The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition
I was intending to finally finish Critical Role Campaign 4 Episode 6 tonight... but hey, why do anything else when you can play another three hours of Skyrim?

Daggerheart: Curse of Strahd
My second game has begun! Strahd is, of course, one of the more famous Dungeons & Dragons adventures, which is probably why I've seen plenty of people adapting it into Daggerheart — and now I'm in one of those games.

I'm not sure I should really log this — literally all I did was boot it up, see what quests I currently had in my journal, realise I wasn't sure which I wanted to pursue next, and quit — but, hey, that took long enough for Steam to register it as 4 minutes of playtime, so... technically I did play it today, I guess... technically.

1x01 Mote of Possibility [2nd watch]
1x02 Who Will You Be?
Can't believe it's well over a week since I watched the first episode on its YouTube preview — feels like it's been just a few days. Time, eh? Anyway, it's probably for the best I've wound up spreading out the other opening episodes (they released the first three all at once, excepting that preview) because from here on out it's one per week. And it's so good, I want to savour it — hence why I rewatched episode one in better quality and didn't go straight on to episode three.

Week 7 begins.
The second game I mentioned last week is about to begin... but hasn't yet, so I guess I'll be properly listing it next week.

Sailed past the 50-hour mark today. Still haven't been to eight out of the ten cities; still haven't started the main quest; still haven't started the... secondary main quest, I guess it is?*
Part of me feels like I should dive in to some of those sometime soon — either actually continue the plot(s), or head off to sightsee. But knowing how much stuff was unlocked when I ended up in one major city (and I need to go back and finish off a bunch of things I started there), I feel like even hitting a single new city will kick off who-knows-how-many more hours of Things To Do, never mind eight of them** (though only three others are classed as "major", plus five smaller ones... but if we're doing that, I need to start thinking about the eight towns, nineteen settlements, four orc strongholds, and dozens of farms, mills, caves, mines, ruins, forts, towers, camps... Yeah, it's a big game.)
This is not a complaint, by-the-way. If I was bored of what I was doing, I could absolutely ditch it and go to those areas. I could do it anyway and just end up with a massive list of active quests. Maybe I will.
Amazing game.
* It seems to me that the civil war is Skyrim's secondary major storyline. It kicks off in the opening/tutorial sequence, just the same as the main quest does, and from what I've read (while finding info but also trying to avoid too many spoilers), it eventually leads to significant world-changing set pieces and intersects majorly with the main storyline in several ways. But my go-to resource, the Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages wiki, list it as 2 of 6 possible Faction Quests (though it does also have a dedicated Quest page), so I dunno.
** And if we do count the civil war as one of a list of 'secondary major quests', there are three more of those I haven't started (and one other I'm in the middle of) and could/would kick off if I explored certain places.
