Happy new year guys!๐Ÿ˜€ Just now, it hit midnight here, and it's officially 2025. I was playing Pennon and Battle, and I realized it's the last game I played in 2024!! That gave it a different kind of meaning. Now I'm curious, what was the last game you played in 2024?

Last game I finished was Veilguard. Pretty close to EoY. It wasn't exactly what I wanted, and the difficulty falls off a cliff as a mage when you get life steal, but it wasn't bad. The romance with Neve was entirely too... unromantic, and PG-13 though. Very disappointing. No intimacy.

Then I started CrossCode and it's been good. Feels like a mix of old snes games (Zelda, lufia2) and MMO, without the annoying parts like other players. The puzzles also aren't very hand holdy, which is nice. I feel like a lot of games are too aggressive with their "HEY IT LOOKS LIKE YOU CAN SLIDE THAT BRICK. HEY I BET FIRE MELTS ICE."
