Pretty much only played Greedfall last week. Game is going good, not much to add about it.

One thing that I didn't mention before, and that shows it's "AA" or low budget is that interior of the buildings is same. For instance, the governer's building is same from inside for all factions. Exactly the same. Same goes for our house in all the cities. Not a big deal tbh, but something I noticed. Doesn't effect the gameplay, or the narrative, which is fun.

Playing a bit of Earthlock but going to focus on it this week, in hope of finishing it this week. Will only get Zelda after I have finished this. Otherwise I won't play it for couple of months and then won't want to get back to it.

Didn't play Trails in the Sky: Second Chapter this week. It has been demoted to a side game when I have nothing else to play, as I want to finish both Greedfall and Earthlock first. Once they are finished will switch it to primary game, cause I want to give it proper focus it deserves. Well, maybe after Legend of Zelda.

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

I may have made a huge mistake.

I started playing Civ 5. I bought it a long time ago when the whole package was 90% off and finally decided to play it. And that's all I did. I knew this wasn't going to be a casual experience. I played Civ 3 when it was the most recent game in the series my old Laptop was able to play and the SNES version of Civ 1 a couple of years later (because apparently, I only play the odd-numbered ones). I knew the risks.

But I also have a bunch of vacation days to use up, so I took a week off from work to just let this happen. Get it out of my system and hopefully move on from there. Don't bother holding my beer, it'll be stale by the time I come back out of this rabbit hole.

Haha, you took a big risk. I have stayed away from Civilization games for a while because of this, once you start them, things can get out of control.

I have been getting slight itch for them again though, specially with the trailers for 7. Though I am keeping myself in check for now, but plan to give 7 a try when it launches.
