My partner built a pretty top of the line gaming PC recently to play online with her cousin, a former pro gamer who is still really keen on the competitive gaming scene. So we've been playing lots of hot seat Overwatch with him over the last week.Not a shooter kind of person at all, but I actually really like!
It's aesthetically much more to my tastes than many other celebrated FPS games, the mechanics are super-easy to grasp, and I like that there are lots of heroes that allow you to make a significant impact even if you're not necessarily the best shot. ^^'' I mostly play D.Va, and usually manage to be semi-useful to my team despite my rotten aim because her cannon fire is super-forgiving, and her play is more based around thoughtful use of things like her dash and Defence Matrix. Really fun! ^^''
Have also been replaying Tales of Destiny 2 (the PS2 one) in Korean for practice. The Korean dub is kind of hit and miss, but it's interesting and cool that Namco even put the effort into dubbing the game given that nearly every line in it is voiced, and considering that even huge games like Final Fantasy are rarely dubbed into the language to this day. As for the game, I remember enjoying it tons waaaay back when I first played it in Japanese, but it's showing its age a little now, particularly after putting so many hours into the PS2 remake of the first game. The story gets kind of silly as it goes on, the soundtrack is largely Sakuraba at his most bland and disposable, and while the battles are still fun, some of the mechanics don't really work for me, and spellcasters are massively overpowered to the point where your front line are basically just meat shields. :'D The world map is also sinfully ugly in that low budget, early PS2 3-D game way, which is kind of a shame when the rest of the game has aged so well visually.

Gamefly sent the BioShock Collection, so been playing that, restarted Cyber Sleuth (complete with stream) since I forgot what was going on, still occasionally playing Dark Souls III, still playing Persona 5, still messing about in Xenoverse 2, all the games I need to review, some PlayStation VR stuff, and considering possibly streaming a PSVR run of RE7 since I didn't yet obtain the plat.
