Mass Effect 3 from the Mass Effect legendary edition (finished them all)

God man did that game make me sick. Great game but had to play it in 30 minute spurts.

For Witcher fans: a bunch of Witcher stuff for free at GOG, Dark Horse books, Gwent cards, concerts and the game Witcher Enhanced Edition free https://lp.gog.com/the-witcher-hub/en?_ga=2.95944860.1208054468.1625902066-24583047.1622878687

Same with me, I'm in the middle of the third one right now and I have to say the first one is my favorite and surprisingly the second one is a little bit more of a chore! I always thought the second one was great back then but as far as replayability it's not IMO. It's basically go get these people, do a mission for them, now play the final mission. lol. ME2 might be my least favorite today, but they’re all good. The Walking Dead is phenomenal love that series, although like you I got burnt out on it. I haven't played the final season that came out on epic. I have to go back and play them all straight through some day. Also, Wolf Among Us was GREAT, wish they made a sequel on that one.

Just saw Playstations Steam store front. I wonder if Microsofts purchase of Zeni (Bethesda etc) also pressured them. https://store.steampowered.com/franchise/playstationstudios

Consoles today are dedicated game PC’s, saw that coming for years and hated the lack of BC on Sony’s side so my last major console purchase was the Xbox One X. Won't be getting the new ones, don't need them. Finally got a new machine this year my last one lasted 10 years and played everything pretty much perfectly. I got an AMD 5000 series CPU and am still using my GTX 1060. One thing that scares people off is buying or building a machine and how they can comfortably play games so consoles are probably always going to sell but it makes sense that Sony or whatever wants to release some games on PC, that's where all the money and viewers are (streaming, competitive play etc). I can't remember where I read it but there was a huge surge of PC sales the last few years. Probably a lot of young people trying to be the next big streamer.

Galaxium free on Steam https://store.steampowered.com/app/1158450/GALAXIUM/ Sherlock Holmes Devils Daughter $1 https://store.steampowered.com/app/350640/Sherlock_Holmes_The_Devils_Daughter/

lol this is good news, I hope they release it on PC too, I wonder if its playable on PC through Xbox game pass or whatever.... but I may support it by buying it on a console anyway. B2 and the Champions of Norrath games are classics as well.

Nubarron: The adventure of an unlucky gnome is free on Steam https://store.steampowered.com/app/414160/Nubarron_The_adventure_of_an_unlucky_gnome/

Icewind Dale Enhanced Edition Not sure what to feel about this one it's rather unremarkable compared to the first two Baldurs Gate games.

I agree, I saw the writing on the wall when I got the PS4 on release within the first year, just the way Sony treated backwards compatibility. At that point I remember thinking to myself I do not want to invest on any digital games on any console at all, might as well build my steam\gog library and not to mention: ditching those monthly ‘online’ subscriptions. I'm perfectly comfortable playing games on a computer, I've always played games primarily on a computer since the late 80’s but I think some type of console box will always have a place though, for people that just want to turn on something and just start playing and those who know nothing of computers. At one point some years back, I had some hand problems too (years of doing IT work and programming) so I almost had no choice but to switch. Regardless if I did own a new console, I’d only be buying exclusives anyway so the library would be really small and almost not worth it for the price of the machine.

It took forever with PS4, I remember not having anything to play with for like a year or two it's just going to get worse with each console release. I don't expect anything from Microsoft, they've embraced PC\Win10 and cross platform play. Sony I expect the usually Naughty Dog stuff, maybe two releases and possible remasters again. God of War maybe one more game and maybe remasters. Same with anything else one or two games and then on to the PS6. Elder Scrolls 6 would help boost sales but that'll be released everywhere it's not an exclusive.

Exactly. Sony as a pub. probably has distribution rights etc. so the devs are screwed. If so, better to spread it around on the internet as files. F' them (sony)

I saw this coming years ago which is why I switched to PC permanently and only physical exclusives on Sony (God of War, Uncharted). Lots of titles will be lost forever. https://www.playstationlifestyle.net/2021/04/02/2000-digital-only-games-lost-ps3-psp-vita-ps-store-closures-playstation/ https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/revealed-the-138-playstation-games-that-wont-be-available-anywhere-after-store-closures/ Pirate the shit out of Sony. It's totally fine.

I remember there was a Dreamcast game based off the show, I think it was a Diablo clone. I'll have to get this, I added it to my wishlist on Steam.

Persona 4 (almost got 100% achievements) playing it again on new game+ to try for it. Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition Siege of Dragonspear

I'm having fun.....playing Baldurs Gate (90's).

DAI - One word: Hinterlands. Game lost lots of fans. Deep into the game (and ignoring all the shard & option quests) it gets better.....but soooo many people I know shelved it. Doom Eternally Out of Ammo...and the parkour double dash sonic jumpfest almost killed it for me. 2016 is my go to modern Doom. Cyber Shadow, I haven't played but I know those damn piranha fish in Ninja Gaiden Black and of course the Medusa heads from a dev who hates his own game. Broken controllers abound because of that nonsense, makes you wonder why on earth someone would think to put that in their own game. I think the older I get the less tolerance I have. Oh well.
