Topic: What PS4 Games Are You Currently Playing?

Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin. I completed DkS3 recently and wanted to go back. Opinions are polarised ,though, some people say it's the best, others the worst. However, one thing everyone seems to agree about, is that the game is ripe for exploration, something that appeals to me.

@Draco_V_Ecliptic A lot of the performance issues have been fixed with the remaster, but for me it has some of the lamest bosses in the series. The DLC areas are very good though.

@JohnnyShoulder Would you agree that there is a lot more scope for exploration than in Dark Souls 3, though?

@Draco_V_Ecliptic Not sure as I've not played them both for ages. I think both feel quite linear compared to the first game. Maybe @Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy would be better placed to comment as she played them both more recently.

Cod MW -
Cacking game so far, didn't get into it at first but a bit of persistence and I'm hooked again.

Star Wars FO -
Christmas pressy off my lad, taking some getting used to but can see me putting some hours into it

About to finish Shadow of The tomb raider, which is kinda mediocre.

I don't usually play multiple games at once, but it was calling to me from its case, so I booted up Horizon Zero Dawn. Early impressions are that this is a game I'm going to enjoy very, very much.

@KratosMD I logged over 300 hours on The Witcher 3... And that is without starting the DLC. I think I've gone over 120 mark with each of the Soulsborne games.

@KratosMD
My clear saved data for trails of cold steel 3 has a play time of 115:53:14. I think the choices you make do have a big impact on the playtime. Whether or not you do the optional missions. Where are use all your bonding points and Whether you have found any of the hidden stuff.

@RogerRoger Excellent stuff. I'm looking forward to reading about your journey through this one-of-a-kind game (well, except for its sequels). I'm expecting you to veer between joy, frustration and despair. I think you'll come through the first one unscathed, but parts of Shenmue II may test your patience if you're anything like me.

The third game is lovely, though... If you can get there!

Beat Resident Evil late last night and really enjoyed the whole game, there was a lot more to it than what I thought and those final few minutes were heart pounding. Will have to do it all again as Chris , but for now I'll concentrate on Tales of Vesperia and CTR. Happy New year everyone!

Playing Soma now, it's kinda disappointing for now, I will give it another go today.

@Arugula Great game. It took me ages to get round to play as a couple of sites I was then visiting regularly scored it low and it put me off.

@Arugula The motion tracker indicates you the way! Use it to find the active mission objective but remember that its beeping attract the Alien!
Best survival ever, IMO.

@Kidfried Tetris Effect is a gem, isn't it? Best version of the game I've ever played. I can only imagine what it's like when played in VR.

@Kidfried That’s awesome! Really enjoyed Tetris Effect too (... 8.62147/10 😜) but I could never get good enough at it to get the full appreciation of all the modes and difficulty levels.
I am intrigued by Obra Dinn. Something about the aesthetic is just attractive.

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy It’s so fascinating to get your DOS II updates. The game sounds like it’s enormous. It will be interesting to see if the quality holds up during the big length of the game’s runtime.

playing ni no kuni remastered.

what a game!
it's very charming especially drippy (he's cute to).

i get that some people might be put off by it's "childish" nature at first glanse but the story and characters are very much able to charm adults aswell.

i must admit that this game is my first JRPG i ever realy played and i'm not disappointed.
combat is fun aswell because of the mix between turn based and action oriented system.

it's also newcomer friendly imo.

since i'm liking this game i might pick up revenant kingdom after beating the first game despite it being rather different gameplay style.

@jdv95 Aww Ni no Kuni's lovely and rather poignant, although surprisingly dark in places. My first PS3 game and platinum. I got the remaster for Christmas so shall need to get to it soon! Revenant Kingdom doesn't have quite the same emotional depth, but is still enjoyable and nice to play through.

@jdv95 @mookysam I was always well jel of ps3 users with Ni no Kuni as I love the studio ghibli art style. This and ff7 remake will most likely be my last games in the genre if I don't like them, I've not had the best of times with JRPGs this gen. 😢

Woah, Code Veronica X is old school. Got to say I’m enjoying it so far but there’s just a wee bit too many zombies for my liking. I prefer my horror games to have meaningful encounters and low health to drive up the stakes. Claire tanks about 12 zombie bites and keeps going. I know she’s hard as nails after 2 but oof, the girl’s a machine.
