If you like competitive fighting games, play them early on release. Its when ranked mode really does feel wild. It balances out as the game ages but those early rank battles are an absolute blast. Plus the game looks incredible and always has an absolute banger of a soundtrack.
I’ve been playing Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew and have been having a blast so far. It’s a little like a cross between a MOBA style game and Metal Gear set in the Caribbean and you basically play as the undead Barbarossa pirates as they quietly murder their way through a mission.
It’s the same with lifestyle and politics. The “woke” people I know that talk about anti capitalist ideology but then buy the dumbest novelty shit and junk food you can imagine, not as a need but as a want. Shit, I had “woke” person whole heartedly defend marvel superhero movies as if it was a fight against hunger and natural right.
When I say woke, I mean anyone that uses the term woke seriously. I do not mean actual kind hearted down to earth open-minded progressive people.
I’ve been trying to get into the Borderlands games, since surprisingly I’ve never played them (though I’ve played games that my friends have told me are “spiritual successors” to the BL games, such as Destiny). Though, I am getting stuck at the first bosses for BL1 and 2 haha.
I’m still on Nioh, but I’m almost done having only a few main missions left. I still think it’s great, but it does suffer from its blocking mechanic being so strong. While bosses are usually the best thing about soulslikes, I often find myself having only one or two fights against a boss to succeed. Once you know their entire moveset it’s really easy to execute the fight, mostly blocking and poking the boss. Dodging as a mechanic is harder to execute due to the timing required instead of just holding the block button, but it’s hardly ever required.
