Finally picked up Sekiro... as someone who is a big fan of the previous 5 Soulsborne games this game is incredible, the combat is so involved now and the openworld design is great as ever.
How's the difficulty? I have a friend that bought it and stopped playing saying it was too hard (he's done all the DS games so he's familiar with the gameplay). I think the only reason I was able to finish DS3 was because I could summon help on the bosses. You can't do that in Sekiro can you? |

I see Elex is on the cheap, what the audience take on it?
Can't fully rebind keys for some reason. I refunded it until they fix that (most keys can be rebound, but not some important keys, like 'E'). I don't anticipate it'll ever be fixed.
*Edit: might be fixable in a config file now. I may give it another go when the Christmas sale starts. |

Other then that it looks great for a game of it's age and the shooting is so much easier (for me) with a Mouse and Keyboard.
Good to hear. I take it that means you can rebind keys without any issue? I'm a stickler for that. |

| Interested in the reviews on this, but I fear it's going to be positive even if the port is shit due to nostalgia. I've never played Halo, so it'd be good to finally see what all the hype is about. |

My company has about 50 employees and over 3000 lines. Left overs from when we were much larger. A lot of those lines are spoofed for robocalls. Then people (used to) call us back and yell at us for calling. Which we didn't do. Nor can we stop. Really sucks. And it's hard to explain that it has nothing to do with us.
Our numbers used to all point to our main line. We stopped that, so now they just go to busy if they're not in use. |

Pretty game. Very pretty. The controls seem a bit wonky, though. Not so much bad, as glitchy. After cutscenes, the camera movement seems to go in to super slow motion. Either alt-tab out and back in fixes, or sometimes just shaking the mouse a bunch will wake it up. Not sure what it's doing. There also doesn't seem to be any mouse sensitivity options (not that I've found anyway).
Overall though it looks like it'll be fun. I've only got a couple hours in. The main character isn't as annoying as I thought he'd be (so far). Very Tomb Raider-ish to me, but with more combat. |

I enjoyed #1 well enough to get a good number of hours in it. Couldn't get in to #2, though. I've tried on three different occasions to play it, but could never last more than an hour or two. Just didn't care for the story or setting.
Looking forward to BG3 though. |

Really enjoyed this game....but I got to a point later in the game where the mobs felt like bullet sponges.
I only had this happen if I didn't keep my weapon upgraded. At max level, the mobs died in just a few hits. Bosses were the only sponges. Some mobs could be killed before they even countered. I was doing a twinblade build (not sure if that's the name). Some mobs were harder than others due to armor/shields, but still easy to kill once their shield fell. |

Stop using Internet Explorer immediately; also, why are you still using Internet Explorer?
Because the god damn accounting team has a "Save to Acrobat" widget directly on the browser toolbar and "Print to PDF" is too hard due to the extra click.
Me: IE11 is going end of life. You have to switch.
Them: What are you doing about the button?
Me: Not a damn thing. Use Print to PDF.
Them: Then we can't switch.
ARRGHGHHH... *triggered*

| I got to the final boss and stopped. Not sure he's worth the effort. Definitely had a fun time playing. I may return for this dungeon. I had to grind in a few places to find enough materials to upgrade weapons, and a few extra dungeons would definitely have helped with that. |

Very much enjoying this game, highly recommend it
Ditto. Sucked me in fast (I'm on PC). I'm stuck on the last boss, though. And since Greedfall came out, I may not get back to finish this. |

Really pretty game. I only played a couple hours or so last night. Most of the complains have been over the facial animations. They are indeed bad. Like Skeletor bad. I feel like the NPCs are going to bite me through the screen. I think my biggest issue at the moment is the camera feels weird. Not bad, but sort of floaty. A couple other weird things, like my NPC companions popping in to view. Or the vendor that started explaining a quest to me that seemed part-way through leaving me wondering wtf he was talking about. Now that I think about it, there have been a few bugs.
Still, I think it'll shape up. Hopefully. |

They make it sound doom and gloom, which for a lot of people I'm sure it was. But the examples they give aren't very good. Take this one: $325,239 for 191.118 bitcoins. That puts the price at $1701 per coin. Bitcoin is trading at $10,329 today. That puts him at $17,577,588. Reckless? Sure. But that's a hell of a return. Or the other one, taking out $250k loan for Bitcoin at "dropped below $10,000". He's still in the positive. Not much, but better than nothing considering it dropped so far.
I spent a fair amount on coins during the craze. I took a loss on them, but it was fun watching it go up. And the amount I spent wasn't crazy. It's going to moon any day now. I can feel it.

WoW level 60 |

It turns out World of Warcraft wasn't quite as hard as we remember it being.
I don't remember it being hard. I remember it being a horrible grind. Which it is. Collect 10 of these items. They drop about 5% of the time, and the mob hangs out in groups of 4. There is the one solo guy that walks around though. Good luck. The main thing Classic has going for it are the players/community. I haven't seen so many players in a very long time, since they get spread out and layered away in the latest versions. It's a nice change. Not sure if I'll hit 60 any time soon, though. At 2+ hours per level, my interest is fading. |

One thing I really liked about this game was you could build a house in the open world, not some boring instanced area,
Except all the locations were taken when I played. That was shortly after release, though. I recall camping houses with a timer of some sort of when it might open, hoping the owner had left and not paid the bill. If that's the alternative, I'd rather have an instanced house.
I doubt I'll return to ArcheAge unelss it really takes off. Can't really trust that it won't become p2w again once people are invested in the game. |

No quest markers, slower-pace, better ambiance than the newer stuff, the world is unified (layered I suppose but more unified than being spread out amongst 7 expansions). Sure, it's a time-sink but this 15 year older version is also better than most games being developed these days in my opinion 
I'm finding everyone to be really pleasant to be around as well. Buffs being handed out. Food/water from mages. Groups being formed for quests. Maybe that's just because there are so many people in the area, but I don't recall anything like that on the recent expansions. I look forward to keeping the communities in tact, even if I am mostly a solo player. Unless I quit. |
