Been playing Crying Suns. This game feels like If FTL: Faster Than Light had listened to too much MCR in high school. It’s good, but you can see it’s maybe too inspired by other things, even if it’s fun. Also GDQ has been pretty bad. A few decent runs.

Carp buckbroke me into trying out No Man’s Sky
Actually, just playing it in preparation for Starfield
Also, finally checked out Deathloop
Despite it being another aesthetically pleasing Arkane game, its core gameplay loop
is just a gimmick that quickly wears thin because it is a “Covid Game”, which means the devs did the bare minimum effort when it came to designing the locations and the way they change during the day.
The AI is so bad that the only real challenge is the other player who can at least plan an ambush (although most just camp out on the rooftops and farm headshots)
The characters are weird and overly quippy. Some are clear retreads of Arkane’s previous work, which makes me question whether they actually wanted to make this game or were they just forced by Zenimax to make an online PvP game in their signature imm-sim style. The locations are designed more like arenas than actual levels you should tread through. I think making an online version of that combat mode from Dunwall Trials might have been a better solution.

Finished my Elden Ring replay. I somehow beat Malenia first try (on my first file she took me hours). Feel like I got a bit lucky on her rng, and was kind of looking forward to grinding the fight for a while. I wish there was an easy way to refight a boss instead of starting a whole new file or ng+.
I also started a DS3 run and am trying to stay Embered the whole time. Only got invaded a couple times but I still have no idea how to do pvp in this game. I always get hit and can't hit anyone. Other people clearly know how to make it work
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
A lot of Ds3 is leading your hits. Sometimes you don't want to be locked on, you never want to be predictable. Don't do the same attack more than a few times in a row or I'll parry you
Running attacks are useful, and so are rolling ones. You can set parries up by blocking but don't bother trying to parry with bigger shields.
If you're a strengthmaxxing grugcel you'll have a hard time hitting anything, but with a good build you'll be hitting like a truck. Try spacing your swings apart so you roll-catch

Finished Jedi Survivor on Grand Master. The game is amazing but it was honestly a miserable experience due to 1) The game crashed way too fricking often and 2) Grand Master difficulty is total bullshit but all my friends were on Grand Master so frick me.
Made me go back and start Sekiro again. We’ll see if I finish this time.

I did beat Fallen Order on Grandmaster, but only on my second playthrough. I only found one healing vial my first time, so that would've been pretty rough.
Was this your first Jedi game, or did you play FO before? I'm not sure if I'll want to start Survivor on GM or not.

I played FO and loved it. Grand Master in Survivor is way harder, the parry timings seem like they have to be frame perfect and every hits incredibly hard. Do yourself a favor and play on Jedi Master. It’s still a challenge but you can actually parry.

Trying to decide if I should try wow again or go back to RuneScape, final trantasy 14 got boring
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
I casually get on to do a few storylines every once in a while on ESO but that’s just an elder scrolls lite experience, not really an mmo.
Wow died once they finally produced the best xpac but still loaded it down with battlepass dogshit. Final nail in the coffin. Everyone left there are just battlepass cucked blizzslaves who purchase plush murlocs from the gear shop and shit still and will never leave due to sunk cost fallacy. Basically the ultimate capeshit soy consoomers.
Runescape is for neets who haven’t washed under their arms since before the pandemic began, and ff14 is for the same category as described above but specifically the
subsection of them. Which is quite large.
Like c’mon, it’s the same people defending ff14 every time

Yeah. I originally built one for my dad who wanted a small machine for perfect dos emulation for old old old stratomatic sports games he still places and mister was recommended. I ended up building one for myself and it’s really phenomenal how 1:1 perfect everything is. Not just video game consoles but the old computer codes are amazing too. The work being done on arcade games makes them indistinguishable from the real thing.
With a modern interface board the entire thing can be powered off usb-c, boots up in seconds and is extremely portable

I've been playing Assetto Corsa, the same as every other week. This week I've been on a Skyline bender:
I've also got a bunch of mods I'm working on that I need to get around to finishing.
On top of that, I've been checking out Age of Wonders 4 after someone here recommended it. I'm having a pretty good time with it, but I'm still only about 40 turns into my first game. I made a race of kitties!
Of course it's the end-game that's make-or-break for these games so I'll see how it goes.
Additionally, I played a little Deep Rock Galactic with a friend. It's neat, but I can't see myself becoming obsessed with it like some people seem to be.
I still need to finish up Spyro 3 and I'd like to check out that Age of Empire 2 DE expansion soon. :D All of the people posting here are also kinda making me want to get back into RimWorld, but that's more of a commitment than I think I can manage right now!

There are some things you can do to ameliorate the dated visuals but it's certainly a mixed bag to say the least! The environments especially look like something out of a PS2 game, which is why my screenshot conveniently makes use of lots of motion blur. :P
I can't really speak to the physics since I don't have much experience with other racing sims other than AMS2 and PCars, but I prefer Assetto Corsa to those at least. Which ones do you play?
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
Ah that’s probably why, you took the opposite route most people go. Start with arcade racers, to simcades then to more serious stuff. I like Forza 7 Motorsport for easy quick racing, Project cars 2 for more sim racing (career mode with everything on realistic, cockpit view, VR, etc). Gonna give iRacing a try soon tho, heard good things

The multiplayer focus has already scared me off from iRacing. :P
I like arcadey racing games too - I played an embarrassing amount of Forza Horizon 4. But I find with those kinds of games I kind of rubbed up against their limitations eventually. Mostly I'm just in too deep with AC now - my install is over 1TB and growing...

yea apparently it's pretty intense and you get a ranking based on skill and how much you wreck. I do club racing irl tho so a lot of the coaches recommend playing it for practice
Oh I love arcade racing games too, Burnout 3 is prob my favorite game of all time. I also play Trackmania sometimes but that can get pretty neurodivergent
I have not played Wreckfest but shit it looks fun, I used to love Destruction Derby 64 and this kinda looks like it. Will add to my sale alert list

Ff7 remake. Time jannies are strange choise. Easily worst part in game. Last chapter is just mess. Showing le edgy bad guy constantly is strange. Visions of future is strange.
Why would you even do that? If you wanted to change timeline. You could have just one time janny. And occasionally ptsd episodes with cloud where he gets climpse of le edgy bad guy.
Then at end you find out that one spooky ghost you see during game. Is actually le edgy bad guy. Or what remains of him. And maybe he is from future. You still get you big boss fight at end. And you get to say future might have changed becouse of this.

That game was so hyped up before its release. But after they revealed that its going to be split into several parts released year apart of each and every must be purchased separately a lot of hype died down. Then after fitst part released and the story changes were somewhat controversial it faded into obscurity even more

All of the nonsense with the time jannies and weird anime shit made perfect sense when I found out Tetsuya Nomura (kingdom hearts director) was the director. still found it all kind of annoying and jarring though
I wish more game remakes would follow the example of RE2 remake
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
It dosent make sense. When you are faced with choice of 1 to 1 remake or changing stuff. You pick time jannies to explain why you cant do 1 to 1.
And same time re2 and dead space remake were both successful. Its frustrating becouse when game is not about time jannies. It is really good and charming game.
There is slight disconnect with writing when they mix old and new. They dont get tone and actions of claud quite on the line with him. But that is small issue. Even hard mode is fun.
But then time jannies apears and everything becomes shit

Ive played SR2 to the point of being sick of it lol but never tried SR1. Going back to it is good because it’s still a good game honestly but it also helps you appreciate just how much better the second game is. It’s like a massive leap in how much they improved everything they could: the shooting is still kept elegant and simple but they add human shielding and fine aim to give it a little more strategy, customization is made deeper with the advent of letting you play as both a man and woman and letting you edit every detail of a piece of clothing, the map is expanded to add interesting areas rarely seen in an open world like a prison island and a university. The leap in quality is massive but they needed the solid but flawed base to work off of. SR2 couldnt have been made as good as it is the first time

I started playing WoW. The only other MMO I've played is runescape/osrs for around 1600 combined hours
I don't really understand why people get so addicted. It's a bit boring, with every quest being the same basic formulas (go kill 20 things, a boss, or go fetch this object). The world and art style are cool though.

Very much so, but most of it is very afk'able. You can put it in a small window in the corner and glance at it every few minutes for a couple seconds then go back to whatever you were doing. I got a couple 99's playing while doing assignments in college.
WoW on the other hand requires your full attention.
