@Th3solution Not to get into some kind of list wars or anything but my current list of unfinished games is: Darks Souls 3 dlc, Bloodborne dlc, Doom, Witcher 3 dlc, Dishonoured 2, Ratchet and clank, No Man's Sky, Torment, Battlefield 1, Deadpool, Divinity original sin, Resi Evil 7, Just Cause 3, Sonic Mania, Steep,Tearaway, Borderlands The Pre-Sequel.
There is probs about 3 I will not go back to and can be crossed off. I don't think there is much that really interests me from now until the end of year so hopefully I will be to put a dent into it.
Currently playing Beyond Two Souls. Liking it much more than I thought I would after not getting on with the controls on Heavy Rain. They feel better in this game although they can still be problematic when navigating in tight spaces or when playing the stealthy missions.
There are some really standout action scenes which I found really exhilarating to play, which I wasn't expecting at all. Will most likely get Detroit: Become Human at some point.
@JohnnyShoulder Oh yeah, Beyond TS is firmly in my backlog and I have considered starting it many times. I enjoyed Heavy Rain on PS3, but I don’t thing it’s worth revisiting as I’d rather experience something I haven’t played yet like Beyond and then later Detroit, like you. Hopefully the price for Detroit gets a heavy discount on Black Friday or something. Your ‘sidelog’ (has a good ring to it doesn’t it?) shares a few from mine too, like No Man’s Sky. I was tempted to put that back in last night too since it’s supposedly much better since I played it at launch, but ultimately I went with Aloy instead.
I’ve eyed purchasing Divinity OS many times also, and it was recently heavily discounted in the PSN sale (maybe like $15 or something as I recall) and I was tempted to buy, but it looks like a very long game and I just have too many others I’d put in front of it right now.
I’ll put in a plug for Ratchet & Clank though - it is probably only about a 15-20 hour game just to get to the end, and it’s great fun. If you stalled in the middle, it’s not likely to be as hard to get back into as say, a huge epically long game like DOS, JC3, or one of the Soulsborne games that are unforgiving if you’re out of practice. Tearaway would also be in the category of a quick one to knock out, but you kinda have to be in the mood for that one. R&C is just fun no matter what your in the mood for. It has it all - humor, shooting, platforming, good story, beautiful graphics, etc.
I just finished Celeste with my wife...man I haven't cursed like that in a while, lol. There's a couple annoying parts toward the end that were tricky enough that I declared the game a "0 out of 10" (got a angry look from her on that)
Any other 2D games or platformers anyone can recommend that are like that game? Preferably without any shooting involved. Was thinkin' about Swords of Ditto next as the wife-time game.
Also, I've got ONE TROPHY LEFT in Fighting EX Layer before that sweet, easy platinum, but it involves spamming super moves for literally 7+ hours in training mode (or otherwise training naturally for enough time to rack up 500,000 damage dealt...really, really, really dumb). If it wasn't for the fact I haven't been this close to a platinum in years, I'd have given up by now!
@Th3solution I fired up Ratchet and Clank the other day actually as I think I'm quite near the end now. It is a fun game no matter mood I'm in. I can be a very 'moody' player, so to speak but some games I can play whenever. Tearaway I liked but every time I fire it up I need to draw something and I can't be bothered with it.
I'm trying not to buy anymore open world or longer games until I clear some of the ones I've already started. Which is one of things that has put me off Yakuza 0.
Think I got Divinity Original Sin for something like £8 on the ps store last year. Not played much but i did like what I played of it. Before I get back to that I wanna finish off Dark Souls 3 DLC (just got the final bosses to go, I think) and Bloodborne DLC (only at the very first lamp).
@smelly_jr Have you tried Rayman, Shovel Kinght, Rain World, Spelunky and Super Meatboy? Not sure if the last two are on PS4 mind.
@RogerRoger 🤣 Oh my... that is so hilarious. Hilarious because it’s true! Lol
I know I’ve seen this guy before. What’s his name? I have to look up some of his other stuff.
I find it so funny because his morning I switched back to Yakuza 0 for a play session and during a fight I wanted to switch battle styles, so what did I press? Well, L1 of course, because that’s the way Aloy switches weapons. 😂 Fortunately that the guard button for Yakuza, so no major harm done.

@RogerRoger That was hilarious. I've pressed R2 to go faster a lot of times because of Assassin's Creed. Then it does something else. Or the other day I think I was playing COD, can't remember what exactly, but I kept pressing L1 and R1 to try and aim and shoot because my brain went back to playing on the PS3 for some reason. It took me a moment to realize what I was doing wrong.
EVE Online is one of my favourites games of ever
MMO, PvP game.
The future, travel between solar systems. You start as a pilot and captain of a small ship. You can upgrade it, buy another ship. You can become a miner, a pirate, you can join a corporation. You can become a Skill Injectors, Plex and ISk trader - you have many options.
The game is very time-consuming and understanding and learning to play in it takes a few months. In my opinion, 9/10
@RogerRoger I remember thinking that Chloe handled better than Nate when played Lost Legacy. There was a several month separation between the two games, so it’s hard to say for sure, but yes, Nate has that heaviness and slower feels to his movement and you’re right, compared to Lara Croft and Aloy, is downright sluggish. But I haven’t gone back to play UC4 (I rarely replay games) so I’m curious what I’d think after playing LL.
Slightly off topic but just a random thought: my favorite character to play as it relates to ease of movement and quick response to the input is probably 2B. So deft and easy to maneuver. Aloy is up there too. Also Ratchet. And I have a feeling Spider-Man is going to join that club as well.

Time to go back and play more Nier Automata. Last time I played, I did a few not particularly fun side quests, and then I've just not been in the mood for it since. But I was loving the game before then, so I'm sure I'll love it again once I start playing.
@crimsontadpoles Yeah some of the side quests are a little odd or less engaging than the main story. But I’m pretty sure they all will be available on subsequent playthroughs and (not sure which playthrough you’re on, but sounds like the first) the second playthrough may actually be a better time for mopping some of those up to break a little bit of the repetitiveness that can hamper it. But definitely don’t give up on it and get through all 3 main playthroughs to experience it all.
“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.”
@Th3solution Yep, I got a bit further in the main story, and that reminded me of why Nier Automata is brilliant. I'm still fairly early on in the game, so there's lots ahead for me to look forward to.
@Kidfried Ha ha I was on about the normal old hunter enemies! Only just come across the first boss, does seem to be very aggressive but still beatable.
Life is more fun when you help people succeed, instead of wishing them to fail.
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.
My father passed away yesterday, and I need something distracting in the hard times to come. I want to focus on the lighter, relaxing, beautiful and nicer side of things when it comes to my choice of games in the forseeable future.
The new No Man's Sky update. I tried it out at launch two days ago. I was initially annoyed that I lost my old save, but don't really mind starting out again. I still got to keep some of the stuff I collected. The updates are quite good, especially that you have more packpack slots. I also really like the 3rd person view. I enjoyed what I played and will continue with it today.
Other than that I will continue with some other relaxing games, like Euro Fishing, which had some new maps I haven't picked up yet.
@Bonbonetti So sorry to hear of your loss. Hang in there. Another game that comes to mind is Abzu if you prefer a more oceanic theme. It’s very chill like Journey and Flower, with calm orchestral music and moments of introspection with no actual combat.
