Trying to figure out the combat system in Batman: Arkham Asylum and Middle-earth: SOW. If I'm reading correctly, it's the same system, but I haven't got a handle on it yet.

Grounded! I spent a bit of time swimming around the Koi pond and it is harrowing but fun if you can escape the diving bell spiders.

I can't believe my favorite pastime MMO, RuneScape, has hit 20 years of existence! Not many MMOs have survived this long. I almost get the urge to play again, but nah.

Still working on Divinity I and working my way through the tutorials for Train Simulator. That could change though, as the latest puzzle in Divinity has me stumped. I also found a mod that converts Stellaris into a Star Trek game. Maybe I'm just paranoid, but I'm not sure I like the Vulcans that close to my borders. I haven't enabled the Federations DLC, so I don't know how that aspect is going to play out.

I'm really loving the train sims. I just got Train Sim World 2. It's a lot more immersive and prettier than Train Simulator 2021, but it's got some strange conventions, like having to move to an object and look directly at it in order to activate the option to use the item. It took me a couple minutes jerking back and forth by the engineer's seat before I figured out that I needed to look down at the seat in order to sit down. And all the controls are like that. Maybe it's because I'm using the XBOX controller instead of the mouse, but the mouse requires a lot of keyboard activity because you roam around in and out of the trains in TSW2. In Train Sim, I can do it all with my mouse. Still, I'm liking it, and looking forward to adding a third train sim in Trainz 12 for $10. I picked up a mega pack of rolling stock and engine DLC for that for a buck, so that should be cool. I popped for the deluxe version of TSW2 in order to get extra DLC, but it was a bit underwhelming. Wise move, nonetheless, as TSW2 DLC costs an arm and a leg.

More train operator training. Train Sim World 2 works better with the mouse than the controller, with some exceptions. I also started Divinity: Original Sin II, as I'm a bit stuck in Original Sin I.
