Let me start by saying that I'm very happy you created a thread that is genuinely positive. Thank you.
As for me, I have a number of games that I would like to play. I will finish my Dishonored 2 playthrough, get more challenges on Hitman Season 1, play more Friday the 13th, then when I run out of games I own maybe Prey, Metal Great Solid 5, or The Witcher 3. I should do more with Elite Dangerous as well.

I don't know what it is but for some reason I have never been able to get into the Witcher series in the same way even though it is just as well made. For me it was the fixed lead that did it in. I hated Geralt and didn't want to be him. I haven't touched any game with a fixed lead since then, only the ones that allowed for creating your own character. That is definitely a big part of it for me. I like to tailer my protoganist to my tastes. When I play the DA games I love playing as a dwarf with a big battleaxe but I also like the option of playing as an elven mage or human sword and board warrior, archer etc...

I rather go back and replay Andromeda then go back to those games.

KOTOR 2 is for sale for 2.5 euros at Steam until 5th July, in case somebody hasn't played it yet. Been thinking of a replay for some time, but haven't gotten around to it. A good game to come back to. Tyranny just received a patch for the new Tales from the Tiers DLC, so that's next for me. Later this year a bigger DLC (with a new ending) comes out, and I'll possibly go for a NG+ at that point. I just have finished a charming little game called Sentience: the Android's Tale. It's a modest adventure game that should whet your appetite if you love stuff like Primordia or The Talos Principle (obviously way smaller in scale and not as great as either of those). Also more choices than in MEA, probably. Actually I sort of want to replay Primordia now. I've reinstalled Metro Last Light, so that I might finally finish it before Exodus is released in fall (I think?). I really want to do a third playthrough of Prey (only human neuromods), but I don't want to ruin it by overindulging. Here's hoping for a survival mode / NG+ mode or something. As for MEA, I did one playthrough, and afterwards have started over a few times, played a bit, made new CC faces, gone back to old ones, installed mods, tried out gimmicks, but not really gotten into the spirit of it.

I will try to see if I can replay Jade Empire, then either play ME:AMP or give another shot to DA3 until I can get Assassin's Creed: Origins and Tyranny.
If the Egyptian Creed works out, I will try their previous title, the one in Victorian England. If Creed is a non-starter, and I can take Tyranny, I might try the other two games from Obsidian, but I am not keen on them.
If I don't like either Creed or Obsidian's Revival games, I will go back to MET, A1 and DAT. Maybe try FO4 and Prey.
EDIT: Oh, yeah. I might buy sub for SWTOR at some point to catch up on post Ziost content, but probably not. I enjoyed Syndicate, a lot. So for me: Assassin's Creed Origins, and Shadow of War. Next year, Kingdom Come looks interesting, Red Dead (and maybe Far Cry 5)

I rather go back and replay Andromeda then go back to those games. I already got stuck on the first, which I got on sale. So no incentive to buy the other two of the series, since I already knew that I wouldn't like them.

Well - First of all.. I am still playing ME:A... Now that's out of the way... I am used to play several games in a week. One day this game, another day that, unless I am in a critical stage in a game. In that later case I play until that critical stage is passed. Now - The games I play at this moment, next to ME:A, are: 1. Starpoint Gemini Warlords. 2. Mars War Logs. 3. Two Worlds II. 4. Rebel Galaxy. 5. Far Cry Primal (yes I know ) I have a huge backlog of games that I plan to play the coming time. All games that I bought, but for some reason not have played yet. A small selection: the Risen series, The Technomancer, Dead Space 2, Divinity 2 Developers Edition, Pillars of Eternity (with expansions) and I want to complete my play trough of Divinity Original Sin Enhanced Edition. There are much more, but this is my "short therm" planning. So - That's it. I am still playing ME:A (325+ hours by now), but play enough games alongside to keep an open mind.

None. Currently there is no game out there that piques my interest, in fact 2017 looks like a really bleak year for me.

I've been playing Fallout 4 and DAI in between my second run with MEA.
I really liked all the building in Fallout 4.
It makes me wonder if MEA would be better if it allowed you to build your own settlements.
If they let you build rather than some of the fetch quests would it be better?
Some people hate the settlement building but I think it adds replay value since you can do things differently.

Some people hate the settlement building but I think it adds replay value since you can do things differently. Given that this is one of my favorite parts of FO4, I expected something similar with MEA. At least some self developing settlement and not an entirely static one that looks the same on day 1 as it does on day 3450, complete with totally immobile NPCs. It doesn't even make a visual difference if you build a military or scientific outpost. It's just there, no reason to revisit.

Especially found it annoying when I'm in the middle of doing something and a settlement falls under attack, which happens a lot when you've settled a good amount. I think a settlement thing would have worked better gor me in MEA actually because there are fewer--managing 4 bases wouldn't be as tedious for me. I think that next time I will just settle Sanctuary and a few of the other big ones and leave all the tiny ones alone.

The game is very overwhelming with everything scattered. It makes my OCD itch badly. The weird thing is the game is up my ally but for some reason I just can't finish it. Fantasy is my second favorite genre after space opera sci f (a very close second at that) and I have played a crap ton of DA and TES over the years, love watching Game of Thrones and of course love LOTR. I don't know what it is but for some reason I have never been able to get into the Witcher series in the same way even though it is just as well made. The combat in the original game was atrocious, I barely finished the first and almost didn't get the second one. But I broke down and got the second one and liked it, but the third one I love, played it to death. The DLC on the game is better than some full games I've played.

There's a lot of mods taking care of the more tedious aspects of settlement building. Also I made it my business to only make a personal appearance at fully fledged settlements when they're under attack. Certainly not at Tenpines or Hangman's Alley. Let them deal with it. If they lose, they recover over time anyway.

Or I could try getting into Watch Dogs 2 again, first one I completed, second just hasn't got me interested :/

I haven't really checked because I haven't played the game since it launched and haven't replayed, but maybe!
