about time to get through that one!

 

[Markio128]

January looks dry to me, with only VF 5 of interest.

Instead, I’ll be playing NG+ HFW in glorious Pro-vision, with a sprinkle of GT7.

 

[Celcius]

FF7 Rebirth on PC. Taking a 2 week vacation to binge it and get fully immersed. I'm hyped!

 

[Drake]

Backlog stuff (finish Stalker 2 and Mechwarrior 5 Clans), get FF 7 at the end of the month and then 10 days later buy KCD2. I'll probably play both games side by side. That will hold me over for a while.

 

[Exentryk]

Last of Us Part 1. Never played it before and wow I had been missing out huh? The opening was something else.

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

Indiana Jones and / or Stalker 2.

 

[hinch7]

Rebirth but may wait little for mods first plus RE4 Remake. And some PoE 2.

 

[R6Rider]

Sniper Elite for me.

 

[touchfuzzy]

Mostly backlog - I'm playing Fantasian: Neo Dimension (though it's starting to get a bit boring) and still have Farmagia in the shrinkwrap, probably going to crack that one tonight and give Fantasian a break. I also started Infinity Nikki finally on PS5 when I can wrestle it away from my kids and it is excellent.

Towards the end of the month, interested in Eternal Strands maybe on Steam Deck. Kinda want Donkey Kong Country but full price for a Wii remaster is a bit much.

 

[touchfuzzy]

Backlog

Currently wrapping up M&L Brotherhood. I‘m a bit upset because of how the end drags on. You basically beat the main boss and are mentally done with it, only to get a new main boss and be sent around the game world again. And now the final dungeon is big as hell. I hate this…

So anyway, so soothe myself I started ASTRO BOT and am loving it so far.

I put it down in the final dungeon and still haven't finished it. The length, every battle being basically a mini boss fight, dumb mechanics in the overworld, and really no narrative drive to finish it I was just finding it exhausting.

 

[Fess]

Already finished but going for the true ending in Minishoot Adventures. 1 out of 10 endgame arena stages with 5 or more hearts left to do.

Playing FF7 Remake as well, enjoying the story more than I should, I’ve been very critical of this game. The combat is still shit. Planning to finish it so I can play FF7 Rebirth soon.

 

[TintoConCasera]

It's backlog time.

 

[touchfuzzy]

ALso how can we forget Hello Kitty Island Adventure coming to Switch on January 30th

 

[Blindy]

Donkey Kong Country Returns(Switch Edition)
Tails of Iron 2
Ender Magnolia: Bloom in the Mist

Excellent month for me.
