Finished Azure Striker Gunvolt, but since it ended in a cliff hanger, started (and finished) Azure Stricker Gunvolt 2 (both comes in same bundle). The second game is very similar to the first one, but with some more powers, another playable character, and QoL features.

Power ups also work a bit differently. Though I preferred the original one for that. Other than that, it felt like an improvement over every aspect.

After that, started Octopath Traveller. The game is so beautiful. This is my first 2D-HD game, and while I have seen many trailers of different games that use this visual style, actually playing the game made me fell in love with it.

Game is a pure JRPG, loving everything about it, except that each characters are completely separate, even when they are in party there is no interactions between them, it’s like others don’t exist. It’s basically story of 8 different characters, that just happen to be traveling together, without ever talking to each other.

I am still in early game though. Have just recruited my 5th character, but haven’t cleared their initial story yet. Difficulty seems to be increasing with each new character recruited, but haven’t had much trouble with it yet.

Last, but not least, still playing Kingdom Come: Deliverance, and will probably be playing this for many months. On paper, it didn’t seem like a game I would enjoy too much, I am generally not a fan of too much realism in games, but I am really enjoying it. As you repeatedly do something, you get better in it, and the difference is very obvious, so it makes the “grind” worthwhile, though that doesn’t mean the game isn’t fun when you are learning stuff.

Well, that’s all about me, what about all of you? What have you been playing lately?

    Well I haven’t finished it completely. Like Hades once you beat it you can just keep going up in difficulty and as you do you keep on unlocking new stuff.

    But I’ve now beat the final boss twice.

    In my opinion it’s better than Hades if you have any interest in co-op. Even playing single player I’m enjoying it more than Hades but I prefer side scrolling games over top down. And I feel like astral ascent has more depth to it, which makes sense because they cribbed from Hades and improved upon it you know.
