My corporate overlords decided I get some vacation during this time of year, it being the holidays and all that. With some free days on my hands I'm planning to mess around with a couple games.
First up is Millennia a 4X game kinda like Civ. The twist is there are different ages that go off the rails from real history—so you can get a steampunk age or one where aliens invade and stuff like that. I barely touched it when it came out but now, after 7 updates, I figure I will give it a proper try.
Then theres Songs of Conquest, an indie game with amazing pixel art that’s sorta like the old Heroes of Might and Magic games- I might play this with a friend early next year as well.
EDIT: OK im feeling a bit tired so Im just gonna play my current Crusader Kings 3 save till I go 2 bed. Happy Holidays everyone
What are the fine folks on Hexbear playing 
I was almost gonna pick Eternal up but was hesitant about the game size and was waffling, then read a negative review that was basically what you said. The thing I liked about 2016 was that it was mostly just mindless mayhem the entire time. I don't want my mindless mayhem to feel like a chore lol.
