Still Wakes the Deep's Siren's Call DLC, bit on the short and overpriced side, but was alright.

Also played a lot of the Jump Ship demo before it got removed from Steam, that was just way too much fun.

Still plugging my way through Majora’s Mask. Still flip flopping on whether I enjoy it or not, thanks to having to keep rewinding time and that.

Definitely not an intuitive game. It's completely brilliant, but very hard to progress through without a guide the first time through. It "feels" more punishing than it actually is though and once you get into more of a Soulslike/Roguelike mindset with it some of its rougher edges really smooth out.

The actual Dungeons are a bit of a doddle. But with every reset, there’s niggly little things you need to do, like either collecting the Silver Rupees in Clock Town to get some funds or withdrawing from your savings, then tanking it around in Termina Field to get Bombs, Arrows, Fairies etc.

I feel there’s also too many races, which go on a bit and once you’ve utterly and horribly blobbed it, no option to Give In.

But I definitely enjoyed it more when it first came out.

One of my favorite games of all time. It was really mind-bending at the time. I hope it still stands up but time is more unkind to Video Games than any other form of media/art. One of my favorite games back in the day was Perfect Dark. It was rereleased a few years ago. I picked it up but couldn't even play it for 5 minutes.

Plugging away at Wild Hunt. Really REALLY disliking Gwent. I'm no good at those sort of games and it's pissing me off that there's so much of it. Took me about 20 goes to beat the Bloody Baron and that hasn't filled me with confidence about my chances of late game matches.

What was wrong with Dice Poker?

Gonna try xenonauts 2 again because it's not like i have anything better to do.

With the new expansion I'm back playing the Rogue Trader CRPG and having a great time. Although my laptop was going into Hibernate mode sporadically while in the middle of the game. Then it eventually kept going back into Hibernate when I tried to get out of it. I had to restart eventually, losing quite a bit of progress. I updated my graphics driver and other things, so I hope it's stopped now.

I thought gwent was pretty fun but different strokes for different folks.

Playing more xenonauts 2. Continent bonuses are awesome. Getting towards the end game.

I'm sure Gwent is fun, if you're even passingly good at it. But I however, am not good at it. At all.
As far as I can see it relies more on you getting lucky and drawing the cards you need at the start rather then being skillful. Although I'm sure if you are skilled, you could make any of the cards work. But again, I lack said skill.

I must admit though, at first I did rather overlook the fact that Gwent was a secondary, non-storyline advancing, game element. I erroneously assumed that because it was everywhere that it must be important. So that's very much on me.

Been leveling up my Arbitrator (Adeptus Arbites) character in Darktide.

Having the cyber dog has its benefits, but I'd have preferred a more hands on approach, like being able to send it after items and particular enemies in the distance. Granted, I'm around level 10 or so, so there might be more to it than how I'm playing the class. I know there are some talents that give it abilities, but I'll have to wait til I unlock them to judge their usefulness. Also currently not a fan of the classes ranged weapons selection, as the iconic shotgun takes soooo long to reload. Looking forward to unlocking the bolt pistol and Bolter. Just sticking to the shotgun to get mastery points and maybe I'll begin to enjoy it once I get more perks.

Its definitely cool seeing the cyber dog jump/climb up, latch on and savage the larger enemies like Chaos Spawn and such.

a streamer i like to use for background noise has been leveling up an arbitrator recently. weapon wise, the bolt pistol looks to be a solid choice, given how just pastes things

Doing decently in Xenonauts 2. Sabotaged an alien platform bombarding earth and slowed its bombardment of my funding regions for a while. It came at a cost of 3 soldiers unfortunately but it's a timed mission so that's to be expected. Aside from that i took down a big carrier ufo or something that was pretty hard to take down at close range. I managed to not lose a single soldier in that mission and got a lot of good stuff from the ufo including research and tech. Now a terror mission is coming up.
