What are you playing? v.11 (Knee-Deep Edition)

[method115]

Kind of just been jumping around games. The man who erased his name has been ok but I don't know it's not really grabbing me. The story is ok for what it is but in a way it's kind of a been there done that sort of thing. I heard it's very emotional but honestly it just gave me that feeling like this shouldn't have been made. I hope this is the last game with Kiryu being the MC unless they come up with some insane idea that really works.

Sony has been doing this thing I hate where they put the deluxe version of a game on sale but leave the standard version at normal price. It's very annoying. Especially because I never play DLC so I don't care about the deluxe version. They just recently did this with Alan Wake 2 and I avoided buying it because of that.

Well Sunday I realized I actually do want to play the DLC for AW2 as I really enjoy Remedy's DLC. So I grabbed it and the game has immediately sucked me in. I can see why people didn't like this game though but I'm loving it. I just got to the part where I'm playing as Alan so will see how it goes but really glad I picked this up. I love how Remedy is always bringing something new to the table as far as gameplay and their presentation is always top notch. It's a real shame they are wasting their time on that worthless MP game that is going to fail.

Im tryin not to do that. I wanna beat A link to the past again, and then we'll see what will come next. If i do too many games at once i wont finish any of em.

I try not to do it either but at the same time I want to have fun playing games. So every once in a while this happens where no game is really clicking with me. I'm not bored but I'm not enjoying the game as much as I feel like I should be. Sometimes it's not even because of the games quality it's just I'm not in the mood for that kind of game right now. Eventually though something clicks and that's what I end up sticking with. Well the occasional MP with my friends but that's about it.

Video games arent about fun. It's about destroying the final bosses and shitting in their dead mouths.


For real though, I get it. I try to play a secondary game that I can just play and not have to beat, like a game with a Horde mode or something, to break up the tedium of another game im stuck on

Yes exactly I've been trying to find something similar right now. I want to do that with GT7. I'm not a huge racing guy but I do enjoy them here and there and more importantly it's just straight gameplay no story, beating it, etc. It's $70 though and I'm just not paying that for something I want to play casually. The next sale though I'm going to grab it.

I checked sales history for GT7 and it goes on sale in PS Store about 5 times per year and drops to around 49.99€. With springtime around the corner, I’d wager a buy-me price lands shortly for you here.

I haven't played a real time strategy game since Lords of the Realm 2 so I downloaded AOE4.

After playing through the tutorial, I miss the simplicity of LOTR. Not mention I think AOE is best played on a PC, going through all of these menu wheels with a controller kind of sucks. Not sure if I'll be playing this any more.

 

[TeTe]

Debating if I should play Kingdom Come 2 now or wait till it goes on sale lol.

I get Yakuza fatigue. I think there isn't much to do for that franchise in terms of story. They will keep milking it though.

Honestly after I finish this one I might be out for a very long time. Unless they get thrown on PS+. Also not a fan of the newest one leaving Japan. Being in Japan is part of the reason I enjoy these games.

You're serfs are starving hah

I put in so many hours into that game in HS. I'm in the same boat as you on the simplicity thing which is why I stick to the old TW games (Rome, MTW2) v the newer ones that come out.


Anyone give Civ7 a whirl? I still fire up 5 about once a year and kill a few days binging on it.

 

[HHJ]

I got GTA4 running on the Rog Ally, its kind of sweet to have the entire city of NY on portable, to do crimes in.

Infinite Wealth is the next one. It plays very well and has a lot of new things in it, some hit, some miss. It was worth my money, but wasn't ideal for me.

Yep that's the one. I enjoyed the first one honestly. Just think now is a good time to take a nice long break from this series.

I really started getting fatigued around 4, revived on 5 and found 6 to be fatiguing, but that entire storyline was miserable. Good game, but dark and miserable.

I didn't jump straight from one Yakuza game to Man Who Erased His Name, but I really liked the latter. Smaller in scope, but I found it to be all round solid, with a bittersweet ending.

God of War: Ragnorak

Man, i'm a bit disappointed that this isn't a PS5 exclusive like i thought it was. Still looks great though. I enjoy the story and puzzle stuff in these games but the combat just feels.....dated. i think the Fromsoft games have ruined that for me.

 

[NoSmilez]

I am playing Atom RPG TRUDOGRAD. I made my own character with a Kanye avatar. It's pretty funny. I am just acting like a dick to everyone. Combat is too hard though since I didn't put any stats into it.

 

[Wrath of Foamy]

I'm curious about Avowed, but as I'm playing Get Shit Done Over Time In My New Flat and Being Piss Poor, I probably won't touch it for a while.

Pirate Yakuza In Hawaii, Monster Hunter: Wilds and Atomfall are on my wishlist.

 

[Hyperglide]
