I really enjoyed Exodus. Made me pause and enjoy, all that friction makes the game much more memorable than say Far Cry.

After having finished Witcher 3 main story for the first time (110 hours, including almost all side activities except Gwent), I thought of giving Cyberpunk 2077 a shot. Then CDPR told how they’re gonna remaster Witcher 3, so I’m going to wait for it to come out before I play the DLCs.
CP2077 threw me into a world, much like Witcher 3, where I don’t understand anything at all. There’s so much stimuli all around the world that I was really overwhelmed and hating the dystopian future. But after Act 2, game opened up a bit, and now I’m slowly taking it in and enjoying it.
It seems it will be off GamePass this month as well, so I’ll probably buy it as now I do like it a bit. I’m ignoring main quest as usual and only focusing on side quests right now. I collected all Tarot cards for example lol.
Apart from that I’m also playing Resonance plague tale legacy, it’s pretty cool. Combat is quite fun, and music is amazing.

Aww thanks.
Yeah I hear you. Idk why I didn’t mind it in Kingdom Come Deliverance, but did in Witcher 3. Somewhere I feel Witcher 3 doesn’t tell you everything exactly and something massive happens coz of your choice, while KCD being so grounded seemed very straightforward, and you could hope your skills would influence the chances of getting what you want.
I am looking forward to Fable, because it too feels like a KCD like experience where you get to be who you want to be, and almost always know what your dialogue choice will end up doing.

Got laid off this week. Sucks. Severance is good enough for few months, will just work my backlog I guess.
Finished Witcher 3 main story, will start DLCs after the remaster is out (I thought I was in the safe 11 years post release, guess not lol).
I am trying Helldivers 2, not into multiplayer but thought I could see if it is something I like.
I wanna get into Cyberpunk 2077 next, but I feel decision fatigue after Witcher 3 (my first CDPR game). I actually like linear games with not many choices, makes me anxious that I’m playing game wrong, just like I feel I’m living life wrong. Especially when games are 40+ hour long. Let’s see if I can get over it.

Playing Witcher 3 lately for the first time. Coming from already playing games like Kingdom Come Deliverance, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, and modern God of War games, it’s interesting to see how Witcher 3 retains its original flavour and yet its formula has been taken into various extremes by other games. I love the realism and interesting story lines of KCD, and the mindless addictive loop of AC Odyssey full of fantastical myths and moral choices, and the emotional depth of God of War. Overall I weirdly feel KCD took the best lessons and created something really unique.
I don’t know if it’s fair to compare these games like this, but yeah, I get these comparisons in my mind.
Speaking of Witcher 3, it took me three tries to actually get into it, the game is quite a lot when you start it, especially not having played first two. But once I did, it was really fun. I was torn at every moral choices, and a bit burnt out eventually. I don’t love difficult choices with consequences in games as in real life, but it’s good to confront that anyway. A lot of the quests are memorable for that reason.
Overall, enjoying it a lot. I’m sure people in 2015 must have their minds blown by this game back then.
