Just finished Lara Croft And The Temple Of Osiris, I'm on a roll right now :smugdraper:

Played it co-op with a buddy. It was acceptable. The puzzles were decent without being frustrating,the combat was ehhhh. To be honest I thought the title fell flat. Story was lame,graphics were low budget. It was about 5-6 hours long,didnt out stay its welcome. With a friend it was alright but I can't recommend it.

5.5/10
I don't know if you played Lara Croft and The Guardian of Light, but I thought that one was a lot better. I dropped Temple of Orisis in an hour, just wasn't that good.

I finished Trails of Cold Steel and that ending... the wait for the sequel is gonna be brutal. Cold Steel 2 has overtaken Persona 5 and is now my most anticipated game of this year.

I just started back playing Disgaea 5. I was more than half way through that. After that it's Xenoblade X and then Fallout 4.

Knee deep in Dragon's Dogma on PC. Really digging the combat and character movement. Every WRPG should play this well.

Its a Japanese take on western fantasy.

It and Dark Souls do fantasy better than anything western in terms of games imo, western devs need to learn from them. Action rpgs should have amazing action and DD does it better than anyone.

Have put everything on the back burner to finished 'Dragon's Dogma' (Steam). Game is cool and addictive but there are numerous bizarre design choices/mistakes - the lack of a horse or fast travel, the fact that instructing my pawns seems to do nothing, the huge amount of money I get from enemies etc. The side quests seem pretty generic as well. Definitely going to finish it though.

Also found my old copy of 'Wipeout 2048' (PSV) - still the greatest Sony racer. :ohlawd:

- Finished Dragon's Dogma's main story, played through a good chunk of Bitterblack Isle. Think I'm done with it for now, I'm way underleveled and at this point I think I got my fill of the game. Really enjoyed it though.
- Finished Episode 5 of Tales From the Borderlands. Such an amazing finale, think it's officially my favorite "interactive story" series, even beating Life is Strange.
- Played about an hour of The Witness, really digging it so far. The puzzle --> follow cables to next puzzle loop is really addictive
- Started playing Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition again cus Im hyped for Rise. I forgot how amazing this game looks and sounds.

Feels good to be playing SP games again. I had got caught in that multiplayer loop in the past couple months. :wow:

Im about 12 hours into mad max,thinking about dropping it :ld:

Game is basically a reskinned shadow of mordor. Same combat,same rpg lite system,same digital chore open world check list. I dont get the appeal of this game design. Its so fukking thoughtless. Just create a huge map,fill it with arbitrary tasks that add nothing but time padding. And the world is just so empty and boring. Just a huge ugly desert waste land filled with nothing.
