I'm playing on "Easy" and started in Egypt for the "For the Sake of Glory" bonus, which is faster repairs on mechanical stuff.
I think I am nearing the end of the second month and I have almost enough beam weapons for everyone. I think I am just missing a gunner beam weapon.
I still find that I do a little scumming just because some of the missions are so crazy. I have definitely had to accept that soldiers are going to be wounded and I'm not going to be able to run favorite group every mission. I think I'm at about 33 non-rookies in month 2.

First couple of months are definitely about promoting as many rookies as possible without compromising missions. Godspeed sir! Good luck with the Mutons.

I bought Witcher 3 on special for PS5 for $9
I am 6 hours into it and I hate it. Way too much dialogue. Clunky combat systems and I cannot figure out to properly configure the character's weapons and stock.
I have 5 level up points I cannot do shit with.
Yeah, I'm probably retarded. Going to bail on it. It's no HZD that's for sure. Wasted 6-7 hours and $9.

I looked into this but it didn't seem at all like a tactical squad combat / military strategy game. Some kinda weird diplomacy shit?

I thought I was the only one who didn't get much out of Witcher 3.
I liked Witcher 2 fine, then when I played Witcher 3...I dunno, it never clicked. Think I spent like 15 hours on it before I totally lost interest. Have heard ever since that it's incredible and I should give it another chance, so I will. I like the characters/world a lot.
In other news, sick today so I finished TLOU2. Playing the final act while sick was super fitting. What a grungy, depressing game.

Think a lot of it has to do with getting to a part of the story that resonates with you. The baron quest line grabbed a lot of peoples attention, or the tower in the middle of the lake etc. But everyones different cause I hate some games some people love, too.

It's grand strategy with ship combat, although it does seem like the focus is largely on diplomacy in the beginning until you tech up and expand into the solar system.

Still in EA. I liked Long War and Phoenix Point was decent, so, unless it is just trashed in reviews, I will play this as well, when it's out of EA.
I liked all three of the Witcher games, but I thought the second was the best overall. The combat in 3 was better, but it felt too Grand Theft Auto inspired and many areas had little point or absolutely no affect on the main story. Like the Witcher 3, I enjoyed the main narratives of GTA, but not the GTA side missions. They feel like busy work that a HS substitute teacher makes you do on a sick day.

Played it for 15 minutes and could not figure out the first objective. I also thought it looked like shit. I might have been drinking.

I have Tunic in my favorites, was going to pick it up if it ever goes on discount. How was it? What was GOTY worthy about it?
Elden Ring is phenomenal, you might suck.
I'm also eyeing Tactics Ogre: Reborn, but I'm battling my sense of being over the 16bit graphics thing so many games have been doing. You'd think a remake/remaster could bring it up to speed.

Definitely agree here. It's still a great game, but it calling it 'Reborn' (and, more importantly, charging $50) should have meant using their HD-2D engine like Triangle Strategy.

this it’s where I’m playing it
12 hours and 54 minutes in it’s the best top down game I’ve played in many years. I absolutely love it! As a zelda fnatic I was drawn gm it but it honestly stands on it’s on as so much much. Best Indy title of 2022. Try it out.
