Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 316

Star wars fallen order on ps4 and I am setsuna on switch! Watch yo hands!

I'm going with Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen (On PS4) with some bursts of Dragon's Crown Pro and Iconoclasts between it.

Hope everyone has a great weekend and stays safe!! 😁

Pretty much the same as last weekend. Some of these depots in Death Stranding take way longer than others to get to 5 stars. Control is really impressing me still.

Feel like escaping to the wild west so might chill out in Red Dead later. Maybe do some fishing.

Diablo 3, completed hardcore mode last weekend, so I'm doing bounties, while upgrading character's from each class, has I work towards the platinum.

This weekend I am a humble blacksmith's son named Henry and I'm out to avenge the murder of my Mother, Father and the tavern wench who I was seeing.

Hope all is ok @get2sammyb

Looking forward to your review of Persona 5 Royal @ShogunRok. Definitely glad you are holding off on your review until you have sampled all the new content!

I am hoping to finish DQ11 finally. Im 100 hours in, but about ready to wrap it up and play something else before FF7 comes out

Persona 5 but man I wish I had done some research before playing it. Didn't know the layout of a Palace beforehand and how to tackle one.

A lot of trial and error involved but once you get into it then it becomes quite an addictive game!

Will also fire up AC Odyssey again and probably play Days Gone for a bit. Feels quite topical although I don't own a bike nor a melee weapon. Shame as the latter would come in handy when shopping at my local Tesco's.

😉

Stay safe everyone, wash your hands, use common sense and we can get out of this mess.

Far cry new dawn and some good old sims 4. Stay safe everyone.

Sonic Forces, more fun so far than the 4/10 review score here had me expect! 🙂

Horizon Zero Dawn, a post-apocalyptic open-world action game set in the near - I mean, distant future.

Trial of mana demo.its a good game especially duran as the main character.resident evil 3 remake demo.amazing game and graphics.assasins creed odysey.another amazing games with great gameplay story and graphics.and the legendary dark souls 3.im having a blast especially playing as a sorcerer.word life.word is bond.word to your mother.word ☝ up son

AC Liberation.

Tbh i'm just playing games to pass the time time untill resi3 comes out.

DOOM Eternal obviously!

Animal Crossing on Switch. Resident Evil 2 on PS4.

Doom Eternal, such a good game 🤠😎

Monster Hunter World: Iceborn!

Having a blast and finally my bow build is coming together.
Trying to master some Dual blades and Charge blade in between the missions of Iceborn.

Assassins Creed Odyssey I’m taking advantage of a free trial. I’m probably not going to get the full version but it’s good enough that I’m going to sinking as much time into it if I can before it expires.

Once I get the day one patch downloaded, I'll be slaying demons in Doom Eternal.

When I'm not being distracted by Animal Crossing, I'll be working my way through Yakuza Kiwami 2

My weekend will be dealing with my sick son. Quite the snotty little guy. And luckily we are pretty rural in terms of huge populations so Im not quite freaking out about COVID 19. Hopefully i can sneak in a little ApeOut

Nioh 2....such an amazing game. "another try and I ll go to bed.... S#&t is 3 a.m.!"

Rhythm Paradise, I'm on the final rhythm game so should be done with it this weekend. Also grabbing some collectables that I missed in Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair, and playing some more Super Smash Bros Ultimate.

My PS4 should see a lot more action than in recent weeks, as I want to get back into Hitman 2 and try out the dlc expansion missions. Plus there's that Resident Evil 3 Remake demo. It's probably not the kind of game that I'll be keen on, but perhaps the demo could prove me wrong.

I just stopped playing AC Odyssey, Witcher 3, Fallout 4, Dishonored DotO all of a sudden because I realized RDR2 is where my heart is. Still on my 3rd playthrough as a not nice dishonourable Arthur with a horse named Mr. Brown. He's so cruel he even makes fun of people stuck in bear traps.

Oh yes and I stopped playing my recently bought MHWorld because it got stale and Capcom has the WORST update system. It says my MHWorld is corrupted after an uninvited update popped up. Plus with SFV you're basically downloading the whole game again each time there's an update. Those 2 Capcom games are just sleeping on my HD.

Still playing Borderlands 3, which is keeping me from Nioh 2.
Also picked up PES2020 in the sale, might play a few games just to have some weekend footie😭.

@Stevethejedi I really enjoyed I Am Setsuna. It wasn't the second coming of Chrono Trigger like some hoped but it was a very enjoyable experience. Also the music caught a lot of flack but I loved it

I'm starting Yakuza 0, time to beat up some punks.

I've been playing a lot of demos just lately..Resident Evil 3,Moving Out,Trials Of Mana and Disaster Report 4...all of them have confirmed if I'll be buying them or not.
I'm off work isolating for two weeks so providing all is well ill be getting through a good portion of gaming time..
Ps4
Trails Of Cold Steel 2,
My Time In Portia,
Jedi Fallen Order.

Switch
Stardew Valley.

@kyleforrester87. Go try it now playa.stay safe out there.word ☝ up son

Not DOOM Eternal, because Amazon flat out didn’t ship my copy, telling me it’ll arrive on April 20th now. My guess is this will happen with all big releases in the next 3 weeks (RE3 and FF7R I’m looking at you...)

Animal Crossing: New Horizons and DOOM 64. Hours and hours of those two games, I expect.

Animal Crossing

DOOM Eternal. The game is freaking awesome.

Animal Crossing NH until the point where you have very little new to do. Then it will be either RDR2 or AC Odyssey and some easy games to try and lower the amount I have downloaded. Plenty of space on 1TB hard drive but it's kinda annoying having 30 incomplete games.

I hate to be that guy buuuuuut won't be touching my ps this weekend my partner has been laid off suddenly due to the economic situation and I've cancelled all my preorders for now 😢 can't bring myself to start any of the demos, keep safe guys and enjoy your gaming ❤️

Finished Resident Evil 2 so now starting Jedi Fallen Order

Animal Crossing on Switch
RDR2 (maybe a bit of AC: Odyssey too) on PS4

@playstation1995

I'm playing the game of work as much as possible to make as much money as possible in case my state goes on lockdown!
I forgot all about the resident evil 3 demo. Thank you for reminding us brother!

Finishing the later dungeons in links awakening. Damn I love how these old games don’t hold your hand and actually make you think! Is so much more rewarding working out a puzzle like that...

Toilet Paper Tycoon

Some star wars Jedi fallen order, keeps throwing me as it looks like uncharted at some points but you can see its souls style DNA. Hopefully some more gta 4, righteous niko! Stay safe everyone and minimise your physical social contact, play games!!

Playing assassin creed odyssey before the free trials ended on pc and ps4, playing as alexios on pc, cassandra on ps4, it's pretty fun 😃

Edit: And just playing river city girls on pc, it's discounted on switch for $20 but it's only about $6 on steam, which is a steal I think. I plan to buy it on ps4 but it's not discounted on psn.

Oh and I forgot, playing deedlit in wonder labyrinth, it's a early access metroidvania games set in record of lodoss war world, it's like homage for castlevania sotn, the game is good 😃

Smash Brother ultimate and maybe some Mario oddsey. Waiting for salary as i will but animal crossing new horizon

@Ralizah How is animale crossing? Horizon will be my first animal crossing game so im interested in your opinion.

Resi 3 demo is great. I recommend not picking up the firehose until you've explored everywhere because Nemesis is a ruddy nuisance. I've only found 10/20 trophies.

Stuck at home weekend #2

1. ORI Will of the wisps
2. Nioh 2 (in love with this game)
3. DOOM Eternal (got it anyway)

Also a Bunch of Online games to chat with my cousins and co-workers - depending who is on

Division 2: warlords of NYC
BreakPoint: was $17 so everyone could afford it.
F1 2019
MH: Word.

Super Smash Bros. (N64) - Finally going to complete this, so working on unlocking Captain Falcon.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3D (3DS) - I literally just started this and just took control of Shulk.

Assassin's Creed: Altair's Chronicles HD (Windows Phone) - Getting more used to the controls.

@NYJetsfan123 yeah man you got to save up.you dont know whats going to happen or how long this virus will last.i already miss college basketball.i hope by September when the nfl started that this virus will be gone.so i can watch my Pittsburgh Steelers.whats up with your ny jets they should try to resign robie anderson.yeah man.try the demo out.you from new york im from new york also.represents and stay safe out there.you and your family and friends.word up son

So I've got a dry cough and asked to self-isolate from work. Wow! It's been amazing to catch up with two disney movies a day and swinging like crazy in Spiderman and continue with Geralt in Witcher 3. Stay safe gamers and thanks for keeping us going Pushsquare. Love x

@bbq_boy youok man.thats crazy.hopefully you will fine.get some vicks and some halls it will help out.word up son

Continuing through the awesome FF15. I'm in chapter 9 but taking my time by doing a little skill grinding and side quests along the way to make clean up easier later. I'm still grinding stars in Plants vs Zombies Battle for Neighborville but do have my Wizard Zombie unlocked now. Also mixing in some MK11 trophy hunting too as I work on all 3 plats.

Well with schools closed in Ireland, I’ve plenty of gaming time on my hands. I picked up Animal Crossing this morning to check out what all the buzz is about because it’s all Twitter is talking about right now! I’ll also be playing through Ghost Recon Wildlands which I’m really enjoying, it’s a great time sink in the current situation. Throw in some BF V, Apex, Warzone, Football Manager, Witcher 3 replay and Skyrim replay and I won’t be bored anyway! I’ve also need to keep going with Ori an then Blind Forest too before I start Will of the wisp.
Stay safe everyone!

@ApostateMage I really couldn’t get into KC: Deliverance even though it seemed right up my street, just didn’t enjoy the combat at all 😔

DOOM eternal. It's amazing!

Dark Souls Remastered, Kingdom Hearts Final Mix and Pokémon Emerald

Finally finished Greedfall yesterday (enjoyable but no classic. Too much annoying backtracking, terrible level design, 6/10, will be an ideal PS plus title)
So I'm free to start Doom Eternal. And more Doom Eternal. And some more. With a smattering of Grid thrown in.
Stay safe guys, let's hope civilization returns to normal asap ( feels weird typing that, strange times we live in 😢)

I'm playing ME: Andromeda and WRC 8. Both good games. I know, I know. I miss ME, probably the reason why £'m enjoying Andromeda. Good combat, great graphics (HDR) and lacklustre plot. WRC 8 is such a breath of fresh air in terms of tracks after 250+ hours of Dirt Rally 1 and 2. Stay safe everyone!

Finishing Ori 2 and i will try the RE3 Demo.

E to the s to the o

@Hego Aye, the combat takes some getting used to but it's actually pretty decent when you get to grips with it. The archery is a bit naff, though.

@bbq_boy Hang in there!. My cousin got self isolated in Connecticut. She on day 6, living off Disney + also. Been telling her to become a gamer since we were 6. Much easier to stay put for the gaming community.

@Grumps859 exactly the same opinion on Setsuna!

Purchased Doom Eternal but currently playing Fairy Fencer F, which I'm absolutely loving.

@Sanquine Animal Crossing games are very chill and burrow themselves into your daily gaming life. The thing to keep in mind is that you can't binge it: there's not a lot to do at first, but over a week or two, your basic gameplay options will gradually open up if you keep engaging with it, and over a period of weeks and months, new stuff will keep popping up. This is putting aside scheduled seasonal events and holiday stuff, which can often extend over many days (there will be side-questy things you can do in Winter and near Christmas, for example).

I've only spent a few days with this newest one (since it literally just released, lol), but I'm really impressed with the increased customizability, QoL improvements, and the gorgeous presentation on and off the TV.

I hope you have fun with it. There's just nothing quite like one's first Animal Crossing game, and this is going to be the best one yet.

Doom 64 of course.

@Ralizah Thank jou doe your elaborate answer! Super exicted right now!!!

More Nioh 2 getting better at not getting killed as much lol l. Really need to finish up several games that are close to completion but I probably won't. Jedi Fallen Order, Tales of Berseria, Dragon Quest 11 just to name a few. RE3 and FF7 are so close and no word on if Best Buy are delaying those deliveries so I'm hoping not

Picked up Doom Eternal, has to get it in digital as Amazon won’t deliver the game till next Thursday for some reason and we are not meant to go to the shops. Played a bit of it, great typical and tough Doom, love it!!

DOOM Eternal and cleaning up some substories in Yakuza 3 remastered (completed the main story) before moving on to Yakuza 4 remastered.

Going through all the main missions on hard in Division 2, not too bad solo. Noticed Jedi Fallen Order is on a weekend store sale so picked that up for something to go at during the week.

@MaskedKami I'm playing Dark Souls Remastered as well. How far in are you? I am just before the Belfry Gargoyles, soul farming in Undead Parish. Are you familiar with the Guts mangaka?

@Draco_V_Ecliptic I'm currently in the Depths and I'm trying to defeat the boss. I'm sadly not familiar with Guts mangaka.

Games I'm Playing:

• Nioh 2
• Doom Eternal
• Animal Crossing: New Horizons
• Far Cry 5
• Exit the Gungeon

I'm loving Doom Eternal and Nioh 2, but Far Cry 5 has surprised me. It's just a ton of fun and I like how open world it is. It's a cheeseburger type of game (satisfying and filling and a bit predictable) but in this very weird time we live in, it's what I need.

@playstation1995

I am from new York brother. Born and raised. I left about ten years ago though.... I live in the Northeast now. I really hope the Jets resign Anderson. He's a great receiver. Stay safe out there

@MaskedKami Cool, I liked the depths during my first attempt at the game, which took place a year or so ago. What I really liked ,though was the boss fight with Ornstein and Smough, so you've got that to look forward to. I think it's a great game, the mangaka is actually called Berserk, and it's what Dark Souls is loosely based on. I'm opting for a Berserk Guts build for NG+, If I can only make it that far...

@Draco_V_Ecliptic I have heard great things about that fight. I just have to beat the Gaping Dragon, so I can move on in the game. I'm doing a claymore build

DOOM ETERNAL AWSUME GAME WITH SO MANY BUGS

@Agramonte thanks man. Hope your sister recovers soon. Corvid sucks but staying at home is a great opportunity to play those games!

@playstation1995 thanks man. Feeling way better now except been called back to work. Oh man and Ff7 remake is just around the corner!! Stay safe all.
