It really is a great game. The story’s imaginative, the ambiance is jawdropping. And that sound design, man. It’s also fairly well polished. Played it for a good while, until I could not be bothered to manage people anymore. It felt too much like a job lol. The UI is a bit clumsy too I felt, but it’s awesome that the grindy bits are sped up and the game doesn’t waste your time, I appreciated that. However I hated the lack of manual saving, especially in a game that sometimes crashes at inopportune moments. It also does this thing where it appears open, but it punishes you if you don’t do things the way it wants you to. I’m in the “it’s a difficult game” camp, but there’s plenty of people who feel it’s an easy game just because they did some actions differently, or timed some events at different times. Still, it’s definitely worth a play.
Yeah, there definitely seems to be a story the game wants to tell, and you’re punished for veering too far from the plot. I’ve definitely restarted a save or two to undo a bad choice.
I do like that it highlights your previous conversation choices, so you know which route you picked and could try another option in your next run. That definitely makes it a bit easier.
I’m excited to see what new alters you create and what their personalities will be like, but I’m also kind of dreading the personnel management system getting too complex.
Okay I’m going to be a pedantic fuck and say no, tomorrow is the one year anniversary. Day 365 is just the end of the first year. Solid dedication though, been following the entire journey, even when you play games that I’m not usually interested in. I wish I gamed every day for a year.
Congrats on the year anniversary! I don't always click on your posts, but when they show up in my feed I'm always happy to see it. I'll have to try out Uncharted 4 since that's your top game in the Best Of section.
When I'm playing games, I never think about taking screenshots. How do you manage to take so many? Do you have the mentality while playing that you're always on the lookout for interesting shots to take? Do you have your finger hovered over the print screen button?
The best of isn’t necessarily a ranking, but I’d still certainly suggest uncharted 4. It’s an awesome experience
I’ve always taken a lot of screenshots to show friends. So much so I have a huge backlog of screenshots. Initially it started as just sharing the backlog but it turned into taking screenshots to share. I play with controller though so screenshots are usually just PlayStation Button + Right Trigger for me. I’m especially fond of games with Photo Modes though
Congrats on the milestone! I have been looking forward what games would be the ones you enjoyed the most.
I never have played the Uncharted Series. I think I should buy a PS4 and just buy the all the games. I would love to play them on PC though. Maybe I’ll look into an emulator.
RPCS3 runs like a miracle if you have the specs. If you can I’d suggest it. I’m kind of contemplating setting it up myself just to play them again. Or maybe trying that PS4 emulator I’ve heard so much about.
Alternatively, I bought my PS3 used for around $60 on eBay. And this is one of the models that can be soft modded with CFW so if you’d like to acquire it with “alternative” methods it’s an option. But even then, I was able to get disc copies of the second and third games for around $10 apiece
Are you just grabbing screens and reviewing stuff from your collection? Because that’s a lot of gaming, like I have played thousands of games over the last 27 years. But, I can’t game and write with that kind of dedication. Really respectable. Have you considered, cataloguing these and getting a blog? Or turning them into Youtube reviews? You gotta lot of material to work with here, all the hard work is done.
I’d say it’s more so that I play a game and I’ll see something that makes me go “wow that’s cool”. So I’ll take a screenshot to share with friends. And I’ve been doing this for years. And I only have like 20 screenshots for a game at the end of the day. And initial initially It just started me showing off the backlog.
But it kind of turned into doing new screenshots every day. And I’m a college student, who right now doesn’t have a job. So, I have a lot of free time.
I have considered doing a blog. Maybe not YouTube reviews. Very much for me this is more like “here’s a cool thing I like. I like this. here’s why” and I feel like reviews, while they have their own merit, kind of take away from that. Because some of the games that I have played, I think there’s no denying that they’re bad games. I still like them though.
Though now I’m typing that, I suppose offering my opinion on these games as in a way made me a sort of reviewer. So regardless of whether I want to or not, my words hold some weight
That’s pretty cool man, respect that. Yeah, I get that 100%. Video Reviews can be pretty formulaic as well, good for stabilising an income if you can cultivate the audience. But, then it’s not something for you.

I suppose Ross from Accursed Farms does reviews that fit that category. Anyway, glad to see someone commit to something they care about and produce something of value consistently. Be proud of it.
Any game that allows for a significant amount of visual customisation should have some sort of transmog system. Having to look like a clown for optimal stats is never a fun or enjoyable gameplay experience, while on the other hand feeling like you look awesome adds so much.
This is the main reason I cheat ballistic weave on everything in fallout 4. I love some of the outfits and it’s dumb that they’re worse than the vault suit.
This is pure poetry. Brought a very literal tear to my eye.
Now that I can breathe again, yes absolutely this should 110% be standard QoL for next-gen RPGs. Hopefully.
I finished The Outer Worlds looking like a psycho in mismatched mascot hats and boots, rapid-switching in my inventory depending on the skill buff I needed for each dialogue check.
This game is balanced around the Witcher Gear I believe, so there’s that. But I do enjoy playing without it for a more aesthetically intricate experience.
I pretty much only play it one way every time… When I’m high enough level, I get Griffin Witcher gear, and when I’m high enough for Feline Witcher gear I stay with it through the base game and both expansions. I did go Bear once and it was okay but never felt as good as a set.
This is the purple shade of the GCN, and its one of the ‘hero’ size images available to use, on SteamGridDB. I just liked to grab one image in that size to separate each ‘section’ in this post.
