I am back! (hopefully) with properly scheduled weekly thread.

Not much change from what I mentioned in last thread couple of days ago.

Still playing Sniper Elite 4, I think I am about 60-70% done. And got back into Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 1 after taking a break over the holidays.

What about all of you? What have you been playing?

And while we are at it, what are your new year's gaming resolution? Play more games? Play less games? Don't pre-order? Always pre-order?

I don't have anything as big as resolution, but I have been meaning to focus on older (J)RPGs from my wishlist / backlog that I haven't had time for. So, unless something changes, I am planning to go to my "patient gamer" roots and ignore (most of the) new stuff.

In spite of getting new stuff, I've mostly been playing Warframe and Honkai Star Rail still. The latter is 100% grinding at this point. Too many characters needing their traces upgraded. Warframe I'm mostly trying to unlock the map, but I've also been building things and leveling them too.

I will say I've been playing Warframe mostly on PS5 and PC, but the Switch version is solid, if the graphics are cranked way down. Now that it has screws save, I'm way more interested.

What I should get playing is one of the four things I got for Christmas, Scarlet Nexux, FF XVI, Horizon Forbidden West, or Division 2. Might be playing more of the first today.

Ah, good to know about grinding in Honkai Star Rail, it means I can forget about it now.

I have heard mixed things about Scarlet Nexus, would love to hear your thoughts on it, once you have played a little.

Yeah, I figured it was coming, but it isn't bad for just some mindless battles. I think I'd have puttered out one way or another about now anyway.

Getting there with Warframe too.

I've read reviews where they mention the plot is ehh, but combat is good. That's the vibe thus far.
