This weekend I will at least do my best to acquire the two elemental attacks in Crimson Desert. Keeping your focus on one thing is really hard lol. So much to see and do at all times.

Bought Avowed in the current Sale and downloaded it to see if I enjoy it.

And maybe continue my slow journey through the amazing Trails of Cold Steel II.

Hope you all have a great weekend!

Re: Site News: Where's Our Crimson Desert PS5 Review?

Nilexson

I'm not paying much mind to outliers when it comes to review scores.

3/10 vs 10/10 is either saying: " I wanted to them to be genre defining!!!!1!! Its, not like I had unrealistic expectations!!!!!!1!!!1!" or "I had to rush, want to stay on good terms with developers so they grace me with more future review copies!"

I have other review outlets who gave their fair and honest reviews. Explaining the Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
Their reviews usually resonate with what I'm into and like to do/experience in a game. And even then I stay skeptical and just use my own brain to decide whether or not I want to throw money at a game.

Hearing different reviewers say that there were some who almost rage quit because of the difficulty or because they didn't get to crack a puzzle says a lot to me. So yeah...

I just read/watch the reviews from 'personally liked sources' and decide myself. Which I have. And I'll be roaming Pywell tomorrow morning.

Yesterday I finished Trails of Cold Steel.
Sadly I was spoiled on one of the reveals in the last chapter, but still the end was really good. And man what a cliffhanger....

So I booted up Trails of Cold Steel II. And the story picks up immediately after the end of the previous title... and I'm really interested in seeing how this next game unfolds. 😌

Have a great weekend everyone!

Re: 'Whatever We Say, People Won't Believe Us': Crimson Desert Dev Promises Full PS5 Tech Breakdown for Launch

Nilexson

What surprises me at this momemt is that a company that is convinced their game runs good on all platforms, continues to -not- show any videos, apart from the PC version.

Most Ps5 owners don't have a Ps5 Pro at home. So seeing content recorderd on a PS5 Pro is nice, but not what the concerns are about. The big question remains unanswered, being; Will this game run good on base Ps5?

Making my way to the final field studies in Trails of Cold Steel. Must admit that I haven't had as much issues with connecting with the main cast like a lot of people seem to have.

Can't wait to see where this journey leads, because the story has just really kicked into gear!

Have a great weekend everyone.

Seeing Class VII's story slowly but steadily through as the days turn to weeks, and the weeks turn to months in Legend of heroes: Trails of Cold Steel (first one).

Already had a very intriguing tidbit of a foreshadowing... man the writers deserve a lot of acknowledgement for how they seem to have planned this all out!

Have a great weekend!

Wrapping up some Special Support Section requests through Crossbell in the amazing Trails to Azure! This game is peak after everything that was build up in Trails from Zero.

The way it also actually set up certain plot points for the upcoming series is nice. Man I can't wait to see the credits roll and make my way to the next arc.

Have a great weekend all!

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 619

Finally met the beautiful, yet rookie-ish cast of Trails from Zero. At the end of chapter 1, but man the few call backs to previous games is fun.

Besides solving crime around Crossbell I will be bringing passengers from country to country in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. Still can't believe I'm simming on my PS5🥲. Great times to be a gamer.

Have a great (gaming) weekend everyone!

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 618

Flying all over Europe and the Middle east to increase the range of my Flight company in Flight Simulator 2024. Can't get enough of it...

And I'm watching playthroughs of Trails in the Sky SC. Yes, I know...
But I LOVE the story/world building. But the 2D and slow gameplay is just too rough to get through... . I hope the Crossbell arc is easier to get through on the PS5... Because I miss playing through the series myself... but man... the story is good!

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 617

Slowly grinding my way through career mode in MSFS24. Halfway to the first Boeing 737, hopefully the last few legs will provide me with some fine scenery and great flight hours.

But.... (This will be the main course of this weekend!)
I'm in the final chapter of Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter Remake...
And it is a Rollercoaster! Didn't expect the game to catch me in its claws the way it has. The world building, character building, and overall story are... great!

Since I am aware that the game is about to come to a sudden stop, I decided to download Trails in the sky SC already... man... this series is fun!

Hope you all enjoy your weekend!

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 615

Will be trying to grind my final legs to be able to finally upgrade my fleet with Boeing 737 Max and Airbus 320 Neo in Flight Simulator 2024!

And on the side diving deeper into the Trails in the Sky Chapter One.
I feel a bit guilty for never jumping in sooner. The game is so much fun and the character/world building is amazing.
Just finished the prologue (9 hours...!!)
It's like a cosy and relaxing RPG so far. Can't wait to see how this story unfold😃

Have a great weekend everyone!

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 602

I'll be flying passengers all over Europe in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 Beta on my base PS5!

Sure there are some stutters and lower res textures when flying at a higher altitude, but it is a dream coming through playing MSFS2024 on a Playstation!

Good times to be alive!

And of course some Borderlands 4 on the side!
Harlowe says boom!

Re: Monster Hunter Wilds Sells 8 Million Units in Three Days, Capcom's Fastest Selling Game Ever

Nilexson

Wilds deserves this success as it is a true successor to World.

The pc performance is really bad from what I have seen on other media, but the Ps5/Pro experience is okay (except for the graphics tbh).

The game isn't much easier than previous titles. Especially once you get to High rank the difficulty becomes what many expect from monster hunter.

Most veterans are accustomed to the G-rank experience from World and Rise. And starting in Low Rank in a new game makes it look easier, because we experienced way harder content.

The true challenge always comes from G-rank and particular event quests that will be added along the way (game is just a few days old).

Re: Path of Titans Could Be Your Dream Dinosaur Game on PS5, PS4

Nilexson

@Elodin

I've been playing this game on mobile for quite a while and can answer your questions.

Yes you get to choose your dinosaurs.
How long they live is up to you. You need to grow them from hatchling to full adult. And once you reach adult it's up to you. When you die of hunger or by another player you loose some of your growth though...

There are three types of semi-aquatics. Spino, Sarco and Sucho.

Hope this helps ^^

I took a little brake from FFXIV to play some Scarlet Nexus. Almost done with the Kasane run. Will finish that up this weekend and will eventually start Yuito's at another time.

However I feel like I betrayed my main on FFXIV so will continue my playthrough through Stormblood. I think I'm over half way through and the story finally starts to pick up.

Have a good weekend everyone!

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 383

Nilexson

Continuing my bonding journey through Scarlet Nexus! The combat is really great and the story is good enough to see through to the end. I think I'm almost done with the first playthrough. Wondering if I enjoy the second just as much.

And of course some FFXIV to the side. Really taking my time through Stormblood.

Good weekend all!

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 382

Went on a vacation this week. So I only have sunday to play something.

Eventhough I love me some FFXIV, I will dip my toes in Scarlet Nexus tomorrow! This morning I had a few minutes to sit through the opening and do a bit of the tutorial... can't wait to play the game tomorrow!

Have a good weekend everyone!

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 381

Nilexson

@TraCuz- I'll take your word for it. That is why I decided to throttle back a little, and take it a bit slower. Smell the roses from time to time and just do other things to the side like leveling another class and just continue when I feel like it. I'm sure it will get better and I love character progression, it is just a bit slower than Heavensward and that's alright.
Thanks!
