Seeing as lots of people inevitably are going to be working from home, or least will be on reduced hours/ duties over the next while I wanted to hear what games are on your backlog than with extra time available you might get around to playing. If anything, more time for games should be a silver lining of this whole crisis for some.
I'll get started- currently I'm playing through Witcher 3. I put up many critiques about it on Discord but after going back and giving it another shot I'm starting to get into. Definitely not Game of the Year quality, but it's been good to me so far.
I've also decided to return to Borderlands 3 and build up the 3/4 characters I haven't tried yet. And I've found a new love for the game in doing so. Gameplay changes as simple as new powers and abilities has made me look at this game in a new light.
To add to the mix, I'm also trying to complete Need for Speed: Heat 100%, which means all races, collectibles and all the customized cars I feel like. So far it's been fun playing it my way and ignoring the absolutely awful storyline.
So that gives me a huge RPG, a very fun shooter and a racing game to mix it up. I've also got Assassin's Creed: Odyssey, Red Dead 2 and CoD: Warzone to try once this is all done so I'll be a busy gamer! Maybe, just maybe, I'll also find time to write a roleplay here and there too.
What's your backlog/ playlist looking like?

i'm playing fire emblem three houses still and might try to replay it with the other two houses to see what's different with the story. I need to work towards finishing nier automatas second play through too and fist of the north star as well.

I was curious about that game, so I'm glad you've cleared up my curiosity! What's the main issues with the game? Also kudos to your dedication, I'm the same way. Hence playing Witcher despite disagreeing with all the good reviews.

Check out 7 Deadly Sins on mobile too, Price gives it a big thumbs up.

Hence playing Witcher despite disagreeing with all the good reviews. Its director is the same guy who did FF Type-0... so action / mission based gameplay that might be more at home on handheld, no real JRPG story telling sensibilities. They jettisoned a lot of plot for a mass marketing project - movie, web series, tech demo, dlc, upcoming book - so its a fetch quest just to get a complete picture of the narrative. It then focuses on an Assassin's Creed style sandbox for Monster Hunter style battles, which you could easily spend 60 hours with - until it decides to get extremely linear for the second "half." (so inversion of 13) The fact that your protagonists are look like a K-Pop group acting out Entourage doesn't rank on the complaints list. ...It has its charms, but if you ever liked the franchise, I'd pick up a different Square Enix effort. Sadly OCD will keep me coming back. I hear great things about Witcher, still haven't tried it, I just don't like the idea of going back to earlier games to get the most out of III. That said, good luck with it.

I figured this would give me more time for Neverwinter Nights- but that has not been the case. I’m slowly working through the “Infinite Dungeons” module which is.....accurately named. It’s cathartic though going through room after room killing everything
Hoping to get more gaming time in

Playing Borderlands 2 right now as I never actually finished it the first time round... I might not finish it this time either as I’m on a tight deadline what with Resident Evil 3 coming in a few weeks... I know it’s a few weeks but I’m a pretty slow player, I only get to play for an hour or two every other night or so

I've been replaying Fallen Order but unfortunately I can:t think of many other games to plau for 3 weeks of freedom from school.
Maybe another run through Castlevania: Symphony of the Night couldn't hurt.

Total Extreme Wrestling 2016 !!! Fire Pro Wrestling World !!! What a surprise! - Even played a bit of EWR.
I've also been playing Pokémon ... Currently beating Pokémon Crystal. And I decided to play Fallout 3 since I have so much free time, what a game! And to have frustrating fun, League of Legends although I'm bad.
