Let's see... FFXIV, I was going to carry on with endwalker but ended up levelling crafters instead. Foxhole, a new war started so I was doing naval landings with my regiment yesterday. Trying to get into BG3 but I'm not sure. Satisfactory, it's been a fun little game so far, I was doing my first playthrough with a few people but half of them have been a bit occupied this week.

I recently finished playing Deliver Us Mars. I'm happy with it for the most part, but it only reinforced my suspicion that Unreal Engine games are not being optimised well enough 🫠

In case anyone wishes to know what I thought of the game:

The story is fine. It feels like so many problems would be solved with a simple conversation and characters make decisions impulsively. The voice acting is spectacular, and the background music, while not cinematic by any stretch of the imagination, was definitely really good for setting the mood.

Maybe this week I can go back to playing a little bit. ATM I'm doing some backlog with Secret of Mana and Fallout New Vegas.

I've started a new Minecraft world on the All the Mods 9 modpack together with a buddy of mine!

it's been a blast so far!

just getting ae2 setup going, beginning to automate all the things, it's great!

Third play through of Lies of P from scratch, only this time with a balance build. Not sure if it’s because I’m used to the games enemies but it seems like balance is very op compared to motivity and technique builds.

Hogwarts Legacy is up next.

Just finished Lies of P. My hands are still shaking from fighting the final boss, that one was a nightmare, took me 3 hours of attempts.

(yes, the true final boss)

Still, this is a great game for fans of Soulslikes - more of an iterative improvement than anything revolutionary, and not as thematically interesting as Fromsoft titles, but a very polished experience. Really good boss fights.

Reassembly.

If you liked the concept of captain forever but wanted more of a full game than an experience, try this one out. You build your ships with similar blocks but there's factions with their own hull piece shapes and weapons and you can use a single ship or a fleet.

A warning though: it's like civ or grand strategy games as in you'll sit down to play for a few hours in the evening and suddenly the sun is coming up so I should save and exit right after I conquer this block over here.
