The drastic increase in difficulty between the deep roads & the rest of DA:I is nuts. Was easier to take down some of the dragons than it is to clear out the mid & upper tier enemies.
I'm playing "Quietly install Solitaire on your office PC" with the version from https://microsoft-solitaire.com/ and I hope my administrator won't notice that. While at home I play Monster Hunter World lately.
Wut wut https://www.pcgamer.com/steam-sale-dates/ I'm gonna be broke again.
I borrowed my cousin's Wii to fix the disc drive and play Xenoblade Chronicles, and had to stop and order some Component cables since playing the Wii with Composite cables on an HDTV looks terrible, especially with how the resolution kept shifting. It looks a lot more jagged now at 480p, but at least it no longer looks like I smeared Vaseline all over the screen.
Playing Madden 18 "Longshot" which is a weird change of pace for a Madden game. I kinda dig it thus far.

Picked up Persona 5. Was kinda skeptical at first but I've really enjoyed it so far. Seems kinda weird though that there's like 9 relationship options but not a single one directly impacts the main story. Apparently that's pretty standard with the rest of the series though so maybe it's just a studio thing. Doesn’t make it feel any less half-assed though.

Clue (not as much currently as the game has been broken since the last update)
"There's magic in the sound of analog audio." - CNET.
I think that is less half-assed and more that the conflicts they are dealing with operate on a scale not particularly impacted by a teenager's love life.

That being said, getting to the point of Romance means that you've maxed out a Social Link/Confidant, which does have some small story effect in Persona games, whether that maxing out was as friends or lovers, but the effect is the same either way and doesn't really have much actual impact on the main story (not counting the ones that max out automatically, which is just part of the story). It's possible that Persona 5 Royal may add on some major (optional) story beats if you max out certain Confidants like Persona 3 Portable and Persona 4 Golden did, though.

I meant half assed in the sense that the romance aspect of the game just kind of ... exists without serving any real purpose or bringing any unique in game benefit that wouldn’t of been acquired regardless. The game itself doesn’t even acknowledge the relationship exists except in optional interactions with that specific character which just seems odd to me. Given the plot I’d never expect romance to be a major plot point but I think some additional/alternate scenes and interactions could’ve helped tie everything together better to make it seem like it at least has some sort of impact. I guess what I’m saying is that, to me, it just feels incomplete. Does that make sense?
