@Elodin NSM has sat on my hard drive for so long that I even transferred it from my PS4 to PS5 and still haven't reopened it.
I played it around the era of the Atlas update which introduced the single player "story" but it would be completely unrecognisable to me now. Kudos for them for continuing with such strong support since the poor launch, and it's a shame that the launch is what it will still (rightly or wrongly) be remembered for.
@Thrillho Yeah, bought day one. I enjoyed it back then, but the criticism was deserved. The fact that they kept improving and dropping free dlc for 5 years is impressive. No Mans Sky offers so much more to do now and makes it easy to group up. I'm still discovering new things to do, from pets, to vehicles, to basebuilding options, even quite the variety of new ships. The ship fighting is completely overhauled and enjoyable now. Also many more space anomalies to slow down and discover. Overalll the quality of life improvements this game makes it much easier to jump into. Maybe all this newness will fade, but so far quite impressive. Now off to hunt for a sentinel ship.
@KilloWertz Definitely understand that! Easy for something like this to get lost in the pile of games to play, especially with it being an episodic release and what not. Hopefully you'll get to it at some point sooner rather than later! Did you watch the show or read the books it's based on? It's quite upsetting how many troubles Telltale are already in again even after having just published a game. I'm just praying they actually get The Wolf Among Us 2 out at this point as I've been waiting for years!
@Bentleyma Haha, yeah, I do like the scavenging sections but there's a fair amount of FOMO happening there! I finished the second episode yesterday and it was still on par length-wise with the first for me, but I think a lot of that can be attributed to the fact I was just flying around aimlessly at times rather than actual narrative content. What major choices did you make in the first two episodes? I saved the vault instead of Rayen's leg, spaced Cox and went to bed with Maya. I do quite enjoy the characters in this game so far and Khan might just be my favourite after this second episode. Her story and the actor's delivery of it when you give her the cigar was incredibly touching.
Finishing up Remnant 2 (trophy hunting now), but I think I am going to move onto either FF3 or start Spider-man (I know, I know, but I just never got around to the first one).
@Tjuz I haven't watched or read anything from The Expanse, but my interest in sci-fi and games like it make it any easy choice at some point. How soon I get to it depends on if it goes on sale at all during the holidays and how long it takes me to finish other games before Final Fantasy VII Rebirth comes out.
Yeah, I'm hoping we still get The Wolf Among Us 2 still at some point. I didn't play the first one until years after it came out (I think a year or two ago), but I did enjoy it and would definitely play the sequel at some point.

I’m currently playing Alan Wake 2. I think I’m getting closer to the end - I’m probably 70-75% complete. I’m hoping to get the platinum by the end of this week!
@KilloWertz Fair enough! I do wonder how you'd get along with the game not being exposed to any prior Expanse media. I think the main story so far is very easy to follow, so there's no issues there, but there's a lot of discussion and collectibles that talk about the lore of the universe without necessarily explaining the basics. Some of it I'm sure is fairly easy to piece together, but I'm interested by how it might affect someone's enjoyment if they don't already have knowledge of the greater lore. Let me know if and when you do eventually get to it! If you ever feel like giving the show a shot however, the first three seasons are absolutely worth it.
@BentleymaHaha, I am a person who tends to enjoy picking the more "dramatic" choices in games, so to speak. In this case though, I think I was not a monster but justified in both scenarios! It was established that they were almost running out of supplies, they had prosthetics on board and that it was Rayen's own stupidity that got him into the situation in the first place. This way I help the crew as a whole by saving the supplies we desperately needed, have no major consequence for Rayen as he just gets to enjoy a brand new prosthetic and he gets to learn a valuable lesson about scavenging! A win-win! Though if you really think I was a monster for making the choice, you'll be glad to know I soon received karmic justice as last episode Maya died as a result of my actions. Welp. As for Cox... he deserved it. Sabakawala.
Baldur's Gate 3, obv. But I've been experimenting with PS game streaming, and booted up Weird West the other day (looks alright), and TLOU remastered. And with the UK weather and dark nights drawing in, I'm getting quite tempted to play TLOU properly soon 😱
@CJD87 Yes, it is extremely beautiful! Also, it runs so damn well!
I admit that it is so easy compared to the other soulsborne games but that is because it is the first one. Also, it is confusing as hell especially the Tendency stuff! I had to look up guides and tips, just like with every other souls game I have played!
