This looks real interesting. I'll definitely keep an eye out for it and see what the reviews say.

Same. I enjoyed a lot of what I played but I don't get on well with metroidvanias. So I only played a couple of hours before I either got lost or died too often to a boss.

I recently got myself an Anbernic, it's the one which looks like the GBA, see through plastic and all. It's a surprisingly competent little console. It even comes preloaded with a shed load of retro games. I've been enjoying playing games from systems I missed out on growing up.

My family had about 5 of these between us by the time we started getting into lites and 3d versions. I had the original chunky boy and a 3ds. We took them on holiday and played the brain training multiplayer games. Great fun, my parents even got into them for a bit and they said off video games a long time beforehand.

That's true, fairly easily avoided by holding the up or down trigger until you've got a clear line of sight to your target before engaging autopilot.

There's a steam workshop mod which puts a checkpoint in all the temples, this let me beat it, the base game only that is, no challenge runs or secret bullshit, haven't even attempted that.

I do enjoy setting everything on fire and exploding myself though. I played a fair few hours on and off.

I did not know that. I got to the final boss then stopped cuz they kept kicking my ass.

Once you've selected your target planet on the map (or select the planet by looking at it and pressing L3) you can then autopilot to the planet with up on the d-pad (tells you top left of the screen). Landing is a bit tricky but you can definitely just slam the ship into the ground, as the loops are short it's not the end of the world if it gets beat up. Pressing square or x to activate the landing camera can help too.

Depending on what you're going for, 1 and give them a German accent. Otherwise 2.

Ooo ouch, you might beat the Helldivers 2 chap for fastest death in the thread.

Plus the lake District is like the most beautiful place in the UK so you'll have nice scenery whilst you grow weird plants.

I think you may have the fastest death in this thread. Average lifespan is what a couple minutes after launch tops?

I was playing Rogue Trader so unless I get to take over one of the PCs I'm pretty screwed. The 40k universe is not a friendly place. Even if I take over one of the party characters I'd probably still end up dead in some awful way. My character was a psycher so that's never a good idea if you want to remain demon free.

Thanks not sure if it was the dyslexia or the autocorrect which got me that time.

I think that's maybe a bit harsh compared to a lot of the games mentioned here. Witcher 1 definitely has a lot of problems compared to 2 and 3 but it had a lot going for it as well. Sure the combat was broken as hell once you got all the spinning moves and it was super sexist with the women as trading cards thing. But the story and world building were still fun and Geralt was well characterised. It's not a great game but it did well enough to get them the sequels. Definitely nowhere near the worst game I've played.

And party on dude! I came here to say this. It's such an easy tenant to live by. The world would be a better place if everyone really took it to heat.

You have made a solid impulse buy. I love my steam deck as does my wife. If you get a dock you can also use it as a regular laptop too.

Oh god the handover after your first long drive into VR is something else. Nothing felt real for me for a good few hours. Super weird experience.

Damn 1/3rd scale. So like 1-2 foot tall? Fair play. Nier Automata was one of my favourite gaming experiences, so many feels. I love the end sequence more than about any other gaming moment.
