A week into my newest obsession: Elden Ring lol.

It's not new but man, has it completely stolen my attention from everything!

Dadhawk · 09-29-2024, 12:46 PM

I have "finished" Watch Dogs Legion. I played in "classic" mode rather than "resistance" mode. So, because of that I have done 99% the game awards. To 100% you have to play the main plot in resistance mode once, no thanks.

If you don't know, in "resistance" mode when a character dies there's no coming back and if all the "Legion" dies, the game is over. I was going to play through just the main line in "resistance" mode to get the last achievement, but only made it about 20 minutes before I found it tiring as I rarely play through a game twice. Had I started in resistance mode, I would have first recruited a full "legion" (40 characters) but that was just too much work for a second playthrough. Maybe in a year or two.

In "classic" mode a character gets arrested or ends up in the hospital but comes back, timing based on other characters recruited into the "legion" (Lawyers shorten jail time, EMT and physicians shorten hospital time). Characters can still die, I lost 3 or 4 during the duration of the game.

The game was a bit repetitive, with even the interior sets shared between different buildings. Overall though I enjoyed the mechanics of recruiting various NPCs (you can make any NPC in the game a playable character) and using them based on their strengths and specialties against the mission.

So, ultimately, it was a decent game, but I wouldn't say great.

It appears Alien Isolation is finally getting a sequel

One month and 48 hours into Elden Ring...

Alright, I never played any of the Dark Souls franchise that I found out this game is based on but I can say... It's fun. No, dying constantly isn't fun due to my real life dexterity problems. No, farming/grinding runes to gain levels isn't exciting. BUT, being open world and being able to travel to most places without too much trouble and being able to pick most of your battle engagements makes the game that much more enjoyable. As someone who sucks at this type of game, I really like it.

I cannot lie. No, that's not right, I am just lying when I say I cannot lie because I can. Obviously.

What I am trying to say is I am looking forward to STALKER 2. Released about 21st of this month. I am going to buy the most expensive edition which is not something I've done before. Not that I particularly want the extra goods, just that I think GSC is deserving of my money. I guess it's a bit of charity.

I've not looked forward to a game in such a long time; I hope it delivers on some of my expectations.

This was not even on my radar and now it is!

I get the feeling it's going to be similar to Cyberpunk's launch; a buggy mess on launch that eventually turns into a masterpiece.
I hope that's what happens with this game.

Then again, if it's not a shit pile on launch it has lost half the STALKER experience

Captain Snooze · 11-21-2024, 02:22 AM

Ok, off to a great start. There was no issue binding the keys I wanted.

I had this same experience with Cyberpunk; the forums were full of people complaining about performance issues which I didn't have.
I have just started past all the intro cut scenes and I am averaging about 70fps without up scaling.

Looks good.
