I've been playing Street Fighter 6 quite a lot.

I've been mostly bouncing between FFXIV and Rimworld.
Age of wonders 3, I'd like to finish it before age of wonders 4 goes on sale.
Satisfactory, restarted for the 4th time, this time in the desert, I've never made it much past oil, but I've gotten really good at getting to oil! This time I'm using platforms everywhere, and it's making traveling/exploring so much easier, but I feel like it's also taken a lot of wonder out of exploration.
Path of exile is always in the background, waiting for me to come back to it. I'm super excited to see what exile con brings.
Playing them all on the deck with Bluetooth mouse and keyboard. The deck has also made other games so much more accessible, skul the hero slayer, dead cells, and hollow Knight I've put more time into than ever on the computer/console.
I'm putting my earphones in to avoid the unbelievably loud whirring of my PS4, and playing Wreckfest and Mordheim single player for the eight millionth hour just to kill time between working, and working some more.
In the short moments I've had for gaming, I've finished the main story in Saints Row (the rebooted one). It was OK, reasonably fun and definitely worth the £12 or so I paid on ebay. Not sure what's next, maybe finish my second run of Horizon Zero Dawn.
Playing through the mass effect trilogy again because, why not?
Also bought battlebits remastered last night and gave that a go. A lot of fun for some casual shooter action!
Starcraft and KatanaZero. Can't beat those two.
Been going back to classics (thanks virtual consoles), currently doing the lost super Mario bros 3 card levels.
Cassette Beasts (really good if you love Pokemon but are bored of Pokemon and want something a bit different)
Chivalry 2 (mindless stabby fun, but I've gotten to a point where I'm good enough to know I suck but too old and busy to get better)
Runescape (never played as a kid, my friends got me into it earlier this year then they stopped playing lol)
I wish Diablo and Zelda were my answers.
Just started Cassette Beasts last night. It' super cute. It's a great change of pace from when I need a break from Diablo 4.
edit: I just realized this mag was UKcasual and not Casual. I'm not in the UK at all, sorry :(
In-between FFXIV time I've heavily gotten back into Skyrim due to a wabbajack list called Fable Lore. I haven't played anything new in a long time. Not even sure what id get.
Friend put me onto Control. Picked it up at discount and enjoying it so far.
I really liked Control, but found the boss fights a bit too hard (I hate boss fights as I'm awful at them).
Nothing has displaced Deep Rock Galactic for me for quite a while. It's just so much fun to play - with friends, strangers, or solo - all are good.
Bosco is such a great wingman.
I've been playing Far Cry 3 on the ps4 (my first Far Cry game, alternating between really enjoying it and tearing my hair out at the janky "platforming") and nearly finished Terra Nil on PC, been revisiting Frostpunk a little bit too. But mainly I'm wondering if the upcoming FF16 release will be the excuse I need to finally buy a PS5 (•̯͡. •̯͡ )

My newest minor obsession has been Dungeon Defenders 1, though I wish I was playing Ace Combat 7.
Is that game still going? I remember when dd2 came out, I played it for a bit and it fouled my taste so much that I never went back to dd1, I had hundreds, if not a thousand, hours in dd1.
FM23 on the steam deck. Dota 2 on the main PC.
Oceanhorn, while I'm thinking about what my next "real" game will be. Sometimes I like to chill with some low stress little games in between, y'know?
Oceanhorn was great. Really caught the nostalgic "playing Wind Waker on the GameCube" vibe for me.
i feel like i got into gta online at the worst possible time regarding the recent mercenaries update
Just completed the latest No Man's Sky expedition... getting close to finishing the main story in the new Zelda. I pretty much tend to play one game at a time until I'm done with it before moving onto the next.
Very much trying to tamp down my hype & excitement for Starfield and Fable... wait, Duke Nukem? Is there a new Duke Nukem?! I used to make maps for DN3D that we'd play over modem (BEEEP BROOOOOP BRRRRRRRR), my friends quickly learned that the high-powered weapon seductively placed on a pedastal with flashing lights was always a squishing trap.
Cannot overstate how excited I am about the new Fable!
"You're that Chicken Chaser!"
Did you see the ad with Richard Ayoade (omg I spelled his name right, achievement unlocked)? As per, people whingeing about it, I thought it was brilliant. But then I'm a huge fan of his since the Garth Merenghi days.
Aye - the wife and I loved it. Was so weird as the night before we were getting her steam deck set up and we watched the o.g trailer while talking about how great it was.
@sideone, this is which I most play since several Years. 100% free, Windows, Linux, Mac, one of the best free games ever.

mainly elite dangerous and banished atm
Forza Horizon 5's going to have a Barbie crossover soon so that's definitely on my to-play list
Got 7 Days to Die currently on the mind with it's alpha 21 release. Also recently returned to swtor and am enjoying a bit more of a casual pace.
Playing a bunch of battlebit at the moment. Excellent game well worth a look if you have a chance
Divinity 2 Original Sin, after that either going to do a modded playthrough of Total War: Three Kingdoms or play the Batman: Arkham series.
Finished up TOTK a while ago, playing Xenoblade Chronicles X currently. I plan to get the new Katamari Remake soon too.
