New week, new thread! What are you playing?

Continuing Octopath Traveler 1. I finished all chapter 4 stories. Feeling good. Very cool to see that the stories are connected, except H'aanit's final boss which was weird. I wonder if the story behind it would be explained in a side quest? Going for the remaining secret jobs and optional dungeons next. Also need to travel around the towns to finish side quests.
 
I have been in a gaming rut during my vacation, but right at the end of it I started playing Indiana Jones and the Great Circle.

What a great game! There are obvious immersive sim aspects in the first real hub with multiple paths, disguises, non-hostile mixed with hostile areas, and plenty of power gaming possibilities.

The first person graphics are some of the best I have ever seen, and you really get a chance to dwell on how good the environments look when you are slowly sneaking around, solving puzzles and trying to find hidden areas. Ultrawide resolutions are supported really well.

I wish that I had discovered the game earlier, because I am not sure how much time I will have to play when I go back to work tomorrow.
 
Recently started Mina the Hollower. I knew the game would be hard, but I am seeing many more deaths than I would have liked. I guess getting older+less gaming time has it's effects, because I am quite sure some of these deaths are quite avoidable if my reflexes were just a tiny bit better...

Ah well, this all good fun so far.

Otherwise I have ongoing playthroughs Yakuza Ishin and Torna - the golden country going, but those are on the backburner for now. That and Coral Island whenever I want more chill gaming time
