Still playing a bit of Against the Storm, which I still like the gameplay loop of but it's a bit of a timethief. I've closed 2 seals, but am realising that you probably need to complete a few cycles of just collecting resources for upgrades, which is just so daunting in terms of a time commitment.

Since then, my friends have wanted to get back into playing some multiplayer games together again, so I've jumped into The Finals, which I think is pretty damn fun for a F2P Nexon game. They've also picked up Lethal Company, but I was away on the weekend so I'll likely boot that up this week for the first time.

Also got even more back on my roguelite bullshit last night as I got into Death Must Die. Definitely enjoying it so far and can see why every review says "it's a mix of Vampire Survivors, Hades and Diablo", but can also see why every review says the character dialogue is a bit cringe.

Lastly, we got the switch plugged back in because we played some Mario Party at Christmas to kill some time in the afternoon and avoid any boring as fuck conversations with the in-laws. Since then, Mario Kart has been in the console and I haven't bothered changing carts, so I've played a bit more to try and get good again after not playing it for 3 years and make sure i've got all the 3-star trophies on 150cc.

Probably only really looking forward to Like a Dragon in the immediate future, but i still have to beat the last mainline one because I dropped off like 2/3 of the way through. And yes, I know Kiryu shows up.
