Pokémon Scarlet - really good game minus the obvious performance issues.

I've finished the main game / most of the post game, just need to work on the Pokedex now which will take some time.

Playing through A plagues tale requiem with some halo infinite MP on the side. 

I don't know what I'll jump into next, have to check my backlog. 

That game's poster reminds me of Grave of Fireflies by Studio Ghibli. Man, I don't want to watch that film ever again.

Portal RTX

...soooo pretty.

Edit: and I'm done.  Forgot how short the game is.

Now playing Quake Dimension of the Past. 

 

FYI:  Amazon Prime gaming has Quake w/ “The Scourge of Armagon," “Dissolution of Eternity,” “Dimension of the Past,” and “Dimension of the Machine" for free.

Hit me up and we'll trade exclusives, I already have my violet dex at 239~ish caught

Very nearly platinumed Death Stranding Directors Cut on PS5 it's been a most expected awesome journey considering I thought I'd be bored shitless when I started it months ago!

Finally got Platinum with 250hrs playtime and the only game played over the last 3.5 months! It will be missed.

Trying Return to Monkey Island now, apparently it's really good.

It is - there was only one thing that upset me but I won’t spoil it.

 

I have been bored and wanted to play something new

 

i totally missed the outer worlds - when people said it was amazing I always though it was the outer wilds game they talk about which I did not like

outer wilds is like borderlands 1 and even better (I got sick of crazy amounts of loot in later versions)

 

And the cheesy alien world RPG got me hooked - playing though the expansions now - though some talk is too “politically correct” it is almost laughable- I enjoy a good laugh

Mass Effect Legendary 

 

wow I am having totally different experience then when I tried ME2 and then Me1 afterwards 

me2 was good before and me1 was not

 

now everything is amazing - I enjoyed me1 like I could not before and playing me2 now 

 

It is real nice to have such improved games and playing them in a row with the same character

 

 

as I love sci fi - this is a treat I did not expect to be honest

Just finished Stray last night. Unbelievable game, albeit short.

I didn't expect it to be as gritty, yet beautiful as it is. Soundtrack is on point, and a few callbacks to HL2 as well that I certainly appreciated.

People who whine about Stray because it is a “walking simulator” and not dead souls like game just don’t get it

 

i loved stay for the atmosphere- story and gameplay were good enough to for me to keep exploring the world that fascinated me. 
 

I really enjoyed stray a lot. I am not sure it is a game to write more lore about - but for a few hours of pure wondering about it was fantastic 

 

 

ps. Almost done ME2 legendary and it is a lot of fun - now that I stared from the beginning and know the lore - everything seems more exciting- then jumping in ME2 with zero knowledge like I did last time or trying to catch up on me1 when it was super dated in graphics and controls already.

 

Last time I quit me3 early on because i did not feel the game - now if all my character decisions carry on - this will make so much more sense 

 

TLDR - Mass Effect Legendary- if you like sci-fi and did not already enjoy the games - it is a good time to try it out

 

i did not like the idea of constantly remaking games but in this case the remade trilogy makes perfect sense

Totally agree. I actually need to finish the legendary trilogy. I stopped somewhere on the first game and never went back, but I was thoroughly enjoying the game. One of the last good Bioware games. I also need to finish DA: Origins for that matter. :p

    • Linux 7.1 stable launch looms as Linus Torvalds releases the final release candidate by Paul Hill Linus Torvalds has just released what’s expected to be the final release candidate of Linux 7.1, rc7. The Linux founder said that this RC is not small, but smaller than recent releases, which is a good sign because he expects the stable version to drop next week if things continue on this trajectory. Linux kernels see a merge window for the first two weeks of their life, where developers add new features, then there are about seven or eight weeks of release candidates before the stable version. Typically, there are seven release candidates, but if more time is needed, then an eighth release candidate is released too. This week’s RC’s biggest area of fixes was for GPUs, with networking just behind. Torvalds said that the rest of the release was “pretty random and spread out” with some architecture fixes, driver fixes, filesystem improvements, and build fixes for more unusual configs. In terms of specific pieces of hardware receiving improvements in this update, we had more AMD Zen6 models supported and fixes for AMD SDMA 7.1 and GFX11. Hardware that got improvements includes Lenovo laptops, HONOR laptops, and MSI laptops. Here are the changelogs for those: ASoC: amd: acp: Add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Pro 7 15ASH11 Input: atkbd - add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Air 14 (83QK) Input: atkbd - skip deactivate for HONOR BCC-N's internal keyboard ASoC: amd: yc: Add MSI Raider A18 HX A9WJG to quirk table ASoC: amd: yc: Enable internal mic on MSI Bravo 17 C7VF When the stable Linux 7.1 is released, it will be up to distribution maintainers, such as Canonical and Red Hat, to release the update to their users via the update manager. Some versions of Linux will get it before others, and some will never get it at all. Fedora and Arch-based distros will be among the first to get it, though. If you don’t get it, the security fixes will be backported to your system’s kernel, so you won’t be at risk, but you won’t get newer hardware support, which is fine if your computer works now.
