Still pushing through It Takes Two with my non-gamer gf. Hopefully will still be my gf after playing more of it, heh. Pretty challenging for those not used to playing.

Will also dip into Deathloop to get first impressions.

Peace!

It Takes Two seems to be the main focus, if I can avoid frustration when my inexperienced gf tries to do something multiple times, heh.

Peace!

Ha just finished Artful Escape, cool game.

@PhileasFragg How long did it take you to finish, I’ve been playing it a while and thought I’d be done by today!

Not excited for this underwhelming collection. This is apparently what happens when one company buys another for a big sum of money.

Well played a bunch and so far boring aF, lol. I’m understanding the play style nuances better but unless it slips into a much higher gear I’ll move on to one of my (many) other games.

Played a bit yesterday and wasn’t engaged with it, almost fell asleep, but will play more today.

Btw — soon to be free via a Netflix subscription, playable on your mobile phone.

Hoping this will hit GP!

I have psn credit that I was going to use, so this doesn’t change anything for me lol.

I’m sure it’s a minor quest so there’s no need for anyone to have a conniption fit!

Looks too frantic for my taste!

Interested but skeptical!

Only interested if it hits Game Pass.

Tell me what you really think! 😑

Watched a few seconds and not for me lol.

Hmm nothing of interest for me.

If true, the (justifiable) animosity towards Sony would grow. I’m going to follow this story.

Sniper Elite 5 for me, although it’s admittedly a flawed game (too generic with annoying environmental travel restrictions).

But anytime you get a chance to kill some fascists, well, it’s a good day in the neighborhood.

🤫

I’m really psyched for this game, please don’t screw it up!

I feel a stirring in my loins!

Cmon MS, impress!

Back to Kingdoms of Amalur plus a smattering of other stuff like Two Point Campus.

Wtf no Kingdoms of Amalur 2?

I’m shocked shocked I say!

Meh not surprised 😕.

Looks like Kingdoms of Amalur Re-Reckoning for me, plus some GamePass stuff.

Enjoy your weekend!

Diablo IV would be extremely sweet!

Hmm I finally broke down and re-upped my GamePass sub, so I’ll be kicking around As Dusk Falls and Sniper Elite 5. Plus a bunch of other stuff, I’m sure.

Be safe, have fun!

Time to take a nap, apparently!

So far I find it interesting but not compelling. Also find the interface to be clumsy. Will push forward a bit more then reappraise.

Have a great weekend amongst the many heatwaves!

Torment has excellent writing, definitely worth checking out.

@TryToBeHopeful Thanks a lot, now I’m going to grind my teeth into dust just thinking about this game lol.

I’m a big tennis fan — been doing a lot of Wimbledon last few days — and his behavior on and off the court (now headed to court) is awful.

I own a PS5 and an Xbox Series X. Buy almost all new games for the Xbox due to better frame rates and system support.

Covid has put a dent in game production but they’re on the way, patience!

I’ll jump back into Diablo Immortal and try to finish the main storyline. Playing for free and it’s been fun.

Currently playing 4, only played pieces of 3 & Vegas. Regardless of your fave, a very cool series!

Diablo Immortal on PC. Fun and light. Maybe too light, I’m feeling the need to jump back into something else soon.

Hmm I waited this long, I can definitely wait for the 4K version!

Yeah I’m playing Diablo Immortal on pc and I agree that it doesn’t feel like a mobile.

However it seems like the dreaded monetization squeeze kicks in heavily around level 32, so I’m concerned about my options when that occurs!

Some folks seem to forget, or acknowledge, that Covid-19 is still wreaking havoc with everything in this world, including gaming.

Does it suck? YES. Are timely game releases important, in the greater scheme of things?

No.

Good review! I came away with a good understanding of the game.

I would love to play Fable 2 GOTY but it looks terrible on a 75” TV. That release needs some love!

This repair protocol is unfriendly and needs to change.

Hogwarts Legacy is my day 1 purchase, assuming that it’s good!

Great to use when games are text heavy and it’s better to play on your computer.

Hmm, so far, my PS5 has been quiet and runs cool.

I’ll need your address and phone number in order to see what’s happening if you’re having issues. However I do have strict beverage and food requirements during a visit so please ensure that you have some credit cards handy, thanks.

Yikes. Another case of a graphically simple game not running well.

@Dusk_Actual So far my pc is stubbornly resisting redemption, but I’ll persevere. Thanks for the good vibes!

Well I managed to blow a few hours by getting caught up in tennis (Miami Open), then set up a new Ipad while simultaneously screwing up a Windows update (by delaying them).

The best moment of irony arrived when I spent even more time trying to apply an expiring Best Buy credit to a cheap game but couldn’t find anything. After midnight had passed I saw that the Nier Replicant remake was on sale, and of course that would have paired well with that now-expired Best Buy reward. I bought it anyway, but proceeded to mentally grumble.

So what did I play today? The game of Life. I’m starting another session tomorrow.

Hogwarts Legacy is the easy day 1 purchase for me!!!

Single player is perfect for me, although local co-op would have been nice. The last time I got this crazy for a game was Dragon Quest XI!

I’m definitely buying Hogwarts day 1, may wait a bit on Starfield. I’ve been waiting for this type of Harry Potter game for a very long time!

Day 1 buy for me! Looks better than expected.

@fabisputza007 Yeah I have that in progress that’s a lot of fun.

This weekend I’ll be playing (reading?) more Disco Elysium, plus Fallout 4.

Peace!
