@Americansamurai1 that is a really good shout, it could be Darksiders!

I wonder if I'm finally gonna get the third person action RPG set in the Diablo universe that I've been wanting for more than a decade... A game like Nioh, but on Sanctuary would make me incredibly moist.

@themightyant I wonder if they intend for a more Mass-Effectian approach to a trilogy where the differences are minimal and the whole lot flows better.

I am in full catch-up mode with Honkers at the moment.

@johncalmc my guess is she has three tits and the one we can't see is the same size as the smaller one... Think Total Recall, but... better? No, blimpier!

@Jammer They might, it'd be the simplest one to do production-wise. Personally I hope they do their own thing.

@Jammer Each season will be its own story, bit like American Horror Story.

So, it's going to be cross-gen, right?

Good thing that there is no shortage of excellent games to play, both upcoming and clogging the backlog.

I was going to start Phantom Liberty in my CP2077 platinum playthrough on PS5... However Song Bird's call never came and after a little investigating it turned out the code I had received with my Ultimate Edition was for the wrong region. So I've finagled a full refund from Amazon and when the moneys re-renters my account I'm going to buy it again but probably digitally.

In the meantime I am going to play some Honkai, do some catching up and chill. I might also play some Where Winds Meet.

It's a shame this won't be a full priced normal SP game, because it would do serious numbers. Buuuut I'll end up playing it anyways, at least until the initial launch's content runs dry and then I'll evaluate if it gets added to the Betwixt Games roster of F2P games I play between full priced jaunts.

It was a strangely enjoyable game on PC. Who hasn't day dreamed about digging a massive hole in their back garden?

I'm going to give Where Winds Meet a go, I'm always open to some wuxia hijinks. On top of that I'll be continuing my Cyberpunk platinum run.

Depending on the price I can see me getting one to play my Steam library on the big tv downstairs, but it'd be something that works alongside my consoles rather than replace them.

Scratch what I said before, won't be touching this with a 100ft pole.

I don't think we see Horizon 3 until the PS6 launch, I'd like to see it sooner, but my gut says otherwise.

The home grown Horizon Online game, I think we see a trailer at the game awards with a release at the backend of next year.

As for this MMO? I'm willing to give it a fair shake even though I'd prefer PC/console first for its design rather than the ropey mobile method.

It's free-to-play, I have a reasonably beefy PC... I'll give it a fair shake. I would've preferred it on console and definitely not mobile first. I do hope the PC version has decent gamepad controls (it'd be funny if it had full Dualsense compatibility).

I saw elsewhere someone reporting it as if it was from the team behind Guild Wars 2, which it isn't, but it did remind me that there is a new GW2 expansion I need to gaze upon wistfully.

I still haven't picked up Nightreign, it's antithetical to how I play FromSoft games, slow and methodically poking at every corner. Same with Duskbloods, it being a battle royal is really disappointing and if it had been a single player PvE game would be a reason to upgrade to a Switch 2.

Whilst I'm still looking forward to this it is getting a bit daft now.

I'm really looking forward to getting into this once the whole package is out, should be a fun thing to binge over a weekend.

@Ainu20 this is what's currently stopping me from jumping in to what looks like a fun game. I'd love to see an interview putting the question of compensating VAs to both the actors and the developers.

I don't play MP games on PlayStation precisely because I'd have to pay. I usually only buy a month of PS+ at a time and usually so i can play through games added to the catalogue.

I've been replaying Signalis... for the fourth time. It's just a really good romantic tragedy wrapped up in cosmic horror and has become a part of my Halloween tradition.

I will do eventually, I'm in no rush so I'll probably wait until all the dlc is out and then pick it up.

I'm honestly not sure yet. I platinumed Ghost of Yotei the other day and now I'm in that post great game blues. I'll probably end up poking at Honkai and FFXI

It's on the list, back to the backlog now I've Platinumed Yotei... Well back to the spoopy games, some of which I've already played before THEN back to the backlog.

Same as last week - Ghost of Yotei and Final Fantasy XI

I was tempted to download the Arc Raiders server smash, but none of my usual cohort are available and doing any form of PVP solo is my idea of a bad time.

I'm hoping we at least get some really gnarly flashbacks to the Farro Plague.

Filming starting in 2026 and then releasing the following year doesn't seem long enough for what will be an effects heavy film. I'm dubious but I'll hold back judgment until I see it.

I'm fully expecting the PS6 reveal to open or close with BluePoint's Bloodborne, it's safe and it'd work wonderfully to show off all the new graphics tech.

I'd prefer them to do their own new IP or resurrect some much older franchise, but i also wouldn't kick UHD Eileen out of bed either.

I should point out that 'Duellum' is an actual Latin word for war or combat between two contestants (it's where the word duel comes from, duh!), so not dumb, but very pretentious.

I am so far behind with Genshin... and Honkers for that matter, usually I'd play one or the other between big releases but I've been going from one big game to another this last year and hardly any time for either.

Ghost of Yotei, making good progress and having a wonderful time exploring Edo with Atsu and Wolf.

I'm also going to be settling down to listen to the first episode of Critical Roles new campaign whilst I bimble around Final Fantasy XI, merit point farming and doing some gear upgrading.

If the campaign was meatier I'd be tempted, but as it is I wouldn't get my monies' worth

Nintendo are going to have a field day, because that isn't just inspired by it is a carbon copy of AC.

@CielloArc Not really, no. Animal Crossing has always had a very distinct art direction and up until relatively recently nothing else has come close to matching the gameplay systems it uses throughout the franchise.

I buy maybe one full price game every 3-4 months, with cheaper/indie games being a more often once a month thing. But the truth is any major game that slips me by gets added to my Amazon Wishlist for family and friends to poke at around crimbo and that gives me enough 100hr+ games to last for most of the year.

Considering that I only pick up CoDs when cheap/free to blast through the campaigns means that I am super happy with this decision.

@Hurblyburbly I'm still in act 1, I've freed Bellheart and was just going around moping up secrets and stuff and the area where the Beastfly is... I only gave him a couple attempts (usually I have no problem knuckling down and throwing myself at something until I learn it) and my brain just went 'Nope, we're done for now'

I've dropped Silksong for now, frustration finally won out against my adoration. So instead I shall be romping around Ezo doing A Big Revenge in Ghost of Yotei, I'm about 6 hours in and I am already getting distracted by every bit of side content..

@FinneasGH same, a bit more polish could make it really shine.

The film was fantastic... Not amazing enough to ever get me playing Fortnite though.

Sooooo.... more lay-offs coming in the not-so-distant future?

I'm kinda hoping they do a SE/Embracer and either sell off or release studios into the wild to either be independent OR acquired by slightly less scummy big labels.

Silksong... Another week, another will I quit or will I push on through? I'm still in Act 1, I think I can move on to Act 2 but I have areas I still need to poke around in. I adore this game but there is also a little sliver of hate in there.

I'm expecting something a bit like The Green Knight, but Death Stranding-ified.

For all the intentional frustration with that daft Dogcatbird, there is one moment that sticks in my head - Needing Trico to catapult the Boy and having to stand on the end of the see-saw and jump a few times whilst Trico watched then standing on the other end and watching him test the see-saw before slamming down on it catapulting Boy up and through a grate.

That and catching poop green pellets... Trico, not the boy!

Statues a bit expensive though...

@James_42 it'll be on PC... and with how Xbox is these days it'll be on PS5 sooner rather than later.

Silksong... I keep thinking that I've gone as far as I can, but then I breakthrough and there's so much more to poke at... I doubt I'll actually get to the end but I'll keep going until I really can't go any further.

@Drnsnsr Yeah all I really needed to know was that Cregger was behind the new Resi Film to guarantee my butt in the cinema opening week.

Grubb say's it ain't a thing? It'll probably launch on my birthday (6ish weeks from now)!

Being there day one depends on whether I'm still playing Silent Hill F... But if I'm not there day one it'll be soon after

I feel like I'm going mad here because I was sure that was how much storage the PS5 has had since launch??
