    Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

    I day/week one buy a handful of games a year, another 10-20 games when on sale and then sporadically pay for GaaS like Gamepass/EA Play Pro or MMOs during lulls and with that I get at minimum 1-2k hours spent on gaming each year for like 25 years now. Maybe it's bias from enjoying a wide gamut...

    Honkai Star Rail

    This is definitely a better mobile/brain dead game than Genshin. Just hit TL24 last night and have been enjoying it more than I thought upon first impression. Got Welt, Gepard and a smattering of others with around 60 pulls. Just going to save all the freebies now since I don't plan on spending...

    Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

    Yeah too bad the person streaming looked like they had never played a video game before, but what little I watched did look neat.

    Honkai Star Rail

    So far it feels like Genshins ugly sister, but definitely better for mobile play if that's your thing. Twitch has drops going and here are the active codes I could find - Redeem Page - Honkai: Star Rail official website | May this journey lead us starward STARRAILGIFT HSRVER10XEDLFE...

    Dead Island 2

    Agree it looked pretty boring in streams.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    I've got a 25 of each class so there is zero chance I spend time leveling with Zelda coming out that weekend.

    Lost Ark Online

    Really nice changes. Would like to see streamlined one difficulty vykas/valtan and the AH api next. Think I might pick this up again with some real playtime this fall and just keep pushing my main up until then.

    Final Fantasy 16

    Combat actually looks solid. Was expecting way worse from the previous trailers but seems like a huge upgrade from FFVII remake.

    Yes you can't go higher than 60fps.

    Taking some personal care days for this release. That last trailer is hype.

    Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

    Regardless of their hardware situation and no matter how much we hate it their typical customer will continually justify $60-70 prices for 10 year old games, pay $30-50 for $2 steam indie games, buy decades old remakes for modern prices etc. Parents aren't going to buy a Steam Deck in lieu of a...

    Just go to YouTube and type "4k zelda botw setup" and videos will show you the way.

    They are literally all over including one right by great plateau. 20 hours for the blind.

    Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

    Did you guys just never see any Hinox when you played and fought with sticks/low quality weapons? You could get an inventory full of knight or if lucky royal weapon drops pretty much immediately after getting out into the world and never think about it again. It made dura a short term...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 40x0 cards - x2 the power consumption, x2 the performance

    Save another $600 4090 or wait until next gen imo. 3080ti -> 4090 is indeed like ~2x better vs ~1/3 for 7900.

    Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

    Same. Handheld gaming isn't for me, but they have at least a dozen games each gen that are 100% worth playing and I don't want to be a pirate. Emulated versions of their games in 4k look fantastic. BOTW below for example.

    Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

    The durability isn't gone based on that trailer, but even in the first one that was a non issue within the first couple of hours.

    Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

    That's cause it's in the switch thread =D And yes it's going to be amazing to see the creativity that comes out of this game with how much came out of the first.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Sadly no. They need more body types or sliders for small / medium / big gulp.

    Did you guys know that druids had to eat both a werewolf and werebear at the same time in order to become the fat fucks they are in this game? #blizzardlore #bodypositivity #fatfuckingdruids

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Leveling has never been a challenge in any ARPG so the scaling is whatever. You run around 1 shotting everything higher/lower/equal to your level if you gear/build correctly so what difference does it make? Getting to 100 and then doing whatever end game loop is the only thing that will matter...

    I feel like not much grass is going to be touched this summer with Zelda 2, D4, CS2, BG3, SF6, FFXVI on the to do list and the backlog that never ends. Shaping up to be a crazy good gaming year though.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Got second char, the rogue, to 25. Will probably wait until next test to run Barb or if they unlock the other classes try them. I've put like 10 hours or so into this beta and I like it. Very good Diablo aesthetic, story so far seems to be pretty metal, dungeons are fun, skill trees seem good...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Yeah happened to me just now as well. 80 minute que again. <_< Finished fucking around on Sorc so will try something else next.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Just about wrapped up leveling Sorc before I got trapped in an instanced zone and had to exit and come back to an hour que. It's going to be really hard to tell if this is worth a dick without getting into end game. It feels like every ARPG that has ever existed in the early game minus the fact...

    Game Pass for Xbox and PC

    On Gamepass I think the closest to Mario 64 would be Pyschonauts 2 (was enjoyable) or Super Lucky Tale games (never played). Turn based the Wasteland series games are great. Return to Monkey Island was decent for a puzzle game.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    You can do whatever you want and not fall behind and the game is extremely easy to get alts up. I've got a 410 main playing fairly casual by the second week after character was created and 2 400 alts that basically do nothing at all other than raid. Unlocked valor so you can farm until your...

    Game Pass for Xbox and PC

    Beat HiFi Rush this weekend after playing on and off for the last week. Mix of Devil May Cry style combat tied to rhythm for combat bonuses with surprisingly decent writing and great art/animations. Gamepass gem for sure.

    Black Desert

    Got tired of waiting for order to fill so in the great tradition of BDO I present the ~13-14B cost to craft for the 4.5B item. I gained 4 170+ stacks out of it and removed like a thousand of these clothes from existence. Best game on the planet.

    Wild Hearts - EA Monster Hunter Clone

    Oh the volatile. Yeah just need to abuse trap/harpoon. If you're good about it you can keep it near perma locked. Pretty much mandatory to do in these fights. If you have access to the resurrection perk (on some armor or talisman kemono alignment) that let's you take a death without losing a...
