Still finishing up Saints Row: The Third, then I’ll probably go play some Zachtronics games (currently TIS-100).
Disco Elysium has been tough for me to get through so far. All of the characters are aggressively bad people except maybe for your partner, to the point where I considered putting it down. I still might, but toward the end of my last session, I was starting to see more good than bad. Looking at my Steam friends list, dozens of people have played it, and maybe two finished it, while most of them (including some who are big RPG fans) put it down after a few hours like I’m considering. It’s strange that I never hear about this side of the game and that I only hear the praise it gets.
I’ve also been playing a second playthrough of Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire. I finished my first run, but I finished it in such a way that a lot of the faction quests’ scripting were broken along the way, so it left me with very few quests to finish to attempt to reach max level, so the DLC was stupidly hard, so I just finished the base game and called it a day. But I was curious enough to check it out in turn based mode, and it turns out I liked that way better, so now I’m level 12 on this new playthrough, and we’ll see if I can get that DLC done this time.
I’m on the last continent for Unicorn Overlord right now, and the gameplay is real fun to try and optimize. The story’s dirt simple, but I’m fine with the occasional simple narrative game. I should have probably chosen a more difficult setting though - normal’s not really presented a real challenge yet.
Also, watching Francis John play Subnautica blind made me do another playthrough of that game. Now I’ve got bases setup all over the place.
