What are you playing while you wait for Veilguard?

[Xafron Chi]

I'm not really sure what to expect with Veilguard, but I've decided to get it. I'm too curious to sit on the sidelines and listen to people scream at each other about whether it's good or bad.

Enough about that though, what games are you playing while you wait for it?

I'm hoping to finish up Space Marine 2's operations, Dark Souls 3, and It Takes Two (playing all of them with the same friend).

And then on my own I'd like to finish up Resident Evil 2 Remake, and Black Myth Wukong.

Also been messing around in Tiny Glade (life has been stressful, and I've found it to be a very nice relaxant, I do recommend it).

I'd like to hopefully also start reading The Three-Body Problem (was a gift) and a couple manga and Warhammer books I bought as well. Probably biting off more than I can chew there though.

SW Outlaws and Rogue Trader. I also have a replay of DA2 and Inquisition going, but probably won't progress those given how little time is left. Yay!

Another Rogue Trader, nice.

I'm waiting for Outlaws to come to Steam at the inevitable 70% discount, and then I'll likely grab it.

GTA IV rn alongside DOOM and RotTR

I assume that's Rise of the Tomb Raider?

That series of Tomb Raider games is pretty fun.

I never could get into WoW. Granted I last tried it probably over 10 years ago.

Recently it has been a few. Expeditions: Rome, Last Train Home, Warframe, Helldivers 2.

Also finished DAI just recently to jog my memory on recent events.

How is Last Train Home? That one looked really interesting to me.

It is quite okay. I mostly like it for the historical aspect it takes inspiration from.
It gets a bit samey however, despite giving you two parts of the gameplay to focus on.
Managing your train and sending squads to points of interests on the map and the combat missions.

The missions are a bit Commandos lite. You are encouraged to complete the missions mostly in a stealthy way (you are outnumbered and there is a limit to how much ammo your troops have), but there are also an absence of some mechanics you would expect from stealth games. Like guards reacting to dead guards appearing in their vision.
They don't do that, they just walk past them with no care in the world.

Apart from that I still think it is a solid enough game, but it could have done better with a couple of more ideas.

I have to look up those last two, never heard of them.

I'm...not sure if I will try Shattered Space or not. Starfield was a big let down for me. In some ways it was impressive, but ya Idk.

FFXVI looks really cool though.

I need to beat some Resident Evil games before I consider tackling something like Silent Hill...I'm not good with scary stuff lol. You interested in Slitterhead?

That's too bad. Still might try it eventually though. Would be nice to see a big update that maybe expands on some of the stuff you mentioned.

76 honestly was fun. It looked terrible at launch, but I bought it not long ago for like...7 dollars, and I got my money's worth for sure.

Still need to play Cyberpunk DLC.

Enshrouded and Nightingale. Both well done survival games with RPG elements.

I started Enshrouded with a coworker. It was fun, and Nightingale looks cool. But I can't get into survival games if I'm solo.

It's not for everyone. It's grindy, repetitive, lots of downtime while you travel between zones and continents, very little in the way of convenience or streamlining - a quest might be handed in in Thousand Needles, then you're told to take a 10-minute trip to speak to a guy in Stranglethorn, who then says "thanks" and sends you on another 10-minute trip back to Thousand Needles - that kind of thing.

But I find that part of it's charm - or at least part of the old game's (Classic Era) charm.

The more modern retail client stripped all that out and made levelling super-fast, super-easy and super convenience, and removed all the small RPG touches from the game. I hate it and have no interest in playing the modern version.

Phantom Liberty was excellent.

As for me, I've largely wrapped up an Inquisition playthrough and am Back in Rogue Trader because of the new DLC. Its good enough (so far) to warrant a new playthrough.

If I manage to get the time, I'll try and fit in the new Starfield and My Time At Sandrock DLCs before Veilguard.

i will be trying to progress more in Sekiro. I still need to finish the Elden Ring DLC too. I have also been playing Greedfall 2 early access which I enjoyed but now it needs more content. I might play Inquisition again just for my Solas romance and Trespasser DLC before this game comes out. I have a huge backlog of games I could play before this comes out to at least get some of them finished.

Greedfall 2 looks cool. I know it's pretty divided over there as well, due to the combat changes. But personally I like the look of it a lot.

Enjoy the Elden Ring DLC. Make sure you look for scadu tree fragments. Tons of people complained about the DLC being too hard, and it was because they weren't grabbing those. There was another upgrade item too I think...I forget the name of it though.

the Greedfall 2 combat is a lot like dragon age origins combat. you can control ever companion in combat. For me it was fun early access. I will play more when next update drops soon.
As far as the Elden Ring DLC I have been collecting those scadu fragments. the other thing is ashes to collect i believe. I been collecting those too. The DLC is definitely harder than the main game but I was enjoying it.
