Been playing a lot of Cyberpunk 2077. I don't play on a potato so have experienced very few bugs, and nothing game breaking. Only have a RTX 2080 and have to say the game looks pretty amazing at 1440 with ray tracing and balanced DLSS.

I really wanted to get that game, then heard about all the bugs and that the game maker was refunding purchases.....figured I would wait. Glad to see it is working on some platforms.

It works pretty damn well on the platform that matters.

Doesn't mean that their reputation isn't in the mud right now. If you're going to release a game for multiple platforms, you'd better be sure that it runs serviceably on all the platforms you advertise it for.

They messed up and allowed it to be released on multiple platforms when it really should have only been released on PC, and maybe next gen consoles.

But they could turn it all into lemonade like the developers for No Mans Sky. I have incredibly high hopes for its longevity. Like Skyrim level of longevity. It already has an active modding community through nexusmods; although nothing to write home about yet.

I wouldn't say they allowed it. They struck a deal with Microsoft for marketing rights to the game and they probably wanted to get the huge install bases of both PS4 and Xbone. But yes, I'm hopeful they can turn things around.

I'm hoping the news of litigation and devs angry are just media sensationalization because that is going to do nothing but ruin my plans of continuing to play in 5 years.

Dude, what is going on over at the KFC marketing department?! First Mario Lopez as the Col in a novella, and now this? Can't wait to see what's next!

They could start with making decent chicken, but that's this fat nerd's opinion.

Bought a gaming pc for my daughter. Now I'm addicted to Flight Sim.

Door Kickers 2 early access is out and it's good fun. Needs a bit of tweaking though.
Wall breaching with explosives is in this one.

Recently played through Subnautica and Subnautica: Below Zero. Both fantastic survival games set almost completely underwater. The first one is a game I play through once a year or so because its such a great time swimming on an alien planet trying to find a way to escape, all while actively avoiding the larger and honestly terrifying predators. Highly reccomend if you like the survival/exploration themed games.

So, on a whim, I downloaded Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order....the storyline occurs five years after Anakin becomes Darth Vader in Revenge of the Sith.

It's a great freaking game...and have been spending way too much time on it =) Very enjoyable and a lot of Star Wars history and Canon in the storyline, if your a nerd, like me. It came out in November of 2019.

Worth a look...Steam gave it a 9/10.

Recently beat it on Xbox. Fun surprises ahead. Won't spoil it for you.

Did you enjoy it?

 

[BloodStripe]

I did. Got a little repetitive but fun. Some hard bosses that made you use everything you've learned with regards to combat.

I don't play online because I don't like little punks beating my ass...so I'm still playing the Battlefield V campaign over and over because I didn't buy any new games this year.

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.

I feel not enough was warned about Destiny 2 and time consumption in this thread.
