It’s a great game, very cool and crazy interactions can happen. But I never got totally invested in the map and story. That may be because I was playing coop. The difficulty is a bit tricky, at one level constantly retreating and throwing barrels is the only way to barely win. Go one notch down on difficulty and I never lose a battle.
Also it irks me that physical armor prevents me from knocking someone over.
But even thought I may never finish it, it’s a very unique game.
Wasteland 3. I like it a lot more than Divinity Original Sin 2 so far. The DOS2 plot just doesn’t resonate with me. But I do miss the battle initiative order of DOS.
Galactic Ruler. May be more complicated than Distant Worlds 2 or X4 Foundations. It seems to do more stuff (like having planet maps and gameplay) but the UI is challenging. Even just selecting a ship to give orders takes too many clicks IMO.
Days Gone. Great blend of open world exploration, stories, and combat. Very well done game, if you like Far Cry 5 you’d probably like this too.
Borderlands 3, got this for free, enjoyable enough but if you played the other Borderlands this is more of the same. Too many gun choices and too much looting, but some of the guns are pretty amusing, like one that when you reload you throw the mag and it deploys into a turret.
Third-person shooters suck. The character model gets in the way of seeing and I don’t need to see the super tacticool costumes. And the more decent third-person shooters switch to first-person for aiming down the sights anyway.
Cards in video games suck. Unless it’s simulating a real card game. Otherwise we don’t need powerup cards and such, use some other mechanic. My level 89 death knight doesn’t need to be pulling cards out of his pockets.
Motion blur, vignetting, depth of field, lens flare, none of these should be the default. Show me the game world clearly.
Enderal for a whole new world in the Skyrim engine. New map, new creatures, new spells, new items, pretty much nothing is unchanged and it’s really well done.
Kingdom Come Deliverance for a more hardcore and true-life fantasy RPG
Oblivion if you haven’t played it, just needs a texture mod for the most part.
Dragon’s Dogma Dark Arisen
Witcher 3
Cyberpunk 2077 if you don’t mind non-fantasy.
So the doorbell was programmed to say “Excuse me, can I help you?” and the driver thought that was racist somehow?
So someone at Amazon decides to take the word of a gig worker delivery driver with no verification or investigation, and shut down all of the customer’s Amazon devices? Wow, that’s not a bad precedent at all.
This sort of thing seems to happen far too often since Microsoft took over.
