currently playing detroit: become human with my friend (I'm playing, he's watching). It's the third game on our David Cage binge after heavy rain and beyond two sould and it's seems to be the best one so far (we're only half-way through). It actually comes way closer to delivering on the promise of complex branching story lines with meaningful decision making than the previous two. QD definitely came a long way since Heavy Rain, which we found very hard to take seriously

One thing I don't like is how anti-android people are portrayed. The game clearly decided to circumvented the debate around androids being sentient or not, and just painted the anti-android movement as a bunch of angry racists or religious fanatics. There are even clear parallels to actual historical racism - androids having to stand in the back of the bus and such. It would be nice to see some better arguments besides "they took our jobs" type stuff

besides that, I've been playing a lot of EU5 this week. I haven't played since before the version 1.1 due to all the bugs. I'm playing as Novgorod and it's been a lot of fun. Current version (1.2.5) is a big improvement, though there is still a ton of UI jank and the mercs are absolutely insane - I haven't even reached 1600 and many wars in Europe already have WW1 level casualties due to all the mercs everyone's hiring. Thankfully they're reducing the number of mercs for the next patch. I think I'll wait for the next patch and finally try out England
