Was still on my TWW2 bullshit, but stopped.
Went into my backlog and found I had a One Piece Dynasty Warriors game from some bundle years back, which is okay. The progression is kind of busted; it's based around defeating (or playing as) certain characters, who appear at fixed points in the story, so later upgrades can only be unlocked later in the campaign, which makes sense. The problem arises when you play the Dream Log mode, where basically anyone can appear at any point. I have unlocked so many random upgrades that I shouldn't have, but fortunately I don't think they make that much of a difference. The special objectives are also kind of frustrating. "Kill the boss of this mission with a special finisher attack" means I have to save it up well in advance, then not use it during the actual boss fight because so far every boss' final phase has invulnerability for like 30+ seconds.
Also played some stuff in TTS with friends: a round of Spirit Island as the Portal Hummingbird and my monthly crusade game of Warhammer 40k where I tabled my opponent (Scattered Supplies is now banned because it's a poorly-designed mission).
I love Warriors games, tbh.
