Hey everybody. Hope you are all doing okay and staying cool during the summer heat. This week I finished my playthrough of the Persona 3 remake. Overall, I enjoyed the game and cast of characters. Unlike Persona 5 (my only prior experience with the series), I liked the life sim stuff over the dunegon crawling, mainly due to Tartarus being very repeatative with sparse enemy variety. I ended up 4 ranks short of maxing out all Social Links, which really irritated me. My one really big gripe is that

I really didn't like that the protagonist dies at the very end. I perfectly understand that it fits the themes of the game about life being fleeting, so you better spend it with the people you love, and the ultimate Persona you can fuse is Messiah, who gave his life to save mankind the way the protagonist does, but it really bummed me out. I guess since ive only played Persona 5 that my expectations were aligned with that game's rather cheery "Its not goodbye, its see you later" ending

Anyway, I am doing a NG+ run to max out all social links. Besides P3, my brother has returned from his vacation, and we have resumed our playthrough of Elden Ring seamless coop. We are nearing the end of the base game, but I am planning on forcing him to buy the DLC to play when we are done with that. I hope everyone has a good week

Everspace 2 mostly, it's hard to believe there was a time when space shooter was a full genre in PC gaming, and it just melted away.

Anyway the game is fun, you fly around and shoot things, there's a story that seems mostly harmless. Not good, but it's mostly out of the way so you can explore the sectors and slowly level up while working toward buying a new ship. It's like a Diablo mixed with a freespace. There's not a huge variety of gear, probably like twelve guns, and 10 missiles. There is some fun gadget abilities to find that give you some neat abilities, like healing or pulling enemies together. Each ship has a unique super move too which is fun.

Mostly just killing time. I finished disco Elysium a few weeks back and that was amazing. I'm trying to build up the energy to commit to another rpg but it's hard to focus that much.
