Making some serious progress in Tears of the Kingdom and finishing up Final Fantasy XVI.

Trying to get things squared away, Remnant 2 come out soon and I'm excited about that.

Would love to see more X style games personally, but I wouldn't be opposed to seeing Capcom take a big risk and try to modernize the franchise too. Was always intrigued by the Maverick Hunter gameplay footage personally although I know it's somewhat polarizing.

Honestly, at this point anything that ins't a mobile cash grab game would be fun to dream on at least!

Hopefully finishing Final Fantasy XVI. Mixing in some TOTK too, fell off that one a bit because I degen'd my way to 100 in Diablo 4. Getting back into it has been really fun.

I sincerely hope this works as well as this article says it does and Ubi shares the technology with other games. XIM(Cronus stuff even more so honestly someone figure that one out plz) is a plague on a few games I play.

 

As Resident Evil and Street Fighter flourish, Capcom has said sequels to more obscure franchises could happen, including Sengoku Basara.

Ornstein and Smough on the 1.0 version of Dark Souls in 2011 when I was very bad at Dark Souls and video games in general. In the DLC Hawkeye Gough has some line about how hunting the dragons teased out his dearest emotions and that's truly how I felt about my O&S experience. They kicked the ever loving shit out of me so many times. I remember finally scoring the kill in spite of the controller nearly falling out of my hands due to sweat at like 4 AM. Reacted a bit too loud, woke up my girlfriend (now wife haha). Just one of those moments that I will always remember.

Besides that, mostly all the Destiny raids haha. The Day 1 raiding experience in Destiny is just such a unique and awesome thing. Nothing quite like problem solving with a group of friends. Deep Stone Crypt is probably the most memorable of such experienced to me, first time the group I play with tried a Day 1 raid and completing it just gave me such a crazy high.

It's quite good. Definitely referential, but it has enough wiggle with some of the thematic stuff that it can get away with it. Will be cool to see where the stuff with "feeling springs reacting" leads to.

Gameplay felt more than serviceable but not quite on the level of a From Software title in the slice we played. More than good enough though. Excited for the full release.

dude is super talented and it showed last year but just cannot stop messing up. Was a 5 star recruit going into USC and got kicked out. Suspended by Patriots at the end of last year in spite of being arguably their best defensive back. Sitting on a winning hand but cannot get out of his own way.

bonus points: he also tweeted at Ja Morant last month calling him an idiot for putting social media clout and guns over his career lol

 

Good to hear. Arcane has made some stellar titles over the years. It would be incredibly reactionary to shutter the studio for Redfall.

They seem entirely content with burning it down and seeing what they're left with after. Not even pretending to play nice anymore.

Super Metroid and Chrono Trigger are the first two I think of personally. Just historically great games with legacies that are still felt today.

What's everyone on /m/gaming playing lately?

I'm still making my way through the Diablo IV campaign, really enjoying that but looking forward to blasting and figuring out if I enjoy the endgame more than anything at this point. I'm a binge Path of Exile player but the past few leagues haven't really done it for me. It's been nice to play an ARPG again and I'm enjoying D4's slower pace. Zoom zoom is great in POE, but it's nice to get back to basics a little bit.

Went with Whirlwind Barbarian. Know it's meta, but Cyclone Slayer is my favorite POE build so I'm just trying to enjoy my time as the overpowered class rather than fighting it haha.

Played through the Lies of P demo as well and thought it was mostly great. Not the greatest example of gameplay for the genre IMO, but the production values and the vibe were stellar.

How about you guys?

 

Summer Games Fest ends with a banger!
