Maybe you prefer knights over vikings? If so, we got you covered as well. Or maybe you just want to be a vagabond in space?

10 Comments on This Week in Gaming (Week 21)
Tbh it worths to play the first + its not exactly a long game either, I've finished it 2 times and for me its like an 'acquired taste' kind of game but a good one at that.:oops:
The first game had an RT update some time ago and it holds up pretty well imo. 'I'm a bit concerned about the possible performance of the second game cause yeh UE 5 but I guess I will just tweak my settings and use DLSS as usual/its not a game that requires high fps anyway'
