    What Are You Playing?

    2022 is the year where Yakuza franchise (now Like a Dragon) absolutely grabbed me, I 100% agree! Fantastic summary too - I almost feel like it should have its own thread. :guts: I started with 7 since (like Griff) it was free on PSN+ earlier last year and agree it's a great starting point. I...

    Episodes 365 & 366

    Based on these 2 episodes it seems like an impressive start. Given that the artists carrying the torch have thousands of illustrations to draw inspiration from, I hope they continue to push to make it even better.

    Elden Ring (New From Soft Game)

    Fuckin AY, is dead. Not fun AT ALL but satisfying nonetheless. Honestly it wasn’t anything special, seemed like one of those bosses that telegraph in a way that just worked for me. Also I fought him once so my skill was obviously perfect :chomp:

    Elden Ring (New From Soft Game)

    Beat the game at around 140 hours at RL 156. I’m going to go back and take out before I kick off a NG+. Thoughts on the final push: The game is a monumental achievement but also almost completely unsurprising. When DLC happens I’ll be back.

    Elden Ring (New From Soft Game)

    MAJOR Midsommar vibes from that area! I’ve realized that I completely skipped a difficulty level by doing Tearing through all of that now and I can actually complete some more upgrades! If you mean the ruins north of then yeah. I was so overlevelled that it was a one shot deal. I can...

    Elden Ring (New From Soft Game)

    Maybe it’s just me but when I walked into Oh and getting my hands on the is really making me think about a full respec even though I can handle just about any situation from melee or ranged. Just cleared the too. I thought it would be more like one of those mini dungeon “fort” type areas...

    Elden Ring (New From Soft Game)

    I’ve noticed a number of “Hill of Swords” graveyards around that remind me of Berserk. Also while it may just be coincidence there is literally a later on that I found in the Altus area. I’m at 44 hours and L62. Taking my sweet time. The weather is starting to get nice again here in the NW...

    Elden Ring (New From Soft Game)

    Seriously though what is going on with all the crabs everywhere? And jeezus the bears! I am legitimately terrified of them if I’m just trying to ride by. One on one it’s fine but they are TENACIOUS. My wife was watching me play when I found this area and we were both pretty floored. What...

    Elden Ring (New From Soft Game)

    Yeah I don’t think I will be able to back to RDR2 now. I took a few days off and went back into Stormveil toward the lower side and when I finished the full loop back to the start I was pretty floored at how big it is. I found a portal that took me way up to the northwest area and suddenly my...

    Elden Ring (New From Soft Game)

    Stormveil Castle so far is like the best of Bloodborne’s vertical design and Anor Londo mixed into one, with Sekiro stealth options. All I need now is a grappling arm! It’s GLORIOUS. Im playin Astrologer since I normally skip caster classes in these games. I beat Margit without consumables or...

    Elden Ring (New From Soft Game)

    This game is basically FromSoft gumbo. Looks great, plays solid, found a turtle who shit a gold brick. I’m set.

    Elden Ring (New From Soft Game)

    I hope no one is planning to get this for PC until there is confirmation that FROM has fixed their RCE exploit on the network codebase! And as much as I want this day one, I’ve learned my lessons. I just started Red Dead Redemption 2 and I figure by the time I’m done with it, the GOTY or...

    Elden Ring (New From Soft Game)

    https://www.ign.com/articles/elden-ring-miyazaki-hidetaka-full-interview-summer-of-gaming This was a good interview with Miyazaki on how GRRM’s influence was brought in to inspire the world and character design. I see a lot of the FromSoft DNA all around that trailer for sure. I think it...

    Kentarou Miura has passed away

    When I saw the 'SKNet Test' from Skype on my phone buzzing last night I thought someone had hacked the account. But the buzzing went on and so I figured I should answer it. I was playing Days Gone trying to unwind. As soon as I saw Walter's face on camera and the list of people in the group, I...
