I'd also recommend getting Nuka World and Far Harbor expansions. Many prefer Far Harbor but I really like Nuke a World.

I thought Far Harbor's story was even better than the main game. Excellent dlc.

Gonna do a Fallout 4 playthrough with Life in the Ruins modlist, never actually finished the game.
Golden rule of the wasteland...
"Thou shalt get sidetracked by bullsh*t every goddamn time."

Took me a LOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time to finish Fallout 4 for that reason, the main story is so meh that after a while I forgot there was an actual main quest to complete until I got bored and came back to it. It's actually a rug-pull and you have to get over that hump but the end is actually pretty good and there's multiple way s to finish it, it's just that they failed to make you really bond with the family and make you chase it. An alternate point of view though is that the real point of Fallout 4 is the side quests, not the main story, which kind of makes sense in a way.

I'd also recommend getting Nuka World and Far Harbor expansions. Many prefer Far Harbor but I really like Nuke a World.

yea i have all the expansions because some modlists require them lol. that quote from the show had me dying when i heard it, meanwhile I'm not sure my parents understood it and looked at me weird. man that was a good show. you can tell the people who made it actually played the games.

Might play the original first since it's on sale but I heard everyone talking about how great the game is.

Hades 2, $29.99 pretty spensive..  wroth?

I'd pay $40 for the actual full game because the first one was great and I know the quality and time I get will be worth, but an early access that's over a year away from completion $30 is a bit steep.

The graphics look very good, extremely colorful, tempting.

Rogue Genesia. I love Survivor-type games, and got this last night and was instantly addicted. Better than most I have played, and it is still pretty early access.

Also Death Must Die with the new update. DMD is shaping up to be a really solid title. Basically Hades meets Vampire Survivors, good powers, voice acting, some fun dialogue. I'd recommend both, especially for the price.

i have a fanatec csl elite. cant comment on value for dollar since my uncle gave it to me for free but its really good, super smooth cuz direct drive as opposed to the cheaper logitech wheel (that my uncle also gave me lmao) but the logitech wheel is good if u dont wanna spend a lot. anyways i usually get advice from sim racing discord servers there are some really friendly and helpful ones out there

just so u know though night-runners doesn't support wheel, and i believe wheel support isn't planned either so far.

I maintain that that game is more cinematic experience and less game, but it's a story that everyone should experience. I told people after it came out if you don't have a PS5, go watch a playthrough becaue the story is just worth it.

Picked up CP2077 again after a couple of years away and hot damn I love this game.

Also played a good 50 hours of RDR2 after picking it up last year and loved that as well despite not even coming close to finishing it.
Can we get them to build the Alps ten feet higher and get Cherry to pay for it?

Recently played through Dark Souls 3 for the first time since it came out. I absolutely think it is by FAR the best in the trilogy. Best enemy AI, best level design, best bosses, and the quality of life changes make it so much less frustrating to get through without feeling like you've got training wheels.

I am also currently playing through Dark Souls 1, which I am finding to be a janky, poorly designed and optimized mess, with horrid level design, and altogether feels like it is all barely being held together with twine and twigs. Still a great game, but damn the lack of budget, time, and experience the team had to work with really shows. Punishing and overtly cruel at the worst of times, and inconvenient and petty at the best of times.

Currently playing Nioh 2.
Brutal, unforgiving, and insanely difficult. Every level is more difficult than the previous one. This game is for masochists, and makes Dark Souls look like Cookie Clicker.

Heard that game was good, but I don't think I will play it if you say it's that hard. Elden ring's difficulty is enough for me thanks.

Lately, I've really gotten into online casinos, and I have to say, the OfferLuxCasino service has been a huge help. They always keep me up-to-date on the best casino offers and promotions, which has really allowed me to come out ahead. And for anyone who uses Neteller as their payment method, I'd definitely recommend checking them out- https://offerluxcasino.com/pagamento/cassinos-neteller. The combination of the top casino deals and the convenience of Neteller has been a game-changer for me. I'm grateful to have found a resource that helps me maximize my online gambling experience and profits

Konami trying to charge $70 in the US for the Silent Hill 2 remake?!? Generally speaking, games that already have 3/4 of the work already done for you do not hit that price point. One of my favorite games, and I literally wrote my college thesis on it, but fuuuuuuck that noise.

Yeah, great game, but price is not right...

It seems like they targeted 30fps.  4090 can only squeeze out 50ish on 4K with Raytracing.

I guess that's fine given how slow the game movement is.  Looks like they spent all the graphical budget on the volumetric smoke and lighting. Makes sense, but, mm... some of the 3D models look lazy.

Is it really that addictive?

If you like cookie clicker, then yes. It's a a deep immersion clicker.

I guess if we had to, it can be said that every game boils down to a spreadsheet + graphics. This is one of the very cool looking/ fun ones.

If they threw in a more involved story, it could even win an award.

Arm0r c0re 4,  nostalgic, but it's just not as refined. The laser swords aren't nearly as satisfying.

I've been losing myself in Jedi Knight: Jedi Outcast, starring the former Imperial officer-turned jedi, Kyle Katarn, on the Oculus Quest. It was ported to VR by the incredible Team Beef.  :thumb:

Why do they keep writing terrible dialogue like this? Who is this made for? Have developers learned nothing from Avengers, Forespoken, and Saints Row? Who keeps hiring and giving work to these absolute hacks?

This is what happens when you let humans do an AI's job.

More AI, better dialogue.

The new Factorio: Space Age DLC has been hugely addicting. There is now a point to launching rockets: Automating on other planets!

A few friends got me into League of Legends and have to admit it can be fun after getting the hang of a couple champs.

Still waiting for GTA:VI above all else
