@Kidfried Lol, exactly.
As a value proposition it seems hard to justify buying all that extra content. But I guess someone out there will do it. Perhaps it’s no different than someone dropping $6000 on a trip to Disney World or a tropical vacation. Once it’s over, all you have are the memories.
Still, to me it seems an awful huge investment on just one game. 😋

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy Did you play Injustice 2? I think I’m going to play that to scratch my next fighter itch. The complete edition is going cheap and I like the DC comic lore better than the MK characters.

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy It may be a while until it hits $5. 😋 you can barely find Injustice 1 for that. But I have seen IJ2 Legendary Ed for like $15 on sale at retail. Usually it’s $30. Now that MK11 is out maybe they’ll discount it more quickly tho.
Depends how many players spend $6000 on the upgrades 😂

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy The day is closing in on being over almost for me, but I can’t leave that question hanging in the air like that ... so — doing fine, thank you.
... oh, and MGSV:TPP is the best Metal Gear game. 😁

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy Ha, ha! I was mostly just goading you. 😄
Actually, if I’m consistent with my previous posts somewhere in the past on these forums I’m pretty sure I’ve established my preferences as MGS3 was the best and MGS5 was second. It’s been a long time and I need to replay Snake Eater for sure. And I actually never played 2 to completion I don’t think. That should be my priority is to get a better full playthrough of Sons of Liberty.

@Rudy_I used to buy and sell copies of Twin Snakes at one point, you could get it for a tenner on Gumtree and sell it for £50 elsewhere. Then people cottoned on. Still, I made a couple of hundred out of it lol.
I've beaten MGS, Sons of Liberty, Snake Eater, and Guns of the Patriots multiple times over several years.
I've yet to beat Phantom Pain even though I've owned it for two years.
To be fair, Phantom Pain is amazing until you hit chapter 2.

@DerMeister I’ve said this on the forums before, so I apologize if it comes across as redundant, but I actually really liked the ending of The Phantom Pain. The reveals made at the end were a great payoff, imo. I know that there supposedly was a third chapter that was planned and Kojima wasn’t allowed to finish it the way he originally wanted, but if you didn’t know that, then the story wouldn’t seem the least bit incomplete. Yes, the mission structure suffers a lot in that second half and the repetition is hard to defend. But the narrative is really good to me. Maybe I’m just too dense, but I didn’t see that twist coming! I won’t spoil it since you haven’t finished it, but it really does wrap the story up pretty well.
Not sure where else to post this, but a couple days ago, the towers in Mortal Kombat 11 got that patch it needed. For those who don't know, the Towers of Time mode was plagued by rough difficulty, and overall felt stacked against the player. After the patch, it's now far more manageable. The AI is easier, the modifiers against the player seem to have been nerfed (Notably, the assists have longer cooldowns), the koins for dragon challenges have been increased (previously, you got 100 koins for each dragon challenge, now it's 1000), and prices for the boxes in the krypt have been reduced a bit, so now the game feels less grindy.
Felt I should post it, as I haven't seen an article here about it.

@RogerRoger I will be heading to IKEA this Monday so that night I will be building more flat pack. Already built and entire bedroom last month BUT as a bonus I treated my self to a new OLED TV to place on the furniture I built
Playing Dark Souls 1 at the moment, made it all the way through the catacombs and that other pitch black area (tomb of giants?) came to a locked door. I thought the second bell was down there 😂 horrific trying to get out again. Took hours falling about in the dark. Found a torch eventually which helped. I think I did that area way early lol
@kyleforrester87 Ha ha yeah I think most people go that way when they first play Dark Souls. I didn't go there till much later in the game. I know some people hated, but I really liked it, proper scary like.
Life is more fun when you help people succeed, instead of wishing them to fail.
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.
