I keep hearing "the games industry is dead", but there is actually A LOT of interesting stuff on its way! 👀 Here's a BIG list of all the games I'm genuinely excited/curious about, which I plan to play or cover.

Edgerunners had to live up to Cyberpunk 2077. Cyberpunk 2, will have to live up Edgerunners 2. I'm calling it now.

A reminder to thank yourself every so often if you don't understand/know half the bullshit that goes on daily in the online "discourse". You're doing good, keep it up.

I made a game devs/publishers tier list, for fun. 🎮 • It's ranked on MY current opinion and/or experience with them or their games. • Current opinion = if I made this when Dragon Age Origins came out, Bioware would have been at the top of the list. Now? Most definitely not. • Yes some of them are long gone, yes I put some games rather than devs (I couldn't find the logos, just picture the dev instead). • No, disliking a game dev/publisher ≠ disliking their games. • You can like a product and dislike the company behind it - before the GTA cult comes after me. • Example: I LOVE Total War Games, but I hate the DLC practices from SEGA and CA, thus they are where they are. • If some devs/publishers are missing, assume I don't have an opinion, experience, or they simply didn't come to mind. (subject to change, might have moved some stuff up/down, will probably update in the future!)

The previous list was too restrictive, here's a better one. Still not the full picture, but I feel more satisfied with it, might add more in the future. Like I said, these are some of my all time favorites and some of these games shaped who I am today. Thank you to all the good devs of the past, present and future. #Gaming

Can we take a moment to appreciate how GOOD and fitting was the music in Stronghold? When I heard the old tracks being used in Stronghold 4 I felt so happy and nostalgic.

If you are struggling with #Dawnwalker's combat camera, here's a tip: do nothing about it. I mean it, let the enemies come at you and let the game decide who to fight. Do I like it? Absolutely not, but I'm tired of fighting the camera, this way will frustrates you less. If I control a character, I should be in control of all its available actions and choices, not the game, alas this is what they decided for this target lock system. Clip below is on challenging difficulty, I know, I got hit a few times, sorry I'm not a pro. By the way, look at how the camera behaves at , , .

Then, the game will be great, I have no doubt about it (and I've never said otherwise anywhere). Now, what I do take problem with and why I will not be buying it: 1) The price, not because it's high per se, but because it's setting yet another industry wide rise (please don't bring up inflation). 2) Console only release: Rockstar has all the means to do a PC release at the same time, but that wouldn't make them as much money, they know their fanbase will buy the game multiple times, along with their console of choice if missing, we all know it. 3) On the same topic of console: performances. I refuse to play the game if it's locked to 30 fps, with motion blur, and I doubt it will even maintain that framerate during gameplay, given how old the hardware is. 4) Sony and the digital future: I'm not going to be expand on this, I've made a long post about my opinion on the matter a while back already. But, TLDR, it's quite evident to me that the game releasing only digitally (at first) is yet another move to just make more money, and the timing of Sony announcement aligns too well. 5) Ultimate edition: GTA is all about your experience, customization, "being who you want to be" in the game, locking that content behind it is not something I'm happy to see. Ultimate edition could have been a "season pass" for content yet to develop, instead they chose to paywall already existing things. And for now, that's all I got, I haven't watched the gameplay reveal yet and I wouldn't dare review a game I have not played and that's not even out. You can say a lot of this stuff is more personal, sure, but that's what I got. It's 4 am, so I'll be off now, hope this suffices.
