Is it just me who thinks Breath of the wild is really hard? Often get slapped by any half decent boss.

It's very hard. The lynel you had to fight took me about 20 attempts and basically rinsing loads of cooked meals. The two bosses i've fought in the dungeons took me a couple of attempts each, and rinsing cooked meals.

The hinox and Stone Talus' ive gotten to grips now with, but its definitely a challenging game.

I enjoyed it personally. Thought the story was really really good. I admit the actions got a little repetitive but I got so invested in the lore of the world that i didn't mind.
 
Prey is worth anyone's money. Bioshock meets Half-life meets.... The Stanley Parable? First hour is.... uhhh. Wow. The more you mess around in that first area, the crazier it gets. Incredibly well crafted, the way it teases you.

PS I'm retrospectively awarding Dishonored 2 game of the year 2016.

That sounds incredible. Half Life is my favourite game of all time; Bioshock is, pound for pound, probably the best game of the last generation; and The Stanley Parable is excellent, too.

I gather that the new Prey bears no resemblance to it, but I also really enjoyed the original Prey back on the 360. Definitely one for those "great games that hardly anyone played" lists.

Right. I am now officially addicted to Cities Skylines. A wonderful relaxing game which makes you think. Got it on Xbox One and thinking of upgrading my laptop so I can play it via steam and get mod support. My city is called Madchester and my districts are named after songs. I have Pacific 202 heights. Blue Monday valley and Waterfall Place!

The mod support makes the game for me.

What do you do on Breath Of The Wild after the divine beasts? I'm loving it so far, but I'm worried about doing it too quickly.

Defeat the Calamity Gannon in Hyrule Castle. Don't just go straight for the Devine Beasts. Allow yourself to wonder/get all the armor sets/hidden weapons/hidden armor sets/Shrines etc.
