Didn't play much this week.

Finished chapter 6 and reached chapter 7 in Ys IX: Monstrum Nox.

Similarly cleared world 5 and reached world 6 in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. At 6-3 right now. This is the toughest world yet, because of both the slippery ice and some of the platforming requires some twitchy-ish reflexes.

What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?

I have been playing a bit of Apex and it isn't a bad game. Much better than Fortnite, IMO. I haven't played Titanfall though.

Disclaimer: I don't play much online / PvP games, so don't have much idea how they compare with other such games.

I'm an old counterstrike player, so highly polished comp fps is my home. But I don't play any of them anymore because none of them have good foundations, so I've been sticking to PvE stuff the last decade or so.

It goes like this:

Two guys from Infinity Ward left that unhappily and then founded the titanfall studio.

They needed money, so ea bankrolled them.

They released Titanfall 1, which was pvp only. It was supposedly great.

Then released Titanfall 2, which was pvp, but also has a really good campaign. 2016

Immediately after, ea acquires the studio. 2017

They released a mobile game. 2017

Relaxed apex

Released some jedi games

Where titanfall 3 continuation of the story???

Titanfall 2 is on sale for like 6 bucks on steam right now. I highly think it's worth it just for the campaign. Don't read anything, don't watch anything, just go play it. It's a short campaign, like 5-12 hours depending on how fast you play through stuff like that.

Thanks for the details, I knew the gist of it but since I didn't used to play PvP at all, never paid them much attention. Will try Titanfall 2 soon.
