Twitch Prime games are up. Two GOG keys this month (Frostpunk & Journey to the Savage Planet), no EGS. Need for Speed: HP Remastered for Origin. Twitch Launcher games: Morkredd, Spellcaster University, Youtubers Life (lol Twitch), Stubbs the Zombie in Rebel Without a Pulse, and the Tales of Monkey Island.

Just a heads up for anyone looking for cheap keys or if you have a Prime acct.
alright I'll go look for a Savage Planet key then

Titanfall was one of the first "modern day PC games that I played. I will always have memories and also TF1> TF2
------

Titanfall 1 is the reason I wanted a Xbox One rather than a PS4. I'm glad that I ended up getting a PC and that I could play the game there.


Had it been on Steam the game would have lasted a lot longer.

So what is everyone Christmas game?
I will probably sound like a broken record, but it will mainly be Endwalker for me. Have a half day on Friday for the launch and will probably hammer it this weekend. But then play it normally after that.

Other than that, Christmas is horror season for me so probably Tormented Souls, finish Resi 2 Remake and play Resi 3 Remake.

Thanks for new thread Mor Hope you are well lashman and come back soon!! We miss you! ❤

Mhm, Christmas games huh? Honestly I think It'll just be the usuals for me. FFXIV is gonna be big with Endwalker starting very soon! (Less than 12 hours for maintenance, than early access starts!) And R6 Siege just got updated with it's newest season and Battlepass also. Those two games are my bread and butter lol.

That said, I'd like to make some progress on other things. Single player things... I'm working on two Zeldas on Switch (SS HD and BotW) and I've still yet to finish NieR A on PC. (When i finished it, it was PS4 Pro version.) and also my playthrough of FF1 Pixel Remaster. I'd like to finish that...

When things are slow, I'd like to be reading VN's in downtime. Honestly I have a lot to do and stay occupied with!!
===========

May everyone have a warm and healthy December. Let's celebrate them holidays and look forward to 2022 together! :blobhug:
(For southern hemisphere folks, stay cool! Summer suckssss >_<)

Funny that some of you are talking about Andromeda. I'm having such a blast revisiting the trilogy that I'm considering giving it a chance after I'm done. I've heard so many bad things but some of you seem to like it, so I dunno...

By the way, it's not listed in the controls, I think, but if you hold down Ctrl over a space, it'll highlight which surrounding spaces it affects. Really useful in the puzzles with diagonals, which I tend to overlook.
Huh. This is cool and I should probably map it to a mouse button.
And yeah, I played some earlier today, 20 or so puzzles and I think the I remember now that the diagonal switching was the last straw and made me quit last time. I need to constantly check if the diagonal rule is in place in a puzzle. The way Hexcells does the modifiers is smarter I think, like numbers in brackets and such. So it's right there on the thing you are looking at and not tucked away in the corner. I'm going to power through it this time though.

PC?
Andromeda is in a much better place than at launch. I can see why some people still have some issues with it like they don't like some characters, or the pacing, story beats etc but for me it scratched that Mass Effect itch really nicely so i wasn't that bothered. I finished it 3 times, once on PS4 and twice on PC.
I also ran a couple of mods that improved things for me, nothing major but one that accelerates your XP to level 5, one that rebalances some powers and i think a basic appearance mod for something maybe lipstick, eyes or hair? I forget. Nexus mods should have a bunch of good stuff now.
If you want more Mass Effect and aren't put off by not having the old crew then Andromeda is fine. the combat and skills management are really good. It can be a bit repetitive if you binge certain mission types but that's the same for most games.

I might actually replay it soon, i keep saying i will but never get around to it.

I can't say Andromeda is a great a game, but it is ... "fine". It has it's moments and it can certainly give you a dose of "Mass Effect" while you wait (for a long time) for a new one. Specially if you liked exploring with the Mako in the original game.

I actually replayed it this year after playing the Legendary edition. The gameplay is still decent and the visuals hold up. I used some mods for adding a little more liberty to power switching and cutting out some loading screens, but nothing too game changing.

Just stick to main and big side quests. The filler ones are just as bad as Dragon Age Inquisition, just with some voice over lines added.

Glad I've been saving up my double XP boosters in Infinite.

If you strategically use them with the new daily xp bumps it will level you up fast. I leveled like 3 levels in about 40 minutes :p

Ugh, I would be tempted to play Blasphemous, but with the last dlc coming up, I'm not sure how it will be integrated.

Returning to Fallout3 for the first time in so many years and the story/writing will never not bore me. The whole father and son stuff. The same with Fallout4 like wtf Bethesda.

I really hope Starfield isn't a 300hr game about a son warping around the galaxy looking for his dad. Please Bethesda do something more original and interesting.

New thread smell, etc etc. Great job Mor. We still miss you lashman .


Damn everyone. Inscryption continues to be a banger. People NEED to play this thing. Making strong moves for my GotY list.

For Xmas this year I'm traveling to see family and probably won't be on much sadly. But I'll try and still check out the sweet deals. Can't stop filling the backlog just cause I'm out of town lol.
