That's good to hear, I initially assumed Ghost would take my usual 4-6 months to beat, which would lead me right into the Valhalla release in November. Instead I have a 2.5 month window now with no game I'm pumped for in the meantime. A Ghost DLC will deff help.
I'm only about 3 hours into the campaign of The Avengers, but I'm really digging it. I can already tell it has that Marvel gift of narrative, so I expect the story to get better and better. Gameplay is very Square Enix with a bit of combo/button mashing, but it plays a bit to strategic combat much like the Arkham series.
Visually it's absolutely stunning. It's too bad they couldn't use the likenesses we're familiar with in the MCU, but as the characters develop it just kinda seems to settle itself. Cap is still Cap, Tony is still Tony, and so on and so forth.
It's early, but big recommend so far.

Finally finished Trails SC. Hell of a JRPG, that. Good lord was it ever long, though. And apparently I missed a sidequest or three, to boot.
Don't really know what else to say, honestly. If you like JRPGs you'll probably like these games, and they're certainly solid value. Hopefully the quality stays consistent. I would say the one thing that stands out is that everything story-wise actually made sense. As long as that continues I'll keep playing them.

Immortals looks pretty good but I'm not sure what they were thinking with that song choice in the trailer, just awful. The gameplay overview afterwards gave a much better impression.
Never heard of this, and it looks interesting but I was fully expecting it to be a mobile game or some live service junk. Pleasantly surprised to see that it's a single player game, definitely something I'll be keeping an eye on.

Finally finished Ghost of Tsushima and loved every minute of it. My only criticism is that sometimes the combat felt repetitive. I usually got over that immediately though when I managed to slaughter a Mongol leader .
When I first saw the trailer for FFXVI during the Playstation event, I was like "this sure has a lot of FFXIV vibes" and it turns out there's a good reason for that. They have Naoki Yoshida, the Director and Producer of FFXIV as Producer for FFXVI. I have faith that he's gonna keep development for XVI on track.
Aw man that game looks awesome me and my wife rewatch the Harry Potter series every December I may actually be able to get her to pick up a gaming controller for this one
