https://www.eurogamer.net/dont-nod-announces-release-date-of-harmony-the-fall-of-reverie Out 8th June on PC and Switch then two weeks later on the other consoles. Looks weird as hell but could be interesting I guess.

Wow that looks shockingly cheap.

66% on Opencritic so far after 57 reviews, looks like I made a good counterpick! A lot of places are running “reviews-in-progress” though, so the score might fluctuate a little bit.

Bump. I played the first level of this. Been years since I played a platformer. I got the four KONG letters but only 4/9 puzzle pieces. I don’t think I’m gonna try and 100% it but hopefully I can play through it by the end of next week.

Unfortunately, it looks like I’m going to have to park this indefinitely. I can’t keep playing it with the game crashing so frequently. Considering I played a string of PC games without problem before Divinity, I’m guessing the problem is connected to the game, although I’m not exactly sure. It seems like it might be connected to my graphics card. Either way, I have a huge chunk of the game left and I’d rather enjoy it without crashes, whenever I have the chance. So that means I’ll have to play something else during my week off.

Closing in on 60 hours now. The landmass I’m on now is large, without being overwhelming. I haven’t done too much combat, I’ve mostly been exploring the map, unlocking waypoints and opening a lot of quests. My team is currently level 11. If anything, I’ve been battling with the constant crashes. It seems to be some kind of Direct X issue, I don’t know. It’s certainly dampening my enjoyment of the game. But I have the whole week off because it’s Golden Week, so I can hammer the game quite hard for the next seven days. Either way, two weeks to go until Tears of the Kingdom so I’ll be sticking with this until then. Right now, it’s probably sitting on an 8/10.

Unlocked my second source ability now and I’ve received what is probably going to be my main over-arching quest for the remainder of the game. Also wrapped up most of the exploring and talking in Driftwood so I’m ready to set out on some adventures.

Cuphead Super Deluxe Japan limited edition. The soundtrack artwork is by Square’s lead artist from FFI to VI.

The quest to sneak Higba out of Driftwood without being seen by the magisters is brutal, just brutal. But in the course of trying it I’ve tried some cool stuff to mess with the patrolling magisters. You can place objects in their way like barrels to stop them moving. You can also block them with party members. Actually, I think I’ve figured out as I’m typing this how I’m going to do it…

I’ll check it out for sure. A friend of mine who almost never plays games pumped like 80 hours into that Pathfinder game.

I haven’t had any massive difficulty so far, I can’t even remember the last time I lost or reset a fight. I feel like it happened a bit more early on in the game though. I actually think the well balanced difficulty is one of the strengths of the game. Battles are never boring. As much as I enjoyed the first game and am enjoying the second game though, I do feel they are over-rated. Certainly not 10/10 classics like Baldur’s Gate 1 or 2 (like you, games I’ve also played multiple times) or The Witcher 3. I’m not sure if they elevate themselves above Pillars either. My opinion might change though.
-
Nope. I doubt I was even close to the end. It would be interesting to load that save file up now though! I had the big fight on the ship, yeah, Lady Vengeance. Not sure about caves. I’ve already been through a lot of caves…
-
The younger brother has passed the older brother. I’ve arrived at the village of Driftwood and am firmly on to the second act of the game now. One thing I will say is that the game does crash regularly. It crashed twice today, one requiring a hard reset. It’s crashed at least 5-10 times total.

Interesting interview with the developer: https://www.pcgamer.com/hyper-light-breaker-creator-on-reimagining-the-series-as-a-3d-roguelike-i-dont-think-that-you-could-really-release-drifter-today-and-get-the-same-sort-of-success/

Well it’s certainly very boombastic. It seems like they’re shooting for the moon with this one.

One more, musicals aren’t really my thing but this looks ambitious and original enough to be interesting. https://www.gematsu.com/2023/04/stray-gods-the-roleplaying-musical-launches-august-3 From the lead writer of Dragon Age, if that adds any clout.

This looks quite cool. https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/beautiful-alice-in-wonderland-inspired-slasher-ravenlok-is-coming-to-pc-and-game-pass-in-may Like a mix of Alice in Wonderland and Dark Souls.

Around 30 hours in now, my team just hit level 8. Close to wrapping up everything on the first island. At least, the stuff that I’ve found. The game is so full of secrets that I’ve likely missed stuff. I’ve given most of my characters an additional magic specialization in addition to their main combat class.
-
Damn, Squall and Rinoa got old looking.

https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/a-decade-after-its-announcement-genre-bending-defenders-quest-2-returns Out this year.

Starting to feel this sink its hooks into me now. My characters (same team) are at level 4, almost level 5, and have much better gear. I like how characters are not tied down to classes and you can mold them into whatever you want them to be.
