  1. I'll add the following:

    The Indiana Jones series - Some are based off the movies and it's fun doing other things from what the character did in the movies.  There was one that was not based on a movie that was also fantastic.  

    Kentucky Route Zero - good story, kinda creepy.  Reminds me I never finished it since chapters were slowly released, I need to revisit.

     

    If want something newer:

    Disco Elysium - does have a ton of reading, but the story and environment is fantastic

    Untitled Goose Game - just fun to mess with people as a goose

     

    I never played Thimbleweed Park or Unwritten Tales but my wife said they were good.  I remember her saying on Unwritten Tales, some of the puzzles were difficult and she had to look it up.

    We've been doing Jackbox with various groups of people for the past couple days. It works great streaming over Discord. Definitely gonna be burnt out of it at some point though.

    Which games, in your opinion, are the best ones?

  3. Both recent AssCreed games are cheap right now and play very similar to an action RPG (like Witcher). Not sure if you got to play Odyssey for free during this past weekend.  Also Odyssey is crazy huge and definitely can sink in hours of time on it. 

    Edit: Just saw you most likely already played both Asscreeds so....

     

    I as well could never finish a Dark Souls game mainly cause the genre stresses me out.  The furthest I ever gotten was the first one.  Sekiro is definitely a different vibe, IMO.  There is less rolling around like Blanka that most of this genre has and it's not as emo death like the others.  The combat/movement in Sekiro is fantastic and it's the first souls type game I played and finished sans the optional ultra hard boss.

    Maybe it looked daunting to you but it seemed pretty standard to me, in fact less than an elder scrolls game. I mean you can just pick a standard class you don't really even have to assign anything and you'll figure it out as you go.

    You want something intimidating then look at Path of Exile. I mean it wasn't hard for me to understand either but some people look at the sphere grid and say, "nope!"

    DOS non-linearity will kill off casual gamers IMO.  It took me forever to get past the first "world" or whatever you want to call it by the time I got to the 2nd, I was ready to move on to another game.

  5. I have og launch ps3 and had loading problems only playing CoD back in the day so I thought I had a bad disk so I returned it to the store for another copy and same issue.  Other games played fine but not sure if there was something unique to CoD during loading. I had someone replace the Blu-ray player in it for pretty cheap.  I don't remember what the repair guy said but something about the older Blu-ray reader in them sucked compared to the newer model.  Maybe similar issue here?

    I never really got into Animal Crossing, so the new one would be a good time to try, but what exactly is the appeal of the series? It's not like an adventure, or action, or puzzle game where I know the objective and what to aim for. It just seems to be a game about doing chores to decorate. I only ever tried the Wii game, but since online sucked for that system I guess I wasn't really all that engaged as I could be. I'll give this new one a shot to see if it's my thing. Seems like a game you need to play with friends. 

     

    it's one of those games to get your gf/wife/mother to quit complaining to you about playing video games all day because they will be playing animal crossing all day/night.  Think it's considered a sim.

    Played the BR practice mode just to see how it is.. I don't generally care for BR. I found me a nice semi-auto rifle with iron sights and went on a 13-kill streak and won the round.

     

    I'm good until the next one comes out lol.

    You mean the practice mode where you fight against NPCs?  Lol

     

    I gave warzone a try since it's free.  It's basically an Apex legends rip off.  I do like it due to the low ttk.  It doesn't make it impossible to be in a gun fight against a larger team and have frequently won 2v1 engagements.

    Well they do. You don’t have to buy the battle pass and it still gives you free unlocks. They also sell gun/operator skins with no impact on the game. also if you do buy the battle pass and play pretty frequently - you actually get your money back, so the next season is free. So it’s basically a one-time, optional purchase of $10. 
     

    if this means new maps and modes are released on a pretty steady basis as they’ve been doing - I’m 100% on board with this model. 
     

     

     

    This sounds pretty neat actually.
