Rolled credits earlier in Requiem, that was amazing. I’m about an hr into my speedrun currently, just arrived in the city. I should have this 4hr speedrun down.

I respec'd my level 7's on Baldurs Gate 3. I don't like the leveling system or the skill icons anymore. Also, the skull wheels on console suck, there was nothing wrong with how Divinity OS2 done it, nice and customizable in neat rows. I'm constantly ignoring spells/skills cause the icons don't look punchy too and I keep forgetting across cause they get pushed well off the screen

You really crashed out on that game. Why you putting yourself through a game it doesn’t seem like you’re enjoying??

Requiem speedrun finished (2:34hrs) and now my final playthrough on Insanity and it’s legitimately terrifying. I’m currently in the basement, the girl will instant kill with a grab attack .. 😖 also gave me my first heart attack inducing jumpscare grabbing the easy wing keycard on insanity 😆

I'm being cranky, I'll stop now though I am enjoying it at a cery slow pace, it's just a load of little niggling, nagging things that pile up. Tbh, Idk if I can fully get hooked on any game right now, it's been a long while since I have....it's not BG3, it's prolly me tbf. I didn't even like Nioh 3's demo and people are saying it's better than Nioh 2. I seen someone put in 150 hours in two weeks, Nioh 3 is that good apparently and I can't vibe or find a hook on it.

Bite my shiny metal cockpit!

Man .. Requiem insanity run was something else. It’s actually funny that I struggled more on a parry fight than anything else considering the games I play. Also surprisingly short game all through, 26hrs for the plat that required 3 runs. Now it’s time for Doom TDA coz I need to let my brain turn to mush for awhile.

Ruffy and the riverside

Honestly an hidden gem for me, A great platformer with 2D characters in a 3D world. 
It is a bit of a collecthaton with a gimmick.  You can swap colours/textures etc 

Recommended if you platformers like Banjo/Don't mind puzzle elements.

Completion time is + 10 hours and you can get it for 19.99€/$ also sometimes on sale on all platforms.






I’ve fallen in love the Monument Valley franchise. The art, sound and gameplay have really hooked me. I’m on the 3rd game currently (which I should finish today) pretty short games but really fun.

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater.
I think I am about 33 % through. I must admit, I am quite disappointed so far, I don't see (yet) why this is considered the pinnacle of the series by many. I just completed the first two (and completed 4 and 5 many years ago). I found the first game to be great, but not the masterpiece some make it out to be. The second game was indeed incredible and had a lot of mind-blowing ideas. So far Snake Eater has delivered some awesome stealth sections, that are superior to any I experienced in the first two games, but they are too far between. The game is brought down by a lot of cumbersome micromanagement shit, where I am spending a disproportional amount of time in slow menus. A camouflage-system is cool on paper, but it is implemented poorly, as you just have to go to a menu and see the numbers. The survival stuff is also mainly a pain to deal with, hunting and eating food is okay, but fixing injuries is just annoying and repetitive. The game is also just clunky as hell, Snake never does what I want him to, you have to press X twice to make him stand up, and the game changes to first-person by itself when crawling in grass or swimming under water. The story and characters also seem even more campy than the first two games, WTF is up with that Bee-guy?
Also had to navigate through a tedious cave labyrinth. I don't get it! I hope the game catches up, and it becomes obvious why it is held in such high esteem. It started really promising, but if it continues in this gear, I think I would easily rank it as the worst of the MGS games I have played.

It makes sense to me suddenly why Konami picked this game for a remake, as it clearly has the most room for quality-of-life improvements. Just a pity they didn't actually bother to fix them all, as I understand it. Instead they spent the resources on updating the visuals, which was the part that held up well.

Finished the game. The game sort of won me over eventually, there were a lot of good stealth sections, and some of the boss fights were really cool. Still my issues with the game largely remain. Control issues and the story wasn't that interesting to me, sorry. The setting and level design also wasn't the peak of the series I must say, it is much more linear than 1, 2 and 5. I might be in the unusual situation, where the two most celebrated games of a popular franchise are not among my personal favorites. I would easily pick 2 and 5 over 1 and 3. Haven't played 4 since release, but I remember liking it more than 1 and 3 as well.
