Pet peeves: The return (Part 3)

Same here. 40 euros is still too much so I’m a little on the hesitant side, I’m sure the product is top quality but I can’t blow that level of money right now. An instant buy would have to be between 30-35 euros

Imo not many games even deserve to cost upwards of £30 unless they’re like 20+ hours of content and the gameplay is absolutely solid. Most can safely wait either until seasonal sales or their cost goes down after a few months.

As i have said before; the only AAA title i have bought in quite some time for full price is Elden Ring.

A game I currently have 55 hours in and still nowhere near the end (I blame alting)

Recently grabbed Lego Marvel Superheroes 2 for only £10 and it’s season pass for £3. 85% off on the Eshop! Even if the spiderman swinging feels jank AF it’s worth it.

Unfortunately the world we live in.

I don’t mind paying that 30 euros for a AA game even if it’s just 15 hours of content… I mean, I bought Spiritfarer on a sales and the game (at least narratively) is well worth the original price tag after 8 enjoyable hours so far.

But yeah, I’d rather wait until a game sunks to a dirt cheap price between 30-40 euros depending or even lower. I rarely buy games on release and the last one I did this year is Stray, I think you’d like it Cro, cat in a Cyberpunk like universe trying to make it back home and it’s made I believe by those same guys who made Journey, Outer Wilds, Pathless and Flower… So it’s more about the experience more like. Very rare again that I buy on release, I don’t regret Pathfinder WotR though, I just regret the bugs but I had been warned heh.

Been highly enjoying the Starcraft 2 co-op missions, but especially because my current choice of commander is Stukov, a Zerg-infested human with an entire army of infested humans

and a big chunk of the missions are ‘oh no, The Infested are invading’ and it is never not funny to defeat them by throwing wave after wave of infested at them

5 steps ahead of you!

My friend bought it for me for my birthday.

(looking forward to it)

Also; Double Reduvia is pretty fun ATM.

Like the weapon art a lot too.

Poor man, feels bad to see him like that.

He’s having a great time - free will, immortality, cool hat…

In other words, he’s Xykon?

A cool hat really is the icing on the cake of a life lived well.

I miss playing him in HotS
His voice lines are so good and you can smack people around for getting too close

Imagine have an arm like that, SLIMEY!

which are sadly non-existant with nintendo games. even so i never regretted the price i paid (and shall pay) for three houses and three hopes

Breath of the Wild was excellent and well worth the price I paid for both the game and the Switch itself.

Jailer vs. Tyrande, the cutscene that never was (he’s choking her to show that it does work, just not when you try it on Sylvanas).

yeah he’ll choke her out too, it’s gonna be a thing

As a follow-up to this Tyrande/Shandris cutscene that never was.
