That daily game progress thread...

[KAC]

Got a mix of platforms and games going..

Remnant: From the Ashes
Bloodborne again
Nioh (again)
Horizon ZD

After these I want to start another Witcher run, all games and DLC.

I need time....

If you keep playing the same games again how will you get time?

[Lazy8s]

No kidding lol.

Remnant and Nioh are my daughter and son in laws faults. The first is a ton of fun co-op and Nioh...well....my son in law can't get past the 1st level, so I'm going in to save him

BB and HZD are just all time favorites that demand a replay. Besides, I never did HZD's DLC, so I have to get that done...

Love my old games too

I think Sony should do a pass and then I am golden.

They do, it's Playstation Now.

Been playing Brutal Doom V21 on my MAC whilst waiting to settle my new house which happens in 10 days.

God I love that mod.

[Jaillum Malord]

Currently playing Resident Evil 7 which I got for £4 off Windows Store. I am actually really enjoying this game which is surprising as the demo put me off when i played it when it was released.

I am getting the same feeling I got when I stumbled unto the Resident Evil 4. I got RE4 to deal with my pangs after enjoying the RE5 demo when it came out initially. RE7 is very immersive.

[twonha]

Started playing The Talos Principle. Having finished its first 'world', I feel its square tetris puzzles are already overstaying their welcome. The game had better step up its freshness on a different level than just the look of the world.

The Talos Principle stepped up. Great game, proper puzzles. I'm pleased that I was able to run through the main part of the game without once looking up a solution or using a hint. Go me!

It's a bit of a shame that the game has three separate endings that you can't get to easily from the late game, unless you knew beforehand what to do with the last checkpoint. I chose to watch the other endings on YouTube. It's clear the game 'wants' one particular ending to happen, but it's easier to get to the simplest one.

[Jaillum Malord]

Also playing Ryse: Son of Rome which is getting better than I thought it would. Not bad at all.

[Megaman]

Got keys to my new place yesterday, got the net working and now back into The Outer Worlds.

I finished Talos a while back. Really enjoyed it and, along with the Portal games, think it's one of the best puzzle adventures I've played.

I didn't however know about different endings. Like you I never needed a guide so I never read up on it. I'll have to go now and look into it now that you've made me aware there are other outcomes.

Throughout the entire game you're torn between two characters: the Godlike voice that asks compliance, and the computer terminals that ask defiance. So that there were multiple paths was clear, but the outcomes are not. Enjoy!

Looking at the wiki it seems I got what might be described as the best option.


I remember the god / devil voices but I guess it never occurred to me that it was a real choice rather than a simple narrative device. It's nice to find that sometimes games do offer more depth than is apparent.

[Jaillum Malord]

Completed Resident Evil 2: Remake again but this time i reversed play through opting to start with Clare this time.

Just started playing Yooka-Laylee and the impossible lair which is surprisingly quite fun.

[twonha]

Started playing Assassin's Creed: Odyssey. From what I can tell, reaching anything resembling a solid 60fps is going to be impossible for my 1060 3GB, unless I turn the settings to "your computer is older than Sparta".

First impressions aren't very good. The voice acting is dreadful, with high-pitched screaming actors everywhere. The UI is cluttered as heck on occasion, especially when attacking large, important places. I would much rather have had a clean interface without so much to "do" on screen. AI doesn't seem particularly bright and the combat feels a bit disconnected or twitchy. Can't really put my finger on it. Gameplay overall feels similar to Origins though, which I ended up loving, so this is probably going to be another 100-hour trek murdering and slaughtering my way from town to town.

[Jaillum Malord]

Been playing Dead Cells since and wow is this game addictive.....and frustrating at the same time which I suppose adds to that "one more go" quality.

its also way longer than you expect too. There is more story and stuff locked behind really hard difficulty spikes. So even after you complete the game normally, you still need to achieve it through 5 more difficulties

[KAC]

Still boning MW. Other than Megaman’s and Munkus’s mums.

[Ziklitschli]

Marvel vs Capcom Infinite with kids. This game is insanely fun to play, no matter your skill level. Best fighting game ever for me, and I don't even like Marvel or care for Capcom chars that much (they work great in this format tough).

[AluminumHaste]

I started playing Crosscode last night, I'm totally hooked, it's great.

[AluminumHaste]

They also just added new content for starting levels, a whole new zone out of the starting area and new bosses.

It's great content. You now have 3 options out of the starting area. It's nice to get new content without having to have 4 cells unlocked.

[Drexion]

Hit L70 on my Wolcen character. After playing PoE for quite some time it felt great to be playing an arpg which didn't revolve around 1-shot mechanics. The game has a lot of potential but some bugs/glitches/non-functioning passives hinder its replayability. Hopefully the devs will put their recent success of being a steam bestseller to good use and maybe 6 months to a year from now the game will be in a better state. (Even it's current glitchy state the game is quite fun to play, but I won't recommend it to anyone until they fix some of the issues)

Started playing Jedi Fallen Order, though quite early in the game. First thoughts are: I like the "Souls-like" design of the levels, but the combat feels a bit clunky. Almost like a euro-jank game, which is not something you'd expect from a big budget tripleA title.

[Athena]

Played tons of games and managed to finish nothing. I need to stick to one game and spend less time on the online games. lol

[Kain]

Completed the single player campaign of Titanfall 2 yesterday. Pretty damn good stuff.

Currently playing Demon's Souls on PC using emulator. Have it on my PS3 and got halfway through the Valley of Defilement last year and wanted to do a new play-through recently when i realised that some clever clogs released the 60fps patch. Currently having a blast with this and just killed the Red Dragon by cheesing it on the bridge the long way. What a releif cause that thing was frickn annoying!

Also playing Salt and Santuary and it is a blast. Sunk about 20 hours so far and currently at that Witch boss......pain-in-the-A. Surprised FromSoftware has not sued the devs cause it is literally daylight robbery what they have done. Oh well....more souls-like for me I suppose.

2 of my all time favorites

I absolutely loath that witch lol. She does have a major weakness though....does she still float offscreen where you can't see/hit/avoid her? that was the worst.

Done.

Got Skyrim VR.
See you all in six months. LOL
(Seriously though, it's pretty good. I was a little worried about VR Sickness as I can't play Minecraft VR, but the FOV change when moving and snap turning seems to do a good job, thoroughly enjoying it thus far)

Had it since christmas 2017, tried it once with the move controllers and hated it. Since I've been in quarantine, I decided to wipe my save (played about 45 minutes) and start again with the PS4 controller... Can't restrain myself I play at least 3-5 hours every day when the kids an my gf are asleep. Haven't done that since my 20's

So much fun, so much to do and the atmosphere in dungeons and old fortress is very well done in VR. Got a few scare a couple of times.

Really happy to finally play it !

[Drexion]

Leveled a ice nova Templar/Hierophant in Path of Exile delirium league, but the 'timer' they have on the mechanic kinda ruins the experience. Their response so far is that they have no plans to remove it, so I don't see player retention being high this league as it mostly plays just like Standard.

[theshadowcult]

How does it ruin it? I dont see that at all, and i have a mediumish speed build

[Apocalypsee]

I exclusively played Borderlands 3 after it came out on Steam. Co-op with my friends, but I have a lot of problems with SHiFt and crashing when co-op. Single player is fine mostly. Level 41 right now, damn this game is REALLY LONG. This is as tiresome as playing Serious Sam 2.

[Drexion]

How does it ruin it?

Many reasons, but probably the most prominent is that unless you're in a linear map, which the vast majority are not, you will lose the effect too soon unless you want to waste time backtracking for pickups. Making the league play just like Standard. The numerous threads on the sub about it (like this one) have a lot more discussion on the issue, especially the multiple aspects of the game which the timer ruins.

The problem is the drops. The solution is all drops during the mist should drop at the end with the delirium rewards. League solved.

I couldn't imagine playing with a controller, didn't even know that was an option in the VR version... Actually swinging a sword, or using a bow, is amazing! Added in some mods so you can see your body, and grab from your holsters is amazing as well.

[Drexion]

The problem is the drops.

The drops are just one part of the problem. The delirium effect often goes in the complete opposite direction of the map's general area, resulting in losing the effect too quickly, covering a small percentage of the map. So map becomes 10% delirium, 90% standard league. Exaggerated example:

[theshadowcult]

Interesting, i have never once seen that issue. Every time, my fog goes with my map, or diagonally adjacent to it.

[Evileh]

Dest 2. Lol light level 1002 now. Sometimes greasy joins me.

Got ahold of house flipper. It's completely horrible but it's so addicting and relaxing. I love how you can bust down the walls. Lol

You're probably playing on PC then... On PSVR, the move controllers suck (no analog stick, so if you want to advance press a button. Want to turn left, press a different button, want to turn right, press another button. Much more intuitive with a controller.

And I didn't like that you could just wave randomly the swords to the enemy's face, not knowing when the hits register.

yeah, no real hit detection is sad, but I just overlook it. Combat is more immersive if you pretend. Also added a dual wielding block mod, where I can hold both swords in front of my in a cross to block/parry. Adds a lot to combat.

Also using a PC, so there's that. Along with the player body mod with weapon slots mean I actually reach for weapons, which is awesome. (Grab bow from over back, clip swords onto my waist, etc. No menus needed!)

Learning how to hot slot shouts with motion commands mod.
