    Was going to start ArseCreed Odyssey then decided there wasn't much point if I'm going to be upgrading soon and could therefore be playing it looking much prettier.

    So I've installed the most recent Thief game that everybody hated and will give that a bash.

    I did give The Flame in the Flood a brief go. I got it free somewhere but that sort of survival-y-ness isn't for me.

    A game so average that it's actually worse than a bad game.

    That's kinda what I've heard but it's probably near enough my thing to kill some time before the new shit arrives.

    If you're playing 6/10's go for Raven's Wolfenstein reboot. Or that WarHammer Space Marine game.

    This 6/10 is already in my Steam library is the difference.

    Can't remember why, I must've seen it for a pittance unless it was given to me by Humble at some point.

    Yeah, there's usually a plague, curse or world-ending something that only your character can stop. Sometimes Nazis just aren't enough.

    Started a Madden 19 fantasy draft franchise but made a cunt of the draft.

    Anyone know how you play one of these with a downloaded roster?

    Really enjoying the story of Arkham Asylum even though I'm still a bit of a noob when it comes to fighting off plebs. It's pretty satisfying when you get it right though. Blowing up tanks in the Batmobile is pretty formulaic but it's not too bad.

    So I'm enjoying Thief well enough and I think it's the sort of thing I was in the mood for but I can see why it's so 6/10. The story / characters all seem a bit meh so far and there are loads of little UI / control annoyances that are starting to bug me.

    ABout 1/3 into Red Dead Redemption 2 now. Holy hell is this game well-made and stunning. The world-building is absolutely amazing.

    That said - it all gets more and more repetetive, and really the game seems a little pointless. It's basically a Western Sim, which maybe was the intention, but it just feels like that whole world goes a little to waste as the gameplay is so sluggish and the narrative a little simple.

    Also - the fact that you literally fight the same enemy over and over gets a tad old after a while, despite the efforts to keep the missions novel.


    I'm currently down in what's supposed to be Louisiana though and oh my fuck is it awesome. Can just ride around in the Nawlins copy town and the swamps around it all day long just soaking in the ambiance. Doesn't help that I have such a sweet-spot for Louisiana in the first place.

    Romance, yes. The kids say they love each other at 9 and then the game fast forwards to 18 where they start kissing (almost like they wanted to avoid some implications). This relationship takes like six days to happen. On day 1 they're sharing baths and by day 6 they're spoon feeding each other sundaes.

    The parents are weird as well. The mother's an actress who kind of abuses her submissive househusband. His jobs seem to mainly be baking, cooking and making dresses for the girls. He is always wearing an apron.

    Yes. 9/10 on steam. The author has churned about 14 of them out in the span of 3 years.

    It's being published by Ratalaika who throw everything at us. I unlocked two more endings now. One of them the girl is sad when the demon lass leaves. In the other one, the demon's sister turns up to reap your soul because you were a dick or something.

    One of the 9 year olds is a demon from Hell so they can do that, "URMIGAWD, FISH OUT OF WATER CRAZINESS!" stuff.

    is there not even a CYOA element to them? If not then I get there's presumably a money element for the site but I don't see why you'd be reviewing stuff created by a fella who seems like he may well be an actual nonce.

    Yes. There's six endings and I've seen three so far. The thing is, anything other than the sixth ending (where they grow up and kiss) is seen as a failstate. It cuts an already short game shorter. Food gets weirdly fetishised in this, by the way.

    According to the PSN trophy stats, not sure how accurate it is. There are just over 1000 people who have done it a which is 0.7% of the player base who own GT Sport.

    Well, that's the Strawberry Vinegar review up. The last ending I found was the 'let's be best friends' one which still has a flirty insistence to it. Just write them as teenagers to start with and this is all avoided.

    I'm absolutely hooked on Arkham Asylum even though there is loads of button bashing. But it just keeps calling me back. If only the loading times weren't so fucking long.
