Grabbed a few more games in the last few weeks asides from Death Steanding 2 which I've finished and do not want it to be over yet, I may go back to DS1 with the directors cut and platinum that yet. Luckily the games below were free, on sale and all have a stickiness to them.
Besides for these games I'm Chipping at the platinum for Keepers Toll and Death Stranding 2, both of which I'd highly recommend at fully price but says a must buy on sale. (Keepers toll is only 5 euro). I still have Oblivion to return to which is hard to get motivated for and I really wanna get my playthrough of Baldurs Gate 3 into full swing and have it stick as well as KCD2 and Sea of Stars so I def do not need to buy anything until Ghost of Yotei. I have a fair idea that Wuchang will not live up to the games it's imitating cause of on screen effects among other issues so I can't see what I will be buying anytime soon asides from The Alters which I intend to get on sale but a few bew release may get me. WU Chang Fallen Feathers, Hell is US, Deep rock Galactic Survivors and Silent Hill F but I have pessimism about all four of those.
Cathrine: Fully body It's cery interesting so far, I wish the scenes didn't have so many cuts as if they are loading. The puzzle gameplay is nice but it's really the odd story and animation tthat's got me. I'll most likely finish this and it's a 50/50 recommendation so far, could go e8ther way.
Risk of Rain 2 Free on PS+ Extra and already played a few hours on Switch, it's a great little game if a bit frustrating at times. It's a rouglite where the gimmick is that difficulty increases so you have to play fast and know where things are so runs are exploration first and then you build and then you run for completion. It's highly recommend on a half price sale and def worth the time free on PS+.
Soulsstone Survivors Not even close to a great Vampire Survivors like and has really odd decisions like tying weapon unlocks to leveling up another random character. Too many systems going on and they don't unlock early enough so it's quite confusing but the feel of the gameplay, the weight of it being so light feeling and the unlocks are my biggest gripe, they are little percentage increase to stats and/or new CD skills. You can keep swapping out skills for a build here which is cool but tougher done when you have invested in a skill. You can continue onto new levels with your current build though which is why I keep returning. I may finish this but I doubt it'll be a over a 7 when all is said and done. I would not recommend.
Habroxia Only bought this cause it's Colin Moriartys game and it was on deep sale. it's okay, a simple SHMUP but kinda fun and decently put together. Not sure I can recommend it on just on hour of gameplay so far.
Banishers Ghosts of New Eden Seen it drop on PS+ Extra and thought why not. Looks decent. I've yet to dive deeper than 30 minutes but so far looks more low end AAA than AA, I'm intrigued and from what I seen researching before I downloaded I suspect I'll be maining this one, could be a gem that flew under the radar.
These games all flow together nicely, esspecially while maining DS2's Platinum, they feel so nice to boot up after a session delivering packages.
I have so much in my backlog, games I know that'll be great but many are daunting and a few that are good but just not good enough to continue. I'll have to go through them and sort the wheat from the chaff.
