Got South Park The Stick of Truth recently in a Steam sale for $6 and just got through the main story on that today.

 

Just found South Part The Fractured But Whole now for $20 for my switch and will be picking that up when the shipment gets to Walmart on Wednesday or Thursday.

 

Gotta love South Park lol

Had to put Black Mesa on pause for now (about an hour into Xen).  Xen, btw, looks really nice.

 

Now playing Doom Eternal ... it looks and runs great.  My only issue is all of the platforming.  I mean...holy crap...it's almost like Mirror's Edge.  Also, you can burn through your "extra lives" really quick in some areas ... if you get into a situation without lower tier possessed and no ammo.

Always leave them for last and take out the bigger enemies so you have the ability to get stuff when needed.

 

As for me I'm playing Sekiro.

I've recently gotten back into Flight Sims, been playing FSX:SE this past week, also in the FS2020 alpha but got the ghost patch issue so can't play it right now... might pick up xplane 11

I know it's pretty early but how's FS2020 looking so far?

Doom Eternal, playing it through on Nightmare and really enjoying it so far, difficulty is a step up from 2016 and the combat is even better. Not a huge fan of the spiderman sections nor having the chainsaw be such a core part of ammo management, but overall a solid 9/10 game. 

 

Still kind of playing Ori 2 and Nioh 2 too, so many good games recently (and upcoming), haven't been interested in many games the last few years but now there's 8-9 coming out all this year!

Just completed all professions in RDR2 Online so now I am looking for new things to play.  RDR2 online seems to be stagnant and little to no new content.  Hopefully that is fixed soon.

 

I played GTA5 on the 360, campaign, and trying to see if it will be worth it to get GTA5 for the X1 and play online or not.

If you are like me you might be disappointed by the sequel. I loved the Stick of Truth but I never got too far in to the but whole (lol)

 

Both story and gameplay was off. SoT had some priceless moment s though 

As someone who's never understood the interest in Animal Crossing, I'm using it as a stress/anxiety reliever. Working for an MSP coupled with living by myself, unable to see my girlfriend with all this COVID-19 junk... Creating a ton of stress for me.

 

Also playing a little WoW and COD: Warzone. Warzone is actually pretty great. Very fluid gameplay @ 150 players with the level of graphics they're outputting.

Compare that to Black Ops 4 which struggled at launch with 80 players, poor graphics, and a barren map by comparison...

I quite enjoyed it actually; just finished it up late last week. May pick up the DLC at some point :)

Been thinking about GTAV online but not sure.  Is it worth it?

 

I liked RDR2 online until the content stopped being produced.  I have gone as far as I can go and just looking for another long/time consuming game to play.

I can't tell you much about GTA V online. Just like RDR2, I'm only playing it for the singleplayer experience. But I've heard that they are still making new content and new events, so if you can pick up a copy at a discount I'd say give it a whirl.

GTA Online is worth it if you have friends to play with otherwise it's just the same ol same ol as single player but with others running around as well if you're on a public server.

 

there's also races and what not you can jump in to if that interests you; those are separate from the main world/game.

    • I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.
    • I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.
    • The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.
    • I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
