Nioh

I've played most of the original Soulsborne games and this is my first game in the genre not made by Fromsoftware. I'm quite enjoying it! I like the loot approach to gear and the Ki pulse is a great addition. Bosses do feel quite a bit different from Fromsoftware ones, blocking being this strong makes it a lot easier to learn and fight them.

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.

spoiler(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.

I started up a new city in Cities Skylines 2. Trying to build a city mate up of little pit stops along the highway with no industrial zones at all. It's been an interesting experiment so far! The game does track the jobs generated by retail and city services, so if you balance it just right you can have enough work to attract residents and use the highway connections to just barely generate enough sales for the commercial zones to stay profitable. And the city as a whole is getting closer and closer to a positive balance in the budget, so I might just pull this off...

Fallen London. Very big browser game, a little bit unclear where to go for what but fun anyway. Second is brain it on, a little game where you have to solve tasks like: Divide those magnets. I think it really improved my understanding of physics.

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.

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.

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!
