Last Video Game You Played 4.0

[Iceman]

True enough, but honestly I consider Mass Effect 3 to be slightly underrated for one fairly simple reason.

The game was literally made in 2 years.

The fact that it's not significantly worse borders on a miracle. Yet it has the best gameplay in the series, it had a fantastic multiplayer and a (mostly) satisfactory conclusion.

Even imagining having to try and wrap up the goddamn Mass Effect story in 2 years, let alone also make upgrades to the gameplay and add multiplayer, makes my head spin

Good point on that. 2 years nowadays feels like nothing when working on major AAA games and this game had a ton to do, even if ME2 had already made massive jumps in gameplay that 3 could be based on. It's not easy ending a franchise like this and despite the not-great reaction to the original choice of endings, they were certainly taking on a lot in a very short timeframe. Adding an amazing multiplayer makes the achievement even bigger.

Eh, while I agree that ME3 does have plenty of good stuff in it, I can't be *that* forgiving. . . because the main problems with ME3 were not the result of too little time or too little budget. They were very deliberate creative decisions by the chief writer done with malice aforethought.

Pathfinder Kingmaker. I've actually fallen into a bit of a well with it, and haven't actually played any Trails in a week. Apparently I really had a WRPG/BG clone itch.

It's on my backlog.

Check out the Pillars of Eternity series, and Tyranny, if you want to further scratch that CRPG itch.

Already played, and already played.

Well, the first Pillars. I haven't played Pillars 2 yet, due to a mix of being annoyed at the ending of Pillars 1, and the back-of-box plot premise for Pillars 2 sounding like the worst "I hate LG" pablum. Then I read detailed spoilers for the game, and found the game sound *much* more appealing. . .

Cyberpunk

Finally got around to it now that they actually updated it and ye, this honestly isn't that bad. Open world could use some minigames, but that's about it for major complaints

Been playing Call Of Duty 4 Modern Warfare remastered. Got a good portion of the trophies thus far. I'm working on beating the game on Veteran. I already tried to do Mile High Club on Veteran beforehand and sucked at it.

That and completing the training course in 15 seconds will most likely be impossible for me.

Assassin's Creed 3

Modern Warfare 2 Remastered. I still need two trophies for the platinum in the first game, but they are just so incredibly hard to obtain I'm gonna take a break. Granted MW2 has the same type of super difficulty trophies as well. But I'll focus on getting all the easy ones first.

I will say that I'm already not looking forward to several missions on Veteran...

Unfortunately, SOTN received little marketing from Konami and a small production run. Its honestly kind of amazing it even got a western release, Sony was still very much anti-2D at the time.

It is a shame cause the game is amazing
