Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves (2023)

Grandia (PC). Always wanted to play this one as it was the only one in the series I hadn't played and fans generally hyped it up as the best of the series. However in my opinion both 2 & 3 are superior in various ways.

Community Update #4 The fourth Community Update is available! It brings both major and minor changes to the User Interface to make the game experience as pleasant as possible. Improvements Weapon and crystal stats are now compared in the corresponding menus. For better readability, selected and unselected weapons are automatically displayed at their maximum level potential. Hints to the location of materials for new weapons are now displayed on the recipes at the various crafting tables. The overall design and feel of the team's energy bar has been updated to be more consistent with the universe. Patch Note The project has been updated from Unity 2019.4.2 to Unity 2021.3.21, a performance gain can be noticed. You can now enable auto-battle mod by default in the "Game Settings" tab. Fixed a bug that impacted the minimap display in Herelsor City. Fixed the UI of selling items x10 at merchants. Added signboard Nekaroo animation to all signboards in the Solna Plain. What's Next? Since last November we have improved, reviewed and corrected many elements through the New Game + and the four Community Updates. The rhythm of the next updates will now be less regular. The next one, scheduled for June, will be a major content-rich update that will renew the game's narrative flow. We are currently focusing on revamping the Lighthouse dungeon (available during Early Access) and preparing to release all updates on all platforms (consoles included). Although, we are targeting Q3 2023 for a release on all platforms, we hope to be able to announce a precise release date in the coming weeks. In parallel to these many works, there are many surprises to come. We look forward to sharing them with you!

Resident Evil 4 Remake (PC). Excellent game. Played on near max settings and got great performance. Well optimized. I took my time with it too so final play time was 17 hours. People could definitely get it done much faster though but I wasn't in a hurry and kept backtracking for missed treasure and doing the sidequests, etc.

Absinthia is a turn-based RPG that explores themes of love, loss, betrayal and acceptance as four close friends fight to protect their home. Story The Ambrose Isles are home to many things: A pirate hideout, a treacherous swamp, an abandoned desert kingdom… But for those who prefer a danger-free life, Katti Town is the place to be. One night, Katti Town found itself besieged by a horde of shadowy minions and their leader, Lilith. But hope was not lost–before Lilith could claim victory, a traveling knight named Freya appeared and drove back Lilith`s forces with ease. Now known as the Hero of Katti Town, Freya took three villagers under her wing: Sera, a warrior-in-training; Thomas, an apprentice mage; and his partner, the mischievous thief Jake. Together, they train to protect Katti Town and the Ambrose Isles. But one question remains on everyone’s minds: Why is Lilith attacking the isles to begin with… And who is Freya? Features Traditional turn-based JRPG system featuring a regenerating MP system for fast-paced combat, powerful team-based attacks and no random encounters! Difficulty options for those who seek challenge–or only want to focus on the story. Just the right length: Average playtime should clock between 10-12 hours with plenty of optional content, perfect for folks who don`t have time to sit through 40 hours of filler.

Chained Echoes (PC) is the latest game to add to my completion list. I heard the dev is still going to update it further with a New Game+ and such later, so I'll see how that goes I suppose.

Demo 2.0 Since launching the demo in October 2022, we received a tremendous amount of support and critiques from all across the spectrum. I wanted to personally thank everyone who's played the game thus far - it truly means the world to us! Over the past months, Cameron and I dug into all the feedback, and rebalanced many aspects of the gameplay experience itself. In some cases, we added entire new systems (such as swimming & fishing). The demo will still contain the game's first chapter, but with some significant overhaul & refinement. I believe this version represents a more accurate picture of what the final game might feel like! A list of changes Added GUIDE Menu: A sub-menu allowing the player to check the map, view quests, enemy details, game mechanics, and more. Swimming: Certain bodies of water are now traversable! The player can also dive to reach hidden gold, chests or underwater switches! Active vs Wait Modes: The player can now CHOOSE if they want battles to run on ACTIVE mode (a FF7 style ATB), vs WAIT (enemies won't attack continuously until the player chooses). This can be changed at any time in the menu. Maiden Statues Rebalanced: Statues will now only give a GODDESS TEAR item if the game is running on Story Mode. Otherwise, they only offer a single-use heal. Fishing: Use your fishing rod + lure at certain locations throughout the game! Over 15 unique fish to catch! Item Messages: The "Item Found" message boxes now will show a small visual icon of each item once it's been obtained! Golden Chests: New varieties of treasure. Chests will look visually distinct if they contain Gear/Equipment. Stats Rebalanced: Some enemies adjusted according to player feedback. New locations: Chapter 1 has been greatly expanded with over 4 new optional areas & hidden treasures. Graphical Bugs: Minor visual bugs fixed.

People kept rumoring that RE5 Remake would happen after RE4 Remake, although most seem to want a Code Veronica Remake far more... Seems like Capcom is putting to rest whether or not an RE5 Remake is even a question currently by suddenly updating the existing Resident Evil 5 game on Steam. Here is the Patch Notes: - Removed Games for Windows Live support. - Will support local split screen co-op. - Some other minor bug fixes.

Update came to Pokemon Scarlet & Violet today along with some costume dlc and an announcement of two expansion packs coming later this year in Fall and Winter. With this update, we have added new features, new functionality for Pokémon Boxes, and fixes for bugs that affected game progress, among other updates. We will continue to take your feedback very seriously and take measures to improve your gameplay experience

Summary Beloved Rapture is story-heavy RPG inspired by the SNES-era. A game exploring trauma, mysticism, friendship, and LGBT themes. The narrative takes place amidst an epic conflict, yet the interpersonal stories take center stage. Characters challenge not only the next looming dungeon boss—but themselves, and their own demons. Plot Johan, an introverted young man from the countryside, finds himself thrown into a conflict beyond his comprehension. The Aeons—an enigmatic religious faction—move ever-closer to his hometown. Now faced with a threat to his once-elysian way of life, Johan must contemplate the role he is destined to play in their escalating conflict. At his side are Aiden, the mysterious son of a Shrine caretaker, who has trained since childhood in the mystic arts; and Crysta, a runaway noblewoman intent on ending the war before it reaches her family. Through their travels, Johan is intrigued by Aiden's increasing fascination with him, as well as the appearance of Draco, an Aeon soldier with a connection to his own mother. Features Turn-based combat with a focus on the challenge! Six total playable characters, each with unique stats & skills. NO random encounters, and no forced grinding!
