That was such a cool side mission. The "emojis", the DualSense features, the sound...I loved it!

Devs make a revolutionary fast-travel system and I don't use it because traversing the world they created is too much fun

Wow, you two have spent the weekend pretty productively I'm still only 5 hours in and spent most of it just admiring how gorgeous this game is.

Just played a series of story missions that made me go from to then to and back to Hands down, some of the most amazing gaming experiences of my life.

Teenage @Julius approves

Once. Definitely an issue for people relying on subtitles and hope they fix it soon. Now that Super Mario Bros. Wonder is out of the way, I'll put my focus on Spider-Man 2 (and Diablo IV, and Honkai: Star Rail...). Can't wait to dive back in later

100% achieved. It was ok. Uninspired and repetitive bosses, lots of filler "levels" and super easy. But I'm not playing Mario for difficulty, right? Yup, easily the best badge in the game and the only one you need to almost never lose a life.

Ah, that stupid coin... Small hint: it's very, very near after the first purple coin. Pushing pipes for the win.

Yeah, I don't think I could go back to traversal without Web Wings.

Gotta agree with @Happenstance, play them all if you got the chance. Can't wait to hear what @Julius and @Happenstance think of SM2. The first 3 hours blew me away. It's ridiculous how good this looks and how smooth it runs. So far, it's more of the same but even better.

This is insane.

People seem to love 'em. I hate 'em. You can turn off their annoying ways, though, so that's good. Completed world 3. Nintendo and uninspired + repeating bosses, name a more iconic duo (or rather trio).

Good Thanks. Will definitely post some impressions tomorrow. Nice, hope it'll arrive soon so you can play early and/or download the patch, if anything - dev said on reddit: I went digital, so my game is already updated That is a very good reason. Speaking of BG3...I still haven't continued playing. After I "had to" play Yakuza 5 I just played other stuff and keep doing so. I think I'll probably just wait until Christmas and the holidays to get back to it.

I did not. Didn't want to burn myself out I think one story line of the DLCs gets picked up in SM2, so I'll watch a recap video tomorrow. I wanted to do this anyway because I don't really remember much from Miles Morales Man, I can't wait. My day off on Friday got approved so I'm ready for a good old fashioned midnight gaming session.

My mate coming in clutch with his local store breaking the streetdate by a lot. He's also very busy with work so I took advantage and stole borrowed his stuff 4 hours in: It's pretty, it's smooth, it's Mario. So far, nothing truly special, though. The Wonder Flowers have been hit or miss. Some are cool, some are just...meh. What I like: Some levels off the beaten path are on a more difficult side, which I appreciate as all the recent Mario games have been piss easy. I actually lost 6 lives on one level If anything, this is a good time waster before Spider-Man 2 arrives

But which one? 40fps or 60fps? I'm going with the former first. While my monitor doesn't support VRR it supports 120Hz so it should be fine. But even if it's not, can't go wrong with 60fps. Aside from MJ's and Miles' stealth sections, it was sublime. I didn't even get burnt out by the open-world filler stuff. I had a blast with everything.

Noice! Not watching anything, though. Got the Platinum for Spider-Man Remastered some time ago, Spider-Man 2 is pre-loaded and ready and if everything goes well I'll get time off from work on Friday so I can play all night (or rather until I fall asleep ). Fingers crossed

I need someone to send in their 64GB Steam Deck so Valve can refurbish it and sell it to me...I have enough money in my Steam Wallet and I want to spend it

Of course, but MS has the most spending power by far and as is evident they are not afraid to use it to phase out the competition. And they will keep doing so. It's gonna be a shitshow in the next months/years.

Disco Elysium: The Final Cut Nice. Don't care about the rest, which is good

Sad day for gaming. Terrible, terrible precedent. Now MS can do literally anything with their spending power. And other big companies will follow and make acquisitions of their own.

And there it is Another 12€ are pending but should go through in the next 24 hours. Now the refurbished 64GB model just needs to be in stock again...

Even better. If my final skin sales go through I'll be sitting at 260 bucks in my Steam wallet. Having to only pay 70€ more for the device and then an additional 70-80€ for an SSD seems like a great deal for a refurbished Steam Deck I may wait for Black Friday to see if a new Deck will be on sale so I won't have to "resort" to a refurbished one.

Awesome. Sounds like it's perfect for what I'm looking for right now. Thanks
