          Ooh a video game thread! Lol. Top game right now: Ghost of Tsushima! Only game I ever played 100% as it progressed- didn’t wanna miss a thing. Love the samurai/ninja vibe and gameplay, incredible story and visuals. Highly recommend.

              @WhiskeySandwich Ghost of Tsushima is a great game. I want to give it a replay on PS5 at some point, with the expansion.

              Currently making my way through Horizon: Forbidden West myself. Damn it’s a worthy upgrade to the first game in every single respect.

              Take the dive...

                I wish I had more time to get really good but I’m huge fan of Hunt Showdown. The weapons are meticulously designed and rooted in the last century. Most of them are slow sooting so the engagements last longer compared to games with full auto weapons. Graphic and general vibe of southern US is just awesome. Game mechanics are challenging but don’t lead to despair as in Escape From Tarkov.

                  Speaking of games I feel compelled to 100%, I'm playing Hollow Knight right now and wanna take in absolutely everything it has to offer. Combat is flawless, and so joyful when you hit flow state in some of the tougher endgame boss fights.

                      @SKT I'm currently exploring classics of this last five or so years, can fully understand why Hollow Knight is so highly regarded. Beautiful animation, sound design and lore, with such a pure combat and movement system. Bosses are so well designed that you never feel cheated, and button bashing will never yield success.

                      “𝑁𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑟 𝑙𝑒𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑓𝑢𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑒 𝑑𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑏 𝑦𝑜𝑢. 𝑌𝑜𝑢 𝑤𝑖𝑙𝑙 𝑚𝑒𝑒𝑡 𝑖𝑡, 𝑖𝑓 𝑦𝑜𝑢 ℎ𝑎𝑣𝑒 𝑡𝑜, 𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑠𝑎𝑚𝑒 𝑤𝑒𝑎𝑝𝑜𝑛𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑠𝑜𝑛 𝑤ℎ𝑖𝑐ℎ 𝑡𝑜𝑑𝑎𝑦 𝑎𝑟𝑚 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑎𝑔𝑎𝑖𝑛𝑠𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑝𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑒𝑛𝑡.”

                        @T4920 I haven’t gotten to play much lately and I’ve transitioned to searching for games that the kids can play (9 & 12). We’ve had fun playing Unravel two recently. I think it’s a beautiful game and requires teamwork.

                          @EdH I just purchased Pyre on your recommendation, really sold it to me alongside some spoiler free reviews I read.

                          Booting it up now, will let you know my thoughts after a few hours 🤙

                            @T4920 I think you'll like it. A few hours might not be enough time - if memory serves it's a slow starter, but once you get into the swing of things and get to the point where you start having to make hard choices, it becomes much more interesting.

                              @EdH I only managed to get an hour in but I love it so far, and can envision how things might develop going forward.. such an original concept for a game, gives me the vibe of one of those 'chose your own adventure' books that were popular when I was a child.

                              “𝑁𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑟 𝑙𝑒𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑓𝑢𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑒 𝑑𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑏 𝑦𝑜𝑢. 𝑌𝑜𝑢 𝑤𝑖𝑙𝑙 𝑚𝑒𝑒𝑡 𝑖𝑡, 𝑖𝑓 𝑦𝑜𝑢 ℎ𝑎𝑣𝑒 𝑡𝑜, 𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑠𝑎𝑚𝑒 𝑤𝑒𝑎𝑝𝑜𝑛𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑠𝑜𝑛 𝑤ℎ𝑖𝑐ℎ 𝑡𝑜𝑑𝑎𝑦 𝑎𝑟𝑚 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑎𝑔𝑎𝑖𝑛𝑠𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑝𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑒𝑛𝑡.”

                                @EdH Just finished the game, couldn't pull myself away from it despite being ill these last few days and feeling very tired/lethargic.

                                You were right about the soundtrack, genuinely moved me at times, especially when the minstrels play during the liberation rites...

                                Succeeded in 4/7 liberations, and loved the final twist the game served up!

                                Really appreciated the post game epilogues too, amazing how invested I was in the fates of even the most minor side characters.

                                    @T4920 That was quick!

                                    I really rate Super Giant games. All their soundtracks are great and the studio does new things all the time. If you haven't played Hades yet that's another strong recommend from me. Be warned though, it's a hell of a long game if you want to reach the true ending and max everything out. Even if you don't want to go that far though, just seeing how many different builds you can make for your runs through the game is great fun - the powers combine in really interesting ways.

                                    Take the dive...

                                      Baldur's Gate 3 is awesome. I've never known an RPG to go out of its way so much to account for all possible decisions a player might make, and craft outcomes for those decisions. I have played for 72 hours according to my PS5 and I haven't even gotten out of Act 1 (of 3) yet. If you like role-playing games you can't miss it.

                                        @EdH been doing a solo play through. Probably the best story based and turn based game I’ve played to date. I’m a destiny 2 fiend still so this is when I just don’t want to talk to anyone but it’s been a time sink for sure.

                                          @iammortalcombat Yeah, I'm playing on my own to start off with too. I'd like to get a team together for a dedicated playthrough. I have seen online and heard from others that it can be absolute chaos - lots of japes to be had with throwing one another off of cliffs, pickpocketing one another while you're distracted by dialogue, etc. It sounds fun!
