What games are you playing these days? - casperr - Jan 19, 2026
I’m having a hard time finding good games lately.
Right now I play a bit of Call of Duty, some CS, and a few simulator games here and there.
What are you guys playing these days? Any recommendations?

If you're a fan of zombie games, I would recommend Left 4 Dead. Although it was released ages ago, it still is considered a classic in the community. Huge player base still active there. If you would like something newer then... Back 4 Blood, not as popular and development has been discontinued, but it is a game I constantly play myself. It has a deck builder and randomized corruption in each playthrough. If you like challenges, I would say to go with B4B and L4D for nostalgia.

I ended up getting CIV 6 for free through epic and that's been taking a lot of my gaming time. I love the fact that there are many ways to win and every game feels like a new game with the amount of CIVs available.
Also AOE2 is still a lot of fun for me. campaign is great to help you get back into it, and the scenarios are all really well done. Multiplayer is a lot of fun too if you are somewhat good at the game. Not really recommended unless you have a good understanding of the fundamentals
Try out some RTS games, they can be a real time sink.

I downloaded BO3 the other day again just to play zombies. Love that game mode

I played Left 4 Dead when I was a kid, might give it another try for nostalgia. I’m not really into zombie games these days, but thanks for the suggestion

I got CIV 6 for free on Epic but haven’t really gotten into it yet. RTS games are cool, I’m just not sure I have the time to dive into them. Thanks for the recommendation.

Zombies were never really my thing, especially BO3, but thanks anyway.

I play CS2 👌🏻
I've been playing CS since CS1.6

I used to play Call of Duty Mobile for years. I miss it, but I have other priorities in life now.💯🙂

Not a whole lot for me. Recent months have been mainly Apex Legends and Diablo 4. I'm probably done with Diablo 4 until the new expansion comes out in April though. I randomly hop on a couple of different single player games when I'm feeling them as well. OSRS is always something I'm off/on with too.
