Anyone here play video games?

@EdH I have definitely found myself doing the same. With open world games I have a hard time progressing until I have no possible stones left unturned. The exploration is some of my favorite parts. I did the same with BotW and TotK.

[alexxedge]

@SKT @Seul RDR2 is the all time best. It is the basis to which I measure all gamin experiences. I never got into online, but the hours I have out into multiple play-throughs have been so good.

[SKT]

@alexxedge I’m with you! I never ventured into online either. Might be time for a replay soon!

[GardenState]

@SKT @alexxedge 0/10 don't recommend the online version. I play on PC and I logged in online for the first time. An argument with another player got heated I shot my trusty six shooter. Then all of a sudden a mammoth sized naked woman appeared (probably 16 feet tall) yanked me across the map and then smothered me with her naked body. Despite how it sounds would definitely not recommend. Bad time was had by all.

@GardenState @SKT

lol that’s enough for me to know I need to stay away. I’m probably due another play through.

Yeah I play on PS5 which is apparently the best choice... Mods on PC make it unplayable...

That being said there are still some unsufferable folk in almost every session... Nothing a wee bit of explosive ammo doesn't take care of...

Currently level 140-ish... It's still a very, very beautiful game...

It is currently a Trader month... Trading in pelts and delivering them is 2xXP and $. This fella wondered into my camp... Fry wasn't much help...

[alexxedge]

@Seul that is the thing that always gets me. The level of detail of this game, visually and storytelling, is insane.

[Seul]

I mainly play for the bandanas...

RDR II is so good. But it irks me that Rockstar have still not given us a 60fps patch for the PS5 and the HDR is still really really bad. Not even the PS5 Pro can help matters here.

I'm currently playing Cyberpunk 2077, my most hyped game ever which I didn't play on release (for obvious reasons thanks to the mess the game was in). But the updates have been immense and even though the game is not a sandbox/open world in the same vein as GTA, it's still fantastic.

Also on rotation:

Astro Bot
Black Myth Wukong
Sekiro (need to finish this)

Whilst I'm sharing, I'm obsessed with From Soft. Bloodborne IS the the GOAT. Love Dark Souls series and got the platinum in Elden Ring.

I am nerd, yes, yes I am.

@Nick I played Cyberpunk on PC at release, and it was ok on this platform.

I'm really tempted to reinstall it and play a new run, this game was insanely good.

Next to this, i'm currently playing Warhammer 40K SM2 & Star Citizen.

SC is also insane (if you dont care about bugs atm). Immersive af, it is gonna be the best game ever when release.

[Nick]

I need to grab the DLC for Cyberpunk which is extremely good (and adds something extra you can take back into the man game progression wise - as well as other weapons etc).

Never played the Warhammer games.

Star Citizen is maddening. Unreal ambition but will the game ever be released/complete? Isn't it still in early access/beta?

Yes it is in alpha. But they just confirmed the new roadmap :

• Solo story mode will be available in 2025. I invite you to watch the latest Squadron 42 gameplay video on youtube, it pretty much insane.
• The 1.0 version will be released in 2026.

It is clearly the most ambitious game ever, and they are in the good way to achieve it. They developped a technology called "server meshing" for example, huge technologic step and some other new stuff is coming soon.

I highly recommend to check this game to anyone who's into SF and space games.

@Neru-6 As someone who has spent more on SC ships than i care to admit to, i am excited that there does seem to be light at the end of the tunnel for a fully playable game

[Neru-6]

@Ross I'm exactly in the same position, Concierge if you know what I mean

And yes, I'm pretty excited too by all the recent news presented at the Citizen Con ! Hope everything will be delivered on time.

Because Rockstar has given up on RDR2. No more updates for neither story or online mode.

That being said: happy thanksgiving yanks!

STOP WHAT YOU'RE DOING

Apparently Bloodborne is officially undergoing maintenance on December 3rd - the same date as a rumoured PlayStation event.

The plot thickens...

The 3rd December is PlayStation's 30th Anniversary.

...

OMG 60fps FINALLY / REMASTERED PATCH UPDATE !!!1111

I'm going to have to take six months annual leave. Hopefully it gets approved.

EDIT: I've been told this is only a rumour and I'm absolutely livid.

[Nick]

Decided to grab Path of Exile 2.

Wish me luck. Or rather 'kiss goodbye to my weekends'.

[E. Malus]

@Nick I played all weekend, it's basically crack.

[Seul]

It sure is getting christmas-y...
