[Nebuchadnezzar]

I'm playing Path of Exile and Hogwarts Legacy (both PS4).

Path of Exile is pretty much a Diablo clone but with a lot more focus on build crafting - I have never seen a bigger skill tree in a game

Currently playing the witcher 3 next gen on pc and omfg is that an amazing game. Its the type of game that wont be made again in hurry because its too good for us peasants to have haha

Grim Dawn is in the same vein, smashing game full of crafting quests and battles.

Might jump back on mate, I’ll see if I can join. I went sorcerer.

Made the mistake of going rogue. Fun builds, but endgame is ehh...

Should have gone sorcerer.

Just watched Starfield Direct.

Looks very very very good. Cant wait.

It does look amazing. The only things I’m unsure of are that we can’t fly our spaceship on the planets themselves. Like to land on a planet you just choose a landing spot within a menu screen and then it lands via a cutscene/loading screen. Don’t know if I like that tbh. It seems like the ONLY way to get around the planets themselves without walking is to use the jet pack. No flying your ship, no land vehicles as far as we know etc.

Also, 1000+ planets but only 4 big cities? That to me suggests that the overwhelming majority of the planets are just there for resources, without quests or too much to see etc. Could be wrong on this one but it did make me wonder whether having over 1000 planets is even a good thing.

The Star Wars game look pretty good

I’ve been playing Jedi Survivor, it’s pretty good tbh. Much more expansive than the first game both in scope and skill tree(s)

It's impossible to have that many unique cities without taking up too much space and blowing several times their budget on a collosal development team to create all the hand crafted assets.

So I wouldn't get too peeved at there being a lack of cities as they would have just been procedurally generated carbon copies.

I'm not looking at anything til it comes out. Not because of spoilers, but because it's Bethesda and Todd Howard's been talking. Will wait and see what the final product is actually like.

Yeah just like fallout 74 was a huge letdown
