Borderlands 3: Guns, Love, Tentacles DLC. Good stuff.
Also re-installed Sid Meier's Pirates on my PC. Happy times. |

LMAO I just went through this same scenario a couple weeks ago. You should have heard the cacophony when he finally won.

Playing the Trials of Mana demo while waiting for FF7. So much better than the Secret of Mana remake from last year. They really stepped their game up with this one. I'm honestly just super hyped to finally get a western release of Seiken Densetsu 3 in general as it was one of the top 5 games on SNES for me, even with the shitty fan translations I had to work with to emulate it 2 decades ago.
Demo is actually extremely large, allowing for the full selection of your 3 person party from the 6 available characters and as such has all their origin stories included. I picked my party and have been playing for hours and just picked up the second character of the 3 Ill have. Im in the 3rd town technically, but currently doing the origin story for the second character as it gives you the option to play through theirs as well as your mains. Best part is that all progress will transition into the full game, so won't have to play through hours of content again in a couple weeks. Highly recommend giving it a shot if you like old school RPGs, particularly ones with an action based combat system. |

Big same. I got lucky and found a store with an extra copy of the deluxe physical edition that they are holding for me for Friday morning. Gonna violate tf out of the Georgia and South Carolina stay at home orders to go get that baby. I give zero shits about it in this case because FF7 is essential.
tbf I will never have to get out of my car because they are doing curbside pick up so I'll be socially distanced the entire time. |

I "had to" go back and pick up playing Ultimate Alliance 3 again to experience the last bit of DLC with the Fantastic Four and Dr. Doom. I have to say, Mister Fantastic continues to be an underrated star throughout this series. Plus, he's rocking that sweet beard.

Well, dropped everything I was in the middle of and am now focused on Doom Eternal. I'm trying to do a mission a day. Hopefully I can finish it faster than I did its predecessor.

Playing Ori and the Blind Forest. I recently got stuck on on spot that I simply didnt know how to get past. It felt like Ninja Turtles on Nintendo. Finally after about an hour and 60 attempts, I realized that i just needed to drop the heavy glowing rock and climb a totem wall.
I cut myself a few times after this. |

Bought Modern Warfare. First CoD I've played in a long time. it does not disappoint.
That level in the campaign "Clean House" was pretty real looking and intense as fook. |

I just started playing Days Gone. Really tense atmosphere as soon as you start it and it supposedly only gets more intense the further along you go. It comes off as pretty much an open world The Last of Us so far.

Glad you're enjoying it. As for me, well, this is clearly what the game should've been. It's a day late and way too many dollars short. I'm never touching 76, but I still hope Bethesda can renew goodwill with Starfield in the next generation, but if it proves to be trash, too, forget about TES VI or anything else because I guarantee it will be Bye-bye, Bethesda.

You've not played it? "I'm never touching 76" yet you hold such a strong opinion.
Get off the bucket and try it. It is honestly way more like FO3 or New Vegas. Gatekeeping video games, GTFO |

Oh, right. The old "How DARE you talk bad about a game I like that you've never played?!" argument. I don't have to have played it to know it sucks. Plenty of YT videos and online articles have told me all I need to know. Me playing it is never happening.

Not true. I'm also never touching WWE 2K20. for perspective, I own every single game in the SmackDown! series all the way up to 19
That's how bad they fucked up this year. But do go ahead and try to convince me that I should play that too. Won't happen. I have standards, believe it or not. |

I was hyped for 76 myself. Then it bombed badly on release. They may have fixed it now but I could care less. The product should have been done right originally instead of making people pay full price to basically be beta testers for a year and a half. I'm not rewarding them with a purchase for that bullshit.
I went through this before with No Mans Sky. Maybe if I had faith left in Bethesda I'd give it a go, but after the way they abandoned me and everyone else who bought Skyrim on PS3, they can fuck right off. |

Nah, wouldn't bother with WWE. Just coming from the perspective as a fan of the series. I paid full price at launch, played to about level 20 and said "fuck it". it was hot garbage, burning even. Uninstalled it before the end of the year was up and never looked back. Despite the massive bugs that have hit it, I never experienced any of them. Definitely nothing in it for me if you play it or not dude. Just saying from a fan of the series to another, its definitely where it should have been at launch. |

So, I’m not that up to date with games but working my way through Jedi Fallen Order. It’s a pretty dense game for me. Also, dipping into WWE 2K19 to pass 30 minutes here and there.
A week ago I was playing Goldeneye due to my XBox not working. All the nostalgia. |

Surprised me in a very good way at how much better it is from the last CoD I played. |

Glad I've stayed away from 76. Evidently it has events, and in events right now, you can die and have NPC's loot your corpse.
That game has officially been compromised by Russia, I'm certain of it. I have however recently gone back to 4 as there's quite a bit of Nuka-World DLC I haven't done yet. Just finished the side quest "Trip to the Stars" and became an AHS-8 Hubologist via 8 different "alignments". |

I mean NPCs looting you is more realistic if we're being honest. Why should they sit around when you die and not take your stuff?

Took longer than it should have, but I finally got all the single player trophies for Red Dead Redemption 2. Just gotta find and stable the last wild super horse and then I'll go to online.
But, I'm going to take a quick break and jump back into Borderlands 3 and see if this new event is worth my time. Definitely getting Streets of Rage 4 tomorrow. |

Just finished the story for Trials of Mana. On to the post game content they added in that wasn't in the original.
The Trials of Mana (Seiken Densetsu 3 originally, never came to the west) remake is infinitely better than the Secret of Mana remake. They did way better in every single aspect, from the translation to the graphics/sound and especially the gameplay. And they fixed the biggest problem of all from SoM....they actually made it challenging. SoM remake is one of the easiest games I have ever played....this one was easy at first then suddenly it shifted and dodges/timing/pattern recognition became super important. The only thing that isn't tuned well is a spell called ancient curse. Its far too overpowered although it has a ridiculous cast time/mana cost. But if you manage to target it properly and fire it off before getting interrupted it will annihilate every enemy in a regular mob in one move. I actually ignored 2 of my party members and just spammed it with my 3rd and killed the last boss of the campaign in like 45 seconds after it handed my ass to me multiple times in a row trying to fight it straight up. This new content seems like it might be pretty damn hard tho tbh. The first/easiest mobs at the beginning of the new super dungeon can wipe your whole party in seconds if you get complacent. Gonna try and grind it out tomorrow and see how far I can get but I already know its gonna be a blast. This is a great ARPG to scratch that old nostalgia itch. |
