Fuck.
ABC (and some other random endings). But I just learned the truth about YoRHa and finished the game with A2. Unlocked debug and chapter select, so I'll go back and get ending D with 9S. Crazy fucking story man, and I know solely based on my experience so far, that endings D and (maybe) E will change even more stuff. This story has been so damn amazing, emotional, and just... god damn man. |

Well god damn......
If that wasn't some next level shit right there........ This game is a masterpiece. The story, the everything. Listening to the soundtrack on Spotify while working today. INSTANTLY brings up all the feels from the game. That's how I know this shit is good man. Become As Gods. Glory to Mankind. |

I don't know if I even want to play Replicant now. I don't even want to go back to Automata...... just let it rest where it is....

SEPH!!!
I have such a fucking void to fill now, but dunno how. I think this has taken the top spot in my favorite game of all time. Playing anything else feels trivial, but I can't help but put the overall story in other games. Any shooter for example..... is "my character" just being "re-created" for each "respawn". Is this how humans work? WTF. Just..... yeah. |

I feel you man. It really makes you think. One of the deepest stories of any medium ever.
It's also up there in my top games of all time, but not my #1. I doubt anything will ever come close to knocking Chrono Trigger off that pedestal for me. Now if you need something that won't feel trivial to grab your attention then go for Persona 5 Royal if you haven't already. That's another one I rank very highly. Could use it to give yourself a break before Replicant. OG Nier isn't as good as Automata, but it's still a great experience (I didn't play the Replicant rerelease yet, but will at some point). |

I destroyed far cry 6, becoming the God of headshots along the way.
Outriders finally dropped for Gamespass on PC so I'm giving it a shot. Gonna see how far I can get solo first, which is apparently a lot harder in this game, and I can see why. Battles get fast and furious in a hurry. Seems pretty fun so far though. Kinda gears-esque. Faster paced though. The setting is interesting and I already find myself very interested in the lore of this game. And damn is it pretty when you can crank up all the bells and whistles to maximum. Running locked 60 fps @native 4k with everything on ultra. Doesn't seem to phase my PC at all even when running with no overclocking, which is awesome. Load times are 1-2 seconds. Wish I had a higher framerate on this monitor (actually a TV, but whatever) but it will only display 60fps in native 4k and dropping it down to the 120hz modes wouldn't be the same test obviously. Oh well. Damn now I wanna buy a 120hz 4k TV for my rig >_< |

Chrono Trigger was my #1. The only reason this takes the crown is that is is so god damn unique and the story. The various "genres" you play in one title is crazy. Like, when I first started 9s playthrough, I didn't care for hacking, but by the end it was amazing like the quick melee combat. Never thought the last hack on A2 would end. Never thought the credit fighting would end.
Outriders..... enjoy the fun before you get bored. Can't remember what level I got to, but it is TOTALLY manageable solo if you understand your class. Play to their strengths and you'll do just fine. |

I picked the tanky class. Normally hate playing pure tank but it seemed the best bet for a solo run. Gaining health for killing enemies in close proximity is absolutely crucial

Outriders wasn't bad bad.
Good weapons and armor doesn't come until after the game. But, I platinumed already and there wasn't any point going further to discover "the truth". Disappointed that no further DLC content came for this game. I think the vibe is that the game didn't do good in sales. |

Careful, as it is a "live service" game and they can yank your account if caught. LPT: Youtube the story next time instead of putting yourself through whatever Outriders wants to be |

They don't yank your account on Outriders. They just label you a cheater and match you with other cheaters and if you never play outside of single player they dont even bother apparently.

Also I H-A-T-E watching youtube videos of games with a passion. Only ones I ever watch are easter egg videos and like "top 10 upcoming games" or w/e and I only watch those on super rare occasions when I am really bored and don't feel like watching literally anything else.

Playing Guardians of the Galaxy. Really good so far. Combat is fun. Not terribly deep, but still fun. Story is fantastic so far.

What do you mean? How they don't ban people for it? I would agree thats stupid if there was any competitive nature to Outriders, but there isn't. No leaderboards, no pvp. Just a co-op shooter. No reason to really ban people for it given that; just lump them in with the other cheaters so they people they are playing with are in the same boat and aren't taking away from the experience of people who want to play it the legit way.

Loving the fuck out of Mario Party Superstars. It's bringing back so many memories and I'm glad a good chunk of my favorite minigames got included. The playable roster could be bigger, though, but it's still fun.

I finished Guardians. What a fucking ride. Combat is rough around the edges, but still fun like I said before. This game leans heavily on its narrative and characters. If you don't care about story in video games, I'm gonna say this isn't for you. That said, this is one of the most enjoyable stories I've ever experienced in a game. Just a blast all the way through.
Characters are well written and voice acted. Insane amount of VA in this, as the group is constantly bantering during missions and all of it is unique. The comedy had me chuckling all the way through. I was a bit worried after the trailer as some of those jokes fell flat, but most of what's here is pretty funny. The world's you explore are fucking gorgeous. Can tell a lot of the budget went into the environments. I think it has enough draw from the mcu to pull in fans who have only seen the movies, while not coming off like Dollar store knock offs, like Avengers. But if you are familiar with the books, there's a lot great stuff here. Speaking of Avengers, GotG shits all over it by having mcu skins as free in game unlocks as opposed to charging 14 fucking dollars for them. |

Downloaded UnMetal on Switch and am about halfway through it. Specifically got it for Switch instead of XBOX because it "feels right" on Nintendo.
Fantastic love letter of batshit insanity towards Metal Gear. As in, the pre-solid games. It's like a Mix of BOTH versions of MG, the original sequel, and Snake's Revenge... but a lot of tounge-in-cheek nonsense to outright bullshit as you play a guy who was imprisoned for a crime he didn't commit. There were a couple of BS cheap deathtraps (there's one area specifically where, no matter what you do, the situation is unwinable, but it's still fun to try just for the narrative), but it is kinda par for the course, given how the narrative works. In fact, my only *real* complaint came early in the game, since there was a thing you need to do to progress, and there is no real moment in the game that tells you you can do x thing, but it hints/signposts/tutorializes pretty much everyting else. Seems almost like a programming oversight. |

Started Diablo 2 remake with my buddy.
Inventory system sucks. We were stopping like crazy to adjust, check, and drop like crazy. Also playing Lost Judgement on the side. Already about an hour in and it's getting good. |

You know I thought I was hyped for D2R seeing as I probably have more game time in D2 than any other game ever by a wide margin. But I can't bring myself to play it for some reason. Dunno if its because of all the launch issues or if I just don't want to ruin the image I have of what is one of my favorite games ever.

Don't.
Had D2R pre-ordered, played the demo and canceled. It does not translate well to console IMO. The inventory alone is abysmal. That single problem causes chain-reaction issues.... like grabbing loot, which is THE main reason to play. |

Yeah, I played it for a couple hours and haven't touched it since. Couldn't deal with the inventory system.
Playing Blasphemous now. Metroidvania game with an absolutely brutal aesthetic involving Spanish religious iconography. |

Honestly probably won't ever play it even though my Diablo itch is worsening every day, especially with D4 getting delayed out of presumably 2022 to God knows when. I'd rather just keep my fond memories of OG D2 untarnished. |

Playing DQXI Definitive Edition. Don't think I ever finished the OG version, got sidetracked or something even though I liked it. Dunno what happened.
5 days until Shin Megami Tensei 5 drops too. And Forza Horizon 5 next week too. Woooo its gaming season. |

Yeah man. my timing can be so sporadic, which is the usual problem. Knowing what I know now, I'd definitely put on hacker and lockpick 3. Just need to take the time to get on and try to do "dailys' or whatever and build my inventory back up. I know fuckall about the endgame of FO76, but it still seems fun to play when I do dive in. My son has kinda started playing, but he gets sucked right back into his "usual games". |

Had a moment last night where I just arrived on Danuk (can't remember, but I think it's the last place) and thought I was looking at Destiny 2 for a moment. Looked very similar to the Dreaming City.
Easily my favorite FPS. It goes hard on the platforming too, much more than it has any right to, for an FPS. Sooooooooo good man. Got your DM too, lol. I was AFK at the time, but yeah man. Can't stop riiiiiipppppinnnnng and teaaarrrrrrrinnnnnnggg. |
