General Videogame Thread

I'm twenty hours into Odyssey. It's good, and if I'd played it before origins I'd be blown away, but as it is I prefer origins.

Otherwise its a carbon copy, take out the pyramids and Egyptian mythology, replace with greek but more emphasis on sea battles, but that's about it.

I'm yet to fight any mythical creatures yet though, so maybe that will change it.

Try 302 hours and still no where near finished.
 
Playing Elder Scrolls online, it’s a hell of a lot better than I thought it would be, replaces Warcraft perfectly
 
Elite Dangerous is fantastic. Not played for a while as my Elite controller developed stick drift. Preordered the new Elite 2 controller and am getting back into the game in anticipation of its arrival on Nov 4th. Bloody expensive for a controller at £160 but makes the game 10 times better.
Is it worth getting on a PS4? The game I mean.
 
Fifa 20.

Bought a Ps4 just for the game, got the demo, got the 10 hour trial thing in which i got untradeable Bale. Pre-ordered the game on E bay over a month ago, still to yet get it, i've been had off, so have other people on there as well from the same seller. Let E-bay/the seller know about it,E-bay says the're gonna step in October 6th if if not heard anything back. I'm not hopeful at all.

Heard the career mode take one hell of a bashing, who's playing it, what you think?
 
Yeah, the PS4 one isn't great. Console players are getting short changed on this; I'd happily fork out for a more robust HOTAS.


Well I took a bit of a hiatus after joining the Distant Worlds 2 expedition, got married halfway through and fell behind the fleet as was too busy to play. Ship was stuck other side of Sag A. and I couldn't be arsed to move it back to the bubble. Finally did it last week and I'm excited about these fleet carriers (less so about the inevitable grind that will be needed to get one). I've noticed some improvements to exploration though, particularly around how points of interest are easier to find. Played for a couple of hours last night visiting crash sites and remembered just how much I love this game, despite its flaws.

I play this from time to time on Xbox. It’s a great game.

Bit gutted they’ve fucked the career mode so badly. Only reason I really got it.

Having to play FUT which is like crack. Adamant I’m not spending £ on it this year.

I’m too old for this shit - I was hesitant to get it this year in the first place.
 
I’m playing the new PES game.

The gameplay is more realistic but I found PES 2019 more fun to play.

It’s become too difficult to dribble and outpace opponents.

No Juventus in it either!

I am enjoying playing it more than FIFA and finding that playing through balls (especially coming in off the wings is fairly accurate.
 
Not bothering with FIFA, PES or even Football Manager this year. Lazy incarnations which barely improve on the last one, and even hold stuff back for the next one it feels like.

Instead I'll let myself spend forty quid, the equivalent of one game, on some smaller games in the sales leading up to Christmas. First one is final season of telltale's walking dead, £12.85.
 
I feel I'm the only one, but I'm nonplussed about Death Standing nor Cyberpunk
I'm interested to hear more about death strending's gameplay but I may struggle with cyberpunk unfortunately. Me and first person don't get on well, in fact the only first person games I've played in the last decade were Skyrim and Dead Island, plus about five minutes of Condemned 2 at a mates which just knocked me sick.

Wish developers would just add a 3rd person view option.where possible.

I'm with you on Death Stranding, way too overhyped, but Cyberpunk is still holding my interest. Not as much as it once did...
