I went ahead and bought a bunch of indie games, picked up Darkchaser, Oxygen Not Included, and UFO50, and also grabbed Cities: Skylines. Got used to the launch prices of some AAA games, buying these discounted low-priced games really doesn't hurt much.

I did like Fallen Order. It's not particularly challenging for the most part and it being compared to Dark Souls is overblown, but it definitely "gets" Star Wars.

Yeah, I'm a total Souls junkie. My favorite game ever was Bloodborne. I was on like NG+6 when I stopped playing it. That said, I never expect any game to come anywhere close to a Fromsoft Soulslike. There's a reason they're all called Soulslike, IMO; they can imitate, they can't be a Souls game.

I bought it mainly because all my friends won't stop giving me shit for not playing Fallen Order, and it does look interesting.
