Now Playing (Video Games)

I do have one reason not to. I HATE N64/PS1 era graphics. Absolutely can't stand them. I find them jarring and off putting. They are the sole reason I quit console gaming until the xbox 360 and only played the EA NHL games and OG Blizzard on PC. Even today, when games do "retro graphics" I love 8-bit and 16-bit homages and presentation, but stay away with the heavily polygonal N64/PS1 graphics. A great example is Signalis. Many people sing its praises, but I couldn't do it. I played the first mission and called it quits.

The 8bits and 16 bits or even spectrum or amstrad have aged better than the first 3d games.
 
I've just finished black flag resynced. It was amazing. I don't like Assasins Creed franchise - first games didn't clicked with me at all but black flag is cool - I like to sail, listen to songs and do nothing after finishing campaign :-D After that experiance I thought 'well, maybe new games are great!' so I've tried Valhalla.

It sucked life out of me.

So now I'm playing Quake with new chapter (NICE!). It's funny that I always, always try to play in some super complicated things like Baldurs Gate 3, Hearts of Iron 4 etc. but i've got most of the fun from boomer shooters. And I work in strategy related role in my job while my kid has ADHD, memory of a gold fish and is having a blast with paradox games.

Black Flag is such a great game even AC fans that say it isn't an AC game, but just a pirate sim with AC skin still like it. I've played the OG 3 times. I was curious about Resynced, but reviews are mixed. Most of the complates are the visuals, something about being to bright and, oddly, too detailed. I don't know if they changed or added missions, but I'm still on the fence. Not to mention, I till have the original sooo.... no real need to get it.

As for the others. There's a post somewhere on here where the general consensus is:
Ezio Trilogy (II, Brotherhood, Revelation)
Black Flag
Origins
Odyssey

Valhalla is indeed one of the biggest disappointments and missed opportunities.

Whenever I got to a new town I would talk to EVERYONE and pick up as many side quests as possible. When traveling I would check out caves, pits, grottos etc, that I could explore and find treasure chests. If I was underleveled to continue, I would look at my list of side quests and focus on those. It doesn't feel like grinding even though it is. It's purposeful grinding though.

That would happen to me too lol. I would focus on my party leader's quest, picking up the other party members if I happen to go to their town due to my PL's quest or a side quest. In OT 1 it was Haanit, in OT 2 it was Throne
