I'm early on in Animal Well and enjoying it so far...
...but I keep ending up playing Divinity: Original Sin instead. It's extremely combat heavy and the swings in damage are way too wide, but it's still a lot of fun.
Besides those, I've been playing V Rising in co-op with a friend or two, and man, that game's combat is satisfying. Unfortunately, the upgrade paths end up with some weird recursive loops. I need stone dust in order to make whetstone in order to make a grinder that can create stone dust. Otherwise I guess I'm just supposed to find it, but the game doesn't instruct me as to what drops it? It's a strange choice, and I don't think the game is better off for it, but I am really enjoying the game.
