What are you playing?

I'm glad i didn't Google it. :) ...My Dad told me a long time ago "If you can imagine it then it's there already and even stuff you can't imagine".
 
Think about CyberPunk.
I'd wait till the update. While it's mostly for the PS4 they'll be a number of fixes for the PS5 and PC. I'm waiting to get a PS5 when God Of War Ragnarok comes out. I did notice that Immortals Fenyx Rising is on the PS5 as is Assassin's Creed Valhalla...both of those was better than CyberPunk imho.
 
Very impressed with how Shadow of the Tomb Raider looks with all the upgrades I've done recently.
Here's Lara in a typically pensive/concerned mood.

im playing these games again too, good stuff. are you using any mods or just cranking up settings to max in-game? i'm doing the latter
 
Right now I am playing Wolfenstein 3D and it's kicking my ass. I'm on the last episode and determined not to quit this time.

Like the original Far Cry was kicking my ass back in December, 2013, but I didn't give up. I finished it in a single month, but after it was over, I stopped being interested. That's why I never played it again after 2013, despite I just started in 2013.

The first Far Cry was hard for me of all of the Far Cry series but imo it was the best. it was a lot of fun.

I just finished the Outriders demo yesterday, it was ok, but it wasn't for me. I'd give it a 6/10, maybe 7/10. I don't know, just wasn't for me.
 
Completed Shadow of Mordor. Although I liked the nemesis system, games without good stories are just not my thing. Was thinking of getting Shadow of War currently on sale but meh I'll pass.

Downloading Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen currently. Let's hope it has a good story although looking online it's not favorable in that regard. I just bought it in a whim on a sale.

Nope. Dogma is a Kingdom amalur reckoning meets final fantasy meets nonsensical plot. :roll:
 
Finished Ghost of Tsushima, ended up with red armor dye. It's a good game but it was a classic case of Act I > Act II > Act III.

Started Judgement - got sucked in for a couple of hours only to realize that remaster is heading to PS5. I'm in third chapter now (about 15 hours in) and still wonder if I should continue my playthrough on PS4 slim or just ditch it and do it at 60 fps on PS5 at some point:
Looks like they adjusted their color pallet, high contrast look gets replaced by something much more realistic and yeah - it's no longer sub 30 fps but "solid 60" instead.
 
For superlative quality screenshots, Shadow of the Tomb Raider leads the pack imho. Here, Lara meets the neighbours.

Mad Max isn't far behind and last night I watched Fury Road - what a film!

gee, that look on her face!
neighbor's girl is definitely envying
I always had a problem rationalising Lara's facial expressions in Shadow. Most of the time she has this concerned sisterly look and the next minute she's hacking people to death. I'd rather she was one or the other and stayed like that - preferably a tough bitch all of the time.

Rage is indeed a great looking game, but Max has more of a hook for me.

god. i have to work on my english.
with "that look of her face" i've meant the face of the neighbor's girl but it turns out i've said exactly opposite :laugh:
back to english for newbies :banghead:

edit: have to agree on lara's facial animations. it looks like game producers have let animation team to do whatever they like w/o briefing them about the story of the game.

And also Shadow of the Legend nice game.
I used to be impressed by how Oddysey looked.

Not anymore.

Ubisoft has outdone themselves one more time. This just might be the video game in history that has the very best HDR implementation. Nothing else never came anywhere close.
Thank you @rtwjunkie - you were the one that convinced me.

Assassins' Creed Valhalla is the game I should have bought back in November. But the Cyberpunk sht hype was too big.
I almost...regret nothing, cuz the performance at launch was not that great, and now it's probably the best-optimized game of 2020-2021. This thing looks like nothing else and runs incredibly smooth.
Valhalla does not know how to drop frames, it just runs fantastic.

I can't go back playing AC games like before....if we all remember AC 3 with Connor (the indian). Some say Valhalla doesn't not feel like the Creed. It's a different thing, and it's VERY GOOD!

How amazing these games have grown over the years. And to think I almost missed out on it, mainly cuz all of the haters.
Looking forward more than ver to the next AC. I am convinced Ubisoft just keeps making these games better and better.

I can see Stranded Deep being very addictive.
You need to build a hut before you can save for the first time.
This took me a while, but once you get the hang of it you just keep on scavenging stuff. Also, the game looks great and feels like you're on an island in the middle of the ocean.
If you like crabs, you'll be ok.

I'll pass on carbs, lobster though :D
 
The crabs made me ill, but the sunset was very nice!

OK. Valheim has a certain kind of magic to it.

I'm going to lose some time in this game I think. Nice. Survival, but not clunky as hell... and some neat little features too.

Such as discovering you really can use a chimney on your hut :D

I should replay all those three. I had a GTX 980 when I finished those, now I could run Rise and Shadow with maxed out graphics without any hiccups.
