The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim


Choices choices!

130+ hours into Starfield and for sure it’s my least fave Bethesda game in my steam library.

I’m a huge Bethesda fan and a few weeks ago I started a new Fallout 4 playthrough. As soon as I heard that soundtrack on the main menu I was in the zone, then tuning into pip-boy radio just hooked me right back into the world once more.

I also just re-installed Skyrim too, and in the past few days playing Skyrim again has been such a wakeup call to everything Starfield does wrong, primarily a lack of immersion due to the insane amount of loading screens and lack of reward for exploration, not to mention copy paste dungeons which I’ve never experienced in Skyrim in all my years playing it.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

Playing The Witcher again, forgotten how beautiful this game is.

I’ve never been able to play more than one game at the same time, but when Diablo IV ran dry of end game content I picked up Starfield, then when I ran out of content in Starfield I started to pick up Diablo Immortal again. At the same time I did another playthrough of Fallout 4 (which was great!).

I played through the new Cyberpunk DLC (loved it) and I also installed Skyrim again! I’ve installed an immersive collection for Skyrim which includes over 400 mods (installs them all at the press of a button!) and I’m really enjoying that too. I’ve also re-installed The Witcher which is looking better than ever. Turns out the devs have updated the game with community created mods (so awesome!), a new photo mode and new gear from the Netflix series.

It’s an insanely good time for gamers, we’re totally spoilt for choice!

Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty

I just finished my playthrough of Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty (DLC). The perfect game to push my new PC. I disliked the game at launch 3 years ago so I wasn’t expecting much more than really pretty graphics, but damn the ending got me. I thought the ending of Cyberpunk was pretty depressing 3 years ago, but the new alternate ending in this DLC takes it to another level. I loved it.

4 Eyes

Old man. Going blind.

Can’t read shit up close but also starting to have some short sightedness so I got a new pair of prescription glasses. Inspired by Lennon, made by Valentino. They’re light, comfy and best of all they’re transition lenses!

Starfield

120 hours in.

Lore wise I think the ending is the best part of the game as it had me thinking about it for a day or two (I love that).

Some would argue the concept of a multiverse is predicable and a cop out, others might argue that New Game Plus sux as you lose everything you’ve spent time on and can’t pick different traits, but personally I love that stepping through the Unity is all about man’s hunger for more power.

The way I see it, if you step through it enough times you end up being like the Hunter. Bitter, lack of care and empathy, probably a lot like how power affects people in real life and how it can corrupt the best of us.

Caught up with Nanami recently. Whenever I visit her place I make a bee line to her studio to sneak a peek at her work in progress. Right now she’s drawing frogs!
