A lot is happening today with the community migration today, so I will keep this brief:
I beat Tchia. It’s wonderful, but has it’s flaws, mainly combat. I think it deserved the scores it received, and I can’t say enough how much I loved it. If you even remotely are drawn to it, I would highly recommend giving it a play through.
I am about halfway through Uncharted: Lost Legacy and it is really bringing back those Uncharted 4 vibes I wanted it to. Really loving the relationship between Chloe and Nadine and I also find myself marveling at the graphical details.
What are you playing? Let us know below!
I started playing Alan Wake and so far it’s interesting and it looks pretty good. I’ve had my eye on Exoprimal. Might wait for a sale tho $60 seems a little steep for a multiplayer.
Also playing Alan Wake! Better than I remember
Jedi Survivor. It’s buggy and glitchy and not a world beater game but I can wield a lightsaber. A woman of simple pleasures.
I am still waiting on performance improvements before I pick this up. I loved FO!
I tried Fallen Order, but navigating was an absolute nightmare. Spent about two hours running around in circles trying to get back to the ship, then I gave up on the game and never went back to it.
Yeah, I think I used a guide at one point because I got lost. Totally understandable
Making my way through FF16. According to the PS5 dashboard completion percentage I’m at about 70% complete right now. So I might be able to finish over the weekend, but having a six-year-old at home might make that harder to accomplish.
Either way, I’m really enjoying it despite it being absolutely archaic in terms of its actual game design. It’s really carried by its presentation, soundtrack, and decent story. They’ve arguably stripped away too much of what typically defines a Final Fantasy game here, but I’m still having a great time by just choosing to appreciate what it does do well.
That’s great! Glad you’re having a good time.
The dashboard says I’m at about 55% and I don’t believe it haha. Feel like I’ve barely got into it!
Snowrunner, just like I’ve been doing for nearly two years now.
Is it that replayable?

How did you like survivor?

That’s great! I can’t wait to play it. How was your performance?

I think digital foundry said that overall performance was roughly comparable across consoles. Maybe I just have to get used to 30fps. I really would like an option added to remove RT so I can get somewhat stable 60fps

I just started playing Fallen Order because it was free with PS Plus but rage-deleted the game because I couldn’t find my way back to the Mantis on the second planet after multiple hours of searching. Is it worth it to stick through despite the level design?

Assassins Creed Valhalla!
I wanted to play that one as well, but saw Odyssey on sale so started with that yesterday. Will save Valhalla for later this year.
Two such huge AC games in one year? I don’t think I can do that. 😀
Haha, maybe I’m being overambitious! I’ll definitely will pick up Valhalla around the Black Friday sales period and at least start playing it this year 😁
Haha, sounds good, good luck!
I started that too…. But then I started with this. I’ll be going back to that though once I’ve finished this.
How are you enjoying the game? I have heard mixed things about it.
I’m enjoying it :-)
It’s HUGE. I’ve been playing for around 50 hours, and only just found a 3rd map. I’ve not bought any of the expansions yet, this main game is plenty for now. I’ll probably wait for the season pass to be on sale before I get that.
Games this size are a mixed blessing. You get your monies worth, that’s for sure, but you wonder how long the story line is and if you’ll ever get to see some sort of ending.
It’s a good game though… well worth it.
Yeah, I think that’s the main issue I have heard, game is too big. And for someone like me with limited time, I am starting to prefer tigher experiences more.
I am still going to give it a try someday. Not sure if I will finish the game or not, but at least want to start it.
Just downloaded Dysmantle, as I heard good things about it, looking forward to trying it out over the weekend.
Make a post and let us know how to goes!
It looks fun. I remember liking the trailer when it was announced.
Been playing this as well. Not the most impressive looking game but very fun and a big time sink with its core mechanics
Hi! I’m currently on my second playthrough of The Last of Us: Part 2. The first time around, the PS5 patch was released a week after I completed the game, so now I’m enjoying the 60FPS upgrade. I have a stack of games to get through and as a parent, my time is limited. I have Death Stranding, Skywalker Saga, Cyberpunk 2077 and probably a few more I’m forgetting. :-)
As a parent myself, I wont even post my backlog here. It’s soooo long
I don’t normally play games through twice but after the excellent HBO adaptation, I wanted to play the games again. So it was my third time on the original game using the PS4 remastered version for the second time and the second time with the PS5.
I never played both games one after the other like this, so now the storyline makes more sense and I’m enjoying it a lot more than the first time. I have such a bad memory.
A bit of Battlefield 1 the best online shooter I’ve had the pleasure to experience and South Park The Fractured But Whole a pretty fun RPG that feels just like you’re playing an episode from the show.
I played the first South Park, but not the second. I have to check it out. I fell out of watching the show when my daughter was born though
It’s good, hadn’t watched in a long time either, enjoyed it. I’m not a parent but it’s important to me a game respects my time. This one did
ok, cool. I’ll add it to my list! Thanks!
The Witcher 3 mostly. And a bit of Street Fighter. Maybe some Rocket League.
Just reinstalled witcher 3 recently. I never finished it. Did they ever add PC/PS5 cross progression?
I’m not sure tbh. I played the original Witcher on PC a long time ago and the save file was lost at some point. I just started TW3 with the default choices.
I got totally swept up in the hype for the original back in the Xbox360 days. I’ve started playing this new remaster and it feels a bit janky to me. It’s like they’ve upped the resolution and textures and done nothing else.
ff16
How’s it treating you?
I’m really enjoying it, I think I’m around half way through. The combat is really fun, I just wish the performance was a little better.
Just got a console thru a nice sale recently!! I’m new to PS gaming (haven’t played much gen games too aside from the occasional PC ports), so have been checking out PS Plus games.
I’m playing FF7R remake these days, and while I really enjoyed the original, this one I have mixed feelings for. It’s got nice elements here and there, but the amount of filler is really getting to me. Plus all the times you have to walk slower.
Still, I am enjoying myself, just feels less satisfying knowing how the original went. Curious to see how Intergrade will play (might skip if it’s more of the same).
Well, not all games are meant for everyone, if you don’t like it that’s fine, there’s a lot more to play.
If you want some recommendation, you can ask here, just share what you have played and what kind of games you are looking for, I am sure the community will be glad to help.
Beat Saber. It’s a fun workout. Trying to play almost every track I have, both base and DLC.
That’s a lot of songs! You’ll have to play a Jedi game next I bet
I actually do have Fallen Order, still gotta complete that. My gaming sessions come in waves lol. I recently finished the main story of Watch Dogs Legion on PC so I should go and complete Fallen Order’s.
I’m about 15 hours into octopath traveler 2. its been a long time since i’ve played a JRPG like this one. the story and design are great so far. Getting a little bored with the grindiness of dungeons but that’s the nature of things in this type of game. The amount of choices you can make as any character with their battles at any time is mind boggling, which makes boss fights really strategic but a regular fight against grunts can be tedious.
Just got Elden Ring so probably that. Maybe a little bit of Resident Evil 8.
