Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 479

My son went to visit cousins for a week now that school is out and he took the Switch with him, even though he has a Steam Deck. So I guess my Tears of the Kingdom play through is on hold until he gets back. It’s going to be a long week of me daydreaming about Koroks and hidden shrines. Guess I will jump back over to Tchia with its BotW influenced gameplay. Wonder if a sequel will include building as a mechanic. Hell, I wonder how many future open world games will have building for that matter. Maybe I can finally get the Plat on Tchia while waiting for my return to Hyrule.

Re: God of War Art Director Joins Netflix for AAA Project

@STOBO. Right now Netflix has about fifty mobile games that you can access for free with your subscription. They are all ad free and without micro transactions. I think eventually you are supposed to be able to play them on your television using your phone as a controller. Most of them are your typical mobile fare, although Oxenfree and its sequel are available. This seems like a lot of talent though for another mobile game. They must have something bigger planned for the future to bring awareness to the platform. I hope we eventually see it, but I have doubts.

Re: The Gorgeous Watercolour Indie Title Dordogne Hits PS5, PS4 Next Month

I absolutely adore games like this. There is a game on PS Plus Extra with a similar painterly style called 11:11 Memories Retold that I discovered because of a comment on this forum. I would never have known about it had not a member here mentioned it in a post. I also purchased and beat Seasons: A Letter to the Future because of its unique art style. I will definitely get this too.

Re: Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened (PS5) - A Lovecraftian Mystery Recreated for a New Era

I really enjoyed this review. It did a nice job of explaining the game mechanics while also establishing the more cinematic narrative structure. This is a game that I most likely would have ignored had it not been for the review. Now I will be looking for a future sale in the store. Also, was this the Sherlock game that was crowd funded? Otherwise, why is it a game that was never meant to exist?
