Made it through the Steam sale without any new games. I very nearly broke on Dead Cells but the special deal Bundlestars had going on it expired.

I just started playing Persona 5 last night. I'm only three or four hours in but I'm pretty impressed so far. Very stylish!

I still haven't finished it. I should really go back and play the rest some time. It was pretty fun for awhile, but I always try to play a ghost/no kills playthrough first and always end up getting bored. I need to go back through full chaos

I've officially hit Souls burnout. Trudging through DkS3 to get to the DLC I hadn't played yet was such a chore, and I didn't enjoy myself once I'd arrived. Over-familiarity killed the fun.

That's why I always stop before the last boss until all the DLC is released for Souls games. That way I can keep using the same character... I just don't have enough time otherwise.

I'm doing minimal kills but not getting hung up on achievements or being perfect because I don't have time for that sort of gaming anymore.

I wish that I didn't burn myself on Dishonored and finished it like 6-7 times, by the time the DLC came out I slowly crawled through it. Finished D2, had a bugged Non-lethal enemy that locked me out of a Pacify run and never went back to it. :idk:

Haven't played Overwatch in a long time, but Doomfist looks awesome.
Edit: Just played a bunch of random heroes and I'm loving Orisa.

I've been playing the HD remaster of the Crash Bandicoot trilogy with the GF. Going for 100% on the first game. It's hard as duck. They transferred the jump mechanics from the third game and the hit detection boxes are way less forgiving than on the PSX, but I'm still enjoying it a lot.

Doom is awesome. fun to play with so much mobility.
I think they'll end up nerfing Doom in some way. Less shotty damage or longer cool downs.

My wife doesn't know about Crash 1 being more difficult. She's working her way through it anyways. I'll tell her when it (hopefully) gets patched, or if she gets stuck on the rope bridge.

I only played the first one once, I'm not much for replaying most of the time

Torchlight 2 seems able to hold my attention for the bursts I've been playing it in. Fast paced and not too complicated.
