Be appalled, but is it really surprising? We don't ever get a fucking complete game anymore and I feel most devs are dumb as fuck. I expect no game to actually release all that good, and the difference in whether you are good Dev or bad is whether you will listen to your paying customers. Of course, that can backfire as well, but I feel like every single game is released, and then within a year gets massive QOL patch updates. Makes me feel like they don't have a fucking clue what gamers actually want, and just YEET throw it out there knowing they can patch it to fix it. Quite sad.All the Doom talk in here has made me want to finally get to Doom 64. I got the PS4 HD version as a preorder bonus with Doom Eternal. Have always heard great things about Doom 64 and I think it's the only Doom I haven't played at this point. I played all the Wolfensteins too. I guess I'll throw it on the shortlist.
I'm finally done with RL stuff so time to get started. I put on Modern Warfare (2019) to finally do the campaign mode I've read good things about. First the campaign didn't even start, had an "install suspended" bug. Ended up having to install all of the data packs, even the non-campaign ones, to get the campaign to start. I wish they'd just cut it out with the fragmented downloads and stop doing data packs.
After it spent -all day- patching, campaign finally started...and it didn't work. Screen randomly goes black, can't get more than two minutes or so into the first mission without it happening. Sometimes as early as a few seconds. Looked into it and apparently it's an HDR issue. I'm playing on PS5 (and don't have a PS4 anymore) so that may be the issue since it's fine on PS4. I'm going to go to my other place and test it on my non-HDR TV and see if that fixes it, because I really want to play the game.
Still, regardless of how good Modern Warfare is once you finally get into it and can play it, it's kind of appalling that the publisher released it with all of these problems. Installation problems, compatibility, etc. It's the only PS4 game I've had any issues with at all on PS5. The installation problems are found on XBox as well though, that's an across the board thing.
Didn't play nearly as many games this past week in the hotel as I thought I would. Then yesterday my Ps5 got dropped off by UPS, and I loaded up Horizon: Zero Dawn. Looking to finish that before the new one drops. Super invested into the Metro story as well, so will probably end up putting some hours into that as well.
So many games, so little time.
Great game I love Deus ex.I still have to get to Horizon. Got it for free when I worked for Gamestop. Was gonna do it before the sequel came out, but after seeing what Aloy looks like in the sequel, I think I'll just stick to the original, no rush on it now. At least Genshin Impact still has a feminine Aloy, leave it to Japan to keep feminine game characters alive.

Just finished Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Decent game, a lot more linear than I expected though. Note how the news media in the game correctly reports on large-scale riots and Big Pharma being criticized, two things that never happen in the real world in 2020/2021. That's right, a few seconds of this cutscene demonstrates that the news media in the dystopian future game is more accurate than the news media in the present.

Plowing the sequel now.

It’s alright just sucks because the game clearly was cut off and not completed. I still have fond memories of them.Yeah it's definitely an awesome world. Playing Mankind Divided now which I think got bad reviews IIRC, or at least mediocre scores. It definitely seems more "generic" than Human Revolution so far, think I'm around halfway through it since I started it before Human Revolution was done. They got rid of the Pee Filter for visuals which I'm not sure if I approve of, cause at least it made HR look unique.
