Started playing Valhalla again and am surprised by one of the better story arcs. Was not expecting such level of storytelling in an AC game.

GD 03-13-2021 07:27 AM

Completed Valhalla and was relatively satisfied with the ending. Thanks Seph :y:

Looks like I'll be playing WWE 2K19 for a few days before I move on to these options

1. Ghost of Tsushima (might save this for when I return to America and have a difficult first week)
2. Resident Evil 7
3. Red Dead Redemption 2 (Seems like quite an undertaking at the moment...too much happening irl)

ClockShot 03-22-2021 06:15 PM

Finished Control.

Damn. What a great game. Almost perfect. If anybody on the Playstation grabbed this when it was free, recommend playing it.

M-A-G 03-23-2021 09:11 AM

Finished New Super Mario Bros. U on the Switch. Definitely filled that hole for classic platforming and I like that I can pick Luigi as the main. I'll probably go through it again for the Star Coins but it was fun overall.

drave 03-23-2021 09:20 AM

Picked up the FF X / FFX-2 Remaster for $20.


God damnit I love FF X. Never played X-2, but I'll give it a go.

OssMan 03-28-2021 10:01 AM

I do want to play ffx2 eventually, I stopped years ago at the part where you have to give rikku a massage as yuna

Playing xenosaga very sparingly, should finish in 2023

Just started metroid prime 2 after saying i would start it "soonish" when i beat the first one in 2010

drave 03-29-2021 07:43 AM

Played Destiny 2 again over the weekend. It is sooooooooooooooooo good on Series X. Ridiculously smooth. Gunplay is as great as ever.

Sepholio 03-29-2021 03:31 PM

Finally, FINALLY getting around to Nier: Automata. I hope this is as good as everyone says. Combat reminds me of a way more refined crosscode at this point. It's different and engaging. Hope there is more to it.

Sepholio 03-29-2021 03:33 PM

Beat the campaigns of Torchlight 3 and Star Wars: Squadrons last week too. God I love gamespass lol.

Fucking pissed tat I got sick when I did. I was on track to unlock the badass season of the hunt armor ornaments. Now its too late.

drave 03-29-2021 05:03 PM

:( Damn bro.


If you wanna pew pew in the space opera setting, hit me up man. Think the only thing that usually gets me from playing with you and Berg is the 2 hr time difference.

Fignuts 03-29-2021 05:08 PM

Im still a long ways from logging back in. Hands are still weak and the right one has nerve damage thats going to take time to repair.

Destor 03-29-2021 05:23 PM

thats shit. do you like turn based games? seems like a handicapable* way to get some gaming in while you rehab


*i couldnt think of another term and im sorry

Fignuts 03-29-2021 06:10 PM

I've got firepro for my gaming fix, for now.

I also have Stellaris which I could probably play.

Emperor Smeat 03-29-2021 11:26 PM

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World (Switch)
Minecraft (Xbox One)

Been playing Scott Pilgrim in small chunks here and there since buying it a couple weeks ago.

Minecraft is mostly to chill out and work on building a small town with a wrestling stadium that I sort of promised my nephew I was going to have done weeks ago.

Ah fuck. Still hit me up if you feel like it dude. Always down to "shoot the shit" too.


Dogespeed with your recovery man. I'll say it again, I am happy to see you alive and posting and stuff.:wave:

ClockShot 04-02-2021 03:46 PM

Picked up Outriders. But I'm probably not going to get fully into it until sometime this weekend.

Destor 04-02-2021 07:02 PM

Disco Elysium

Sepholio 04-03-2021 12:01 AM

When you get further into it I'd like a Destor analysis of the game plz. I am interested in the premise of this game but dunno if the gameplay itself is gonna be deep enough to keep me hooked. We seem to like a lot of the same types of games so I think your feelings on will be a good indicator of where I would be.

Angry I don't get Outriders on PC Gamepass and haven't been able to score a Series X still.

its game play is a point and click visual novel with deep leveling mechanics. there is no combat. least not that you directly control.



you choose what your character interacts with. based on your stats, skills and passives skill checks are performed that determine your available actions and responses and the success chance of both.



the game is expertly written juggling madness and deep dives into sociology and geopolitics. its one of the most unique games ive ever played and being very early in i can already see why it took rpg of th year and that i will be playing multiple times.


do i reccomend it? i dunno. its really out there and not having traditional combat is going to turn a lot of people off.

Lego Batman 2: GOAT

I just absolutely love it. Favorite
villain in the first act. Greatness.

Started this and put a few hours into it. Having a fun time with it. It definitely sets itself apart from the other looter shooters out there.

I do recommend doing a bit of research before you play. Once you pick your class, you really gotta play as that class or you're not getting far.

drave 04-05-2021 08:54 AM

Yeah, its a fucking blast though. Started 3 of 4 classes, and stuck with the tanky one, can't remember what it's called.


Super fucking strong though. Hold up Deflect bullets for 8 seconds, unleash hell on everything on screen. Think I'm level 15 or something like that, definitely fun.


Will have to see how the "end game loot grind" is though. That's where these types of games are made...

drave 04-05-2021 09:04 AM

REALLY like the aggressive style of the game though. I have to break my "hide behind cover" mentality from The Division 2 that's been ingrained in my head for a couple years. DEFINITELY shines the more aggressive you are. Cannot recall the amount of times I've been on the brink of death just to get a multikill and instaheal back to 100%.


it is vital to know how your class heals, each of them have specific requirements which kinda force-teaches you how to play the class.

ClockShot 04-05-2021 05:16 PM

Yeah. I was gonna go with the Devastator. Instead I rolled out a Pyromancer and holding my own.

Also like the World Tier settings. Had to turn off auto level or I'd get my ass handed to me. Currently set at 4. Probably kick it up another notch or two once I get some primo gear.

drave 04-06-2021 08:09 AM

I still have auto-tier on and I'm currently on 6.


Devastator is fucking OP man. I've heard Technomancer is also very good, but I typically like the in-your-face smash style of playing.

rez 04-06-2021 10:21 PM

Resident Evil 7 Biohazard. It's freakeh

Curtis 04-06-2021 10:24 PM

Baldur's Gate III.

Game I was waiting for since like 2000 when Baldurs Gate II came out. Was worried that it was going to suck, like what the team did with Pillars of Eternity, but it was handed over to Larian. I did play Divinity Original Sin but couldn't get into the combat.
Now that I finally got a desktop PC that can run it, it is absolutely amazing. Having a blast. Downloaded it and played for 2 hours and thought I was only playing around 40 mins. Deff worthy of the Baldur's Gate name, and its only in early access. Early access is often early ASSess, but, I would recommend anyone of the fence with this one title to pick it up.
Gonna have no energy for my shift tomorrow because Im staying up late playing Vidya like it's High School in 2002.

rez 04-06-2021 10:40 PM

ahhh forgot about BG3 lol. doh I need to get on that.

No rush, its still early access, but if you liked the other Baldur's game games on PC, it will most certainly be an awesome game to play. The only thing I dont like is the change from real time with pause to turn based combat, but I can deal with that.

rez 04-06-2021 11:41 PM

played em on PC and PS2. Were you a fan of Never Winter Nights, Divinity, Icewind Dale, Swordcoast, etc. etc?

OssMan 04-07-2021 04:01 AM

super mario world. never beat it

GD 04-07-2021 04:35 AM

Going to take a break from playing video games. Tried to get into the Resident Evil 2 remake but gave up very quickly.

Yes, played Neverwinter Nights, beat it with all the expansions. Enjoyed Neverwinter Nights 2 as well. Played but never finished Divine Divinity, played the crap out of Icewind Dale 1 back in the days
