What are you currently playing?

I can't seem to get myself to continue playing Mega Man Zero/ZX Collection.
Still almost done with Zero 2.

It feels like a chore every time I think of it.
I love side-scrolling platform games and I'm skilled enough to actually finish the first Mega Man regularly without any cheats or glitch but my nostalgia for "old style" side-scrolling games is almost gone.

I agree, especially bolded. I bought the game, but it seems like a chore. I like the game(s), but getting from a to b is... ehhh... I don't know if that's how to design a 2D Metroidvania game in Mega Man universe.

I really, really wish it wasn't a chore, I know it gets better when you progress further. Mega Man has always been about progression. But this is too slow kind of progression. Disappointing, really.

The MMZ games; especially the first one, are overly difficult. That's why they have the save states. I know could not get in to the games on GBA. Too difficult for my tastes and not worth the headache. Plus, I was more or less done with things Mega Man by that point.

It's not the difficulty that's a chore... its getting from a to b. I'm at the beginning, and I don't even know where to go, or its taking too long to get to story point b, then you have an annoying boss for an early stage of the game. I'm where I meet the mini boss, and computer gives me zero's sword in Zero 1.

Well it's all of the above for me.

RE3Make....

Why didn't they include the zombie physics of RE2Make? That made dealing with them more fun. I can't say this game feels as good or as detailed as 2 was... much iconic stuff is missing from the original that wouldn't have been any trouble to include. I was looking forward to more of the city streets and it looks like there's less of them and more interiors than anything.

Death stranding.

I'm close to finishing chapter 3. The chiral artist's daughter subplot was a pain to do. The lion BT is so far my favorite.

I don't know what I should play. It's so hard to decide, what, with there been so many games and me being stuck indoors unable to go out.

I know. Why don't I play THE WONDERFUL 101! Backers get a free steam code as an apology for the delay and I got ME CODE!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

NOW

Ahem...
....
Please excuse me. I... don't know what came over me....

 

[ef9dante_oSsshea]

Decided to revisit assassins creed origins

Which I still prefer over odyssey

That's the norm before Next Gen consoles arrive. Best way to cure this is to buy at least 1 or 2 new games between now and then.

Death Stranding-

Escorting Mama to Mountain Knot City is a bigger pain than the Chiral artist's daughter.

Im gonna see if i can just use a truck.

 

[Goldsickle]

Finally got myself to finishing Mega Man Zero 2.
Watched some playthrough videos to see how the pros do it and found out methods I never thought of.
Have a bit of desire to get better at it but I am afraid of wasting time.

Episode 6 gives you two BTs instead of one.

Not gonna lie, Sam missing Lou is adorable.

When I was younger I got ridiculously good at those games. So much so that at one point I found the difficulty boring. I was hoping that muscle memory would kick in once I started playing again but that didn't happen as smoothly as I thought it would. I remember so little of these games, I don't know what is where and how to kill it. This really is a portable game. Kinda wish I'd gotten it on the Switch instead of the PS4.

Had a quick go on Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order last night while my wife was in the bath and rather enjoyed what I managed to play.

I could finish all four Leon/Claire, A/B scenarios of RE2 without saving and get an A rank but now I'm afraid to attempt it at the present, because I might have gotten too old for that.

I was able to complete Mega Man X3 back when I was in high school but I suddenly have problems when I replayed the series on the PS2 version.

Ahhh.. PS2. Best console ever.

Assassins creed origins , gears 5 and zelda breath of the wild

 

[Goldsickle]

I started replaying Mega Man Zero 2 for Trophy hunting, but I am suddenly getting A rank completion for 6 missions in a row.
Techniques I totally didn't have in my previous playthrough are now showing up (as well as unseen boss patterns).

I guess I kinda have some "newfound" motivation to get better at the game...
But I think I'll play Zero 3 first.

Death Stranding.

I finished chapter 6 and 7. I think im halfway through the game which is great cause i have ten or so days left for Ramadan.
