Thick Thighs Save Lives

I've been playing a lot of Wuthering Waves on PC ever since I started it a week ago. The combat and traversal are very well done for an open world gacha, and the character designs are some of the best I've seen in a gacha game as well. The music is pretty great too, like in this scene here.



Played it so much that I even managed to save enough pulls to get the current limited banner character, Camellya. :messenger_grinning_sweat:

Dying Light

It was on sale for $3.99, randomly bought it and about five hours in. Wow. What the fuck. I have no idea what I had in mind but it wasn't this tight, extremely fun and atmospheric game I'm playing.

I love the setting and soundtrack particularly. Also it started as a bit of a cakewalk but is starting to get pretty challenging, I like that.

Very cool game so far.

Quantum break.
Really enjoying it.
Tried starting it a few months back, got distracted, started again.
I like the fact your abilities are rolled out frequently from the beginning, so you can get used to them quickly and determine which ones to upgrade first based on your playstyle/preferences.
Better than games that drip feed you abilities right up till the end of the game, which (some of) will end up being underused as a result.
It's a looker too for such an early xbone release. Surprisingly so.

I’m last dungeon of Dragon Quest III HD-2D (I know I’m slow) but my god! Most of the enemies in dungeon inflect so many status aliments on your party like sleep and sealing magic spells….and sooooo much instant death spells, I don’t think even SMT goes this crazy with Hama and Mudo skills.
Really showing its NES roots I guess.

Started behemoth yesterday...

I probably be better off waiting to play more before, but I don't know if I am going to play anymore at all. This has been one of my most anticipated games, and I'm finding it a huge disappointment. :<

We're talking more about it in the PSvr2 thread, and the game has me thinking about the direction of VR games in general. Reports from VR centric outlets are glowing, but if this is one of the best VR games of they year, we're in trouble.

I bailed on Armored Core 6. Just not in the mood for this type of game right now. I don't feel like taking the time to constantly tinker with my mech and the missions were not so fun to where I was compelled to keep going. And I've never played an AC game before so it's still taking me time to adjust to it and some missions I played for 10+ minutes, died and I had to start over at the very beginning. That's what caused me to quit as much as anything, it didn't respect my time. I get why people love the game, but it's not my cup of tea.

Lately I've been focusing on FF7: Rebirth (PS5) - started chapter 13! Very good overall. On the side, I'm also doing trophy cleanup in Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning (PS4), and I'm 67% done between the main game and DLC. Next up, I will probably continue Hogwarts Legacy (XSX), and do trophy cleanup for Stellar Blade (PS5).

I remember my first experience with Yiazmat in Final Fantasy 12, that was a pain :messenger_tears_of_joy:
In the original game on PS2 I never killed him.
I managed to beat him but god damn he keep putting my party to sleep and even putting the Rousing Ring on my party doesn’t stop it completely. Really pain in the ass boss.

The DQ series loves such jokes on bosses, especially if you are not ready for them and are going through them for the first time and do not know. In the same Dragon Quest XI on the final boss, there is a mechanic that have a debuff that hangs on the characters, if in the presence of this debuff you cast a any Heal, the character receives damage for this amount instead of healing, in such an elegant way you can kill the entire group by unsuccessfully healing :messenger_grinning:

Thankfully you can do same to them, one of my caster has Duplic hat so they cast twice in the row without any extra cost on MP and I cast confusion on Hydra which takes away his turn and damaging himself.

Also Monster Wrangler is really good class, if you have recruited lot of monsters the Monster Pile-On skill will do lot of damage and combined that with Wild Side he will use that skill twice.

A good ways into this and loving it. Haven't seen too many actual wrestlers make an appearance yet. Hoping Bret Hart and British Bulldog show up at some point.

Excavation of Hobb's Burrow
You absolutely cannot beat a Yorkshire accent.

Warcraft Rumble
I saw that this launched for PC. Played a couple of battles and it seems okay. Something to play in short bursts.

Haven't played on the PS5 for a while. Might turn it on and try that Infinite Nikki game.

Finally beat Dragon Quest III and “nonsense” adventure is over (according to hero’s mom) it was really fun game.

But I have to say Zoma the final boss was MUCH easier than most of the bosses became before him, it was way too easy to put him to sleep and beat him with ease.

Recently I've only been playing games from the late 90s and early 00s. I don't know why, but they seem to be the only games that give me enjoyment at the moment.

Anyway, I've just started a new game of this beauty on the Switch and I'm loving it. This was Bioware at their peak.

Path of Exiles 2 mostly. It's more difficult than most AARPGs but the deep builds and the combat is top tier. Lots of versatility.

Among Ashes released today and loved the demo. Awesome indie multilayered. meta-breaking homage to survival horror. A game within a game.


Will play this when I beat Act 3 in PoE2

Finished Subnautica. I don't know if I should say "finished," but I played for around 9 hours on normal mode, then restarted on creative mode just to finish the story.

Currently playing a puzzle game called Filament.

Since I finished Dragon Quest III HD-2D, I decided to start playing Fantasia.

So far its interesting, they were going for PS1 style JRPG with pre-rendered background and I like you have aim shot to target multiple enemies.

It also has Lost Odyssey style text story with voice acting hand drawn art for background which I really liked......so far so good.
