It's Saturday again! I keep missing Friday...

Still playing Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Future Redeemed.

XC 3 is one of my favourite games, and it's so great to be back in that world. One thing I didn't realise was the timeline where the game takes place.

About 20 hours in, and story-vise I think I should be getting to the end, but it can still end up taking 10-20 hours.

Started Rise of the Tomb Raider on PS. I played the remake Tomb Raider on PS3, but since I skipped on PS4, didn't get to play the sequels, now finally gotten around to playing it.

I am really surprised at how well the game plays. The game doesn't feel aged at all, general game play, combat, puzzles, everything. Of course, it's possible that it's just me, cause I mostly play older games, but I have also played some latest games in between, like Spider-man 2, so it's not like I don't know how newer games are.

I am not very far into it, as spending most of my time with XC3: Future Redeemed, but I am loving everything I have played so far.

So, what about all you? What have you been playing?

How is the newest OMD? I liked the old stuff but I'm wary of putting down ~$30 to play the same stuff I did ten years ago.

I am enjoying it a great deal. However, I did not play any of the previous iterations, so there is plenty of novelty for me. The trap mechanics are fun, and the Threads add some variety to specific runs, even though there are not that many maps at the moment. I have not had any technical issues, and playing in a friend-from-across-the-pond's lobby worked well.
