    Ghost of Tsushima

    This is coming from someone who absolutely loves the game, but at the core it is a very generic Open World game that follow the usual tropes of the genre. Don't get me wrong, it does everything well, and the setting, the characters, awesome combat etc., but other than that it's an Open World...

    Ashes of Creation

    This is kind of my concern, essentially it looks like PVE players will be the one to advance the Nodes only for PVP players to destroy them. I'm not sure the PVE crowd will not be in for that for the long term. It still looks pretty interesting though, and will give it a try when it comes out...

    Ghost of Tsushima

    Ok, about 30 hours in. Yeah I know that’s way too much. :) I went back to the first area after finishing Act 1 and liberated it, and did all the ”?”. So now I can proceed to the second area. I’m way too OCD to advance the story in Act 2 with stuff left to do in the first area. This has allowed...

    Ghost of Tsushima

    When you’re on the map and using the Traveller outfit, you can use the d-pad right direction I think to bring up options as to what to track with the wind.You get a few options with outfit alone, plus the exploration skills.

    Ghost of Tsushima

    Got the outfit upgraded to max. 5 kills streak standoffs. This will never get old. :) Oh and I don’t think this was mentioned. The load times are amazing in this. Fast travel is actually fast. :)

    Ghost of Tsushima

    Upgraded my appearance. It’s pretty cool gives me 1 more attack during standoffs so I can kill 4 now. Need 1 more upgrade and it will be 5. Standoffs are much harder at this point though, ennemies having a possible 3 feints before they attack and I think, not 100% sure, that the window to react...

    Ghost of Tsushima

    About 15 hours in, completed Act 1 but still have loads of Tales and about 1/4 of the first map section to unveil. I’m really enjoying the main story and the side quests. The side quest are really well integrated with the main story and what’s happening. Most of the characters are interesting...

    Ghost of Tsushima

    After another 3 hours or so tonight. I’m still enjoying the game tremendously. The combat is pretty fun, getting a few skills makes things more interesting. Story is pretty good so far. The camera is getting to me though, I don’t remember the last time I saw a camera this bad. The combat and...

    The Old Guard (2020)

    I watched this last night, I was entertained. I have some issues here and there but overall thought it was pretty good. I would watch a sequel if they make one, which they set up.

    Ghost of Tsushima

    I played for 2 hours before work. Got through the prologue and into the open world a bit. The game looks gorgeous, I really like how colorful it is. The story did it's job of pulling me in, fairly standard stuff but interesting nonetheless. The combat seems pretty good, I'm playing at normal...

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    Just to add to this a little, there's fundamentally 2 type of guilds in ESO, Trade Guilds(that is guilds that have a trader npc), and Regular Guilds(those that don't have a trader). As Xerge mentioned, there are no Auction House in ESO, trades are done by visiting NPCs scattered across the world...

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    This is funny when you read the latest patch notes about "The Bartender". Basically the npc bartender has behavior around his bar, cleaning, making drinks for NPC etc...very "immersive" but ultimately adds nothing to the gameplay. They spend so much effort on stuff like this. I remember...

    No Man's Sky

    Damn, I thought this was just to announce the next update. The update is actually available today. Talk about coming out of nowhere. Desolation Patch Notes Some nice changes in there too.

    Gotta respect Hello Games for their work with the game since the release flop, it has come such a long way, and it’s not over...next DLC is turning into Alien. :)

    Ghost of Tsushima

    Watched a few reviews, and it seems that the game is generally pretty good. Combat seems good, with stances being really useful against specific enemies. Stealth seems to be an issue since the enemy AI not great, so stealth is very powerful. Story seems good, and some side missions seems to...

    Ghost of Tsushima

    I haven't pre-ordered yet, waiting for the review embargo to lift tomorrow before doing so. I'm super excited for this, yes it looks like Assassin's Creed: Japan, but as someone who put over 80+ hours in AC:Origins and over 180+ in AC:Odyssey, that is not something that I see as a negative. The...

    Legends of Runeterra - Card game by Riot Games

    I always enjoy reading their comments on why they change things, and what they hope to accomplish. It's a great insight into their vision for the game. For example on Pilfered Goods and the Nab mechanic. They think the mechanic is fine, but understand it can be frustrating for the opponent, so...

    Kingdom of Amalur: Re-Reckoning remaster releasing soon

    I was surprised this was getting a remaster. I'm even more surprised that they are actually making an expansion. The original was kind of a decent game, if the remaster is good, I might get it when the expansion comes out.

    Legends of Runeterra - Card game by Riot Games

    I still play on and off, a bit less since I'm back to working after 3 months of quarantine, and also busy with other games. It has nothing to do with the state of the meta which I think is still pretty good, agree with Mogwai that the previous one was the best, but this is still pretty good, and...

    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    I doubt they'll retcon, they can just pretty much ignore it. Move the timeline forward and minimize or remove all reference to the events of the sequels, or move the timeline backward to a time before the prequels and you don't have to deal with it at all. They can continue telling stories set...

    I finished my base and was quite proud of it. Nothing special but it’s home. Then I came across this and realize I am a failure. :)

    I found an S Class Freighter, 34 slots nice upgrade from my A Class except it’s an ugly and my A Class is an awesome black...so I passed on it. Gotta have done standards right? As an added bonus, still have getting a better freighter as one of my objective. :) I did finally find a nice little...

    I think they got like a $40M and $20M from private investors in exchange for some shares in the company.

    No Man's Sky

    A lot of these quick way to make money, or nanites for me kind of defeat the purpose of the game. Since when you have tons of money and nanties, a big part of the game is gone. That’s just me though. I won’t disagree that a lot of what you do in the game is fairly meaningless, NMS is a true...

    No Man's Sky

    I'm utterly addicted to this game now for the past few weeks. Up to over 80 hours, and not even remotely getting bored yet. I managed to complete the main quest, weirdly interesting story. Enjoyed it. I maxed out the 3 tabs of my inventory, makes such a big difference, I hate inventory...

    Legends of Runeterra - Card game by Riot Games

    I like the change in general. Black Merchant needs to be "Plunder: Draw 1 card from the enemy deck and reduce it's cost by 1". So the reduce cost is only for the card he draws. Having it reduce the cost of other "Nab" cards will cause issues in the future if they want to introduce more "Nab"...

    The Last of Us

    The way this is going, everyone is going to buy the game so they can see how bad it is and rant on it and it's going to make it a a bestseller. :)

    Legends of Runeterra - Card game by Riot Games

    I had 2 quest that required activating Plunder, so I played the Sejuani and Miss Fortune deck, after 3 games I haven't drawn a Black Merchant or Pilfered goods yet. None of the 2 quests are complete. I thought it would be easy to do, but it's 2020, everything sucks. :)

    I don’t like the suit, would have preferred full on alien armour. All the alien parts look amazing I think.

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    What's amazing to me is that according to the Forbes article, funding is actually increasing, that's mind boggling. I mean I enjoyed the last time I played it for 2 weeks or so, which was 3.7 or 3.8, but by no means does it justify an increasing in funding. I'll probably go back and see the...

    New World

    Now I'm not too much into PvP, but what I get from the video is game looks visually nice, seems to run well, time to kill looks pretty good, no one shot, but not insane sustain. That said, I do enjoy small hotbars like GW2 or ESO, I'll play something like WoW or FF14 but I prefer the smaller...

    Legends of Runeterra - Card game by Riot Games

    It's kind of funny, Mogwai made a Twisted Fate/Jinx deck like 2 days ago, faced it twice yesterday in about 8 games in Normal. I think I'll make it, it looks fun as hell to play. It somehow actually manages to level up both Jinx and Twisted fairly easily even though their requirement are kind of...

    I just started this again today after a break since the release of the last expansion and my first reaction whenever I get back into this is the same...damn the shooting and gameplay is unmatched.

    Playstation 5

    PS5 Digital for me, haven't bought a physical copy in years. I think the console looks kind of slick, but not a huge fan of the vertical design since it won't fit in my TV stand, actually not sure where I'll set it up. As far as the games, there's only 2 must have for me which were Spiderman...

    Legends of Runeterra - Card game by Riot Games

    Yeah I watched that, so far I have found the episodes pretty entertaining and informative. I think Ezreal probably needs to be like " Nexus Strike: Create a Fleeting Mystic Shot in hand. For the first (2 or 3) spell you cast this turn, deal 2 to the enemy Nexus." and then possibly buff his stat...
