Thanks for making the thread 🙂
I'm currently playing Dark Souls for the first time and it is quite the experience so far! The atmosphere is great and the level design is truly superb. It's interesting because I generally do not like hard games but Dark Souls is really satisfying. Beating the Capra Demon felt amazing and probably one of my favorite gaming moments in quite some time.
A friend of mine got super into Dark Souls, have you tried Sekiro or Ghost Of Tsushima? Both very cool beat em games, but less just full stress 😀
All PC, but here is the rotating list:
Destiny 2 - My main stay, always doing weeklies and playing with the clan
The Ascent-Playing this on the Windows Store; fun, visually nice but buggy twin-stick shooter
Battlefield 1- Became f2p (for a short time) jumped in popularity, returned as a seasoned veteran to rake up those noob kills!
Streets of Rage 4- Playing the new DLC via couch coop with my wife and son, fun times
Back 4 Blood Beta- The current beta i am testing. Fun Left 4 Dead clone with its unique attributes, looking forward to its release
First time I met a pair of Cassowaries in Far Cry 3:I may be the only player to ever get killed by turkeys
Those are both great games. I loved GRW so much in fact that I decided to make a video walkthrough of it on Extreme with no HUD and no upgrades. The reason being is on Tier 1 with all upgrades it just felt too arcade and silly. Chase scenarios to intercept coms vehicles and such would go on for miles, and while it is indeed challenging, it's also not all that hard due to the upgrades, many of which are quite unrealistic. So if you end up getting the hang of GRW well, and want a more realistic feel, I highly recommend Extreme mode with no HUD/upgrades. At first I thought just traveling to objectives would be very tedious with no HUD or upgrades, which also means you can't parachute or even order helis. It turned out finding nearby helis to steal was one of the things that made it very fun. It also didn't take nearly as long as I expected. I captured every mission starting and ending at a safehouse, and still managed to average under 10 min a mission. I only fast traveled once just a short ways to a dock to finish one mission with a boat vs zig zagging for miles down a mountain on tons of switchbacks to get to the objective after getting intel via stopping a convoy. It still took about 3 months to complete though, simply because I did ALL the missions plus 3 DLC ones, for a total of 114 videos.Also started and waiting patiently for my return:
Ghost Recon Wildlands first playthru;
Sniper Elite 4 first playthru.
I'm only a few hours in on both, so no opinion yet except lovely worlds and I'm looking forward to getting back to them.
