@Ilyn yeah I'm trying to resist the lure of Classic WoW but I know I'll cave at some point.
But the general consensus is is the TWW expansion is more solo friendly with bots for groups, solo delves etc, but I'm not that far in as yet. I played for 10 yrs from launch day back in '04, believe me that was much more hardcore. Nowadays I think it's as life sapping and hardcore as you want it to be
Enjoy !

Got back from travelling in Europe just last weekend so itching to get back into gaming !
Finished Ratchet and Clank PS4 fun but forgettable and dropped Immortals Of Aveum after 7 hrs. The epitomy of meh.
Started Black Ops 6 on GP last night, superb so far. Great campaign and the usual peerless multilayer. Enjoying Star Wars Outlaws too, about 9 hrs in so far, though it has many flaws. Also been playing the fantastic Space Marine 2 ...multiplayer and only 2 levels of the campaign
But I stupidly bought World of Warcraft The War Within expansion and I can see it taking over my life ! Nnoooo I thought I was out ....
Also added Silent Hill 2, Dead Rising Remaster, Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred expansion to the backlog !
What a great time to be a gamer eh ?
Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️

Re: Poll: One Year Later, How Would You Rate Marvel's Spider-Man 2 on PS5?

I thought it was a HHUUGGE disappointment. Terrible writing and characters - why is everybody so nice all the time ? The dialogue is pure pre teen cringe. Peters voice when he wears the dark suit is beyond cringe. Peters Parker is such a limp, wet lettuce of a character, not to mention the even more cringey "Danicasts".
The side quests are ridiculous- no I don't want to walk 5 miles following your grandads inhaler scent, thank you. The quest that has you playing the deaf girl tagging graffiti is ridiculous- just let us be Spiderman !! And I don't want to solve a random crime 2 minutes after doing the last one.
And since when was playing a Spidey character akin to almost being an ultra powerful Jedi Knight ?
Players hated the Mary Jane stealth sections in the first game so instead of taking that feedback on board they introduce more .."but hey, this time let's give her a weapon ! Awesome! "
So yeah I didn't like it much ...5/10

A weekend of RPG greatness for me with the life sapping Diablo 4 my GOTY so far in Dragons Dogma 2 and I'm about 6 hrs in on the stunning Granblu Fantasy Relink which has blown me away with its gameplay and stunning art style. Get all over this if you haven't played it guys !
Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️

Just finished Steel Rising...an enjoyable souls like but way too easy and lightweight with a good story
Gonna do another run through of Hellblade 2 which is fantastic though I fully understand it's criticisms but overall it's a stunner but not quite as good as the first game.
More GT7 which just gets better and better
Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️

Started, and I'm gonna stick with Steel Rising on PS5. Very ho hum at the mo, but a more accessible Souls like. The main issue is fighting the same enemies all the time
More Diablo 4 my main drug of choice (well the only one 🤣) think I'll be playing this for years to come !
More Forza Motorsport on XBX ....
Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️

More of the amazing Stellar Blade ...near to the end now I think so looking forward to NG+
Destiny 2 The Final Shape ..wow. Huge improvement on Lightfall, love the new Transcendance feature. A great mechanic and very strategic. Usual brilliant gunplay.
Also more Diablo 4....the Season Of Loot is a huge game changer. Brilliant.
Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️
