Witcher 3 for me.

Boil 'em, mash' em, and stick 'em in a stew. Lovely golden crisp with a nice piece of fried fish.

But a rocket is not a racoon

Finally dipped into No Man's Sky this week. I didn't bought it when it launched, so I don't know how it was then. NMS has me hooked. The game doesn't tell you everything and after the short tutorial, you're pretty much left on your own.

The gameplay loop of extracting resources, scanning stuff, and getting better upgrades or unlocking new stuff does appeal to me. It's the kind of game I put on a podcast or YouTube on in the background and just zone out for a while.

It does get repetitive, since most planets are just copy-paste versions of something you've seen before with different colours and patterns, with the whole infinite universe stuff and whatnot and there are still some bugs, like items disappearing from your processor.

I'm still very new to the game, but I think hello games, despite their false advertising, kinda made this one work. Even if it did took a long time to get NMS to this point.

I'm hoping they've learned something from this and make next game, light no fire, enjoyable from the start.

Don't do that. Don't give me hope 🥲

Mad Max 2015. I've been burned by movie-tie-in games in the past, so I was skeptical going into this.

Man, I'm glad to be proven wrong. This game was literally a blast. The wasteland, the car combat, and the melee combat were fun to explore and play.

It can get repetitive, but I didn't mind it. Upgrading the magnum opus, improving allied strongholds, and making Max into a road warrior was just so much fun.

If you like the mad max franchise, you might want to give this one a whirl. Also Dinki-Di is the best doggo.

Kinda looks like a surprised sunflower

That is just Majestic.

Weak builds, strong builds. A true tarnished win with their favorites (fashion, that is)

I know man! Goes back to chess and backgammon. Reusing the same designs all the time.
