What are you playing this week? (2023.10.07)
I'm still playing Cocoon, Ragnarok, and Baldur's Gate 3. Didn't get much time last week to advance much, so hopefully I will this week.
What about all of you?

Completed my first playthrough of FF16 last week. Great experience, although not perfect. It's the opposite of FF15 for me: while 15 gradually narrowed down the openness toward the end to achieve a tight narrative finish, FF16 pacing in the final act really faltered. The penultimate boss is generic religious nutjob spouting generic obedient sentiment compared to the previous personal fights. And they bombarded you with too many side quests right before the final fight, which massacred the pacing. So it's not perfect pacing-wise, but with excellent gameplay and characters, overall I still really enjoy this.
Meanwhile, just started the Burning Shores expansion of HFW. Love how "good" it is to explore the world on the PS5, excited for the future sequel.
That's interesting to hear about FF16.
Also, "penultimate" is an interesting word. Don't see it as often as it deserves.
