The non-ME3 games recently enjoyed by ME3MPrs

FYI
Fallout 3 GOTY will be available from Epic Games store starting next Thursday (20th) for one week.

Since I've seen the Fallout series listed here many times

you re gonna use this knowledge to do some heavy modding in existing games you like? or create a whole game from scratch? 

A little while ago I played through HORIZON ZERO DAWN on PC. Initially I just wanted to see how good/bad it runs on my current system. Turned out it actually runs pretty well so I got stuck playing the game. I still have to do the final mission since I stopped before that, did the DLC and basically collected every item on the map, lit every campfire, etc. I will go back to finishing it soon I guess and then probably start a new game+ on ultra hard for the achievement. It's such a nice game. I usually don't particularly like open world games but in this case I really enjoy just wandering through the beautiful landscape, listening to the amazing soundtrack and fighting machines. Even fetching all those collectible was something I enjoyed because I never get bored walking around in this game. I really hope we get the 2nd game on PC as well.

A few weeks ago I got also back to playing REMNANT: FROM THE ASHES with a close friend. We picked up every item we didn't have yet, then played through hardcore mode to get a few items that can only be obtained there and then played survival mode to do the same thing and get the last remaining items we were missing as well as the achievements for 5 and 10 boss kills in a row. We finally got everything and then installed HELL MOD which is a lot of fun to play because of the rebalancing of some old items and the addition of new ones. I have a few armor pieces left to upgrade and then everything is at max level. We recently did a run on Apocalypse difficulty and next up we want to play the campaigns on the newly added Hell difficulty.

I lost my overwatch virginity recently. I have not played the OW1 but I've played OW2 for a few days. And I kinda like it but also kinda hate it at the same time. It's such a good feeling to win but then I sometimes go on long losing streaks that makes me wanna uninstall the game, but then I remember the good times I was decently cracked in that one game, and it makes me wanna keep playing

I play mainly Moira, getting just the perfect orb angles are so satisfying, because I remember getting a damage orb to rebound off a wall and into a hallway that a chased a Cassidy with a Dva going after him it was funny, and ulting a doomfist as it dies in midair trying to retreat.

I also kinda like Mercy I just had a game where I res'd the reinhardt on my team just a few feet behind the enemy team chasing our bastion I think it was, and I'm pretty sure surprised the enemy Sigma, didn't expect it and the enemy team backs off again with our tank pushing them back into spawn lmao.

I got filtered by the complexity of EU4. I just don't expect myself to be eager to spend the time required to learn that game, not during my entry into adulthood at least. EU2 doesn't give as many possibilities as EU4 but it's much more simple and I know it somewhat from playing it in primary school.

I gave up on playing as China, there's only rebellions and wars with Manchuria in that scenario. Just finished dealing with a rebellion event I thought to be massive, nothing I've ever seen in Europe, only to get a four times bigger one after a year. It just doesn't feel fun, I'll try Russia instead.

The Callisto Protocol is my personal disappointment of the year unfortunately. And not because of the horrible stutters that plagued the launch on PC.

I'm hyped af though since Remnant 2 was recently announced and Returnal is coming to PC soon.

Trying Forbidden West NG+ on the hardest difficulty. Is actually a bit of a joke, at least early game with all the maxed end game gear left over from befoee

But regardless I really like the gameplay loop of dismantling dino-toasters piece by piece or hacking them to do my bidding.

Hopefully the Hephasteus AI nevers figures out the optimal anti-organic strategy of creating scumbag Geth Primes. I would literally never play the game again.

I know git gud, etc. It's that damn Elden Stars that gets me or my own stupidity. I didn't get the game til April/May so not a year yet, but I am at almost 200 hours on that first playthrough and 50 on the second.

I can't wait to play that one on PC in the future. I still have a few things to do in Zero Dawn and have to do NG+ on the highest setting as well for the trophy but I took a break from that and will get back to it sometime in the future. 

I'm looking forward to the PC release of RETURNAL but won't be getting it right away. I need a better PC first I think and I'm not sure when to get it since what I have right now is still alright for most of the (older) stuff I play. I'm mostly playing REMNANT anyways these days and just last night there was a new update for the Hell-Mod, again adding some new weapons. And with what little time I have this year I'll probably keep playing the game until REMNANT 2 comes around.

Finished my first run around 140 level afair.So,was a bit undeleveled,because most of the ppl finish it at 150 or 160.It's doesn't make big difference anyways.I used the most heavy armors and stuff. Was so long ago,so can't remeber my build.So many balance changes happened since then.I used two great swords and it melted the beast very,very fast. I had troubles only vs Radagon back then.I want to do 1 hit run now.Did almost everything,except no hit.It requires too much dedication and with the life and the other games it's hard.

They had already great game ,so what could possibly go wrong?Calisto Protocol wasn't that bad actually,but nothing like Dead Space.

In Chapter 4 of The Witcher, part of my "Grand Witcher Experience"*. I'm there mostly for the story, so set it to easy combat. I'm enjoying it, and appreciate all the connections to the novels. But it suffers from the same (in my mind) shortcomings of all open world games: too many fetch quests that result in a "what am I supposed to be doing again?" and "uh, who is this character/how did I last encounter them?". And far, far, far too much random mob combat (which makes me glad I chose easy mode). Guess that's why I prefer BW's old Kotor/ME approach. Keep the story tight and the plot AND action flowing, contextual, and meaningful.

Oh, and the juvenile sexual content just make me shake my head and chuckle.

* Had already viewed the 2 Netflix seasons and read the 2 short story collections. Over Xmas break read the 6 novels and watched Blood Origins and Nightmare of the Wolf.
