@thepaulcutts I second that! I just bought 0 and Kiwami during the sale. Still have never played a Yakuza game, but I'm looking to play through all of them if the price is right.
I loved this game! Before VII Remake I had never played a FF before. I'm thankful that I was introduced to the series and am currently playing through XV. Part 2 can't come soon enough!
I spent a lot of time playing GoT when it released, but lost interest about halfway through. Maybe I should return to the island and finish out the campaign.
I will say that the combat doesn't feel as satisfying after playing Demon's Souls. 🙃
I'm playing on PS5 and have a lot of mixed feelings about the current state of the game.
The world building is awesome, the dialog is great, and I really enjoy the RPG mechanics and cyberware modifications.
However, my biggest issue is the NPC AI. So far I've encountered the following:
Enemys talking after they were killed Civilians cowering endlessly during a fight Randomly triggered attacks The police force system Some enemies won't engage in combat
If you're loving the game, keep on chugging. There is a lot to enjoy.
After my 25 hours in Night City, though, I think I may have to depart and return when its in a better state.
I've started this game two different times and am yet to finish it despite really enjoying it. With the PS5 release coming, I'll have to dive in once again.
I've played for around 5 hours on the PS5. So far I have had 2 crashes and bugs where I'll kill an enemy and they will continue to scream they are hit and whatnot. Besides these instances, I'm thoroughly enjoying the game.
That is a bummer about the PS4/Pro performance, though. I hope they are able to fix the problems, but I'm not sure if that is even possible with the current hardware.
Before this year had begun, I had actually fallen out of gaming and my PS4 was primarily used for Netflix and the like. I owned and had beaten every game I wanted at the time and didn't have a backlog.
However, with the increased time at home I slowly began playing various titles over and am glad I was reintroduced to a hobby I've had since the NES days.
After Black Friday sales, I've now got Death Stranding, Ni No Kuni 1 & 2, Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, and Ghost of Tsushima tucked away.
With Cyberpunk releasing next week, the only games I'll be purchasing in the future are Horizon Forbidden West, God of War: Ragnarok, and Mortal Shell once it takes a price drop.
@TaterSlap69 I just started my play through and am really enjoying it. I can't explain it except to say I feel calmly anxious exploring the world and encountering enemies.
Also, P5 was a great game for me. I didn't play the Royal edition, but I read it eliminated the few issues I had with the original release. Have fun being a Phantom Thief!
I purchased Death Stranding for $20 and Uncharted: The Lost Legacy for $10 at Gamestop. I've seen some gameplay of the former and am curious to experience this for myself.
My wife and I are working our way through a Harry Potter cookbook at the moment. This website will be a great help for meal planning in the future. Cinnasnails sound delicious!
I was going to hold off on playing a substantial PS5 game because CP was so close to launch. Now, it's back to the drawing board to figure out what next gen game to purchase.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 354
@Link41x Freezeezy Peak has the best/most annoying music in BK depending on how much time you've played the level. 😄
Great idea, though! I may have to go pack some twinklies myself!

Re: Feature: Our PS5 Predictions for The Game Awards 2020
Though not a PS5 title, my unrealistic hope is a legitimate Banjo-Threeie! I truly don't think we will ever see it though. 😔
Re: Upcoming PS5 and PS4 Games for December 2020 and January 2021
Cyberpunk 2077!
Re: Cyberpunk 2077 Pre-Launch Console Patch Is Massive, But It's 'Not the Update' You Think It Is

Re: Talking Point: What Free December 2020 PS Plus Games Do You Want?
Uncharted: Lost Legacy would be great! It's the only Uncharted title I haven't played, excluding the handheld adventure.
Re: New Cyberpunk 2077 Gameplay Trailer Is One of Its Best
I'm very excited for this to finally release! I truly hope we don't have any more delays.

This will be the first generation I've purchased a console on launch day. Cannot wait!
Re: Days Gone Gets Huge 25GB Update Ahead of PS5
@Sladey69 I misspoke. I meant to say included with PS+ Collection.
Re: Days Gone Gets Huge 25GB Update Ahead of PS5
I was never interested in this game on release, but I will probably give this a try since it's free on PS5.
Edit: Instead of free, I should have said included with the PS+ Collection.
Re: Bugsnax Trailer Sets the Scene Ahead of PS5, PS4 Launch
After the disappointing CP news yesterday, this definitely lifted my spirits!
