Haven't played TQ, but also heard good things about it. It looks like TQ 2 is coming soon also? So hopefully not all is lost for ARPG genre 🙂

Tried Diablo 4 over the "free weekend". Must say I'm quite disappointed and can really see why the game has so many negative reviews. It's still kind of fun if you like the genre, but I'm just not getting the proper Diablo feeling out of it. But for the price they're asking for it, even during discounts... not worth it IMO.

 

This was exactly my feeling too but sadly I couldn't resist and bought it on release. Couldn't refund it... one of my most regretted purchases in gaming...

Also tried out Grim Dawn (quite similar game to Diablo), which immediately felt way more thought out and interesting, despite being like 6 years old now, or smth.

 

D4 was good enough for a one run playthrough, which is typically how I play Diablo.. Run it once and then play it again a bit down the line after expansion..

 

Grim Dawn is fantastic, they are still pumping out patches and there's an expansion coming. I had backed that when they were crowdfunding on their own site before kickstarter was a thing. 100% due to how great Titan Quest was. Good to see they are still making it happen.

 

Path of Exile 2 also looks like it's going to be good.

Happy New Year everyone!

 

Haven't been playing a lot lately, more darts practice and now we've discovered that bowling is also fun... which means even less screen time for me 😆

 

I did see a new play test demo of Road to Vostok. It's a real promising game but it'll be a while. The dev just finished porting what he had done before to a new engine. Looks awesome though.

 

Other than that, I sort of fell off Tarkov and now I keep wanting to try Star Citizen again. It usually doesn't end well but who knows.

 

Oh yeah, I've been also messing with AC Valhalla... I'd really like to get through it this time.

[ryan]

@cucubits have you seen the new mirage AC? looks really good graphically and runs well. should be another good game worth checking out.

[jaybee83]

anyone tried star wars jedi survivor and/or avatar frontiers of pandora yet? thinking of checking out both 🙂

I did see it and because of AC Mirage, I wanted to play Valhalla. I have a friend who's really a big AC fan and he kept recommending Valhalla. He just finished Mirage, says it was shorter than he expected... didn't sound too impressed.

bummer, I guess Ill check it out with connect plus. @jaybee83 the starwars one you mentioned is a great game but runs like crap, only a rich person with a 4090 would be able to play it at 4k lol, I guess thats you. you might like it if your into tombraider esque games

😆 I did jump into Star Citizen last night, with the new update and all, and as expected it went almost exactly the same way as all my previous sessions:

 

Jumped in, the usual create character, chose home planet, start, go to the spaceport, get in the ship and do a quick and easy (I thought) quest. I chose a simple investigation mission which just means flying to a cave on a moon and searching for a dead body. I did just that, found the cave, explored it until I got to a dead end and proceeded to get stuck there forever because my dude would refuse to vault over a clearly vaultable rock (marked by the usual yellow ledge). 10 out of 10. Closed the game and went to sleep.

hahaha guess i earned that call-out @"rich person" with my setup 😛 

 

yeah i heard about the crappy performance, but i thought it might have changed by now with updates and such...

Im playing The Outer Worlds and some Far Cry 6, its free on gamepass, its a reskin of  5 not  that much changes, but its ok to shutdown the brain and just play and wreak havoc in the game.

[ryan]

just bought a 4tb external ssd installed 130 games and checked out the witcher 2. im getting 27fps maxed at 4k with my 3060, demanding game even today and looks great. had fun with the time I played also checked out rdr2 got to the part when you rescue the guy from the wolves. really well done its like playing a hollywood movie will be bouncing back into that one for sure, wonder how long to beat rdr2

[ryan]

just playing grid legends, looks great at night in the rain and pretty fun. unrealistic stearing but arcade like racers tend to be better unless its  gran turismo

[Reciever]

Horizon Forbidden West and Helldivers 2! 

[ryan]

Finally Purchased the new asseto comp--. 14 quid but great reviews and @Reciever recommended it(thanks) so it was a no brainer. will report if I like it, as racing games are my fortay
