@CaptD well I might well be playing through the dlc missions after all tbh as that Fashionista trophy still hasn’t popped, so hopefully a new island full of locations to loot might get me over the line 🤞
@graymamba
I think that trophy is a bit glitchy, not that it doesn’t pop but it needs a bit more than stated. I’m sure I had a few more than specified as it was starting to concern me.
Keep at it, it will pop.
@HallowMoonshadow Astro Bot is great but I was a little underwhelmed as some of the abilities felt a bit similar and it was the least interesting ones that got used multiple times.
But a wonderful game all the same and a delight to play something that didn’t feel like it had to stretch itself to a 60+ hour experience.
@HallowMoonshadow The time slowing mechanic one wasn’t the most unique but was really well done as well. Some great creativity for the powers and the levels are really well designed around them too.
Finished it up last night from a story perspective. I'll probably still play it from time to time for any side quests that may still appear and the DLC when it drops.
Phenomenal game. I keep going on about this, but I find there to be so much potential in the Warriors/Musou formula. The core gameplay is solid and addictive, and there's so many things you could add to that core to make each game unique. With Age of Calamity's integration of BotW's lore and characters, as well as some of its gameplay mechanics, I struggled to put this one down. It sits firmly between Persona 5 Strikers (#1) and Three Hopes (now #3) as my second favourite Warriors spin-off.
And let's talk visuals / presentation for a second. This game got a lot of flak in 2020 for its performance and...I just don't get it. Maybe there's something I'm not seeing, or the game's received an update or something, but this ran fine for me with the exception of especially demanding moments (and I think a 30 seconds of slow-down in a 30 hours playthrough isn't bad at all really). I was actually blown away by how the Switch could handle so much going on, and with the visual direction of this game - it genuinely had me impressed with the Switch on a technical level in 2025, which is saying something. Plus the cutscenes were fantastic - probably the best in any Nintendo game I've ever played.
Really just a great game with excellent gameplay, presentation and fanservice. Really reminded me why I love BotW/TotK, the broader Zelda series, and Warriors spin-offs. A safe 9/10.
@GirlVersusGame They also did a Terminator game. I've not played it, but have heard slightly more mixed response to that game. But Robocop is great, perfect length too, did not drag on I thought.
Just finished the Iki Island DLC of Ghost of Tsushima, which took me around 12 hours. It was absolutely phenomenal and I'm glad that I played it after having finished the base game. It rounds off the overall story very well. In fact, it felt like a perfect extension of the base game rather than simply extra content. You absolutely have to play it if you want the complete experience of Sakai Jin's story. He's become one of my favourite PlayStation characters.
Really gonna miss playing this game now that it's over.
@LtSarge I’ll have to try out the expansion. I have the platinum (twice, actually), but it’s hard for me to get into DLC when it releases a year or two after the base game. I forget the story, and somewhat lose interest: I’ll replay the entire game before Yotei comes out and play it then.
@Kraven I agree with that, especially in this case. The DLC has a lot of references to the main story and if you haven't played it recently, then you won't remember most of them, which will negatively impact your experience. So I think it's an excellent idea to play through the entire game again and then the DLC. This is one of the few games I can actually consider replaying in the future.
I've stopped buying new releases but I might get Yotei as I love this IP now. Gonna be interesting to see what the game will be like now that the setting is 16th-17th century.
Castlevania Dawn of Sorrow for the Nth time BUT this time on the Dominus Collection. I thought that the seal drawing with the buttons will be awkward, but it was surprisingly comfortable
I've just rolled the credits on Atomfall. Really enjoyable game and I had a genuine blast with it! Some of the dialogue was hilarious and a lot of the outdoor sandbox scenery is very beautiful. Although the gunplay was decent enough, I opted for the more stealthy approach with the bow and arrows - when I didn't run out of arrows, that is, then I'd have to improvise given how scarce resources can be.
It's well worth playing if you've got your eye on it.
@Kairuuu Did you play it on Xbox? I just got a month of Game Pass as I really wanted to check out South of Midnight (and also the upcoming Clair Obscur) but I've also had my eyes on Atomfall, which is also on there, so I might give it a go. It sounds like a cool game.
@LtSarge Played on PS5. Not entirely sure if there are any issues or differences with performance or anything on the Xbox version of the game. It’s definitely worth checking out if you’re able to play it on Gamepass.
