    Fae tactics Mirror’s Edge catalyst Star Wars Squadrons

    I’ll get to them eventually, Trails into Reverie’s postgame is taking way longer than I thought.

    Monster hunter : Rise, I don’t know, just didn’t like it as much as I thought I would. I was looking for something like hack n slash RPG like God of War but the whole “anime-like” genre isn’t for me.

      I am not into anime at all, nor am I into the anime/anime-like games. They just don’t do it for me. However, monster hunter is well worth a go, and both World and Rise are very much westernised in terms of gameplay.

      That being said, the monster hunter games are not known for being easy (although I’d say Rise is the easiest to get into, as well as in terms of difficulty). They’re pretty much the original Souls games and share more similarities with those than any God of War title. All about rewarding boss battles where you visibly weaken the monsters as the fight goes on. The monsters are hard hitting, requiring well timed dodges, and the gameplay loop is addictive.

      The MH games are known for being slow starters but I’d urge you to stick it out. You’ll eventually get to a wall (almost insurmountable monster) but once you learn how to adapt and overcome it, there’s a good chance you’ll be hooked.

      They’re one of the few games where it’s more your skill that improves, as opposed to your character just levelling up and the game becoming easy.

      That said, if you want an in-depth story, you’re unlikely to find one since they’re hardly the focus.

    Double Dragon
    Found out after purchasing that it’s local co-op only. No online co-op. Bummer.

      One of the most satisfying 2d platformer to control. The movement, dash, and even hit box for obstacles is just so fine tuned. I would argue it has a smoother, more better control than Super Meatboy.

      This is my favorite game of all time. Such a touching story, tied to a great gameplay and an inspiring soundtrack. This game really is a gem and I can’t recommend it enough to gamers

    Spider-Man Miles Morales. Hoping it scratches the itch enough to hold off buying a PS5 I don’t need.

    I bought the 512gb lcd deck and a few games that I look forward to playing on the deck that my laptop can’t keep up with (forza 4, hotwheels unleashed).
