The game still has me playing even though I have 4 or 5 other games on the go, better aggregate reviewed games too including Astrobot. It's very rare I play a game after platinuming it, he'll I even want to catch my last three fish and collect the last few outfits I'm missing. I'm starting to wonder if this game is eventually going to surpass the games it's tying with and make it into my top 10 of all time when the dust settles.

Final few bosses on NG+ on hardmode are on par with Sekiros final few bosses (apart from Sword Saint Isshan) even with a massively expanded movement, abilities and approaches to combat along with a second rez and metered actions, the pace of combat and enemy agression just makes it more difficult to master. I have yet to beat Raven on Hard mode, got close but after an hour or two of dying I relented and gonna try again when I get EVE back to the Great Desert in my fourth playthrough to await future updates, seems like the place to leave her, she'll at least have a few more points of damage to take down the insanely spongey health bar evennthough I sense there will be no definitive edge over that boss much like Sekiro doesn't let you over level to beat the bosses. Just gotta git gud. 

A lot of games deserve it over a dlc.

Well to answer your question that I bolded in the spoiler.

Yeah, that makes sense. Thanks. 

It's ruined my gaming experience cause nothing I pkay lives up to it. Thankfully I was able to find a groove with FF7 remake but still, it's nothing on Stellar Blade. I reckon it'll be a while before I find a game that gives me what SB has given me. Still playing though, fourth playthrough doing all side quests again for the good ending and Lily had a meter now so you can see what you need to do, not much at all.

I havent played either one but I would nominate Stellar Blade as well.....(lol)

Wait until you pkay it man, you've no idea what your in for... Well, maybe hyping it up isn't the best thing to do. Go in with realistic expectations and all but still... this gaaaaame man, it's Unreal the fun whitin if you stick past the first 5-7 hours and do all side quests along the way and keep on the standard difficulty. I'm still playing 10 hours after plating it and it's still brilliant and I bet you'll have more fun with mods when the time comes. 

Anyone buy in with the sales? if so please leave your thoughts on the best game of last year, Stelllllar Blade. 

Also, it's a travesty that this game got nothing at TGA.

Bump.

Well I played the Demo and waited until now that is on sale to buy it. Tbh I wanna play it mostly to watch that perfectly modeled ass jumping around the screen. Since I only played like 30 mins of the demo I can say Gameplay is good, but I cant comment on the story/system/overall value.
