…OR I will refer to records as “vinyl CDs” like I did last time.

You have been warned.

Don’t test me; I will do it!

Current games I have on my sights are:

The original Deus Ex

Ib

Infinity Nikki

Remnant II

Silent Hill II (through emulation)

Dragon’s Dogma II

Slay the Princess

ELEX and ELEX 2

Dread Delusion

Daggerfall

Morrowind

Hylics 1 and 2

RuneScape 3 (not RuneScape Classic… I know, I know, don’t hurt me!)

Currently playing:

Elden Ring (finishing it)

OMORI (slowly taking my time in finishing it)

Fallout 76 (much better than what it was at launch; if anyone wants to play with me, they may ask me)

Recently finished:

Disco Elysium

Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous (y’all should play both Pathfinder CRPG games)

Love:

CRPGs

MMORPGs (yes, even now)

Open-world games (…yes, even with the over-saturation)

Decision-making

Stealth games

Pacifist runs

Minor horror elements? Eh, idk, nothing, like, over-bearing, ig

Macabre horror (basically, horror that isn’t horror; just has the aesthetic)

3D platformers (like Super fucking Mario; you know, the Italian-American voiced by Chris Pratt)

Mods, mods, mods

Not too fucking long; let me finish a game when I want to easily (so, basically, not, like, Persona 5-levels of long, idk)

Anything like Majora’s Mask

“Nautical games” (Wind Waker, Dredge, etc.)

“Classic games” (basically, games through emulation)

VR games, oddly enough

“Cozy games”

“girl games” shovel-ware (basically, the precursor to “cozy games”; the type of shit you found on the Nintendo Wii)

Interactivity outside of the actual game (I don’t know much about Pokemon Go… but what I do know is Pokemon Go to the polls)

Dungeon crawlers (think: King’s Field)

Music with lyrics, idk (I don’t know much about Quavo… but what I do know is Quavo go to the polls)

Good music. Banger music, even.

No loading screens; seriously, let me start up a game and just play. I feel like starting up a game nowadays is sometimes a whole process.

Non-Western games (…Eh, tbh, I don’t really have a bias, I’m just sort-of interested in how they’re developing and what they have to bring… SO think: Chinese, Vietnamese, Russian, Indian, African, Latin American, etc.)

Nintendo games…

…or anything LIKE a Nintendo game (with wacky gameplay, idk)

Autistic games… Okay, so far, I think OMORI is, like, the only “Autistic game” out there, but surprise me.

LGBTQIA+ games

BIPOC character games

… okay, that’s all, you don’t even have to follow these requirements at all; hell, be a little creative and use your own insight.

Okay… now…

…SHOOT!

(No, wait, put the gun away!)

    Your tastes are a little different than mine. It’s rare for me to play a CRPG. But on your current game list, Silent Hill 2 stood out to me. There’s a reason that the game is universally loved. I’m kind of waiting for the remake to do another playthrough, but it’s honestly a pretty short game. I might also suggest giving the PC version a go. Silent Hill Enhanced Edition is reportedly extremely good, although I haven’t played it myself.

        It was decent when it was released. It had some great ideas that were only really realised in the second game. I think playing through it these days would be a bit of a slog and I’m not sure I would recommend it for a modern audience. I might suggest starting with 2, and if you need to play more, then play the first and third games (in that order). Everything after can be safely skipped.
