      Decided to grab Path of Exile 2.

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

              Anyone try the Indiana Jones game yet? It's pretty decent from what I've experienced so far

                @GardenState graphics look incredible from what I’ve seen. Is the gameplay heavy on puzzles? Not that I would mind that

                  @SKT So far, no, there was one puzzle, and it was easy. There is stealth and the graphics are amazing I'm running it on a 4070 ti and it looks brilliant.

                    Modern Warfare 2 is a classic I’ve spent hours on that back in the day.

                        Ha! Looks so good. I played a couple of seasons of Diablo 4 and it's fine but once you get into the end game it felt like a grind even with the seasonal changes.

                        I never played POE so jumping into the beta/early access should be fun. The internet naturally moaning that the game is too hard. Think they're missing the point of 'early access'.

                          @Nick It's more about the talent tree system. It's very complex. If you geek out on building insane builds and pouring hours into researching how individual talents align that it's a blast. The passive talent tree though makes it difficult.

                            @GardenState Yeah, it looks maddening that talent tree. YouTube is going to be doing a lot of hand holding in the next few months 😅

                              @Nick Yeah if I play it (because my friends are) I will wait until they figure out all of the "good builds" for me.

                                @Nick Hell yeah man have fun! I tried a few classes to find the one that fit my play style (monk) and then just dove in. I'm stacking crit and defense in the skill tree and having a blast with it.

                                With POE I think part of the point is to be overwhelmed, to just pick a node and go for it and as you improve, everything feels more natural and slows down. Just my 2 cents but I feel like they've done a great job with it

                                  They listen to the community. I've just seen the new patch notes and the changes already looks great. Of course, we have 6 months to 1 year of this before the game officially releases as final product.

                                  Will be fun. And I 100% agree. I don't mind being overwhelmed. Considering I love video games that have a harsh learning curve, being lost and then praying for a meta build will one option for sure!

                                    Somehow my kids have turned me into a real Fortnite fan. @JoshC i remember you mentioned that some of the games other than battle royale are really good. Any recommendations for games that would improve my building skills and aim? I’m good enough that I don’t embarrass my kids anymore but would like to be an asset in squads.

                                      @SKT Not sure about building as I only play no build on FN, but for aiming, just practice really and practising your tracking of players, learning the recoil patterns of weapons, if you are good/used to the recoil patterns but you're losing out on movement when players are too close you should increase your sensitivity I can't remember what mine is on FN, but I know for Warzone it starts at like a 6 and I have moved it up to a 10 so I can flick round quicker if I am getting shot at from behind or if someone tries to break my camera angle, but communication and pings are always important so you can let your team know where enemies are etc.

                                      I always feel it's important to warm up. We go into private games or public team death matches just to warm up, or we play a little 2 v 2 with our teammates to warm up; we always do that before we do something like ranked or BR in general.

                                        @JoshC thanks for the recommendations! It’s a struggle for me to get better. Just when I think I’m really improving, I drop into a match with some sweats and they just smoke me. It’s very humbling (and embarrassing for my kids). The building stuff is really hard to get down, I should probably stick to zero build just to improve my basic skills. Anyway, thanks…I’m enjoying this new season with the Japanese themes!

                                            I got Path of exiles 2 for ps5 before the holidays and it's a great game. Little bit like Diablo meets Elden Ring
