YOOOOO THEY ADDED THE CANDY CANTLERS IN TODAY IN TEAM FORTRESS 2!

FINALLY!

Hades is super fun. I beat the final boss last night(shocking twist, it's Hades), and appropriately for a roguelite, that's just the end of phase one of actually finishing the game.

I've sunk at least 60 hours in Hades so far, the tiniest complaint I've had so far is that I got too good at beating the game, I feel like I'm missing most of the content in the House simply because I haven't lost a run since originally beating Hades. But other than that Hades is my game of 2020, unless Cyberpunk usurpes its throne: fantastic character design, gorgeous artwork, amazing voice acting, simple yet addicting combat, and to top it all off a rocking ost. And also I still haven't romanced Meg, which is a travesty.

I can definitely see myself grinding out almost everything in the game.

I already bought Cyberpunk 2077 so I can preload it on the 7th. I will be staying away from social media and such though to avoid spoilers. I've waited too fucking long for the story to be ruined by some sad cunts with nothing better to do than ruin the fun of others.

Have started playing The Wind and the Wilting Blossom. It is a tactical fantasy game set in Japan where you fight yokai.

Oh, me and Microsoft gonna fight again. Despite them taking the money off my card a few days ago to renew game pass, I wake up today and they say it expired. Despite the money withdrawl being right there on my card history.

Fuck, these people are agitating.

Phoenix Point finally showed up on steam the other day and it was on sale so i bought and am giving it a go. Its alright so far, i quite like the free aim mechanic, thats a lot of fun. And i like the art and designs for a lot of the enemies.

But its nothing spectacular either.

The weirdest thing happen while I was playing Skyrim a few days ago. I had just finished killing the dragon and after talking to the Jarl of Whiterun, Lydia walks up to me and calls me "troll bait."

I have no idea if my mods caused this or if this was just a unknown voice line that appears through bugs.

Apparently the original VA for Woods in Black Ops 1 and 2 has his own YouTube channel. That's pretty neat that he's doing well.

So the reviews for Cyber Punk 77 are coming out. Doing well for itself getting lots of 9's and 10's (shocking) but is apparently buggy as fuck (also shocking)

That's good to hear that the game is getting good reviews, the Devs worked very hard on the game (especially during the crunch) so hopefully the Devs can relax knowing they did good.

Tempted to wait for a month before playing. I tend to do that anyway with a lot of games, as by that point the most egregious of the bugs will have been squished via patches.

Same. Still debating getting it but if I do end up getting the game I’m planning to wait till Christmas

I plan on picking it up at launch though ive managed to avoid most of the hype so my expectations amount to "I think it will be decent but not amazing".

So ill be the thread guinea pig and report back on whether or not it really is the "Keanu chungus wholesome youre breaktaking 100" experience that the internet thinks it will be. Or if its just a relatively good game, or maybe even an okay one.

[The first Galactic Republic]

I don’t know. It seems like every major release these days has that same story of high reviews while being buggy af.

[The Batavia]

I'll judge the game myself, thank you very much

Actually, i've started pre-loading it as I'm typing this.

sorry if that sounded a bit passive aggressive. I do intend to go into the game with a face value look. It's just that I've waited long enough and I don't want outside influence on my initial opinion of the game.
