Mostly Final Fantasy VII Rebirth. Feels like this game took half a step forward and two steps back, compared to the first part. It tries to do a lot of things and doesn't do many well. There's minigames-ish for so many things. The open-world stuff kinda tries to be Assassin's Creed lite, but all zones are huge, but pretty empty, with the same two types of "events" in them (go somewhere or fight). Of course, the game has a shitty crafting system, so you can pick up material in the empty zones. Combat is a bit better than before, but then the devs managed to craft the perfect enemies to make some fights feel like hell, even worse than the worst fights in Remake, and I'm not even done with the game yet. I've played the game for 40 hours, but the story has barely moved. I think there's supposed to be an alternate timeline, but I think I've seen like five minutes of it. It's been pretty disappointing so far, but I still like the characters, so I'll continue playing.
Then a bit Baldur's Gate 3. Started another run, going with pretty much the same party build as my first run, where I almost made it. The full fighter playthrough has to wait for the next Patch.
