I’ve only hear bits and pieces about “The anti-rpg” game, moon. I really want to try it.

I get paid on Wednesday. Will likely get it then

I watched a few videos on Moon. Apparently it was made by former Square employees. The whole game sounds really intriguing and I love the art style. I think I’ll snag it

Ok, forget the ray tracing, 1440p at 120hz should be enough.

How many of you downloaded World of Tanks Blitz? Its free altho a bit heavy (2.6 Gb) but is fun and super simple. Some people said is the good ol pay to win mobile bs but so far most tanks seem viable. Ive played like 1 solid hour and it was fun tbh. 7v7 combat, you gain points that you use to upgrade your tanks. I went with UK and German tank tree. Lmk if you fools give this a try. Premium (aka paid) tanks arent that relevant until end game Ive heard

I finished Vampyr last night. The last section of it is in this castle one of the vampires is hiding in and it became a tinge of Dark Souls for a second, and you find out some things about the vampire lineage that were pretty surprising.

Amazing game though, and I’ll probably start my next run of it soon, I’m hoping there are multiple endings.

nice… I’ve still only finished Vampyr 1 time… I started a 2nd run on the xb1 version but wasn’t that far in before getting sidetracked by another few games…heh, likely Diablo 3 for the trillionth time. That first time through I was a mix of good and bad; basically just a self-serving, occasional asshole but mostly good version of Dr. Reid.

Turning— I chose not to turn the rich dude…I didn’t think he truly deserved the gift of immortality at the time.
more detailed spoiler though…

I did choose to turn McCallum though… I was thinking it would be an interesting bit of fate to turn my enemy into something he hates so much. .. heh, it reminds me of what Niklaus did to his mother in a season of The Originals.—his last words to her as she was in transition to a vampiric state again (*after drinking vamp blood and dying, your transition is not complete until you choose to drink human blood…if you don’t, you die a 2nd time and that’s that.) “So…you could either be the thing you hate most…or you could be dead. Your choice.” then he walked off (as a slow, eerie rendition of Silver Bells plays)…shit was SO cool…another classic villainous moment on that show.
Check that scene here.

Yeah I’m definitely going for the chaotic Dr.Reid in the next run, there are so many items and such you’re probably missing out on by not embracing people in addition to the EXP. I’ll probably trick out my vampire powers a little more in this next run too since I’ll have more experience to devote to that.

I didn’t turn Aloysius Dawson either, I went in planning to but after talking to him I was like “Nah, fuck you, you’re better off dead” lol! I love that about this game. I’m definitely looking forward to embracing McCallum though, that was one of the toughest decisions to make because part of me wanted to serve him like that for all the Priwen assholes I had to deal with :laughing:

Maybe closer to holiday but I doubt it.

Hope so. I want to play that shit bad.

I’m being extremely bias when I say this but it’s one of my favorite games of all time.

Yeah Nintendo rarely drops the prices on their own games. And when they do it is barely worth the wait.

So has anyone played Evergate?

After I finish Ghost of Tsushima I think I may snag it. I don’t have much gaming time now and play GOT here and there but trying to milk it before I finish it.

Honestly I wouldnt be surprised if they went with the same first party game discounts they went with last year which were MK8D, BotW, Kirby Star Allies, DKC Tropical Freeze.

man, I was briefly tempted to get Castle Crashers… but I burned out on that game many years ago. Heh, I remember how ridiculous the red knight was… those were good times there.

I took a shot at getting the “Sprinter” conquest yesterday in Diablo 3 (*running the entire campaign in < 1 hour)…and I was in no way even close to target time…I think it was already a bit over 30 minutes by the time I was in Act 2. I’m thinking it may be easier for a Vyrs-Archon build Wizard with Aether Walker power.

…I played a bit more Carrion yesterday … it’s still a bit frustrating to not really know where I’m going…and it’s easy to forget where I’ve already been.
