Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (October 19-20)

Halo Guardians
Dead space remake
FH 4
Patiently waiting for COD campaign Friday.
Stalker 2 and Indy.

Mostly still Diablo 4 and perfecting my fireball sorcerer. While she has already killed everything in the game on torment 4 (current hardest difficulty) I am sure i can squeeze a bit more damage from the build.

I do want to spend a bit of time in Minecraft exploring a mod called Better on Bedrock that adds a whole bunch of different progression options, animations and well just more stuff to see & do.

Had a Just For You offer on Assassin's Creed Origins gold edition, so it I'll be diving back into that and Destiny 2

Another weekend of jumping between TotK end game and Alan Wake 2 ng+ while I'm waiting for Lake House arriving next week.

I’ve got a weird addiction to Age of Empires IV in skirmish mode at the moment. Nearly finished Crysis 2 remastered and will likely play some Forza Motorsport and Grid Legends. All on Series X.

Have a good one everyone.

Silent Hill 2, Mario Party Jamboree, Dragon Ball Sparking Zero, Unknown 9 Identity.

Started Lies of P and really liking it so far. I've been wanting to play it for a long time and am worried it'll leave gamepass.

I'll be on elden ring mostly and bit of GTA 5 campaign and that's probably it ha

The Plucky Squire - Im finished and I got the platinum. Overall I enjoyed the game, especially the 3d parts and some fun puzzles but the pacing and over explaining of everything was not great. If we get a sequel I would love for them to improve those things!

Dead Island 2 - Figured I’d give this a fair shot. Its not Dying Light but its pretty fun so far. Will keep playing, at least until some big games start dropping by the end of the month.

Gris - Decided to try it, seems like it could be a nice experience but only just started it. I usually like these kinds of games so high hopes 🙂

I'm feeling super nostalgic so I decided to grab Asterix and Obelix Romastered for a dirt cheap price. It's just as I remember, funny and chaotic lol.

Persona 3 Reload on Series X/ Laptop. Waiting for my Ps5 Pro before continuing Silent Hill and Rebirth

Continuing to resist the Dark Urge in BG3 on Series X. Might give Mechwarrior 5 a go later.

I finished my first playthrough in Silent Hill 2 Remake several days ago. I managed to get the “In Water” ending my first go-around. It was quite fantastic, and easily one of my favorite games of the year, if not my favorite. After I completed it, I subsequently reloaded my save and got the two additional mainline endings, which added a lot of context to a powerful story. I’m looking forward to getting the three remaining endings only obtainable by NG+, and hopefully get the platinum trophy while I’m at it.

I also just started Metaphor: Refantazio two days ago. I’m only seven hours in, reaching the completing the Nord Mines and even tested my mettle against the dragon—an optional boss fight—and won. I’m now met Hulkenberg and am trekking under the cathedral. With that said, being as I’m early on, I’m unable to give a proper review. However; I’m extremely impressed by nearly every aspect of this game.

The one thing that immediately stood out to me was its pacing—it doesn’t waste time throwing you into its world, characters, story and combat. I appreciate this approach more than Persona 5, a game I adore, but can never replay due to its long tutorial.

I also love how much artistic expression there is. In clever ways, too. The game has a ton of loading screens but you’re practically oblivious to it because each transitioning screen has cutscene elements that flow naturally with what you’re doing—combat encounters, walking into a new area, and even the pause menu. This might be the most stylish game I’ve ever played.

I’m looking forward to seeing the game evolve over time. This game is shaping up to be a special JRPG, and I believe Atlus is becoming the king of RPGs in the west. Bring on Persona 6, or whatever else they are cooking up; I’ll be here for the journey.

I finally got to sit down and play Metaphor Refantazio, I’m only an hour in but this game seems like it’ll live up to the hype. I’m also playing Echoes of Wisdom, nearly done with that.

Will continue with Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance this weekend aswell.

I'm near the end of Mass Effect 2 in the Legendary Edition and I'm also playing Massive Chalice which is pretty fun.
I've also bought both Retrorealms games (Halloween and Ash vs The Evil Dead), amazing stuff, but they crash pretty often.

100%’d Far Cry 4. In terms of gameplay, setting, and soundtrack working together to create pure fun, that game is a masterpiece. 3rd time I’ve completed it in 2 years. Wouldn’t recommend going for the collectibles though. 60fps on Series X is great, but wish it was 4k on consoles too.

Gonna revisit Borderlands 2 now for the first time since 2014. And then probably the PreSequel for the first time.

I was very curious to try Survival: Fountain of youth, but from what I read it's not in a good shape on Xbox. That's a shame.
Animal Well maybe then?

GTA Online for the first time in years. Gravel, whatever else I downloaded last night.

Hopefully wrapping up Crestwood in DAI and continuing with the main quest.

Xbox: Avatar Frontiers of Pandora. I'm not liking it so far, but I'll give at least 5h of gameplay before giving up.
Switch: Ni No Kuni. Playing it little by little before sleeping everyday. The art is just fantastic.
PC: X-Men Mutant Apocalypse (Snes via emulation). That's one of those games I've never finished when I was a kid but now it's the time!

Downloaded New World Aeternum last night, so look forward to playing that later today. Also playing Diablo IV Vessel of hatred, and mopping up straggler bots in the brilliant Astro bot.

Hello there fellow gamers;
This weekend I´m all about Metaphor ReFantazio on my Series X and Street Fighter 6 on my PS5. Been having a lot of fun online matches with some pretty good players in SF6.
Also, it has been awhile since I´ve been so enamored with a turn based rpg like Metaphor and I do think this will be my game for the next months.
Although, I do want to finish at least one playtrough of both Sillent Hill 2 and Alan Wake 2 as well.
So many good games to play. Gamers are eating good.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all

NHL '25 trial, South Park and I wanna play Undisputed but rather wait til it's on sale

I’ll be playing dead space 2 and pumpkin jack. I’ll be picking up Madison and maybe a few others for shocktober sale too

RoboCop: Rogue City. Shot a guy in the penis and got an achievement.

Finished Silent Hill 2 the other day, and impatiently waiting for both Batman: Arkham Shadow and Alan Wake 2: The Lake House DLC.

Ended up playing some of the Half Life 1: Raytraced mod last night, and another level of the Doom: Legacy of Rust EP. Probably will end up just chipping away at those until Tuesday.
