Finished Chapter 3 of Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition. I was trying to do the side missions before going for the story mission but had very high level enemies around, so after trying that for a while, went for the main mission.

Have just started chapter 4. Going to explore and do the side content now.

Also played some Dragon Age: The Veilguard.

Game is progressing well, but I think I'll get tried or bored of it. Just not feeling much enjoyment playing it.

I shared most of my feelings a few back, but one annoying aspect I missed was loot system. Each companion has their own loot, which I find a bit annoying. In DA: Inquisition, I played as fighter, but any non-fighter equipment, or light / medium armor I had, I equipped it to my companions, even heavy armor that I wasn't wearing went to them, same with weapons. But now all that extra loot is useless. Feels very restrictive in an RPG, and it made me lose interest in loot quickly enough.

Well, that's about me, what about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?

Playing Xenoblade X!

Finished Chapter 6.

Got two Skells so far, the one that you get for free after getting the pilot license, and another from the "New Skell on the Block" mission... but that's only because I need to get to Level 30 before I can buy more of them. I've got something like 3.5M sitting in the bank due to all the passive income from FrontierNav so I'm ready to spend big bucks into buying+upgrading mechs once I get there.

Have been focusing mostly on Primordia and Oblivia, though I also got some reasonable progress exploring the goddamn labyrinth called Noctilum. I took a quick trip to Sylvalum and Cauldros but only unlocked a fast travel point on each to make life easier, haven't really started exploring those yet.

Currently doing sidequests and leveling up, will probably move on with the story once I get everyone past 30. Might try to unlock a few more characters too, I there's 2 or 3 available and just waiting for me to do their recruitment mission.
