Exactly as it says on the tin, folks...
What video game you playing now?
Favourite games? Favoured platform? Games you want to play in the future? Etc. etc. etc.
As of now (8th Feb just so as I remember)... I fired up Dawn of War: Dark Crusade... >_> On the PS3, I'm playing Deus Ex: Human Revolution - Director's Cut and on the PS4 I'm inching my way through Dishonored 2, but have a mild hankering to play Horizon: Zero Dawn. And on the PSVita (yes, I have one of those), I'm just button mashing on one Hyperdimension: Neptunia game or another... I think it's one of the non-canon games, but whatever, I wreck the square button and win! -____-
Your turn...

I'm playing the video game "online masters program" Had to quit either video games or miniatures otherwise I would flunk out. I chose to cut out video games until I graduate. I was playing skyrim over the winter break though.

I'm sort of playing super meat boy. I say sort of because I'm not actually playing it, I'm supervising my kids playing it.
Sadly, I don't have too much time to play anything properly right now because of my studies.

See, I wouldn't be able to let either go (or any of my multitude of hobbies), because I'm too capricious. Writing as a hobby, I need my emotional masochism, I need my dice fix and I need my in-your-face-visceral action...! All things in moderation... except for a lack of time... ¬_¬

I have several games on the docket: Star Wars: the Old Republic - finishing up the story lines for all the classes. Stellaris - I love Master of Orion, and I'm trying it out to see how it compares, it's different, but not too bad so far, but the research is SLOW in that game. Star Control 2: the Ur-Quan Masters HD - An old classic I can't help but enjoy from time to time.

Stellaris changes in a few days in a big way. They're getting rid of the warp-drive and wormhole FTL options, but they're adding a whole load of stuff as well. If it turns out that you don't enjoy the changes, you can always revert back to a previous version.

I have it on Steam, which makes it either update or not, revert. I'm rather sad to see the different drive options go away, but I guess a lot of the players have preferred the hyperdrive system (it is more defensible).

Stellaris is one of the games that you can revert if you want to, though I forget how. I think that the Steam forums tell you how. Though, if you revert, you may find that some of your DLC stops working

My biggest kick right now is playing Dungeons and Dragons Online. For some reason I just really enjoy leveling up through the different classes. They have a decent variety available and a large amount of in game content to take you up to level 30. They just added Ravenloft as an expansion as well.
I am also playing a card game called Legends of the Elder Scrolls. Kind of a fast paced Yu-Gi-Oh or Pokémon or magic the gathering wanna-be. Free to play so I got my money's worth.

Anybody playing Monster Hunter: World? It's been a couple of weeks and I'm still kind of losing my shit over how much fun it is.

'cos there's genuinely too much to keep track of. Played a friend's copy a bit, but gave it back after a week... :/ Haven't been that keen on recent games...

It's definitely a lot to keep track of. I dunno though, it's really the first game since Witcher 3 that hasn't felt like a total letdown to me.

Anybody playing Monster Hunter: World? It's been a couple of weeks and I'm still kind of losing my shit over how much fun it is. I played a couple of the old Monster Hunter games! Though the art style of basically everything but the monsters themselves never really appealed to me , and even still I'm debating picking it up. As for me, lately I've been playing the Vermintide 2 Beta, Bloodborne, and Europa Universalis 4.

As for me, lately I've been playing the Vermintide 2 Beta, Bloodborne, and Europa Universalis 4. I feel like I've been waiting for Monster Hunter to come back to console for forever. The ludicrously huge weapon size and highly impractical armor bothers me quite a bit, but thus far not using them has been a pretty good solution. And... as much as I hate to admit it, there's stuff in there that I'd probably use anyway due to rule of cool.
