I finally 100% Arkham Knight after 9 years, completing all the Community Challenges trophies, including Requiem for a Killer challenge (the one where you have to do a 400±combo in a endless combat challenge to reach and defeat the secret boss).
Think I’m gonna install Red Dead Redemption 2 next. Finished RDR for the first time last year and wanna finish the sequel, which I started a few years back on the PS4 but dropped.
I grinded the endgame for the trophies. Thank god there are 12 different characters to cycle through or I’d have died of boredom. But the campaigns were fun, so I got my 5$ worth.
I assumed you are on PC, oops 😅 both Spider-Man games are available there
You’re better off playing the two Spider-Man games, seriously, Spider-Man in this game sucks
Star-Lord plays like a third-person shooter, with special abilities. In battle, the other Guardians auto-battle, but you can issue commands to them to activate special skills. It’s more strategic in that nature.
In exploration and story, there are also decision-making moments that lightly alter the game.
Unlikely, given that Crystal Dynamics was sold by Square Enix to Embracer Group last year and had been the publisher since. I do understand the confusion: People being genuinely interested in something without monetary incentive? Unheard of.
GotG plays completely differently. You control Star-Lord, and as leader of the Guardians, issue commands to the others. It’s akin to a team-based RPG (I made the comparison in another comment, think FFXV). It has role-playing element in storytelling, the level are well-designed corridors instead of Avengers’ semi-open playbox. Coming out near and from the same publisher as Avengers really hampered GotG’s perception but it is a worthy experience.
Best part is that those additions are free so you cost nothing
GotG and its combat system gives me the same feeling as FF15. For a party gameplay, it’s a good system to develop the bonds between characters.
It’s fully playable offline now. All cosmetics DLC are unlocked from the start as well.
I tried the Open Beta. It was fine but not enough to make me fork over cash.
Well, it’s why we’re here anyway, to enjoy fully updated game at a fraction of the cost 🤣
Extra: Marvel’s Avengers lack of success led to less than stellar initial reception to another Marvel game of Square Enix, Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy (2021). The devs had to spend time before release clarifying that GotG is purely single-player, with no microtransaction whatsoever.
GotG is a fantastic game that was inspired by the MCU but still offers a distinct experience due to its heavy comic roots (Drax the Destroyer instead of Drax the Dadjoke, for example). If you want a more focused Marvel experience, GotG is the game for you.
PS5 gives you PS5+PS4 games, it’s new and will get further support. Switch gives you access to many of the Nintendo library. If you can entertain modding, many old consoles are good multi-platform machines. PS3 for PS1-3 games, PS Vita for many handheld systems, 3DS for the DS library. Modded Switch is a good system for emulation as well, although I’m not familiar with its scene
The Wii has Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2.
There hasn’t been a Super Mario Galaxy anywhere else besides the Wii.
The Wii is awesome.
