Finally got Blue Prince up and going. Didn't really like it at first, but after the fourth in-game day or so, I started enjoying it.

Also, playing the new next-gen remaster of The Lord of the Rings: War in the North with a friend. It's pretty mindless hack-and-slash, but it's fun.

    Blue Prince definitely takes a while to hook you. I can think of a couple of somewhat early "wow" moments that tend to do it for people. Are you taking physical notes? Note taking was like half the fun for me, haha.

    What an amazing game it is, duking it out with Disco Elysium for my favourite of all time.

    Big Disco fan myself. Currently taking screenshots and jotting on them if needed. Whipping out the ol moleskine and drafting pencil certainly seems thematic, so maybe I should start doing that.

    I did both, and definitely recommend doing so. It's a very rewarding game for note taking, and also writing things down with pen and paper helps you remember better. And it's just kind of pleasant to write physical notes, as well as flipping through notebook pages to check something. It definitely enhanced the experience for me.
