    What video games have you played recently?

    Last time I think I said I was playing Lies of P, Elden Ring, Sekiro, Hollow Knight and Dark Souls III. Out of these I have finished Lies of P and started NG+, my plan is to get all achievements, but I haven’t played in a week, I hope to get back to it soon. For the others same thing, but more like 2 weeks without playing.

    Other than that I got the platinum in Die in the Dungeon: Origins. Also, I started a new Bloodborne run and it’s the second time I actually play for real, I basically finished everything in the main game but the final boss. Right now I’m doing the DLC for the first time since on my first run, 4 years ago, I didn’t do it because I heard it was hard and waited until the end to do it, found out the worst way that killing the last boss throws you into NG+ automatically like DS1.

    I’m also giving Chalice Dungeons a proper chance this time, since on my first playthrough I didn’t care about them. I gotta say, they are fun, albeit a bit repetitive, and the worst part is how separate it is from the rest of the game. The way Elden Ring tackled this is infinitely better by having it integrated into the world, it feels like just a detour for exploration instead of a chore like in BB.

    Unfortunately I’m dumb and thought there was 6 depths instead of 5 and ended overleveling because of that, doesn’t help that the dungeons give you a shit ton of echoes, making you think that you need to keep leveling up. Right now I’m Blood Level 112 still on NG and while Dungeons get tough sometimes, the DLC is challenging, but the bosses are too easy at this level, I just beat Lady Maria first try and felt disappointed because of it. :(

    I’ll have to play again to get the last ending for the platinum, so I’ll probably just stop leveling up and do NG+ on this level and see how hard the DLC is supposed to be since I should be around a good level already for doing it there.

    Cuban indie game, Saviorless, that launched recently looks interesting, I want to give it a try sometime in the future. Other than that, Hades II, No Rest for the Wicked and Elden Ring’s DLC.
