Not much of a difference from last week. Didn't really get much play time, and what I did, spent pretty much all on Phoenix Wright.

Still playing Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Trials and Tribulations .

Just started the 5th case, which is apparently the last one. Loved all the cases till now, and the last one seems to be a great conclusion.

3rd case was really fun, at least the beginning.

spoiler

Also, I really hate Dahlia now.

Dropped Just Cause 3.

Liberated the first province, and most of the second province, but the difficulty level of remaining bases increased a lot. Many elite level enemies and lot more enemies. Doesn't make the game too difficult, but I was just playing it for mindless blowing up stuff, so when I couldn't do that anymore, didn't want to continue playing it.

Should just get EDF for this mindless killing stuff.

Started Dragon Age: The Veilguard.

I wasn't planning to start it anytime soon, dunno why I did.

I am only about 4-5 hours in, and for now it feels "Dragon Age" to me. Maybe it will change when I play more, but the level design and characters interaction etc. feel similar to Inquisition. Character models and visual styles are of course different, as well as combat, but playing the game feel like I am playing a sequel to Inquisition, not some other random game.

Plan to keep playing it as a secondary game.

On a separate note, Xenoblade Chronicles X got preloaded! Can't wait for the release!

That's all on my end. Unless I forgot some game again. What about all you? What have you been playing?

I plan to continue with God of War (PS4).

For a game that is rated 18+ I've not actually had many moments where I've had to stop my kids (10+) from watching me play and they have been enjoying it with me. I'm normally quite careful but the main gameplay is just fighting creatures and puzzle solving so it's just the boss fights that give it a higher rating, well so far that's what it seems.

The story and characters are excellent and the dynamic of Kratos and Atreus is something special. Also it's a really good looking game and much better than the current gens "blurriness" that everything seems to have nowadays

Yeah, there are some cut scenes, and some finishers that are ultra violent (if I am remembering right).

One thing that felt different but I never put my finger on, until I read somewhere, is that game is made like a single shot film, there is no camera cut in whole game. Gives the game a very interesting look and feel.

As a father, some Kratos and Aterus moments can be very touching.
