I got Octopath Traveler 0 for Christmas and have been playing it fanatically. Also playing Marvel Rivals when I need some quick matches before work. Still got a bunch of games on my Steam wishlist but pretty far behind on it all. How about you all, what are you playing into the New Year? Anything you all are waiting for?

DQXI:S w/ harder monsters and low XP from weak monsters. First time I tried it, Dora-in-gray was a stone wall, and I gave up on the game. Yes, it's all recoverable, but I was frustrated AF, after trying again and again, whittling down my gold reserves from respec'ing, crafting, and restoring saves, then getting my ass beat every single time.
This time, I hoarded Ygdrasil(sp) leaves, did a bit of early seed farming, and spec'd the Luminary for greatswords, with Unbridled Blade unlocked before the fight. I pepped everyone, and took her down in 5 turns, using two leaves. Due to planning for Dora the whole time, though, the Tentacular and Elysium bird fights were harder than the first time.
I hadn't played any of the modern Tomb Raider games, though between Steam and GoG, I have them all, mostly from bundles, plus the old ones in ROM sets, if the PC ports are crap. So, I'm starting with the first one (1996), now, and plan to play through most of them, skipping the old remasters.
Shovel Knight. I got it first on the 3DS, and there was one room, early on in the Shovel Knight campaign, I just could not get through, with the DS' controls. The other two were OK. Got through it on the first try, with a proper gamepad, and will finally have finished the game, soon.
