Operation Harsh Doorstop - I have been missing a moddable big map team based vehicle shooter for... a decade? EA really screwed this space over and for years and years mods like Forgotten Hope 2 and Project Reality stayed on the Battlefield 2 engine because no new alternative came. OHD is that game, and it is free! Flying helicopters in multiplayer is a mental challenge and rush like no other. Still early access and a lot of rough edges, but the core is so good that I have been totally addicted and spent a lot of time helping noobs figure out the game because I like it so much.

Motor Town: Behind The Wheel - Recently there has been a big increase in multiplayer servers with 20+ people on them, which this game ABSOLUTELY deserves and even more excitingly I have started to see custom race events organically pop up in populated servers which I think will become really popular since Motor Town is a fantastic racing game that just happens to also be a fantastic driving job simulator. It is a blast to organically meet up with some other drivers on a server and do a couple of races together and then go off and do other driving jobs.

Out Of Ore - Really I don't know I hadn't gotten this game before, I am a geologist and I like big machines, in this game it is like one of those satisfactory/factorio games... except you ACTUALLY mine instead of all the fun bits being abstracted away leaving only the fiddly automation parts. There are a plethora of loaders, excavators and trucks and digging and terraforming land with them is a blast in this game. I haven't played for super long but it is already a huge recommend for me!
