There's really not much new in this space aside from the above. I'd probably say Remnant 2 which is a cross between The Division and Bloodborne. 

I'm glad to see some of you are having fun with it.  I'm interested, but I just can't warrant dropping that much money on another live service game.  I wish gamepass and ubisoft+ were linked.  

Agree with you on the combat.  It didn't feel great at all, but serviceable to what you had to do.  I'm looking forward to the next entry.  I also wouldn't mind seeing a Control sequel.

Control 2 is already in the works!

Apparently ship boarding is also a cutscene which bloody tragic! You can do this in every game of this nature including Assassin's Creed Black Flag.

Episode 83 is LIVE!!  We talk about a recent survey of development studios revealing they are mostly working on live service games.  We also touch on the new suicide squad game among other things.
 
 

Episode 84 is LIVE!  We talk about Helldivers 2, The Skull & Bones demo, and game pricing vs value.  Check it out!!
 
 

Couple more new ones this week.  Episode 81 and our episode from last Wednesday are both LIVE.  In 81, we talked about the Ubisoft execs' recent comments about consumers "getting comfortable not owning games" and the bonus episode started on why I prefer the @d Mario games over 3D ones, which evolved into a talk about platformers.
 
 

Some more snaps from my Alan Wake 2 playthrough, getting towards the end now …

A couple of snaps from Silent Hill: The Short Message

So, a few from my latest JRPG, I am quite enjoying the art style of this one albeit the game feels like it might be a bit short -
 
 

If this happens then it’ll be the final nail in the coffin for Microsoft surely in competition terms? It would destroy the entire point of owning an Xbox and the game pass on its own is just not sustainable or attractive enough plus the machines are technically inferior. The fact this has even been considered is just insane and it will kill any future credibility they have with ‘exclusives’. They were already desperate enough as it is with such few options. Makes you wonder if they will abandon consoles in the future and just do streaming as previously suggested. This situation is very similar to the Sega saga. The Bethesda acquisition has been a disaster so far and the Activision takeover isn’t going to change anything other than where the profits are diverted. Microsoft are incredibly boxed in right now and running out of options.

Yeah it definitely looks more authentic than I was expecting and doesn't drift away from the originals too much visually or mechanically. I definitely may grab it when I get a chance. 

You can switch between the new and classic graphics so hopefully the latter will have modern support for higher resolutions too. Looks more like AI upscaled than a proper remaster I must admit although I don't mind that they haven't drifted too far from the aesthetics and style. Not sure how the gameplay will hold up overall though
 

This came out of nowhere! Coming to all systems including the Switch next February. Wont be an easy game to modernise but for £25 it could be a great package that offers 30+ hours of gameplay.

Anyone still involved in this? In the last week or so, viewership has dropped below Diablo 2 and 3 to between 400-1300, plus several popular Diablo-focused content creators have not only stopped playing this game, but have also seemingly departed the series. Haven't been following much since post-launch but it seems things have gone from bad to worse and Blizzard has been making some rather bizarre and unworkable design choices. I was looking to jump into the game at some stage but it does seem in a really bad place right now and I'm not sure if they will be able to turn it around. 

I quite like the look of this and may grab it sometime. Had some early woes and the microtransaction controversy but seems to have come through with solid and enjoyable gameplay.

Loves the first game. This is infinitely better. A proper horde mode esque game with some tactics built into the higher level difficulties. 
 
Air support feeling is amazing when it hits the enemies, also pretty funny when it's a bit too much danger close and wipes out your entire squad!!
 
Difficulties make a massive difference too. Nice and casual at lower levels and properly intense at the higher end. A question of picking your poison relating to what you want to get out of it.
 
Best game I've played in ages and is most defo going to get me back online!!

Well, I've picked it up off Amazon so will be here in a few days. It keeps coming on my feed and the small snippets of videos look truly awesome. Hopefully we'll plan a few events on FG and get a few squads going 👊
