I’ll be trying out Starfield as I upgraded to the special edition or whatever!

    I was going to wait for Starfield, but then I caved in last night and bought the upgrade.

    Got 4 hours in before I forced myself to go to bed and can’t wait to jump back in!

      Haha same here! Though, I did technically wait. I was waiting on others to try it and see how it was. I’ve heard a lot of good things about it, so I figured I’d drop the $30 on GamePass to get it a few days early. They knew what they were doing in the US because it’s a 3 day weekend for most of us. Who wouldn’t want to take advantage of 3 days of not working to play this game?

      I have been hearing great things about it. And the fact that they were able to launch day 1 on both PS+ and Gamepass was probably a big win for them.

      Hope they earned a good amount from those deals.

      Stray is such a weird game, it’s extremely popular and underrated at the same time. People who like/hate it bc it’s a cat game, but it’s much more than that. The art style and story are both top notch, and the game runs great, looks fantastic even on potato machines. It got nominated as game of the year nominee, but even people who like it written it off as just a cute cat game.

    Finally finishing gears of War 5. Bloody good gears game, bit I had a big break in playing and can’t quite remember what the story was. Still enjoying it.

      I looked into playing those a while back but didn’t know if they’d be my thing. Are they kind of like Pillars of Eternity gameplay wise?

        Yes, but easier and, imo, more “dynamic”. I’m having a ton of fun in combat sections and usually they bore me to death. I mad a character with high strength who fight unarmed, and then installed a cyberwar-razor-hands thing and it’s SO good and fun to play with it.

        The only downside is that the game(s) are packed with content, but the campaign is very short which annoys me to no end

    Probably enjoying Quake II tonight. I’m excited for Starfield, but I’m okay waiting.
