Controller is just fine for our 4-player party. Having played Divinity on PC, I know kb+m will be easier but I didn't think controller was particularly restrictive.

This batch of games feels so incredibly specific for me. I've just got through the bulk of Starfield and I'm looking forwards to playing other games alongside it, so this is the perfect batch to get lost in for the next few weeks!
We got Love Letter: Jabba's Palace to the table! We didn't actually play though as we were busy talking, oops!
Haha I came to post this after doing this at work on a VM.
Our usual players were moving house this week, so they were pretty occupied! I was worried this meant that no games at all this week, but some other friends came round for Bonfire Night, and they brought Cascadia.
I haven't played before, but I have heard of parallels to Calico, and I can see why! I think Cascadia has another layer of gameplay to it that made it a more enjoyable experience for me. Whilst the interactivity was very low (hate drafting being the only way to do anything), it was interesting watching the other players shoot for different objective sets.
Fun time, but took us longer than it should because we kept getting distracted!
Depending on the end user though, it isn't just a band-aid. DLSS can help add new life to aging cards and prolong their life for a user that may not be in a position to drop money on a new card.
Not everyone is coming to the table with the latest hot and fresh systems to hit the most technically demanding games and DLSS helps them get those most out of their rigs.
I love how broken all the civilisations are in CE!
And absolutely love Radlands! A very tightly designed game without much overhead!
A smaller, more focused group this week! This meant Gloomhaven: JOTL again! My partner and I got engaged earlier in the week, so we chatted too much to finish it in one session - so our friends came back on Saturday to finish it off!
It didn't actually take us too long to finish the encounter, so we played a game of Mondo. This is a ridiculous real-time tile laying game in which you're trying to 'close out' biomes on your board. Always good fun and super accessible!
I had a brief panic that I had booked a hotel for the wrong weekend, but I've just checked and I'm okay!
This'll be my first UKGE! Very excited!
Simple games for us this week!
We played Nacho Stack, a small little dexterity game. We manage to stack some of these in some pretty clever ways that made the second phase of remove the cards hilariously difficult. Silly, simple fun!
And then we played a few rounds of Skull to see the evening out!

Just want to chime in as someone that has played both:
Both games have a nostalgic longing for games of the 90s, but that is about the only similarity between them!
Sea of Stars is charming, but I'd say it doesn't hold a candle to Tunic. Still worth checking out as it's on Game Pass, but I just wanted to bring another opinion to the table
