Re: The Videogames Tab

So I need to clear up some space on my PS4 to start installing new games and I'd already made a start on Far Cry 6 so now I'm picking it back up. Haven't played any of the other games in the series...

Yeah, I knew I was in for something very different when the skill tree wasn't so much the usual "strength" or "melee weapons" or anything but all these oblique-sounding ones like "half light" or...

Re: The Videogames Tab

The big one I've been playing these past few months has been Disco Elysium: The Final Cut (which finally got ported over to consoles a few months back). Been taking my time with it for a variety of...

Re: The Videogames Tab

Haven't posted in here in a while. I did end up playing and finishing Cyberpunk 2077 (on the PS4, no less - not as many glitches as I was expecting, but still quite a few). Should've written...

Re: The Videogames Tab

Well, I got given a copy for Christmas so I guess I'll find out how bad it goes sooner or later. Still too busy grinding my way through MK11, though.

Re: The Videogames Tab

Heh, apparently Cyberpunk runs so badly on PS4 that they're pulling it from release. Guess I'm not getting around to playing it any time soon.

Of course, one could argue that its notoriously high and protracted level of crunch just to get the game finished at all is so at odds with the more anti-capitalist aspects of cyberpunk as to make...

Re: The Videogames Tab

Can't say I'm terribly fussed about it either even though an open-world cyberpunk RPG sounds like it should be my jam, but some of my recent gaming choices have made me think that I need to play...

Re: The Videogames Tab

I wonder how long I'm going to end up holding out before moving on to PS5. I've still got a sizeable backlog across multiple generations as it is and none of the launch titles so far have really made...

Re: The Videogames Tab

I played Animal Crossing on a regular basis from May through September but once I missed a day or two then the gaps started getting wider and now the only time I seem to log into it is to clock a new...

I found it in one of my review threads and thought it was funny because now the association is less to do with any ideas of quality or perfectionism in the reviews and more to do with how much time...

Re: The Videogames Tab

Well, I did finish Mad Max after all that. Definitely sank more time into running down side-quests than the main quest, which was probably a mistake when the main quest was itself so under-cooked not...

That seems to be what everyone says about Uncharted - that it's like playing a big adventure blockbuster - but even that suggests a vibe that's very different from most of the games I play so I've...

Re: The Videogames Tab

I don't think I've ever played an Uncharted game - maybe saw one free to play at a con one time but it doesn't seem like something you can just pick up and play. On paper, they don't sound overly...

Huh, was I really the only one to post about The Last of Us Part II? So much for it being this huge event for gaming, I guess. Anyway, I think my initial impression was right, that is was fairly good...

If you mean the 20th anniversary package of Duke Nukem 3D, I bought it for PS4 but have barely touched it even with the promise of new maps (and trophies to earn). I did the same for Doom 64, which...

Re: The Videogames Tab

Since last I posted, I've finished the Foundation DLC in Control. Fine enough, though it's a little slight and I didn't much care for

how the main quest really does just end with Jesse fighting an...

Re: The Videogames Tab

I did finish it earlier today. Admittedly got a little tedious as I was clearing out the last of the unfinished sidequests (mainly just the janitor ones, which did all seem like they were ones you...

Re: The Videogames Tab

As far as main chapters go, I've more or less just started "The Face of the Enemy", but I've been getting caught up in side-missions like the Mold or containing Altered Items. I always feel like I've...

Re: The Videogames Tab

Finished Doom Eternal a while back. Pretty fun, though I guess you could say it's a problem that there's a lot of spinning plates involved when it comes to various new combat mechanics like adding in...

I like seeing the tab described as an 800-page run-on sentence. Feels like a Joyce novel.

Re: The Videogames Tab

I still haven't played any Animal Crossing games so I was considering trying New Horizons at some point but it'll probably depend on how much you need to be online to get the most out of it.

Re: The Videogames Tab

In fairness, Wikipedia says it was originally planned for the Nintendo 64 but it ultimately ended up on GameCube.

I gave it one complete play-through - I didn't deliberately invoke sanity effects...

Re: The Videogames Tab

I believe Eternal Darkness was on GameCube - at least, that's where I played it. I also liked it, though it definitely hews closer to the kind of survival horror shown in early Resident Evil games...
