Gaming thread

I like Monster hunter Stories and Stories 2. Stories 2 is the better game. I also like the Yakuza Like a dragon Game and Yakuza infinite wealth. PS4 & 5. Dragon Quest Echoes of an elusive age is also fun.

I have 1000s of hours in these games.
 
Re: Red Dead 2

Understand the slower pace may not be for everyone, but I’m on my 4th replay. First time to ‘really’ take it slow. Still in Chapter 3 and I’ve earned the bottomless satchel, have an assortment of all the cool outfits I want for snow, swamp, camp and town. All of the available legendary animals have long been slayed, and I’m now working my way through the fish. I’ve captured the dream catchers and created countless recipes over a fire.

I don’t think there are very many ‘points of interest’ left to find and after locating all of the cliff-carvings, got a kick out of that interactive payoff! At the cost of 1 rabbit, I got a nifty jacket from Pearson, found a pipe for Dutch, and gave Tilly Sadie’s necklace (which still bugs me a bit), and found a thimble for Jack. The is the first time I’ve paid attention to conversations at camp and truly interacted with them…to the point of finding the Micha glitch and riffing insults at him for about a minute before it finally timed out. I’ve paid attention to Jack’s dog a bit and last night accidentally walked into the ‘moonshine’ mission and poured free drinks for ungrateful townsfolk.

At some point I’m going to work through the treasure maps I’ve accumulated and then go ‘bone hunting’ as far as I can before having to pass the rest off to John. This afternoon I’m going to go steal some horses and burn a field, but I’m being careful not to get too far into ‘3’ as this is my favorite campsite and I want to stay here for quite a while longer before moving on.

Clemens Cove is the last camp where the gang still has some collective hope for the future, still actively cares about each other. Man I love this game.
 
It's certainly much slower than D4, but it's kind of refreshing. You can't just blow everything up and move down to the next map. It's MUCH more difficult and the depth of the mechanics blows Diablo out of the water. Some say it's not for casuals because of the time needed to invest into it. Is it worth the $30? Considering how much you paid for D4...Yes. Nobody knows when the full game is dropping, which could be 4, 6, or 12 months from now. You end up playing Act 1-3 twice and then you move into end game.

I started with a witch and the gameplay was bad. I then created a sorceress and it is like a completely different game.
 
Jesus Christ. How are you leveling so fast? I have about 6 hours on my sorc and am only an 11 or something.
Play a Necro it's D4 easy mode. Lots of videos on speed leveling as well.

I haven't come back to D4 yet but I want to get me one of the mercs and try em out.
 
PoE 2, bitches.
Downloaded it last night the game's still in BETA.

Diablo 4 but worse and I don't really like D4 that much.

I'll play it a little more to see if it grows on me but at the moment it is just another dungeon crawler.

Since when does it require MANA to fire a crossbow? Yeah, same thing in D4 but come on man.

As they say… IYKYK


 
201-22 hours in PoE2 now. Took my sorc to the beginning of Act II and decided to replay Act I with a new character, a merc. The play styles are so very different between the characters and people talk about a witch being OP, but the mercenary makes her look weak. D4 has that variety, but PoE2 has more depth. his will be a really good game once it breaks out of early access. Hopefully they fix a lot of bugs and optimize the gameplay to prevent lag, hangups, crashes, etc.
