A lot is happening today with the community migration today, so I will keep this brief:

I beat Tchia. It’s wonderful, but has it’s flaws, mainly combat. I think it deserved the scores it received, and I can’t say enough how much I loved it. If you even remotely are drawn to it, I would highly recommend giving it a play through.

I am about halfway through Uncharted: Lost Legacy and it is really bringing back those Uncharted 4 vibes I wanted it to. Really loving the relationship between Chloe and Nadine and I also find myself marveling at the graphical details.

What are you playing? Let us know below!

    I’m about 15 hours into octopath traveler 2. its been a long time since i’ve played a JRPG like this one. the story and design are great so far. Getting a little bored with the grindiness of dungeons but that’s the nature of things in this type of game. The amount of choices you can make as any character with their battles at any time is mind boggling, which makes boss fights really strategic but a regular fight against grunts can be tedious.

        I actually do have Fallen Order, still gotta complete that. My gaming sessions come in waves lol. I recently finished the main story of Watch Dogs Legion on PC so I should go and complete Fallen Order’s.

    Final Fantasy 16! Trying to savor it as it feels like an event that only comes once a decade now.

      I’m just loving the epic-ness of the boss fights. Not sure how far through I am, but will be sad when it’s over

        The best part is the almost every boss feels like the last boss of the game and somehow the next boss is always more epic than the one before it. Really a great game. I wish it had a bit more fan service for those who grew up playing NES and SNES fantasy games but it is still an amazing game. Best RPG for me since tails of arise.

    So I have Diablo 4 and FFXVI with about 20 hours each…

    And here I am playing the FFX/X-2 remaster for the nostalgia. I’m probably gonna return to FFXVI sooner but man the mid-game death of my favorite character made me take a pause.

    I’ll try to finish Death Stranding.

    A whole weekend might get me through two, maybe even three cutscenes.

    More Diablo IV, with my wife. We don’t really understand the “hearts” system in the new season—we know how to get and use them, but there doesn’t seem to be any way to upgrade them or get anything other than the same few over and over again. But we’ll figure it out. (It’s my first time playing a Diablo game online, and I am highly resistant to looking this sort of thing up.)

    Hi! I’m currently on my second playthrough of The Last of Us: Part 2. The first time around, the PS5 patch was released a week after I completed the game, so now I’m enjoying the 60FPS upgrade. I have a stack of games to get through and as a parent, my time is limited. I have Death Stranding, Skywalker Saga, Cyberpunk 2077 and probably a few more I’m forgetting. :-)

    I started playing Alan Wake and so far it’s interesting and it looks pretty good. I’ve had my eye on Exoprimal. Might wait for a sale tho $60 seems a little steep for a multiplayer.

    Just downloaded Dysmantle, as I heard good things about it, looking forward to trying it out over the weekend.

      Been playing this as well. Not the most impressive looking game but very fun and a big time sink with its core mechanics

      I wanted to play that one as well, but saw Odyssey on sale so started with that yesterday. Will save Valhalla for later this year.

          Haha, maybe I’m being overambitious! I’ll definitely will pick up Valhalla around the Black Friday sales period and at least start playing it this year 😁

        I started that too…. But then I started with this. I’ll be going back to that though once I’ve finished this.

        I’m enjoying it :-)

        It’s HUGE. I’ve been playing for around 50 hours, and only just found a 3rd map. I’ve not bought any of the expansions yet, this main game is plenty for now. I’ll probably wait for the season pass to be on sale before I get that.

        Games this size are a mixed blessing. You get your monies worth, that’s for sure, but you wonder how long the story line is and if you’ll ever get to see some sort of ending.

        It’s a good game though… well worth it.

          Yeah, I think that’s the main issue I have heard, game is too big. And for someone like me with limited time, I am starting to prefer tigher experiences more.

          I am still going to give it a try someday. Not sure if I will finish the game or not, but at least want to start it.

    Just got a console thru a nice sale recently!! I’m new to PS gaming (haven’t played much gen games too aside from the occasional PC ports), so have been checking out PS Plus games.

    I’m playing FF7R remake these days, and while I really enjoyed the original, this one I have mixed feelings for. It’s got nice elements here and there, but the amount of filler is really getting to me. Plus all the times you have to walk slower.

    Still, I am enjoying myself, just feels less satisfying knowing how the original went. Curious to see how Intergrade will play (might skip if it’s more of the same).

    A bit of Battlefield 1 the best online shooter I’ve had the pleasure to experience and South Park The Fractured But Whole a pretty fun RPG that feels just like you’re playing an episode from the show.

      I played the first South Park, but not the second. I have to check it out. I fell out of watching the show when my daughter was born though

        It’s good, hadn’t watched in a long time either, enjoyed it. I’m not a parent but it’s important to me a game respects my time. This one did

    Just got the console a couple of weeks ago from the wife for my birthday… working through my first game… God of War Ragnarok that was bundled in.

    Enjoying it but definitely don’t have the twitchy button mashing sequences down… Guessing being an old fart doesn’t help…

    Picked up a few other titles to play over time while they were on sale during the prime day sales… Spider-Man and Miles… Cyberpunk… Horizon Zero
