I finished Hogwarts legacy after completing a good chunk of the extra content (only missing one sidequest due to a bug as a locker on a cage is no longer there as I have been on that spot and opened it before). I really enjoyed my time with it altough I could not say is w masterpiece on both dialogue and RPG mechanics. In the end the combat is quite fun and stepping into the school a dream come true.
Finished 0, Kiwami 1 and Kiwami 2 back-to-back(-to-back?).
Man, great games. A little frustrating if you try to complete all of the susbstories but really really fun. A great time.
I'll take a braeak now, and will play Wo Long before going back to Yakuza 3.
Beat the story on Mortal Kombat 11 both the main story and Aftermath. I have got to say the story was not bad at all. One of the best MK stories I have seen in a long time. Definitely worth a playthrough in my opinion. Going to be interesting to see where the series goes now.

There are two elements that stand out in this game, the 3D platforming and the story. The platforming is intuitive and fun but there is enough frustration to avoid the plethora of optional challenges. The frustration is due to the floaty physics and narrow surfaces, mostly while climbing. The story was good enough to keep me interested until the end and both the main character Faith and Icarus are likeable, with the typical moody supporting characters added to the mix. The voice acting is good.
The graphics are perfect for the gameplay and there is decent ambient music. The core of the game is the platforming but there is a lot of forced combat and combat in this game is almost a failure although it's full of good ideas like dodging and damaging while running. The problem is when you have to kill the enemies.
This is the only game I've played where I have died because the floor wasn't rendered after getting out of a loading scene (elevator). This is also the only game where the lighting failed to exist repeatedly, making it impossible to see anything. It's annoying but you just restart the game and the frequent checkpoints bring you back to the same point.
I liked it and I recommend it for a quick playthrough as part of Game Pass Ultimate. I will play the first game as well.
The best beat 'em up I've played. What I loved the most is that the slower gameplay let me learn the combat mechanics, evade and counterattack. It also has multiple difficulty levels to make it more challenging and, as usual, different fighting styles for each character, including an additional unlockable character when you beat the game. I also liked Battletoads (2020) but that has frustrating difficulty spikes and this doesn't. Compared to Streets of Rage 4, I found Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge more enjoyable, more balanced, with better music, graphics, enemies and combat. It's really replayable and fun. The graphics and soundtrack are great so there's nothing to complain about. Highly recommended.
Congratulations, Tribute Games. Thank you for this game.
@Banjo- lol sorry about that. Honestly, it felt forgettable compared to 1 and 3. I did put the game on human since I didn't feel like punishing myself the way I did with 1 and 3, and I'm kind of regretting it. It was alot of backtracking for the most part in a different sense( i don't want to spoil why). Combat didn't feel as fluid as 3. It looked good, but definitely a weaker entry imo. I've heard 5 is the best though, so one day soon I'll try it.
Side note, what's up with that one DMC that isn't number but definitely isn't the first in the series? Perhaps a remake?
@NintendoByNature Thanks! It's a reboot by Ninja Theory, it's called DmC: Devil May Cry. I haven't played any yet but they are on every sale so I'll get them eventually. I've also heard that 5 is awesome. So you haven't played 2?
@Banjo- good to know. I'll add DmC to the list then. I've heard 2 is absolutely terrible so I see no reason to play it. People say it's laughable how bad it is.
Wo Long Dynasty. Loved the game but the difficulty spike at the start made no sense to me. First boss in the game was harder than the last boss and Lu Bu was harder than both of them. Nice to get a Nioh type game on the X though. Hope the Dlc is good when it comes.
@NintendoByNature DmC by ninja theory was hated by the community in similar faction as metroid other M (same Dev actually lol) because of the changes to Dante and a bit to the gameplay too i believe. As someone that never play the series I more recently heard that it is still enjoyable
Bugsnax as it is leaving GP by the end of next week. Cannot say I found it that enjoyable either in terms of gameplay, characters or story. And special Kudos to the music that it was specially annoying... At first I thought it was going to be a fairly easy 1000 gamerscore but after a few hours I decided to just finish the story and move on (back to ghostwire Tokyo which I am surprisingly into)
