This week I’m continuing through GoW Ragnarok and Baldur’s Gate 3, but I totally forgot that Cocoon was dropping today, so…

Yeah, I’m gonna play that instead. Been looking forward to it for months. I loved Limbo and Inside, so anything even tangentially related to those games is an instant buy in my book.

What are you all up to this weekend?

    Playing lies of P and highly recommend it if you like soulsbourne games. Combat is a mix of bloodborne’s aggression and sekiro’s block mechanics. You really can’t viably play with a dodge focus, at least until after mid game (where I currently am ) but if this description sounds good to you I would pick it up without hesitation.

    BG3. I keep getting sidetracked with different missions in the world and it takes me awhile to get back on track. :|

    I’m currently rotating between mk1, rocket league and fortnite. if I get time, I’ll dive into Diablo 4 or nomanssky but I usually just get quick bite size chunks of gametime.

        well it is a decent fighting game. I was a teen when the original came out, so I’ve played some /most of the series. I liked their rebooted story. it’s not the end all be all but it’s decent.

        i have not done any of the online play so I can’t comment on that.

        i think they went more 2d and added a helper.

        i wish the super moves didn’t have to wait until you were almost dead.

          Hmm… I think the previous MK was same with super moves, right? Haven’t played that in a little while, but I know it’s like that in Tekken 7.

          Have you played their single-player mode, the one that’s supposed to be somewhat like a board game, how is that?

            I missed 11 because I had X/XL so don’t know.

            i have only finished the story mode to get Havik unlocked. I’ve played a few local 1v1s against family but that’s about it. Haven’t seen other parts of it.

              Ah, okay.

              I am not much of a MK player, but have played the story mode of X and 11, as they were available on Extra. From what I recall, in 11 when your HP got really low, it flashed red, and you could use super move with one button.

              I could be wrong though, and mixing it with Tekken 7 which I played recently and has that exact same thing.

      How far along are you? My playthrough is paused right now, but I just cleared the snow area, if that means anything to you.

        I reached Lonalulu and got the orb. The boss was crazy. I don’t want to grind and overlevel my party but if the bosses are like this moving forward, I think I might have to. 4 turns in a row, that’s a bit much.

          Yeah, that was one of the tough one. Took manual control of whole party, with Serena completely on healing duty made me survive that.

          I don’t think I have come across anything close it since then. But I still have lots of game left. I have just collected all the orbs, but haven’t done anything after that.

          I kill every monster in any new area, but ignore most of them in any area I have been through before. Also, craft or get the most powerful equipment for all party members.

            Yeah, I definitely need better gear. I only have two that’s fully decked out and the others just have whatever equipment I found.

            I ended up needing to use one of my pep pops and use the pep power that buffs up the whole party. It made the fight a lot more fair but I can’t always depend on that.

            Fun game tho, I’ll be finishing this one for sure.

    Well, I don’t have my PS5 for few days. So, won’t be playing anything this week, but before that, I have been playing Ghost of Tsushima and Demon’s Souls Remake. I originally played Demon’s Souls on PS3, but never finished it. So, going back to play that and hopefully end it this time.

    The new FIFA EA FC game, some GT7 and maybe continuing my RDR2 play through (for like the 6th time).
