    The Umbrella Academy

    I like the idea they are exploring with Vanya though -- that while it's tempting to keep everything repressed it only leads to horrible things when the damn finally breaks. All the characters seem to be 'levelling up' with respect to what they can do and how they apply their abilities. Well...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I don't deny their efficacy, rather I bemoan that they even need to exist at all. It's all part of the action-based MMO genre whereby you are meant to spam a bajillion abilities in a very arcade-like sequence. It's fun to do, but it has more in common with Street Fighter than it does D&D.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Rotation helpers? It always seems silly to me that a 'rotation' exists. Means that it's not really a strategy / rpg at all and more of a rhythm game with a fancy skin. I suppose its natural with the overall action-y speed of RPGs these days... Very different from the style of even Baldur's...

    Marvel's Avengers

    There's some serious bugs now with outfits. I used the Fabrication Machine to decry..err decipher some patterns and instead of adding those new outfits it actually deleted ones I already had...

    Marvel's Avengers

    The weekly challenge did not reset. Shows the same as before and complete despite the clock resetting to 7 days (well 6d 18h right now)

    Marvel's Avengers

    Echo the opinion on Pym gear. Having the baddies get shrunk is soooo satisfying and they hit like wet noodles as little bitty guys.

    Marvel's Avengers

    So this is weird. Finished both weekly and daily quests on Ms. Marvel and still only showing 14 challenge points total. From these alone there should be 28 (11 each for the two weeklies and 3 each for the dailies) but I've also completed the daily quests on her on several days. This is not on...

    The Umbrella Academy

    Nice that the finally clarified that Diego is a telekinetic...he just hasn't really exercised his power over anything but the knives. Had a chuckle at the Sparrow academy though. Number 5 is really amazing. They really did a smart job with casting that role.

    There was a graphics glitch involving hair on the Xbox that is now fixed as of this mornings patch. No idea what else there was but I assume it's similar graphics and stability stuff

    Marvel's Avengers

    Yeah the various gear and ability synergy builds are starting to gel for me. Like Cap can go super offensive with brawling or go ranged combat with shield tossing and Steamroller OR you can use Commanders Call and go super tanky by specializing in resilience and such. Make sure to hover over...

    Marvel's Avengers

    Finished the campaign and opened up the Initiative and good grief there is a LOT to do. If they make regular new characters / content updates this could really be the looter/shooter MMO that Destiny and the Division tried to be. Beating up AIM with buddies is just so damn satisfying .

    Marvel's Avengers

    So problem with the cosmetic scheme is that most of the costumes I'd want (Makeshift Ironman, Weapon-X Cap, Hello my name is Blake Thor) are ones you get just doing the playthrough.

    The anthill vendor on the Chimera is just the Roy guy who is next to the cosmetic vendor in the Commons area

    Marvel's Avengers

    Note that each character has their own Daily and Weekly missions so make sure you switch it up for the short strikes in order to get them all done.

    Marvel's Avengers

    I'm having fun with it. The single player experience is a fun story so far and the multiplayer is divorced from it in a way that people who don't want to play as Kamala Khan don't have to go through the story.

    New World

    This is a fundamental issue with the stat scaling in the game. Right now it's an IQ check to make sure you only put points into the one stat that can improve your primary mode of attack OR choose to go the Con route for health. They should consider some sort of point-buy system whereby you...

    Life Staff is especially terrible. It seems as though most elites and anyone you might actually want to hurt has an Elemental armor at least 4x as big as their physical armor. Fire staff has more kick and a larger hit box plus the ability to slow down people who get hit. Life Staff can, in...

    New World

    So different people have different starting areas and its apparently locked to your account which one you get. My buddy always starts at Monarch's Bluff and I always start at First Light and so trying to adventure together is pretty much impossible until the mid teens when you can readily make...

    The game does do exploraholic well. Went out of town to gather hemp and noticed I was close to a faction objective so hit that up and then I was nearish to another one and then I was over by the mine so I might as well get some iron and silver for gemstones while I'm at it and then... Ended...

    Wasteland 3

    I spent like 30 mins making my characters and then after doing the intro bit spent another 45 mins REMAKING my characters... On a related sidenote the faces they have are terrible.

    New World

    Part of this is the population-wave effect as the overall areas are camped to the point of turning them into full themepark mode. It may also be due to some tweaks that were made as I am genuinely finding it easier to solo content even without anyone nearby. In the past I felt like 'oh, I am...

    Hatchets are insanely overpowered. Hit fast and so stagger enemies plus have a health regen on hit aspect.

    Sheesh. We just have problems like trying to distract the lawful good monk while the death priest offs the cook because she knew too much.

    Having had a mixed bag using Fire and Life staves the first time around I decided to go melee this time and have been leveling up Warhammer. I do a LOT more damage with a warhammer than I do with balls of fire, but the warhammer abilities are complete garbage. I could see where they might be...

    I have raised my fist shouting at the heavens a few times due to that damn button. Especially as we are now in an age when some things do indeed just suddenly pop up one day as a 'surprise' release.

    Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)

    I agree that Maxwell Lord loses a lot of the impact by not having him as the benevolent support system beforehand. Well that and the requirement that Diana remain essentially hidden the whole film so as not to leave too much of a fingerprint on history.

    Marvel's Avengers

    What would you want out of a 'fun' version then? Because running/flying around as superheroes using powers and beating up bad guys is what I was looking for out of this. Perhaps it's just the nature of such a PVE focused 'dungeon crawl'? I know I see things like Fortnite or Apex Legends and...

    Suicide Squad... the next "Arkham" game

    Given the setting I am guessing that this takes place after their failed Superman game. Would be an interesting twist in that the story 'happened' even though they never finished the game.

    Vampire the Masquerade - Bloodlines sequel? Remake?

    Remember that publishers are made up of people who are not themselves gamers or even people who like the idea of games. They just operate as if they were marketing fabric softener or a lawnmower.

    Project Power (2020)

    Push was so damn good. I came to it late after it was already on DVD and have been kicking myself since it's completely my cup of tea but my hard earned $ did not support it when it was needed.

    How in the hell could they justify such a price point even for the "enthusiast" consumer? Are we just moving to a Methuselah style economy ala Takashi Kovacs?

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    So this is 100% in continuity and in cahoots with the current "Descent into Avernus" storyline in D&D proper. Wizards has done an excellent job of keeping brand continuity across various products.

    Marvel's Avengers

    The more I play this the more I like it. Simple things like being able to summon the Hulk buster armor and have someone else in the party use it as well as all the little touches in the game that set up each character as distinct really help. It feels like Destiny if Destiny had actual...

    Marvel's Avengers

    I'm finding it quite enjoyable and could see it being a blast with friends. Playing Iron Man is pretty much Anthem without the stupid limit on flight time. I think of the available characters Widow is my least favorite, will be interesting to see how many heroes they eventually add.
