I’m still playing Divinity: Original Sin II, and despite over a dozen hours in the past week, I’ve made very little progress. At least there are now large swaths of the map that are clear, but it takes so long to clear them. Toward the end of the game, this one is running into inventory management problems like its predecessor did, though they are improved somewhat.

I also picked up Rivals of Aether II. There’s a small bug on the character select screen when playing leverless, but now that I know how to avoid it, the game is a good time. The level of play online, right out of the gate, is so much higher than basically any other fighting game I’ve played at launch, so it’s tough to find a match on my level, but it’s fun when you find that sweet spot.

My bro and I have been playing modded Satisfactory, this is probably gonna be my main game for the next year! We been on since 1.0 release and still have so much to do!

I finished Crow Country, a cool survival horror game that looks a lot like classic Final Fantasy 7. Great game, actually had a decent story and the final confrontation was pretty eerie.

No big spoilers, but there’s a scene near the end of the protagonist descending a giant, disconnected ladder in total darkness that was chillingly effective.
