This week I decided to go back and play the original Castlevania on the NES. It's kind of like an old school souls game in a way, it's very hard but once you figure out a section it becomes extremely easy to do it again when you die.
I remember trying out Castlevania during a school trip on my modded 3ds. It was shortly after I played my first Soulslike, Bloodborne. Bloodborne gave me a confidence boost that wasn't ready for Castlevania...
I'm playing a few things because of my ADHD. In the middle of replaying Axiom Verge on the Steam Deck. Also playing Alien Isolation for the first time, I need to take breaks because it's so intense. I also always play a little Dead By Daylight, been playing for 6 years now.
I'm taking a bit of a break to avoid burnout, but I'm looking to start Crusader of Centy / Soleil from the Sega Mega Drive this weekend. In a simple sense it was Sega's bite back at Zelda: A Link to the Past but with jumping and animal companions.
I even bought myself a whole controller (8bitdo M30) just to enjoy me some Mega Drive emulation.
I have tried multiple times to get into Disco Elysium and I am interested by the world and story, I've played games with similar gameplay and had no issues but I just can't get into it. I have no idea what is causing it.

IT is.. not what I expected. I'm still playing through, I just got through the harbor.
