Finished Spider-man 2, completed everything to 100% and got the Platinum. Now playing through main story again in NG+ for a single DLC trophy. Should be done with in a day or so. Haven't decided what to play on PS next, will probably just play some WWE 2K24 as a secondary game or maybe some other small game from my backlog.

Will start focusing on Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout from this weekend. Even with that, it's a pretty long game, so will probably take a while to complete.

After some deliberation I have officially dropped Trails in the Sky: SC, I was enjoying the game (other than when I got stuck at the boss), but remake is launching next year, and I won't be done with the full series before that, so will play that when it launches.

I started Pillars of Eternity on PC, had it in my backlog for a looong time, tried playing on my old PC once but it couldn't run it properly, so finally getting around to playing it. Not going to focus on it, will just play it a bit here and there.

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

I'm starting to get back in the groove after early November has put me in absolutely no mood to be playing anything.

In Echoes of Wisdom, I've beaten the Lava and Ice dungeons. There have been a lot of puzzles lately I feel like I'm solving with jank more than anything. If it works it works, but it doesn't feel as satisfying as BotW/TotK in that regard. There are just too many puzzle pieces in my repertoire. I did learn to hold enemies in place while my summons beat them up. I regularly forget to use Tri at all, let alone offensively!

Today, I explored the Wildlands in Lightning Returns a bit. The size of the area intimidated me at first, but the enemies in the forest give enough EP to let me keep time frozen for as long as I'm there, making this the most relaxed I've ever been in this game.

I have beaten Snowboard Kids and have moved on to Snowboard Kids 2. I've never played the sequel before and while some aspects feel wrong, it's still pretty good. It's a lot easier though, I've already made it to the final race after beating everything before usually first try, sometimes second. The endgame of the first game looked a lot different in that regard! The final one seems to be the one to stump me though, Damien is fast as hell! I've only tried once so far, but I think this one will take a while.

Welcome back, and glad to see you get your groove back!

I agree with having too many puzzle pieces in your repertoire, there are many items that do the same things though, so it's basically which items / method you prefer.

Good luck with Lightning Returns and Snowboard Kids!
