Why do you hate Owen? I don't remember him being that bad.

Why do you hate Owen? I don't remember him being that bad.

Seriously though, because he just used Abby after getting that other one pregnant. Then planning on leaving the girl he got pregnant to go California. He was always moody and a big manchild.

Just finished the Island chapter. I get the feeling I am getting near the end. This game alone has made the PS5 purchase worth it. The gameplay is excellent. The ways you can tackle a group of enemies just using the environment is well done. Never been a fan of stealth but works so well in the game. Have not run into a single bug, though I am playing the game years later. Story is good, not great. Too much time trying to tug on the heartstrings.

I might do a higher difficulty run but have a backlog to get through first. One thing ND does that is annoying are the "you opened certain doors and you get locked out of backtracking." I missed out on two safes (The top of the ship and the building you have to traverse down after falling in the pool) because you open a door that can't be reopened. The game saves and there is no way to go back without restarting the chapter.

You're not as close to the end as you might think.

[BoomerSooner]

I was not expecting that. Seemed like thing were coming to a close.

I sat in the Sony Direct queue since 7am, but I was able to get the 30th Anniversary DualSense controller for my son. I was hoping to get one for myself, but they only allowed one per order. I'm back in the queue hoping they're still available when I get back in.

Edit: Got back in but wasn't allowed to place a second order.

Just made it to California. Met the new faction.

Finished the game. Even with the story gripes this was an excellent sequel. Hopefully there is a third in the works.

Now on to Days Gone. Saving GOW since it is paid for, where the others are part of the PS+ sub.

I was curious to know what you thought about the ending.

Daya Gone is an interesting game. Bend Studios is no Naughty Dog setting up a story, that opening was short and did not really say much. The game itself looks great along with the weather effects. Early on it feels like a slightly more janky TLOU with more zombies, which is fine with me. Not a fan of using the touchscreen to navigate menus, though you can use the bumpers. Just not very intuitive. Still early on, will see how it goes.

Also started the Shattered Space DLC for Starfield. Already have a glitched mission. Shelving it for a patch or two or three. My Love/Hate with Bethesda games continues on.

[BoomerSooner]

Starting to see why Days Gone had it share of critics. It gets repetitive. Plus the map is not that big and I just end up fast traveling between the three camps. Hop on bike get a bounty quest over radio. Fast travel, buy gas, do mission, rinse and repeat.

Still plan to finish the story but it is becoming a grind.

Sony had the 30th Anniversary console and controllers back in stock today at 12pm ET and I was able to finally get a 30th Anniversary controller for myself. I'll wait until Christmas to open it so my son and I can open them together.

I think I want the Pro now. I'd sell off my OG model and a Series S if I do.

PSSR seems to be the real deal and not just typical marketing BS. That alone makes the PS5 Pro much more interesting now.
