My addiction for Diablo 2 kicked in ... again! This game is a masterpiece! I just beat Hell difficulty with my paladin and now I am on my sorceress on the 3rd act in Hell.
On the side (IF Diablo 2 let me!) I will play Ghost of Tsushima and S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl. I have never played Stalker before, only watched it. I hope for some Fallout-ish experience
@RaZieLDaNtE I have absolutely no connections to the staff
The only exceptions are the articles about my gaming related sculptures. But that is because I sent them those over the contact form
I just know the exact hour they post those. If they make it random, I will never be the first one
As for Legacy of Kain, I only watched and read about the story, I never "played" it myself, so this is exciting.
I never got into Metal Gear Solid and Mass Effect. I prefer fantasy games with some exceptions ofc
@Muscleblackcop nope. But it will be annoying if she does not overcome the fear in the first 3rd of the game. I want to play as a badass RE character instead of scared little girl
While I do not agree with the Leon not being the protagonist because he is not easily scared, I will play and enjoy the game.
I mean the horror is for us not for the main character that is supposed to go through the end. It actually might be a little annoying seeing Grace constantly being afraid. I hope she man's up by the middle of the game
This weekend I will play and finish Chronicles of the Wolf! I got both the Switch 1 and the PS5 copies just to support the indie Castlevania fan Migami (Mig Perez).
On the site I have the great Castlevania Chronicles which in Arranged mode on easier difficulty is playable otherwise it is one of the hardest Castlevania games out there!
And in Resident Evil 4 Remake I am about to exit the Village area.
1. They tricked the audience with the trailer. Actually, they straight up lied! 2. The used pure shock value for the fun of it. 3. The whole premise of "Revenge BAD!" is stupid and childish.
The ONLY thing I liked in the game was the environments. They are beautiful!
This weekend I am treating myself with Castlevania Symphony of the Night on its original hardware! (FINALLY!) That's right! "What is a man? A miserable little pile of secrets!" and all that!
On the side I will be blasting in Serious Sam: The First Encounter and some Diablo-like gaming in Heroes of Ruin!
And on top of that it is not the whole game on the disc. They do the "Early access" crap, so they want only the people who paid for the access to play it.
This weekend I will have some tries at Castlevania Dracula X Chronicles and Castlevania Legacy of Darkness! This year I have beat many Castlevania games for the first time so training to be better in more is my goal
This weekend will be as casual as possible and the games I chose are Batman Arkham Origins, Wolfenstein The Old Blood, DooM 64 and Super Castlevania IV!
I finished it at the start of this year. A little late to the party and I haven't played 1 or 2. It is a good game. Little clunky controls but the atmosphere and the stories are amazing!
This weekend I will play on a small nostalgia note called World of Warcraft. I will level just a little in Season of Discovery after not playing for over a year!
If you PAY for a physical edition, it should contain a playable build of the game on the physical media. If NOT put a giant label ON the box like the Switch 2 key-carts so people would know and place a disclaimer when pre-ordering online. They OWE US this much.
@GirlVersusGame A DooM trilogy switch cartridge cut in half I had to destroy it to get a replacement from LRG I did not want to throw it away, so I made a sculpture to display it
This weekend I will start a new playthrough of DooM Eternal on the Switch. Also, such a shame that the disc of DooM The Dark Ages does not contain the game, and you need internet to install it and play it. Despicable
I will continue my save in Singularity on the 360 and play some GTA V as I have never touched the story like at all This will be interesting.
@Oprahs_cellulite Because the publisher decided to put a few MB on the disc and it is worthless. If I was digital only gamer, I would've bought it, but I am not.
All of my games are physical releases that actually have a playable build on the media.
This is the first time they do this to a DooM game btw!
I will NOT support that now. Down the road if LRG do a copy of this DooM like they did with the others I will buy it. This is my first skip on a DooM game ...
@Northern_munkey Apparently you own 1 or 2 games on disc?
ALL of my PS5 and PS4 games can be played JUST from the installation from the disc without ANY internet connection.
However, I am still angry that Ubisoft tried to kill the franchise. Besides Heroes V, 6 and 7 are so generic that it hurts me. They are still fun but unlike the old titles I can't play them for long periods of time.
And I finally found a colleague that likes HoMM 3 to give away my sculpture to free some space to make more

Re: 'There's No Real Need for a PS6': Industry Veteran Weighs in on Next-Gen Debate
Ofc we or the industry does not need a PS6 but they will make one anyway just to have something "new" to sell.
Like those anti-aging face creams that every "new" one is "revolutionary".
Same goes for the Playstation ...
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 595
@KingPev Half of it on the Steam Deck. Then it bugged and I left it there. I might start it again
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 595
This weekend I will have new tries at games I could not beat or get far into
First stop is Lords of the Fallen. I could not continue playing this after I reached the hub area (beating the angel lady boss). I do not know why.
Creaks is really cute indie quest/adventure game.
Resident Evil 3 Nemesis is harder for me than the rest of the RE games. Maybe it is the tank controls. I wish it had the analog controls
Half-Life for the PS2. I really wish to beat yet another version of the Half-Life franchise
Happy gaming everyone!!!
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 594
This weekend I will start a new Barbarian in Diablo 3! The Diablo games are so addicting Except Diablo 4 it can go Blizzard itself
And for side activities I will play Marvel's Spider-Man (the handsome Parker edition, not the new one) and some retro Ninja Gaiden 1!
Happy gaming everyone!!!
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 593
After being absorbed by Diablo 2 I am going to keep it simple this weekend Btw I got Enigma and beat the Ubers!
First trying out Broken Sword Shadow of the Templars. I LOVE point and click adventures so I am sure I will like this one
I am going to get some nostalgia with TMNT and some 1v1 matches in StarCraft 64!
Happy gaming everyone!!!
Re: So, PS3 Game Sacred 2 Is Getting Remastered for PS5
I have played this game so much! It is fantastic and there are so many build variations!
Also, it is open-world ARPG!
The only downside for me is that the humor is weak
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 592
I am still in the Diablo 2 grasp, and I do not see that going away in the near future I am farming like crazy for that Enigma runeword!
However, to break the farming madness I will play short bursts of Mortal Kombat 1 and Mutation Nation (amazing nostalgia coming from this one!)
Happy gaming everyone!!!

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 590
This weekend I will play Soul Reaver 1. I have never played it back in the day so this will be a new experience for me.
I will start a second run of Chronicles of the Wolf on PS5 this time. The replay value is poor BUT the environments are awesome!
And for nostalgia I will see where I was in Link Between Worlds
Also, I want to play some Super Castlevania IV in retro style with the old controller and no save states
Happy gaming everyone!!!
Re: Bethesda to Put Oblivion Remastered on a PS5 Disc in New Physical Edition
There is ZERO reason to make this and NOT put the whole game on 2 discs (I assume that it will be on 2 discs because of the size).
I mean why make a physical version of a game that WAS already released in digital form for some time and not put it all on the physical media ...
If it requires a download Bethesda and MS will become even a bigger meme.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 588
@Czar_Khastik Preparing for a Greek cruise so no time for gaming in the next 10 days
Play some Castlevania or Elden Ring for me, please
Re: Random: Stellar Blade Dev Gives Insane Anatomically Accurate Explanation of Why Butts Are Beautiful
@TheArt Unfortunately, some people believe that they have moral superiority over others, because of their beliefs.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 587
This weekend I will play Sanitarium on the Steam Deck and record the journey in screenshots.
On the PS5 I will play some Baldur's Gate 3 (it pains me that I have Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 but never played them seriously).
On the Switch I will start a fresh character in Titan Quest
And I will draw some assets for my game because I am way behind anything there
Happy gaming everyone!!!

Re: Poll: How Do You Feel About The Last of Us Part 2, 5 Years Later?
It was (and still is) a very disappointing game.
1. They tricked the audience with the trailer. Actually, they straight up lied!
2. The used pure shock value for the fun of it.
3. The whole premise of "Revenge BAD!" is stupid and childish.
The ONLY thing I liked in the game was the environments. They are beautiful!
I could not care less for ANY of the characters.

Re: Xbox's Next Round of PS5 Games Are Available to Pre-Order Physically
If a game does not have a playable build on the disc/cartridge it is not a physical edition it is a plastic DRM key.
Re: The Outer Worlds 2 Is an $80 Game on PS5, as Xbox Continues to Push Game Pass
And on top of that it is not the whole game on the disc. They do the "Early access" crap, so they want only the people who paid for the access to play it.
I hope they lose money.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give DOOM: The Dark Ages?
Can't vote because I did not get it. If someday they release a normal physical copy of the game, I will play it.
Re: Poll: 10 Years Later, What Are Your Thoughts on The Witcher 3?
I finished it at the start of this year. A little late to the party and I haven't played 1 or 2. It is a good game.
Little clunky controls but the atmosphere and the stories are amazing!
Re: Fans Discuss the Reason Behind DOOM: The Dark Ages' Lukewarm Opening
@Bionic-Spencer I am almost certain that those idiots did it because of the exclusive pre-order for early access.
The same thing Ubisoft did with their latest releases and that is why they can't be played from the discs either.
If physical editions leak earlier those who bought the early access will cry that it is unfair as they paid for that privilege
And that is why the game is NOT on the disc so they can control WHEN you can install it and play it.
And that is why they do not deserve my money for that release.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 581
@GirlVersusGame that is a Paladin from WoW with Tier 2 Raid armor set called Judgement armor.
It is a mashup between the original 2005 version and the latest "remastered" version of the set.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 581
@KingPev It is ok for a modern WoW expansion. But the game is so fast now and so ... spammy that every class feels identical.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 581

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 580
@Perturbator yes! It is like a hidden gem! Also the story is amazing!
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 580
@PlatinumMikey enjoy the game! I hope to play those games in the future!
And as a bonus they have the game on the physical media 100%
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 580

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 579
@GirlVersusGame Those are some of my favorite units in Heroes of Might and Magic 3. That is why I decided to make them.
A Vampire Lord

And a Cyclops King

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 579
More Elden Ring for me. It is harder to play a Faith character than a Quality one, at least for me!
I cleared Limgrave and the Weeping Peninsula. Now I am in Liurnia of the Lakes and hunting for dungeons
On the side I have Heroes of Might and Magic 3 Horn of the Abyss on the Steam Deck and Octopath Traveler on the Switch
Happy gaming everyone!!!
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 578
@rusty82 thank you!
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 578
This weekend I will play some Blasphemous 2 on the Switch.
I also started a new character in Elden Ring. This time I will try to play with a Faith build
And lastly, for some nostalgia, Shadowgate Classic on the Gameboy Color
Happy gaming everyone!!!
Re: Oblivion Remastered Out Today on PS5, Price Revealed
I hope that there is a physical edition down the line. But if it is to happen it will be LRG given their relationship with Bethesda.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 577
@Czar_Khastik that guy is out of town for Easter so no gaming for him
I post first because I know the time. That is all if they change it I will not be the first.
