Whatcha all playing!

Gonna be honest, it's just more shadow of the erdtree for me. Been playing the shit out of it.

Bonus question: any game you got during the steam summer sale you want to shout out?

Persona 3 Reload - I'm not sure whether I like it or not just yet tbh. I'm about 20 hours in (or 2 months of "in-game time") and the plot is very slow to unravel.
I don't like turn-based RPGs usually, so combat is a bit of a chore and the exploration of Tartarus is very samey. Social sim aspects have been fine, but I guess I expected a bit more interactivity? I'm not sure. Its been nice to learn more about side characters, albeit ones not present in the "core" team.
The only somewhat similar game I've played before is Fire Emblem: Three Houses and I absolutely loved it, but I was much more interested in the gameplay (T-RPGs are 100% up my alley) and social sim was okay as well.
I think my primary issue with P3R is the setting - which I didn't think would matter so much - I really don't relate to high school life / issues anymore and it's making it hard for me to get into the game...
The OST is absolutely S-tier though (and it has made exploring Tartarus much more bearable!)
