So, what have you been playing over the last seven days?

I finished Xenoblade Chronicles 3 last week. I thought it was good, not great, having enjoyed the first half of the game a lot more than the second. Really enjoyed the little Xenogears references. I wasn't intending to move right on to the Future Redeemed DLC, but I heard something interesting things about it and decided to give it a shot. Really glad I did; nine hours in I'm already finding it dramatically more enjoyable than the base game.

Before starting that DLC, I was nibbling at Unicorn Overlord and Super Mario Bros. Wonder. I'm running hot and cold on UO, a lot of that having to do with the item management. This might be the most customizable strategy RPG I've ever played, depth and breadth, and the UI/UX is absolutely not up to the task. I ended up dropping Darkest Dungeon for very similar reasons a while back, and I'm hoping that's not where I end up with UO. It's such a pretty game and the strategy is genuinely interesting. Not much to say about Wonder; it's a very impressive, refined product and I'm sure I'll keep coming back to it.
