The non-ME3 games recently enjoyed by ME3MPrs

Moar Cyberpunk. Mostly because lack of something fresh that scratches the right itch.

It is the weapons. They have weight and operate differently enough - if any game took the concept of weapon modding made by ME3 and improved upon it, it is Cyberpunk.

Different sniper rifles are great fun in different ways. Weapon charge mechanic is familiar to us, works similarly. Enemy AI is not better, but this allows for fun double/triple headshots with decent aim and a good gun. Pistols I have found fun in as well. Moreso when I took my own advice from this forum and got a little hippy with my pistol shooting. Sorry pardner, once I got loose from the hip heads splooshed in CQ lotsa lotsa. Earlier in the game I focused on SMG and laughed my face off shredding at medium range. Shotguns, oddly, I have used least. If the DLC is good, that will be another build later.

No competition in this game, and even at the hardest difficulty once you have one good gun you can trivialize most encounters if you choose a shooty build. But the guns feel good to me, so that's all.

I have 150 hours into Elden Ring and I think there's only a few remaining major bosses remaining (Placidusax, Maliketh, Godfey, Malenia, Radagon are the only ones I can think of), a cavern boss or two, and I think only one area left to explore and that's the Capital of Ash once I beat Maliketh. I do need to fully explore the Brace of the Haligtree and I will say these last areas are pretty damn hard once you hit the Consecrated Snowfield even at a decently high level. I have noticed that exploring the areas with medium load and good armor/heavier weapon for the mobs and switching to light loads and more dex focused weapons for the bosses has given me the best results for the late game, especially with the updated dodge roll in 1.06. Mohg was hard as hell for me and I think took me something like 3 hours to beat, my strategy of out DPS his healing while he's doing his Nihil thing probably wasn't the best, but it's what worked in the end. I will say Malenia has absolutely kicked my ass so far and I haven't got past her first phase yet, fucking hard boss. Yes, I know you're the Blade of Miquella and I'm a scrub I get it. Poor dodging for Placidusax has been my downfall when he starts his warping attacks, which I haven't fully learned because I'm a dolt and need to git gud. The boss arena is dope as all get out, I just wish I didn't have to run back to it every time. The Placidusax fight, to me, has a lot of similarities to the Midir fight from DS3.

I'd say it was well worth the $60 even for one playthrough trying to fully explore and find everything I'm at 150 hours and still not finished though I am in the endgame. The legacy dungeons are just fantastic imo, From did an excellent job with them. I liked the caves/graves/catacombs being smaller puzzles or mazes with a boss at the end of them. They're similar, but different enough in the puzzle aspect to make them feel unique. Some people have a problem with the reuse of certain bosses, but I personally didn't have a problem with that. Maybe I explored in a chaotic enough order that I don't remember fighting the same boss twice in a row. The biggest culprits are the Erdtree Avitars and possibly the Tree Sentinels. I feel like they could've kept mimics in some form to keep it in line with the lore and still used the trap chests, which I feel were underused and could've added a couple (maybe five more). I didn't really worry about them once I got around mid-game. That said, the ones that were used can be very punishing if found at a low enough level (could be more interesting if there was no warp from the beginning).

Alfonsedode Are you still playing New Vegas?

Agreed about the arena and agreed about not being as good as Midir. IMO Midir was the best fight in DS3 with Friede being 1B, there's just some things about the Placidusax fight that remind me of the Midir fight.


I get my ass kicked in the 2nd phase. In the few attempts I have done I've gotten to the 2nd phase all but twice.


I'm sure I'll be doing this at some point

Nope, i kinda got bored when reaching new vegas.
Gameplay is quite fun, world too. Main story is quite diluted and assignments are not that good imo, lot of go pick this, bring it back or kill all the thing.( Vault 11 was not like that though. But vaulters complying is a bit too much)
I guess I LL give it a go again to enter new vegas. I started the scientific dome teleporting dlc, seems it could be fun but the start is very a long talking with the mad scientists and I quit at the end of it two times now.

Ashamed to admit that I've spent the last few years almost exclusively playing the video game Destiny 2. It's shit I enjoy it. Maybe if Andromeda had actually been good it wouldn't have come to this, but such is life. I still think about Turians, even while playing Destiny 2.

why ashamed? Not a very productive way of spending time or no turians?
I tried to install that game twice and it refuses to launch so I escaped that addiction

Heretic! I played Destiny 2 for about 3-4 months a few years back. The thought of effectively resetting my character and loot on a regular basis and sunsetting DLC content that I bought was a massive no no for me. Havent played since. I have come really close to trying out Andromeda a few times now..Then I see stuff like this and think lol no

No turians

They aren't sunsetting anymore and they've recently indicated they will no longer sunset expansion pack content. Not that this is an endorsement of getting back into the game itself, Destiny 2's worthwhile content is still mostly trapped behind repetitive grinding and a terrible levelling system that are objectively unworthy of most people's time.  I tolerate it, but perhaps only because I enjoy the core gameplay.

theese last months i have been playing a lot of warhammer 40 000 gladius and warhammer 40 000 dawn of war (in both game i almost exclusively played as either tau or imperial guard/astra-militarum)

did also played a bit of sprocket and brigador

i mostly focused on playing single player (and so, against/with AIs) because tryed to forget the huge amount of friends i lost contact with in august (long story short i lost my original discord account and had to make an alt, but could only refind a small fraction of my previous friends)


anyway, if people like RTS, i truly recommend dawn of war (and it's extensions) great campaigns, good music despite game being so old, graphics didn't aged too badly, and cool gameplay

So, you're into it pretty strong now. This is good information, I need to return to the game and give it a more fair shake.

Learning UE5 is fun so far. Its a lot to take in and very in depth but I have an achievable end goal in mind. 
Made a few meshes for character customization and am learning how to implement the level of player customization I want.
