I'm revisiting [Mia and the Dragon Princess](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1837580/Mia_and_the_Dragon_Princess/) (Proton) this weekend, which I haven't played in a while. It's an FMV game where a barmaid named Mia finds her world turned upside down when a strange woman who bears a striking resemblance to a legendary "Pirate Princess" finds her way to Mia's workplace, followed soon after by a group of thugs, and it turns out that there's more going on than meets the eye!

As you'd expect from this genre, there are various paths through the game, and I want to try to see more of them this week. :smile:

The car looks particularly nice here - is this purely upscaled, or did you use some sort of patch here too?

Splatoon 3 - Haven't touched Salmon Run since the last Big Run. Was able to put up a 154 right away, but I know that gold target isn't actually much. Still can't kill a damn Triumvirate.
