Final Fantasy VII Rebirth and Dragon's Dogma 2 by a mile.
A decade ago, I was convinced those two games would never exist. Now I'm going to be playing them back to back in just a few months. That might make 2024 my favorite year for video games by default.
@KundaliniRising333 Dude, your whole personality is hating on Playstation and the reason you come to this site is because it's really important to you to remind everyone of that. Don't get mad because someone called you out on it.
Pretty much what I expected. I don't really have a problem with a bog standard Ubisoft open world game, but I'm not buying this unless they add a third person mode.
Exploration looks pretty fun, which is the only question I still had about this game. It was always going to be a day one buy for me, but it's still nice to know.
It's a damn good platinum. I haven't gotten it yet because I didn't do enough web line takedowns. But that my fault for not looking at the trophy list sooner.
Only really playing 3-4 games on this list, but two of them are far and away mu most anticipated games of 2024, and it looks like I'll be playing them back to back.
I love Vanillaware, but this feels like their blandest game to date. The lack of George Kamitani is really noticeable. I'm sure I'll play it eventually, but I just hope they make a new action game soon.
I deeply appreciate these balance changes Neowiz keep making. It nice to see a developer looking at their game, seeing that there's room for improvement and making it more welcoming. Rather that treating 'accessible' as a dirty word, saying you made you game hard on purpose and only making changes to just make it harder.
The PS4 is ine hell of a console. The only reason it's not my favorite is because the PS5 exists now. Still, Sony really hit their stride with this one and it deserves all the success it got.
The PS5 is the first console I've ever owned since launch, and it became my default console faster than any other. There's no denying that playing on it is just more fun than any other system I've owned. And I have a feeling that the best is still yet to come. And considering the offerings we've gotten so far, that's a really exciting feeling.
I'm giving Lies of P another go. I wasn't really feeling it the first time I tried it, but now that I have a build in place it really starting to click. I just wish they'd work on the tracking and hitboxes because you take way too much damage to not have those dialed in right.
Easy 10/10. It improves on everything the first two games did, and finds a new take on the symbiote story that really stuck with me. GOTY for sure. Insomniac could make a hundred more Spider-man games and I'll play every single one of them.
They also announced that we'd be getting more original suits post launch. And that's awesome. I love seeing all these original designs from different types of artists.
I have it downloaded but I haven't started it yet. With how effectively Genshin Impact has slotted into my life, maybe I'm a little nervous about it happening again.
I'm neck deep in Genshin Impact's latest update. Fontaine is something else; all the new plants, enemies and underwater gameplay is getting me excited for this game again and it feels great.

That's good news for the entire Skull and Bones fanbase. I'm sure he'll be thrilled to finally get his hands on it.
Re: Earth-Sized MMO Light No Fire Is the Next Title from No Man's Sky Dev Hello Games
Look pretty fun. Can't wait to play it.
Assuming Microsoft doesn't buy Hello Games and make it Xbox exclusive, because that something I have to always live in fear of now.
Re: Ori Dev's Action RPG No Rest for the Wicked Announced for PS5
Looks like an isometric souls-like. Or in other words; incredibly safe and boring.

Easy 10/10. It improves on everything the first two games did, and finds a new take on the symbiote story that really stuck with me. GOTY for sure. Insomniac could make a hundred more Spider-man games and I'll play every single one of them.
Re: Delayed for an Impressive Sixth Time, Skull and Bones Now Expected in Early 2024
They called it Skull and Bones because that's what we're all going to be by the time it comes out.
That's the third time I've made that joke and it somehow gets more true each time.

Also I don't know if it actually part of Gamescom, but Project Mugen looks sick as hell.

Obviously not confirming anything here, but I've heard that Rise of the Ronin is targeting an early 2024 release as well.
