I will try strike zone. Seeing ball movement in the Show has always been a struggle for me compared to older baseball games.

May the force be with you.

...and picked up Vrising on sale. I'll slowly build my castle

Excited to play MLB. I'm terrible at these games, but still enjoy it. No matter what view I choose for the batting view I still can't read the pitch well enough. I see if I can take my Brewers to the lead in the division like they are now.

Free to play would help, but ultimately it has nothing making it stand out. May be make a movie out of it and then rerelease it.

Impressive and completed in such a short time

I would have picked it up, but it's too close to Star Wars Outlaws release. I'll get it down the line at a slight discount.

The screen shake is an issue, as was Black Desert Online. I played a decent amount of BDO and got used to the screen shake where after awhile I barley noticed it. The issue I had with BDO was the crazy amount of pop in. Now that was on ps4, but clips I've seen of BDO on ps5 did the same. Hopefully that is much less in Crimson Desert. I am looking forward to it.

Might be a decent Halloween pick up (belated) if the price is right.

Timesplitters! Yes! The moose is loose!

Doing a 3rd playthrough at the moment. I'm going with a Dwarf monk named Kwai-Chang Caine, seeking to find balance in the area. Although he is having trouble being smitten with Laezel. Also in my group is Shadowheart switched to Life Cleric and currently Gale, but may go Halsen as I've used Gale everytime. Waiting for the new patch to go Dark urge for my 4th.

One of only 2 magazines I ever paid a subscription for, Game Informer and Nintendo Power.

I'm having a great time with this game. I'm currently in the middle of it I believe. I really like role playing the wandering ronin in my head. I rarely go to a main story mission unless I stumble across one. Being as easy as it is and the fun wandering make it a great chill game for me. Glad others are at least able to try it and see if they like it.

@JuiceboxMeister I have the ps4 disc version. I have to put it in everytime to play on my ps5 and play it upgraded. I would love the discless version, but im afraid of the issue your describing.

@3Above it's quite nice on ps5 and it systems can handle the heat.

I keep coming back to this game a few times a year. I'm impressed everytime. A great chill game. I'm looking forward to jumping in again.

@vikramsingh if you have played pen and paper d&d games it helps. If not the learning curve is higher. The simplest way is to watch beginner guides on YouTube. That way you will avoid pitfalls or wondering why something doesn't work. The nice thing is you can set many variables to easy in difficulty settings. That way as you slowly learn the systems and can increase the difficulty as you get more comfortable with the systems. I recommend playing turn based instead of live action with pause. It gives you time to see what is happening and how best to use all the magic/items at your disposal. I recommend the angel mythic path for your first playthough as it seems the story was most meant for that choice. Once again youtube guides can help you there. A big difference between pathfinder wotr and bg3 is bg3 stops leveling. Pathfinder you can get into god like powers, especially with the mythic paths. It is all part of the story. It makes sense in game as your taking on strong demons.
There is also 2 parts to the game. The large overview map where you have battles vs demons with armies to unlock paths and then just your main group which is more traditional. I recommend having auto for your play through for the large army battles. It keeps it simple and the ai does a decent enough job. Hopes some of this helps feel free to ask for more specifics.

Anyone who will be playing Pathfinder Wraith of the Righteous and has questions, I'd be happy to help. I have put many many hours into the game and am very familiar with Pathfinder rules. It is less forgiving than BG3, but still a great game.

@Illyrian @FinneasGH as am I. Looking to Roleplay a ambitious lad looking to make a name for himself and some glory

A gift that keeps on giving

Sad to see spell force leave. I tried it for a bit, but the controls were a bit wonky and I didn't have the patience for it at the time. It looked like a fun game though. Maybe ill buy it on a cheap sale.

I agree with the annoying zooming to the end on missions. At least they make you stop a couple times before moving on. Also partly my fault as im terrible with the grappling rope. Game is fun for a 20 min run though. Will keep playing as a casual game.

Still enjoying it as a casual play. It might be my new goto for a quick 20 min game play. It has been a long time for me with Star Wars Battlefront 2 as that type of game. This seems to fill that adequately.

I'm enjoying it. I like the feel of the guns. I'm sure ill drop it when the story ends. The fact that I can play it solo and/or easy to find pop in groups is fun. And it's free. I'd give it a 6.

I'm looking forward to it. Now to decide which faction to favor.

For BG3 fans Pathfinder Wraith of the righteous is a great game! Remnant 2 is also great, even fun solo. I own both of those, but I'm also excited for bannerlord mount and blade

Enjoying it quite a bit. The gunplay and haptic feedback are excellent. Will see if the leveling slows down and other descendents are hard to get after Bunny. For free no need to complain.

Tried playing, server down. I'll try again today. I usually give these a shot if it's fun solo and I drop them at endgame content as that usually need groups.

It could be done well, just not from the Elden Ring game protagonist. The show could start from so many places. Before the breaking would be best. Or even slightly after, with all the factions fighting for the shards power and slowly being corrupted.
To others point I would rather have a conclusion to Game of Thrones. Martin and Rothfuss enjoy watching us all squirm for a conclusion to their books.

Interesting idea. Ill play it when it comes to psplus

@jgrangervikings1 thanks for tip on Super Blood Hockey. Put many hours in the old Nintendo version. I'll pick it up.

Possibility of couch co-op?

@Wiceheid I don't play this mmo. But I appreciate your explanation. I also like your approach from easy runs to hard with you mitigating the chaos. Sounds fun.

A rare pre-order for me as the music
for Star Wars games always pulls me in even with possible mediocre gameplay. I've liked what I have seen so far.

Much better than the reveal trailer. Looks like more Dragon Age. Not day one for me, but leaning sale buy.

It's not my favorite art direction, but I'm still at wait and see.

@HotGoomba yes, everquest

Would be a nice option. Starfield and age of empires I am most looking forward too. Hoping for that anyways.

@JohnnyShoulder second favorite from me, first goes to...
"When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, and he looks you crooked in the eye and he asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yessir, the check is in the mail."

For me, It wasn't as negative as this article shares. Not every state of play is going to be amazing. This was a solid state of play. A few games coming soon and and a few coming next year. Astrobot was my favorite (secretly hoping for a free plus drop) with the 2025 titles a wait and see more gameplay. The format was fantastic as it went from game to game with little chatting in between. This is where it felt like they were listening to fans. Looking forward to more States of Play in the future, no expectations, just show me new games with gameplay and I'll enjoy it.

They keep coming. I'll be jumping back in soon

Yay for couch co-op! I know I'm old but having a friend or family member right next to you is more fun than online. I occasionally can get my daughter to play with me as well. We are on our second run through bg3 together. Hope this has a good story too.

It's fun, but I fear like most the fun only lasts the honeymoon stage. Soon strategies of zones will be figured out and the casual player like me will be bumped out of any fun. Overall the graphics, sounds, zones, and type of missions are fun though.

@Fyz306903 yes, prices on most not listed yet ,but the list of titles is out thanks to psblog.

Might pick up rise of the ronin for $50 or maybe wolong complete edition depending on its discount. Nothing new on the horizon until Star Wars Outlaws for me.

Really looking forward to this. NMS is one my favorite chill games and this looks to possibly fit that mold as well.

Hmm tempted to buy now on-sale. Not sure though as the upcoming dlc as well as the unmentioned in this article, 1.2 patch, that will change some things. Might hold off for another sale around patch time.

....meanwhile back to the question asked. I would like to see a dos 3 game from everything they learned and improved from bg3 it could be amazing. Divinity has a great world to play in. Ill be excited no matter what, but Divinity continued would be great

I both loved and hated how real the first one was. I would like sliders for certain rl instances. Many times it kept me from playing the game. I would think, alright let's go do another mission, but remember I have to take a bath and had nothing near me, would then keep me from playing it.

@TheArt I enjoyed the wind element. Thought it was quite unique. Not for everyone though.

@TheArt think of the meditation spots as sleep. Resting the mind and soul.

I've enjoyed my ps5. I wanted the faster load times. It has given me much more game time as I have limited time to play. Nothing has wowed me as for games on this console vs last, but many fantastic games have come out and I just get to play them a bit faster.
