Started Dying Light The Following and so far it's even better and more intense than the main game. The buggy is awesome and I love that it can be damaged, fixed and upgraded and even run out of fuel. Only did a couple of missions so far with the buggy but it's so much fun.

Did the one where you have to quickly follow the pipeline just as the sun was going down. I thought nothing was gonna get me in the buggy but damn... Those freakin zombies at night are just as fast or even faster than the buggy's top speed. Wtf can't outrun them lol :oops:. They eventually killed me but it was the best and most intense moment in Dying Light so far. Seriously amazing stuff.

And how cool is the soundtrack:

I don't usually do DLCs but man, I enjoyed The Following.

If you have access to Cyberpunk on PC, I'd highly recommend playing it there instead.
The next-gen versions aren't too bad though, I just finished the PS5 version a few weeks back. There are still bugs and glitches but not as bad as the original.

Completed Doom Eternal.

It got better after after there were no more mechanics to learn which needed a tutorial popup. When you've upgraded your ammo capacity, you also get to the point of what the game should have been.

When it was released I read a lot about the marauders, and meh. They are annoying but not THAT annoying. The game is difficult on the default difficulty setting of Hurt Me Plenty (2/4). When you fail a couple of times it gives you the option to wear "sentinel armour", which supposedly reduces damage by a lot, like a pathetic softcock.

All in all, a solid game if you push past the beginning, but even at it's best it doesn't reach the level of Doom 2016.

Now I'm on to Hades, which is fun thus far.

Me neither. Only time I really play DLCs is when it comes with the main game I'm buying for the first time. Don't usually get DLC's seperately.

Man Sekiro is brutal. After I kill a boss I put the controller down. It's relentless. Elden Ring was amazing but it never terrified me this much. Epic epic epic.

Just took down Guardian Ape after 2 hrs of dying. Easier than Genichiro though. After this I'm playing stray for a change in pace.

Deathloop getting boring now and becoming more of a grind. The amount of changes in each loop/time of day cycles, is not so significant to redo it every time to get a little a bit more info. AI is pretty dumb. Visionaries are just as dumb. Once you have two power slabs and one or two guns you like, there is also no point really in collecting anything else. I enjoyed the first couple of run throughs, but now it's just getting boring.

Time to check out the latest Hitman lll map released.

I'm a few hours into AC Valhalla on Series X, not much further than when you first get the upgradable camp. So far this is shaping up as one of my favourite games ever. There isn't a single thing about this so far that isn't awesome.

I loved AC Valhalla. 100% completed it. It's just one of those games that I find so relaxing and fun to play.
