    Trying to keep away from sci Fi shooters so I don’t burn out on that style. Been grinding through the post game of Death Stranding, exploring through Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, just doing some real long form chill out stuff that’ll eat up that time

    I tried Armored Core 6, but evidently I suck. I can’t even get by the first boss (helicopter)…. Ugh. I guess I will wait until next week for Starfield.

      Use your meele. I had trouble with it too until I experimented with fighting styles. You need to close the gap quickly, I used the forward launch thing, then meele him which almost completely breaks his shield, then you have 5 seconds or so to get as much damage on him until his shields come back. Rinse and repeat. Keep distance and hide while your abilities reload and keep an eye on your energy, if it depletes, you’re screwed. Also don’t forget you have three med packs.

        I will try that! I also should change the key bindings. On Xbox, the med pack is up on the direction pad and I have to look to use it. I have waited too long a couple times.

    Not the same style but Baldur’s Gate 3 has had me fixed since it released, and honestly I’m worried about Starfield coming out and how the eff I’m gonna finish either of them at any point before my ADHD brain burns out

    No man’s sky got a big updated a few days ago. (But you need to finish the first questline first) Even without the update this game is huge and worth a revisite after starfield… And it’s in the game pass too

    I beat final fantasy 16 last week and liked it so much I started a fresh play through. It should hold me over until starfield time!

    I wanted a game I would be sure to be over once Starfield hits, so I’ve chosen Quake 2 remastered.

    It’s really good, finished all missions in about 15 hours , you should all play it, especially the new mission!

    Blasphemous 2 just came out on Thursday and is a fantastic metroidvania, that kept me entertained for most of the weekend. That’s a solid 17-20 hour experience.

    Armored core 6 is the next endeavor, but I’m having a tough time with the final boss of the first chapter (I’ve heard it’s the first real skill check - so I guess I need to git good).

    Baldur’s gate 3 is dropping on PS5 soon, so I’ll be getting that to play couch co-op.

    We’re in such a glut of good games for the latter half of the year, but betweens bg3 and starfield it feels like the backlog will start and up waiting a bit

    I’ve been playing fo4 and Fo76. It’s actually quite interesting seeing the graphical jump between them, makes me hopeful Starfield will look good and have good enough gunplay
