Thanks for the info, iKobrakai. I’ve always had a love for games like Sekiro. Just hadn’t found a good enough reason to buy it. Might wait until after Christmas and see what’s good.

No problemo.

By the way, right now I'm stuck. Boss A is hard as fuck. Boss B has a fuckton of minions. Boss C is too early to tackle. So, I'be pretty pissed if I payed money for this. If you have not bought it yet, wait for a sale, because as of now I just want to toss the fucking disc out of the window. I'll get back during the weekend, most likely.

Honestly, that's my experience with most games of that style. I play with a scavenger mindset, so I tend to just get absolutely fucking lost in the environment looking for literally anything that could help me in the long run.

I forgot to mention it on here but a few months ago I finally beat the original Shinobi arcade machine in an actual arcade. At age 43.

Life goals.

Just hopped on GTA online for the first time in a while just because of the snow. Really the only time I enjoy it at this point.

I'm playing Sekiro again after some Dark Souls 3.

Honestly, the first play through of Sekiro is the hardest, by far. Once you have a full health bar, 10 gourds, a few of the more useful prosthetics, and know generally what to do it's a lot easier. NG++ is a comparative breeze and you can skip nearly everything but the main bosses.


Tips: A few mini bosses like the Headless and Shichimen warrior you should wait until the endgame to bother with.

Aside for a handful of exceptions, nearly every mini boss can be taken down one bar with a stealth attack. Take advantage of that.

Dodge is mostly worthless compared to Dark Souls - there are only a few spots where you want to use it. Parry, mikiri counter, run, or jump. If you need to heal, run to put some distance between you and the enemy.

Psychonauts, finally. Should've sought it out back in the day. And actually check out what Tim Schafer and co. had been doing between Full Throttle and the Cave.

Loaded up RDR2 for the first time since finishing it, forgot the controls and shot a guy at a poker table. Closed it back down immediately. I think I should replay from the beginning

Star wars fallen order. I rarely play video games and wanted something wholesome. Playing in Story Mode now and it's fun, keeps the mind occupied. MIL is in town, we don't speak the same language, will be playing for the entire time she's here.

Rented la noire remaster and finished it. My girlfriend actually really liked it so she played a ton of it with me. Not  a bad game but also very little to do outside of the actual investigations, which get pretty monotonous after a while. The open world aspect is just kind of dead. Had fun though but unless you really like detective shit and noire films I wouldn't recommend it.

Found a ps3 version at goodwill and have been working through it recently.
I originally put it down years ago cause I was impatient and it was not GTA or Max Payne.

Enjoying it now though.

Having fun playing Red Dead 2 but the story is a bit annoying.

"Hey Dutch you think we should be doing this?"
"Arthur you must have faith in me, all we need is this last score."

(Robbery goes wrong, repeat 10x)

I have more fun doing the side stuff. Fuck Dutch, I know he's gonna fuck me over in the end.

This has been Red Dead online for me so far. Just like 50mm said in the previous post the single player story can be tedious, so online is what I've mostly been playing so far.

Killer queen black, really fun game. If you have friends to play with it’s awesome, communication is kinda key even though the goals are simple.


You got questions? Ask me like a fucking man. You know my Insta.

Alright, I got into Sekiro again. Some progress, at last. Some bosses are just relentless... I need something to play inbetween my attempt, Sekiro is just to gnarly to play full time.

Playing the newish God Of War I bought myself for Christmas.

It’s pretty enjoyable. I don’t think the combat is super great and the piss-off-mom gore is kinda cringey but it’s been a while since I’ve played a non-Fromsoft game where you steadily progress without major roadblocks and get to take in the scenery. Q

My wife got me a Switch for Christmas along with Legend Of Zelda: Link's Awakening Collectors Edition and a $20 Nintendo market giftcard. Ended up buying Cuphead since it was only $16 after tax. Both incredible games.

Link's Awakening is seriously beefed up from the Gameboy version. Graphics aside...the enemies are tougher and it just feels like a brand new game again.
Can't wait to get my hands on BOTW and Smash Ultimate.

Just started Star Wars: Fallen Order. I've never played a Souls-like game so I am very bad.

Just started playing Control. Looking forward to where the game goes, it seems really cool.

I've put it down the past week since I don't want it to end! Definitely my favorite game of the year. Love all that conspiracy/urban legend shit, and the whole creepy shifting/never ending rooms stuff like in the book, house of leaves. Great game.

Playing Mega Man 11 right now, about half way through, and I'm surprised at how good it is. Never played any of the other ones between 7 and this one. So far 11 is not the best MM game but I'm enjoying it. I've always like the series though. 2 and 3 the most, but damn I forgot how much I like that little dude. Fun yet challenging platformers. I feel like most people I ask don't seem to care for the series all that much, but I have played them a bunch as a kid upto around 7. Got the legacy pack on PSN sale also so I have the first 6 as well. Stoked!

UFC undisputed 3.  I bought a 360 a few weeks ago so I could play sports games over the winter time.

Bought Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild today and oh my fucking god it’s better than I could have imagined. Such a beautifully massive game.

I seriously underestimated just how massive and immersive this game is. I've already beaten two of the Goddess Trials and have SO MUCH ground to cover to get to the next few. Lowkey wishing I had brought it with me to work today...but, my wife wanted to play Bendy & The Ink Machine since she's off today.
