@Th3solution I think I only had one point where I just couldn't get Trico to do anything near what I wanted. I found it did feel like trying to get a wild animal to do what you want and it does feel like he becomes more responsive, or you learn how to better "control" him/her, through the game.
@Thrillho Hopefully it was just a series of unfortunate glitches that culminated with Trico freezing in place refusing to jump and trigger what looks like was going to be a cutscene that wouldn’t load because he wouldn’t move to where he was supposed to go. There was a gate on one side and an unclimbable wall on the other, so I was at the mercy of Trico to make the story progress. If this is a fourth wall breaking type of lesson the game is teaching me, that the entire function of the game ability to work is to be dependent on the randomized whims of an animal AI, then I guess I don’t have room to complain, but I have a feeling it’s programming error and not the developers intent.
And I’ve had weird programming loops that hinder game progress in other games, it’s certainly not unheard of, but no matter when it happens, it’s annoying. Trico just happens to be the easy thing to blame for this particular glitch because he is already unruly. But I’m definitely going to be giving it another go eventually so I can hopefully progress to the point that it all makes more sense.

@Th3solution Trico was designed to be disobedient but not random at the start. It is going be a bit frustrating by design. You have to earn Trico's trust and create a bond with it. But what you've explained doesn't sound like anything I experienced in the game, and does seem like a glitch or something. You've mentioned this in a few games that you had pretty unique glitches/bugs, so it could be something to do with your ps4? I think you've said yours is a launch ps4, so maybe try giving it a clean or rebuild the database. I know you probably do that anyway, but maybe it due for another session of tlc.

@JohnnyShoulder Ugh... you’re probably right. I didn’t think about that. I haven’t done a database rebuild in a while, maybe 3 months or more. I hate doing it because it screws up my folders and I have to reorganize my XMB again every time.

Today I've been playing Warhammer 40,000 Inquisitor: Martyr that I was gifted for sectret santa.
I've had my eye on it for a while as I've been wanting a Diablo like experience again.
Very glad I have it. As with most of the 40k games, it's not the most polished thing you will ever play. That said, a Diablo like game dripping in 40k lore is right up my street! 😁

Finished with Death Stranding so now I'm jumping between Resident Evil 2, Kingdom Hearts 3 and Assassin's Creed Black Flag. I picked up the latter in the sale and I seem to have purchased its season pass at some point, I did play it in the early PS4 days but I don't think I got very far. I just remember liking the ship battles so thought I'd give it another go.
Kingdom Hearts 3 is a gorgeous game, I just need to keep switching my PRO into 1080p mode for a nice little performance boost. I've got up to Tangled and have little idea what is going on bit it's a lot of fun and my 3 year old loves it.
Finally Resi 2 is just bloody brilliant and I bear it at launch on the other console but I'm now playing it where it belongs and I intend to try to get all of the unlockables.
This lot should keep me going until after Christmas
Older than I care to remember but have been gaming since owning a wooden Atari 2600 and played pretty much everything inbetween.
Jumped back on Assassin's Creed Origins after over a year of not playing it lol. It always amazes me how quickly I can pick the controls again after such a length of time. I have no idea what is going on in the story though! I have a vague recollection of parts. Graphically I don't think it has aged terribly well with the character models look a bit plastic. I've noticed that with a couple Ubisoft games, with both Ghost Recon games. I like the combat, it feels more natural than previous games and the enemies act in a more human way too.

After watching a mate play it briefly on his saturn back in 96. I've finally started Resident Evil, been on it a few nights now and just got the mansion key from behind the grandfather clock, no idea where it will go though as all doors I have yet to open require the shield key. Great game though!
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.

As @JohnnyShoulder says @Draco_V_Ecliptic I have played them more recently. I'm halfway through Dark Souls II: Scholar Of The First Sin on PS4 but put it on hold for the time being for other games.
There's a lot more areas in DS II though to compensate they are a lot shorter then the areas in DS III.
Plus for player progression it starts off with four or so different routes you can go (Though it's pretty clear which order you're supposed to tackle them in) but at the halfway point it becomes more linear.
Like all the souls games though there is still a good amount of exploration with secrets and stuff. It probably has the most varied looking locales in the series too.
The DLC areas are a bit better made then the main game too I think (Hadn't started them in my recent playthrough though)
I do also agree with @JohnnyShoulder that it relies on "Dudes in armour" for boss design a bit too much.

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.
Good job, Parappa. You can go on to the next stage now.
@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.

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.
