  • Bit by bit playing HellBlade 2. The game is amazing however, the story and atmosphere is so strong (for a lack of better word) that I need downtime after playing it for an hour. It’s so dark and these voices gets to your own head sometimes, especially when playing with headset.

    Recently started Warhammer Space Marine 2. A fun hack ‘n slash to just play after study, work or just general a long day.

    Debating to purchase Persona 3 Reload when it is on sale. I played and loved Persona 5 Royal, clocked in 124-125 hours into it. I heard mixed stories about Reload, great character but lackluster dungeons and less social elements.


  • I’m debating to play ‘‘The Final Draft’’. I read its basically the same game but with a slightly more story regard the ending of the game. I did not notice/ know that;

    spoiler

    The three stories were written by Wake to escape prior Alan Wake 2 story. I probably have missed that somehow.

    I unfortunately never played any Max Payne games, are they worth to get into?


  • The gameplay is similar/ the same. You have a light and a gun/ shotgun. Though the game is much more about the immensely dark atmosphere, storytelling and characters played in it. Honestly the game has some great shock-moments. I played it in PC with mouse and keyboard and the controls were (butter) smooth in my opinion.

    Don’t forget the very first Alan Wake was released in 2010. So the gameplay will feel dull and lackluster in comparison to todays gaming standards. It’s unfair to compare the two games due to the amount of years and technological advancements of today.

    You can watch a video or read synopsis but you’ll do yourself a disservice.

    EDIT: changed ‘‘fill’’ to ‘‘feel’’








    • Recently finished Cyberpunk 2077. For all its hype, I found it a mediocre/ generic game.
    • I’m trying to get into Baldur’s Gate 3 but it seems, it just is not my type of game (first D&D). Might also have to do with the fact, I tried to replace LeagueOfLegends with Baldur’s Gate.
    • (re)playing Last of Us 1 (remake version on PC). Stays a great game.
    • Debating whether to quit Returnal and play another game such as Alan Wake 2 or Hellblade 2.

    I’m also trying to find a isometric/ top-down game to replace LeagueOfLegends with. But no luck.


  • Very few people are downloading the big-name console games ported over to iPhone in the last year – and an even smaller number are paying $15-50 to unlock the full games.

    I mean… What did they expect? Playing on either console or PC is most of the time, the go to. Plays much smoother, bigger screen and perhaps better FPS.

    Playing on a iPhone means smaller screen, bothersome controls (sure you can connect your controller to it but then just play on console/PC). Not to mention the article wrote about “to unlock the full games” which I assume means, you’ll have to pay for the game plus pay within the game for certain things(?).

    The game is only playable on iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max and high-end iPads.

    This might also have to do with it, not everyone immediately purchases the newest iPhone (and then purchasing a game that is much better to be played on console/ PC).

    There was more I wanted to quote from the article but have to hurry for work.
