Another big fan of infinifactory here. I completely agree with dema, I'm not normally a perfectionist but this game brings it out. Especially when you notice your stats are running behind those of others on your friends list (cough, Al). Even without ultra efficiency though, it still gives you an incredible sense of accomplishment just by getting everything to work properly and to produce each item correctly. I admit I did only get half way through before getting distracted by some other game, but it's something I want to finish.

That sounds interesting, I think I shall look out for it on the next sale.
Had good fun with Manufactoria back in the day.

I quit Infinifactory on the level where you need to make spaceships on a production line. I'll go back to it one day, but it really screwed my head.

I jumped on Witcher 3 and Shadows of Mordor this year. But I forgot Firewatch! Which is what I really wanted.
Oh well.
Now I just have to start the Witcher 2 :erm:

I got Witcher 3 on GOG for the same price. Similarly I got a short way in Witcher 2 before starting 3. For some reason the awkward movement put me off. I was also annoyed by QTEs in fist fights.

There is definitely something 'off' about Witcher 2, and I can't seem to place my finger on it. It's possibly the lack of an immediate through-line, because while the environments are beautifully realised and there's layers of detail to the world and its characters, the main event that kicks off the plot seems to have little direct or imminent consequences to Geralt, who remains an itinerant monster slayer taking on a boat-load of filler quests.
There's no urgency in him needing to clear his name that comes through, as the game seems focused mostly on the political machinations of massively annoying people instead. I just started Chapter 2, and while I didn't mind the preceding chapter, there's nothing really urging me to find out what happens next. I do want to get it out of the way so I can get to Witcher 3, but I've heard so many good things about TW2, I hope the meat of it is yet to come.

While staying as spoiler free as possible, I really hope you sided with Iorveth. It makes for a much better chapter 2.
