I started Balder's Gate 3 today. I love the amount of customisation for creating your character, although I don't understand why you're able to strip them completely naked? Anyway, I've got a blonde haired, blue eyed female human rogue... 😜

Joking aside though, it's good fun and gets me my DnD fix.

Witcher 3!

I had started this game many times 10 years when I got it free with my 980 Ti.  

It never grabbed me then, but it has now.  I'm almost at level 9, neck deep in the Crones of Crookbag Bog.  

###### game is huuuuuuuuuuuuuggggggggggggeeeeeee.

Witcher 3 is a game I bought on the cheap for £10  or less many years ago and I never really played it but now I have a PS5 Pro I really should give it a proper go.

I'm currently playing Assassins Creed Mirage on PS5 Pro and loving it.

Witcher 2 - i tried to start it 3-4 times before getting into it,   Witcher 3 maybe twice. 

But when you finally get going and build momentum in those games - damn, its good. It is nice to play GOTY editions with all the expansions for the game to be complete and everything happen organically, at the levels you want.  if you are playing the base game, add the expansions WHILE you are still near the beginning, you will thank me later.

Stalker II what a game!! I never played any of the originals so this is is all new for me. 

I'm just loving exploring the map at the moment the story can wait!

Playing on a quite a recent PC so performance is good and no serious bugs yet so no complaints from me.

I can't deal with how slow KCDII is, i just don't have the patience for so much boring dialoge and fetch and chose quest time.  wow, i wanted to love it and i love some parts but damn it is testing patience without enough reason to motivate me to keep going....

 

anyone finished it yet?

Jedi Survivor looks gorgeous and plays fantastic on the PS5 Pro, it's a shame I actually bought it in the sales before Christmas because it's now dropped on PS+ along with God of War Ragnarok which I also recently bought but atleast they were cheap.

I loved Fallen Order, I'm wondering how Survivor will play console vs. keyboard...Maybe I should just get a controller for the laptop...

Why do all of my purchases happen at the beginning of the year?!

I'm about 30 hours into KCD2 and enjoying it. I made sure I replayed the original before hand just to get back into the story.  Haven't yet gone to the wedding but getting close.

Both great games.

I should probably give immortals another try

bought it on day one but after first 4-5 hours I got so bored of the same stuff

 

like there was nothing existing to keep going …

mirage was ok too - never got through it but never felt it was bad in any major way either - above average quality 

 

but immortals - I need to give it another go one day

Finishing up Avowed, and also Citizen Sleeper.   Might jump right into Citizen Sleeper 2 or play the new sniper elite, it's a coin toss.

I keep meaning to finish up Avowed as I love it but then I also just started FF16 since it was on sale so...sigh.

AC shadows

so far - much better then Valhalla for me and I am not losing interest after 2-3 hours play like Valhalla 

maybe it’s the Japanese surroundings but so far I love it

I'd love to try it for the environment/exploration but the AC formula doesn't really work for me anymore.  What I've played of Mirage was fun it was just...bleh.

I finished it up last night, around 74hrs total for me, good times, hope they do a sequel.  Expansion would be hard to do since they don't have a NG+ but maybe a post ending expansion you can jump into with a clear save?    Guess we'll see.

    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
