@Kidfried It really is addicting! Unfortunately, the servers aren't up but there's at least a fairly lengthy career mode. Granted, it's a bit repetitive but considering how fun the core gameplay is, I don't mind that at all.
Trying to play and enjoy a somewhat decent run of King of the Hill for Mortal Kombat 11. Its kind of annoying since other players have been going overboard with crazy combos when they play as Joker, Scorpion and frikkin Noob Saibot. thats all they ever play as.
That and slowly trying to level up my rank for Kombat League. Im almost Champion rank.
I downloaded Don't Starve again. One of the earliest titles I played on the PS4 and one that, despite really liking it, I was never really good at surviving any more than about ten days.
Let's hope I can change that this time around!

@KAIRU I had it on my MacBook and recently had it on my iPhone. Great game.
The aim for me in the early days was to find the buffalo creatures as the poop is one of the key resources to building a good base as you need it for growing seeds and replanting berry bushes. Those are both key to getting you through winter.
And then surviving that first onslaught of the dog enemies around day 10.
Once you get far enough in, it becomes about not getting cocky and doing something stupid. Such a frustrating game when you do one little thing badly and lose a 100+ day game.
@Thrillho It really is some mindless fun, isn’t it?
I think sometimes the spawning of the creatures and animals that you get food and supplies from can be a bit annoying but if you get lucky with a lot of animals close to one another I’m sure that could be incredibly beneficial!
I remember seeing a video of someone who was on Day 1,000 and it wasn’t even a challenge anymore. It was crazy!

@KAIRU Yeah, once you get a certain length into your own game then it's normally your own stupidity that lets you down. My best one I had a main base with a pen for the buffalo to harvest the poop from, solid walls and then loads of traps set up to protect me from the demon dogs. And then little outposts set up around the map for when I ventured further afield.
Another tip is putting the traps for the rabbits just above the holes. It seems to have a much better success rate of catching them than just scattering them about.
@Thrillho Yeah, the traps above the rabbit holes is usually my go-to strategy for catching them.
I’ve never really gotten far enough into the game where I’ve actually gotten a proper base set up. Usually I’m too busy trying not to, well, starve. 😅

Loads of traps to catch rabbits. Put live rabbits into crates at your base. Normally at least two that are full.
Collect as much poop as you can to build farms and fertilise berry bushes you’ve picked up.
Have two crockpots built so you can have food cooking while you go out exploring for the day. Try looking at some online calculators for what combos produce what. Fish sticks are great for health! (And can use twigs to make)
Save as much of the above as you can for winter. Building a thermometer can help you predict when that’s coming.
I m normally survive off berries and carrots for the first few days until I have a base set up with the above all to try and get through that first winter, while also getting some armour and weapons together for that first “invasion”.
@Thrillho Thanks for sharing this! I’ll have to give it a go next time I’m playing.

@HallowMoonshadow Glad you’re enjoying P4G, it’s a gem. It’s one of those games that I look back on fondly, but don’t plan to play again because there’s parts of it that do drag on. As is the case for the series anyways. 😄

I started MediEvil as a bit of Halloween related fun, but I'm actually enjoying it more than I thought I would. It's tricky, but not off-puttingly so, with an endearing, knockabout sense of humour.
Good job, Parappa. You can go on to the next stage now.
Seeing the very good reviews for Talos Principle 2, I decided to try the first one and I like it so far.
Not too difficult for now but I imagine it gets more complicated and there seems to be quite a lot of puzzles to solve.
@HallowMoonshadow I don’t know. Right now I have no plans to play Reload, but I’ve been impulsive with my game playing lately so it’s possible. My backlog is enormous, but that hasn’t stopped me from buying new games and playing them right away.
It been some years since I finished P3. The series used to be one of my favorites, but after P5, I haven’t felt like going back to it. As far as JRPGs go, I’ve been riding the Final Fantasy wave more. Maybe I’m part of the problem, but I haven’t felt compelled by old-school JRPGs recently. And I’m a little off-put that they have been recycling older Persona games and adding expansions (to already really long games, mind you) rather than giving us anything about a true proper next installment in the series. Persona 5 came out in 2016, so like what — over 7 years ago — and we have no info about Persona 6. Instead they keep iterating the old games and porting them all over the place instead.
I don’t mind remakes, remasters, and meaningful expansions. But at some point there needs to be something new.
Sorry, that turned more into a rant than I had planned. 😅 But I know you catch my meaning. At the end of the day, there’s so much other output that I have been happy to just ignore the franchise for a while. Meanwhile Final Fantasy is churning out new content like crazy, even if it’s newly styled action based gameplay. And other developers have taken up the mantle of putting out retro styled JRPGs, like Sea of Stars, all the Tales games, all the Legend of Heroes games, Octopath, etc., etc.
“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.”
@HallowMoonshadow It’s a fine line, for sure, as far as announcing a game too far in advance. And realistically, I think there’s little doubt that Persona 6 is cooking, but it’s just been so long that it’s easy to lose interest. I have no doubt that when details are released it will kickstart the hype, but until then we’ll just stick with the remakes and alternates. I hadn’t heard of Metaphor: ReFantazio but I’ll keep my eyes peeled on that one. I never did finish Trails of Cold Steel, so I could always drop back into that quagmire. 😅 I was discouraged enough by the less than stellar impressions of the second game that I put it on the back burner. ToCS 3 and 4 have received more consistent praise, but I’m not sure how I feel about spending another 150 hours to finally get to the good stuff.
“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.”
Finally back on the gaming horse after nearly a half-year break. Gravity Rush Remastered and Theatrhythm Final Fantasy: Final Bar Line; one before work, the other after. Those platinum trophies will be mine!
@HallowMoonshadow Golden makes a few needed changes. One thing I didn't like about it is how much easier the difficulty curve feels, though. I played through some of P4 on my PS2 years after Golden and have a considerably harder time with it.
