Thanks for the info, will check it out.

Yeah, main story itself wasn’t bad, it was all the side stuff I couldn’t get myself into. I did finish the game, but gave up on all side stuff around mid way.

I like Assassin’s Creed games, loved 2, enjoyed 3, and 4 is considered the best, but for some reason I couldn’t get into it. It’s possible that I have changed, cause I played 2 and 3 closer to launch, and 4 only in last couple of years.

Not sure if I should continue with the rest of the series, specially Origins etc. heard they are very bloated. Maybe I’ll give Mirage or Shadows a try.

As someone who hasn’t played RDR 2 (or online) yet, I was guessing Skyrim 😀

Interesting, never thought about it.

Those cats were creepy.

Oh, thanks for the info. I always add two lines when I want a line break, didn’t know you can add two spaces at the end!

lol, no worries.

Nice! I’ll be playing on PS, but this should work with controller too. Thanks for the tip!

I don’t think I have read that one, thanks for the recommendation!

I haven’t tried Warlock yet, will give him a try. Racoon is pretty good, though his healing isn’t that great (at least that’s what I felt), great as a secondary healer though.

Oooh, written by Peter F. Hamilton, should check it out!

Ah, it’s a mod.

Thought it was a new game.

Nice, let’s see how long they can keep the momentum.

I have played a few games, and while I am not good at it, it’s still fun to play, specially with character like Jeff, where you can focus on healing instead of kills.

Completely agree with you, but MS is doing this for money too, they just think it’s a strategy that works better for them, specially because they are selling least amount of consoles.

Wow. Thanks for the detailed reply.

I guess I’ll just try it when it’s on sale.

That’s good, I liked Fallout Shelter, but wanted more depth. Though, some of the other comments are making me think it might be too complex. Still, seems like worth a try!

Haven’t played DF, but this sounds complex.

Is this like Fallout shelter?

Try some cozy games, like Animal Crossing, or any of the dozens of other farming / crafting games. If you want 3D, Slime Rancher is a good option in this category.

Destide has already mentioned Stardew Valley, which is also a great choice.

You can also try some not-difficult side-scrolling game, like Rayman Legends, it has some difficult levels, but most of the game is very chill.

It’s cool to hate everything Fortnite.

That was a nice song. 😀

Hehe, a very valid point, but I am assuming they won’t give their most hyped game to such a new team.

But then again, it’s a Ubisoft AAA game, so even with all experienced devs, I don’t have very high hopes for it. They make great smaller games (Rayman, PoP: The Lost Crown etc) but then they decide not to make any sequels.

As a dev (but not a game dev), this can be either good or bad, depending on how the team is grouped, and what their development flow is.

Half new devs means, half of them are veterans, which would also include team leads and the managers, who will plan, review and test whatever those devs are doing, so if their workflow is solid, other than some slowdown in development speed, it shouldn’t cause much issue.

I wasn’t talking about 3rd party, there are enough of them that will run on a PS4 level hardware as long as we don’t count new AAA. Problem is first party games. If there are no first party games, then on what basis can it compete with Steam Deck or upcoming Switch 2?

With the way game industry is, I wonder how many of these will be layed off in couple of years with something like “we overestimated industry expansion” or something.

I have become pretty pessimistic about gaming companies.

They have just released a beta of streaming directly from cloud. Don’t know if there are any limitations, but if everything goes well, it may release officially in a few months.

Well, you still have that other kidney…

Even if it’s a handheld PS4, if it can’t play any latest PS5 games, then Sony would need to support it with games made specifically for it, and I don’t think they give enough output to support two systems.

Steam Deck is supported by the huge steam library, so difficult to compete with it without good first party support.

I am in a similar boat. And it isn’t just Vita, they did same with PS VR and PS VR 2.

If it isn’t their main home console, Sony can’t be trusted to support it with their first party titles.

Going to wait for actual announcement and details to make up my mind about this, but don’t care about it in general, and I doubt there is much they can say about it that would make me buy it on day 1.

Probably because of all the gorgeous games. 😀

Ah okay. Good luck!

Maybe they will keep the dark, grim, shadowy graphics and the fast paced shooting.

Are you playing all Halo games at once? I recall you were playing Halo: CE couple of days ago, and there was also some mention of Halo 3. Or have you finished both those games?

Congratulation on Day 125!

With the title like this, I didn’t think you would even reach Day 20, it’s nice to see you still going strong! 😀

The first 2 images look very real / photorealistic, at least in thumbnails.

That’s a very sad news. Love their games.

I have never played Halo, planning to start the MC collection soon.

I haven’t been gaming on PC for a long time so stopped following it, but from what I recall, they changed that.

They officially changed their name to “GOG”, previously it was same but it stood for Good Old Gaming, they removed that part. Also, they started focusing on getting newer games. I am typing this from memory, so it’s possible that it isn’t exactly correct, but that’s what I recall.

It seems they are going back to their roots. Maybe because they need competitive edge to stay in market, or maybe they actually care about these things, who knows.

I was going to laugh at your comment, but I fear it can actually happen.
