I've heard that's a great time killer, I'll add it to my list!

Right now I'm playing Dragon Quest 11. I recommend this for anyone who loves classic JRPGs, but it's a major time investment, and not for everyone. Still, the charm of the world and characters, and playing around with all the overpowered ability combinations by late game, make this a fun experience for me. The use of turn-based battles keep the gameplay style more relaxing rather than hectic. I recommend playing with the "Draconian Quest" option for harder monsters. If you want to hear the real music (with orchestral recordings) you should play either the Switch version, or the PC version with a mod. The PS4 version and base PC version are gimped with midi type stuff for some obscure reason.

Once I finish DQ11 I'm interested in picking up the Xenoblade remaster. I'll probably want to do a couple short games in between as a buffer, though.

I'm currently into ESO, the first one. I loved skyrim V and was scared of it all moving online, but it's honestly not bad at all. I love the customization that there is and the lore books you can find about. Some of them are so funny!

I was also into We Happy Few there for a little bit. If you like sneaky strategic games, it's a good game to give a try.

I'd recommend Hexcells, Gunpoint, Hotline Miami and its sequel, the entire Ace Attorney series except Dual Destinies (which is way too easy; Investigations 2 can only be obtained online as it was never officially released in English), Nonogram, the Danganronpa series (although I've only completed the first game and the first chapter of the second) and I would especially recommend Portal) and Portal 2.

Playing some X-com: Enemy Within with The Long War mod. I've recently completed X-Com2 with its expansion, War of the Chosen. These are most excellent games. It's my 3rd time through the first (EW/EU) X-com reboot. Not that I don't have games, I have over 1,000 cherry-picked games on Steam.

Also playing some Mordhau: mace-to-the-face combat is so personal and visceral, nothing quite compares. Bannerlord's Early Access status is progressing, but that's a bit slow for my taste, so Mordhau scratches that itch.
