I have continued my Kenshi antics, killing slavers and freeing everyone. I have most of the UC slave farms down now and finally finished my "I got the Phoenix" world tour and handed him to the Shek.

Also bashed through a lot of Jump Space with friends. 4p co-op mission-based PvE space FPS, think Deep Rock on a ship. Love it. Incredible pacing, honest. Could use some player progression, but I'm assuming that's just the early-access-ness. If this is all that ever comes of it, I'll still have gotten my money's worth and would just think of it as a bit repetitive on the content. But fun as hell.

Tried Arc Raiders. Absolutely furious about it. Gamers suck. Thought this could be a learning moment for them since all meaningful loot comes from not-other-players, so the PvPvE should really lead to mostly PvE play and freeform team-ups, but gamers are gamers and deserve the gulag. It's just another Tarkov; most players are pieces of shit. (Note: I have not gotten good, but the moral judgement stands.)

I finally beat Black Mesa. The Gonarch can throw ~~hands~~ eggsacks. Once out of that I breezed through the rest of Xen. The second half basically keeps your health, armor, and gluon gun constantly recharged. It reminds me of the final section of Half-Life 2 where you become death. I'm glad the final boss doesn't do that teleportation nonsense.

As a final note, I want to let the AI programmer for the headcrabs that my hatred comes from a deep place of respect. Not only do they do a significant fraction of damage, but are quick to re-engage. More than a few times I busted out the shotgun so I couldn't miss.
