As we enter the second to last week of January, we have another week packed to the brim full of new releases. The major release of this week allows you to walk around in 2016 km² of a mediaeval fantasy world with five different regions for some MMORPG action. This is followed by some 4X Roman strategy, a trip to Norse mythology hell or pretending to be one of King Arthur's knights. This is followed by a remake of another JPRG from a famous franchise and we end the week with an anime inspired PvP shooter.

RPG set in Arthurian britain sounded excellent but it looks like a hyper-generic action RPG.

I'm more exited about the early access of Tokyo Xtreme Racer. Apart of the mobile games it is 18 1/2 years ago since the last installment of this series was released.

"Synduality" sounded familiar so I checked and it was in my Ignore list. Not surprising since it has the double treat: EAC + Bandai Namco's piece of garbage EULA.

Let me apologize. It has been a stressful weekend in terms of PC enjoyment. I guess I should have known since I bought it on Friday lol.
