What We Played #640 – Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Skull and Bones & Helldivers 2
thesixthaxis.comIt’s been another cold week, and one that’s proven perfectly suited to wrapping up and playing video games. I’ve been working my way through Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden, and we’ll have the review for that one on Monday. Other than that, there’s been a chunk of Suicide Squad, a heap of Naruto X Boruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm Connections, a spot of Granblue Fantasy Relink, a smidgen of Dave the Diver and a soupçon of Street Fighter 6 as well.

He’s also playing more Baldur’s Gate 3, where he’s in the middle of an at least four-hour-long bit that he completely missed the first time around. Note the lack of the word mediocre in that one…
