I'm also still playing FTL from time to time, though much less now that I got lucky and managed to unlock the Crystal ship by quest. I've also been keeping a "museum," of sorts, of pictures of all the ships I've played to completion. I now only have Engi C and Crystal B left to unlock.

I played Crypt of the Necrodancer, I was very unhappy with the purchase. It's a clever premise for movement combined with a very average roguelike. The combat is an unbalanced mess, I could only reccomend it if you want something more interactive than Audiosurf, since you *can* rework your own music to the game itself, which is pretty handy.
Still, Blech.

Deleted all old DAI save files.
Started fresh. Nightmare. Human Male Mage (Rift Mage).
1/3ish through Hinterlands, stretching the boundries before going to Val Roy to see Chantry. Then I guess finishing most of Hinterlands, Storm Coast. Then Mage quest. Then heading into Fallow Mire and maybe Forgotten Oasis. Then Heart Shall Burn.
Very methodical. Doing this the 'right' way.

I've been playing Papers, Please the last few days. I suspect that it's deliberately designed to drive you nuts by constantly adding new complications that make your job harder even when you're being as efficient and fair as possible, while punishing you for mistakes that are easy to make. In which case...mission accomplished. I guess I probably already assumed that things could be like this for both potential immigrants and border security agents, though.

X-Com: Enemy Unknown. Just started playing it last week and already love it. It probably helps that my female support colonel sounds like Commander Shepard.

He is as cool as Dante. His lines during a fight are, well, so classy, as much as he is. One of my favorite antagonists after Joker of Batman

Picked up Jaws of Hakkon and The Descent for DAI and am currently playing that.
I might start up another canon playthrough if the next dlc announced at PAX includes new hairstyles, if not I'll just continue on my current save.

To be fair, I'm enjoying myself much more this time. The game finally runs well (enough) on my PC on High, and I understand 'how to play' enough that I don't feel tedium and/or annoyance at things as much.
I might do more (other characters, not my main mage) playthroughs later on, but probably not until 2016-2017+ and/or me buying all the DLC (probably on sale) and/or when I can bear to do DAO+DA2 playthroughs as well.

Picked up Risen 3 Titan Lords from the recent Steam sale. I am surprisingly hooked. The graphics are nothing to speak of (even after the update, especially characters just look awful) but Piranha Bytes just knows how to build worlds. Not too large but interesting and chock full of cool stuff to find (from quests to items to vistas). I am not too fond of how they slapped the pirate and fantasy settings together but some of the dialogue is just typical PB hilariousness (playing in German, no idea how well it translates into English).
The combat system is really good this time around (focusing on melee). A nice mix of timing combos and movement. Besides, you can be very efficient in fights if you tactically divide the aggro of the enemies between yourself and your companion. That's really fun. Although, I'd say it's a little too easy on normal difficulty.
I also like the character progression. It's fairly quick and steady (no levels, you basically use XP directly as currency to upgrade stats and you can learn skills from trainers), so every couple of minutes you get to enhance some stat or skill of your character. I find it very rewarding.
All in all about 10 hours in, it's a good game and I'd say it exceeded my (admittedly low) expectations.
Still, I do thing it's high time for PB to do something new that breaks out of the old Gothic formula. Don't get me wrong, I am a die hard Gothic 1 and 2 fanboy but IMO, it was time for more innovation long ago. And dare I say, it would do them well to update their engine (maybe license one) and make believable characters. The NPC in Risen 3 have fun dialogue but the models look like wooden puppets with no expression whatsoever. They are about 9 years behind current RPG standards in that regard. I hope they'll manage to improve on that front with their new project Elex.
