I've been playing some TES4: Oblivion, with a pure spellcaster. No weapons, no armor.
Taking a break from that for now for a reroll in Fallout 4 to do some of the content I haven't done yet. The last character was on Survival difficulty which I enjoyed - except for the beginning when damn near everything can one-shot kill you, and the lack of decent fast travel options (except for BoS Vertibirds, which sucks because I really, really want to betray the BoS sooner rather than later). Not being able to save except when sleeping in a bed or on exit also kind of sucked, but I get why they did that.

Dark Souls 1 and 2.
"Every luxury has a deep price. Every indulgence, a cosmic cost. Each fiber of pleasure you experience causes equivalent pain somewhere else. This is the first law of emodynamics [sic]. Joy can be neither created nor destroyed. The balance of happiness is constant.
Fact: Every time you eat a bite of cake, someone gets horsewhipped.
Facter: Every time two people kiss, an orphanage collapses.
Factest: Every time a baby is born, an innocent animal is severely mocked for its physical appearance. Don't be a pleasure hog. Your every smile is a dagger. Happiness is murder.
Vote "yes" on Proposition 1321. Think of some kids. Some kids."

I'm trying to get back into Elite: Dangerous again.
I don't believe you. Get over it.

Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?

There is no better way to convey the least amount of information in the greatest amount of words than to try explaining your religious views.

PC/Steam indie game called Gemini Rue. It's a few years old, mostly point-and-click, and very retro in its aesthetic. Highly reminiscent of the classic Sierra games. It has parallel plotlines:
Ex-assassin turned cop looking for his missing brother
The escape from a 'rehabilitation' center for petty criminals and thugs where memories and personalities are erased and rebuilt
It's pretty cyberpunk.

MGS V, and this game is massive. Holy shit. I love it.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Just bought Oblivion for the PS3.
Thought I'd give it a go.
So far, I prefer Skyrim but it's not too bad.

I've been playing Darkest Dungeons a bit, which is a Gothic RPG where your characters can get overstressed from being in the dungeons or even go insane or have a heart attack from fear and mental pain. I also like the unique graphics, which appear to be hand drawn.
I got stuck on Fallout 4. Can't find the Rail Road to save my life. But no one tell me. My goal is to beat the game without consulting outside help.
Those are both on PS4.
For Vita I've been playing Batman Arkham Origins:Blackgate really nice game and I was happy with how good Vita's graphics are.
