The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition
I've been setting out to complete some very specific things... and along the way I keep finding more distractions! I've ended today's session finally reaching the place I've been aiming to go "next" for a good few days — hours of playtime spent aiming there but coming across something else to do first. And this isn't a complaint!

EXIT: The Game Advent Calendar:
The Silent Storm
December 2nd
A complete damp squib today. The puzzle involves moving and shaking the box to release a part… except in my copy it had already shaken loose (I actually found it yesterday and guessed it was a future puzzle gone wrong, so at least I didn’t have to wait long for the answer). I’m sure it seemed like a very clever idea at the concept stage, but including such a puzzle in a product that’s inevitably going to be shaken around while being transported, delivered, examined, etc, is just inherently ill-conceived. Hopefully the game doesn’t try such things too often or it’s going to wind up a very disappointing month.
