Eastward (from the Stardew valley people) is out and it looks pretty tempting

False. FAQ for the game says its a chinese based indie company.

Oh, I saw chucklefish and I thought that was the same people.

Nah, Chucklefish is just a publisher. Stardew Valley was made by a guy in the US (Concerned Ape). Eric Barone is his name, I think.

Well that's interesting, thanks for the info

Been playing Hell Let Loose on PC last few nights. Love that ****.

Heck yeah, got my key for an advanced alpha for a game called Synced Off Planet. I also received two extra keys if anyone would be interested. Since it is an advanced alpha there is a NDA that you can't stream, or record any content and share it.

Is this like a future-future The Division? Looks pretty sweet.

Not surprised that BF 2042 was delayed a month or so, since we haven't had any live recent multiplayer footage and next to no news with a month before early access. Hopefully, they'll get it right at launch.

Anyone play Deathloop? Looks like it may be GOTY.

Anything EA related, I have very low hopes for once it's been delayed. I'm expecting a shitty shitty launch. All BF launches are rocky, but they ain't fixing anything of consequence in 3 weeks.

I was interested in it, but saw it's a FPS... so it's a no go from me.

That video didn't quite have all the info as one of the other ones I watched. There are three game modes, PvP, PvE, and a PvPvE.
Per their twitter:

The Nano Rise: SYNCED’s dedicated PvE mode. Teams of 3 will fight Nanos that scale in difficulty with each round. Spawn in, loot and shoot, then return to base. Boss fight involved at the end the rounds.

Shuttle Rush: Multiple shuttles means multiple ways to win! Earn points in the Shuttle Rush by killing mobs, other players, and boarding shuttles. The team with the most points at the end of the match wins! 3 rounds. First round has 3 ships to capture, second has 2 ships, and last round has 1 ship.

The Off-Planet:SYNCED's core PVP experience. Only one team can capture the final shuttle off the planet. The first team to sync with the shuttle at the end of the game has to hold it for a set amount of time in order to successfully escape. Not sure how many teams.

I will say their website is not good. No direct place to just go read about the game, had to scroll through their tweets.

Finished up Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. IMO, this is a really great game. If you like Castlevania games in the vein of Symphony of the Night, you will like this game. I really hope more such games are forthcoming from Koji Igarashi, because I'll take as many as he can make.

@count2infinity: Are you looking for a PS5 or XSX? If the latter, this may be of interest to you:

Ps5. I’ve been an Xbox guy forever, but most of my video game buds are moving to the ps5.

Ah, well carry on then... PS5 scum.

It feels like years since the last AAA game was released.

CyberPunk is about it and it flopped hard.

I saw some rumor on Reddit the other day that Microsoft was going to be making some sort of earth shattering announcement that would rock gaming. Some of the comments were hilarious, like then announcing that they’re buying themselves for $20bn.

That was a good one. I believe a sequel is in the works as well.

Cyberpunk 2077 has shipped 15 million units/downloads and generated over $300 million in profit for CDPR. It was the second-best selling game (physical media) of 2020 despite being released in December.

I should flop so hard.

RE Village and Ratchet & Clank came out this spring, I'd rank those as trip-A. And there's a new Halo title coming in a couple months iirc.

I’ve played video games less this year than I ever have. Got a Ps5 and played nothing but ps4 games.

Complete opposite for me. I haven't played on my XSX in weeks now after finishing Mass Effect, and that's only because I'm giving myself some time to forget parts of it so that I can play through the entire series again. Can't **** wait.
