Dear friend @Isolte As long as you level up constantly and keep upgrading your weapons should be fine (on the first run). You'll be able to make your guardian spirit stronger from "new game +" onwards. You won't believe how invincible you'll become. Enjoy!
Dear @Isolte Ok. I platiniumed both "Nioh 1" and "Nioh 2" Therefore, please feel free to advise if you need any assistance and/ or companion. I can re-install them and help you. Both great games...
Dear @Isolte Thank you my friend. Grim Dawn is so much fun. Especially in these winter days By the way, "Nioh 2" nothing but pure joy. It is all about progressing step by step (without rushing) and making our warrior stronger and stronger, along with our guardian spirits (thanks to amazing soul cores). By the way, which skill did you chose for your character?
Despite the fact that I have PS+ (essential) subscription until December 2030, I am so happy that I did not waste any money for "PS5" or "PS5 Pro"... Maybe I'll consider PS6 after it is released. Until than, I'll continue to reduce my backlog on Xbox One S, PS4 and PC. No need to rush.
Dear friend @Rog-X souls games are already on xbox. Therefore, it won't " a legendary surprise" if it turns out to be some new souls game. There is nothing surprise about it... (By the way, what is wrong with souls games, for you anyway?)
The reasons why I had to give up the idea of buying xbox series x are
1 - Not enough storage
2 - Expensive and (for me) useless disk driver
I would have (gladly) buy some xbox series x version without disk driver and with at least 2 TB ssd.
But it is too late since 2024. I'll have a look at next generation consol options.
I hope, sony and microbe-soft won't do the same mistakes that they did it in current generation. Fingers crossed.
(Note: The reasons I have not buy PS5 are
Unfortunately, so many amazing games trapped back in previous xbox consoles. If microbe-soft decides to save and enhance them, I am all for it. There is a gigantic treasure lying down in the xbox library.
I got Xbox 360 Halo Reach Limited Edition with 2 controllers which I will never give away... Along with;
Lost Odyssey Halo Anniversary Edition Halo 3 Halo Reach Halo Wars Forza Motorsports 3 Forza Horizon Dead Uprising 2 Off The Record Metal Gear Solid HD Collection Gears of War Gears of War 2 Gears of War 3 Fable II Nighty Nine Nights Kinect Rush Dark Souls Kingdom Under Fire, Circle of Doom and many more as in disk format...
"My Favourite Memory" of this generation is not to buy any new console. No "xbox series x" , No "xbox series s", No "ps5". I played the games on "PC", "xbox one s" and "ps4"... I was waiting to buy "xbox series x - enhanced edition" with 2 TB ssd and no disk driver which is never released, maybe until recently. But as you know, it is too late now. We are not far from next generation consoles. I prefer to wait for new xbox. Not gonna buy any recent generation. It is just too late, besides, my 3,5 years of game pass subscription expired. So... I may renew my subscription if I buy a next generation console. Until then, I am good wih my PC.
It is kind'a too late, I guess. Cause my hype is already died around last year... Sorry... But I'll be very happy to hear it is (turns out to be) a good game. There are always place for good games in our world.
Unfortunately, I am playing Code Vein with a constant agony.
Only 2 more achievements left for platinium.
I did not know that this game is so bad and boring.
Unfortunately I am on NG+5 because game has a despicable glich that does not give you "good ending" trophy on NG+1
I had to unlock the "Dweller in the Dark" tropy on NG+4
Probably, this is the worst game I experienced since Mid-90's.
I will get the remaining trophies and start to enjoying my life again. Fingers crossed...
Back then, I had to travel to Istanbul in order to buy one. It was well worth for the trouble. My friends thrilled with Halo: Combat Evolved, Jade Empire, Halo 2, Cold Fear, Ninja Gaiden Black, Forza Motorsport, Conker Live Reloaded, Burnout 3 Takedown, Dead or Alive, Far Cry Instincts and many others...
I still keeping my Xbox in my room along with the game disks... I'll never give it away...
I'll wait and see the next gen...
I was (waiting) to buy diskless version of xbox series x with 2 TB storage which (as you know) never released. Therefore, I skip it alltogether and wait for next gen.
...
To be honest, recent generation was (probably) the biggest disappoinment (both on sony and microbe-soft, side) for me...
I am happy that I wasted literraly nothing on current gen. Such a letdown...
When you call comething starting with "Series" you imply that "There is more to come"... Meaning, microbesoft saying "Please continue to watch us, because there will be more consoles in future under the Xbox Series .... brand"... But sadly, we hear more and more everyday that microbesoft trying to make a U turn.
Dear friend @ZYDIO I am truly so sorry... I hope you can recover as soon as possible... Please kindly share the good news when you are fully recovered. Those poisonous catelpillar hairs are awful... Get soon well...
I still have;
Xbox
Xbox 360 "Halo Reach" Limited Edition
Xbox One S
all reliable and (after all those years) still working without any issue...
I am happy to have them and not planning to sell any...
I bought Xbox without a second thought. Despite that it was significanty more expensive than PS2, I bought it without any regret, because of "Halo 2" , "Jade Empire" "BurnOut 3" and also the hardware superiority to PS2. I still have it in my room and never gonna sell it.
Dear friend @Nintendo4Sonic I gladly bought "Hi-Fi Rush" right after my gamepass ultimate subscription expired. Can not be more happy... It is sickening to see, microbe-soft rewarding bobby kotick(s) and punish, good & hard working developers
I (gladly & immediately) bought "Hi-Fi Rush" as soon after my gamepass ultimate subscription expired. It is a game exactly what xbox and gamepass needed for a long time. It is sickening to see creatures like bobby kotick rewarded and on the other hand, hard working, good developers are punished. It is undefensible... Shame on you...
I always enjoying to play old xbox games on newer xbox consoles with higher resolution and with smoother frame-rates. I also appreciate the effort, when I am playing these preserved games. Much appreciated...
