Another backlog game I would like to get to soon. Did you play it on release at all?

I played it all the way through on launch on PC. It had bugs, and it was missing some glaring things, like proper cop AI. However overall I had no game breaking bugs. But also, I didn’t really follow the hype until the game was already coming out, so i didn’t have many expectations going in. I highly recommend it. Performance has improved, features have been added and refined, and it’s got a very rich and detailed world to play with. I haven’t played the DLC yet, but I’m hearing that’s pretty good as well.

Gotcha, that’s about what I’ve heard from others too. I’m glad they continued to work on it and make it the game that they originally envisioned. I’m looking forward to playing it eventually haha

Just finished playing this for the first time. Loved it wished there were more in world missions to do as I enjoyed the city.

I’m doing another playthrough on hardest difficulty while only leveling intelligence perks. So, all I do is use smart guns and quick hacks. It’s a very different way to play.

I started another playthrough of Skyrim! I’m not using any mods, but I am using content from the Creation Club or something that Bethesda offers, so I’m seeing new quests and weapons. I’m still discovering rooms and such in caves and dungeons I didn’t see before, and after all these years, I’m still having the time of my life! :)

Not to dissuade you from exploring Skyrim some more, but if you’ve never tried Enderal it’s completely amazing. Fan-made game using Skyrim engine and assets, free, and intense. Just, uh, don’t play the intro around those who scare easily.

Maybe skip the whole game, then, it gets dark.

Such a classic! If my backlog wasn’t so large I would have returned to it by now

Finished Batman: Arkham Asylum yesterday. Also started Witcher 3 a while ago and have yet to finish that.

Slay the Princess

What a crazy, unexpected gem. Without spoiling anything, it’s a hand-animated interactive narrative game with strong Stanley Parable influences.

That came across my recommendation queue the other day - despite my dislike for horror, it looks interesting enough that I might check it out!

I don’t think I would classify it as a horror game really. It’s got some gritty subjects that it dives into and there are a few storylines that can be a bit gruesome, but overall it wasn’t really scary. It was more witty and philosophical at its core.

I watched a stream of someone who played through every ending because the game is just captivating and so well done.

SMT Nocturne, it looks as if I’m about to battle with the four horsemen of the apocalypse.

Old game I know, but old is great 👍
