Now Playing (Video Games)

I'm currently stuck in several games. Castlevania Portrait of Ruin, Castlevania Aria of Sorrow, Castlevania Circle of the Moon, Castlevania Order of Ecclesia.... that's it for the Castlevania games lol, also stuck in Alan Wake II, Silksong and Wolfenstein II and Tunic.

Obviously I did the rational thing and just installed other games in my backlog instead of getting gud. I started with Robocop: Rogue City and I am LOVING this thing. It is far from original. It gives off Fallout/Metro/Arkham/Alien: Isolation vibes. I enjoy the linearity of it, the basic mission structure and straightfoward mechnics. I was getting overwhelmed with having to be quick, excessive back tracking, confusing fights, etc. Robocop is a great power fantasy where you gun down criminals, give out tickets and do investigative work. I've been playing it three days straight. That hasn't happened for at least a year, most games I've been playing lately I put down after an hour or less. Either because I reached a checkpoint or because I'm tired of it. With this one I just want to keep going the same way I did with The Witcher III, Fallout 3 and New Vegas. There's been others, but those are the ones that come to mind off the top of my head.
 
Still chipping away at Elden Ring, but man, some of these bosses are absolutely kicking my teeth in lately. I had to take a little break from the frustration, so I’ve been diving back into Hades for some quicker runs. It’s the perfect game to just pick up and play for twenty minutes while listening to some Maiden.
 
Finished Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus. It's supposed to be "alternate history," let me tell you, sure a as hell didn't feel like it. Had I played it upon release I would've laughed a lot more during game play and especially at Wyatt's speech at the end. Now I just said, "yuup."

Finished Robocop: Rogue City. What a fun romp through another supposed futuristic dystopia that just made me go, "yuuup."

Finished Killer Frequency. Fun short game, will definitely play again to try and save everyone. Only two people got killed which isn't bad for a first play through.

Currently playing the Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. I'm really liking it and honestly don't see where all the hate is coming from. Sure it's basically any game from the last decade in an Indy skin, but it's still a lot of fun.

In an effort to continue making headway on my backlog I'll tackle Titanfall 2 next along with System Shock remake. I'm getting System Shock 2 tomorrow cuz my friends want to play it on New Years. So I'll play those two soon. After that not quite sure. Go back to the ones I'm stuck on I guess. Top of that list is Alan Wake II and Silksong.
