Hey y'all, what have you been playing?

I have been playing quite a bit of lies of p, and I started cocoon as well. Both super solid games. I'm getting my PC back tomorrow so I think I'm going to finally start Alan wake 2 as well!

Diablo 4: Season 2 - Completed the Season Journey thanks to some nice randoms hanging out outside of Duriel's dungeon. That is one thing that I do like about playing D4, there's always someone hanging around somewhere to help you out. And if the end of the first two seasons are anything to go by, I'll definitely be needing those someones towards the end of every season.

Diablo 3: Season 30 - Finished Chapter 1-3. Working on Chapter 4.

Firewatch - I picked up this game on GamePass because I needed a little break before I started a new game plus run of Alan Wake 2 and wanted something that wouldn't take me more than one night. I knew going into this game that it was going to be "solving" a mystery, but I did not expect it to play out the way it did, or it to be such a story driven game. Even starting out in the first 10ish minutes I didn't expect the game to go in the direction that it did. It was a bit of a slow burn (wink wink nudge nudge), but it was a lot of fun, especially since it's one of those games where you come up with a theory of what's going on and then second guess yourself over and over. Plus the whole time I was walking around from objective to objective, I kept having the thought of how cool it would be to just roam around without a looming goal hanging over my head, and lo and behold, after I finished the game, a free roam setting was unlocked.

Alan Wake 2 - Gave in and started a new game plus. This game has got me in a chokehold right now, even with its many, many problems that keep popping up. Kind of wish some more was changed based on the events of the first playthrough, and I'm not a big fan of how they treated ng+ inventory or some gameplay decisions that Remedy made, but I'm still having fun.

When I started, I was super disappointed, because the world was basically empty, except for towns and some of the events. I was hoping it's because I started so late, and I was kinda right. However on the higher difficulties, there are a bunch of people at the different hot spots all over the world, which gives me hope for the new season, that it's not just going to be empty 90% of the time.
