Same I got the end of act 1 and got pulled away. So hard to go back.

I started Kingdom Come the week before so I need to finish one before I start another because I won't go back to it.
At least Avowed playtime is a bit more manageable than a 100+ hour rpg but I recommend a quick palate cleanser to reset in between.

Is that "rugby expert" not putting out enough content already,Six Nations is his E3.
I won't complain though if I get more rugby video game coverage from both of you.

Review incoming?
I play these everytime but strategy never changes.
Get it wide to the fast guys. Whether it was Jason Robinson in Jonah Lomu or Cheslin Kolbe in rugby 25.

Given the amount of vodka they consume, I think that logic holds up.

I love the shadows effect. What game is this?

Good piece. Nexus was my first time back in decade immersing myself in the Irish dev scene. It has improved from mostly student indies & AAA call centers to having a burgeoning AAA space & a more mature indie space. Lots of progress but comparison to Barcelona & Montreal show there's lots to be done

You're going to need to update the intro:
"Keep the lights on and support this 1̶1̶ 12 persons business"

There are similarities with the most recent Saint's Row.
Bioware needed a narrative reset and the new galaxy, years later was a good premise but in the details and the execution it fell down.

The Godfather 3 of gaming. Not a bad game, I finished it, but a step down from predecessors and fell along way short of expectations.

Looks great. Your missing a trick by not having these t-shirts in kids sizes (maybe XS qualifies)

Well now you made me go look up what valence electrons are. Not sure what that is trending high.

Damn Mike. I am very sorry to hear. You have tons of friends at Xbox but if anything comes up that I can help with, let me know.

One of my favorite episodes on the channel, as a "business" person in game dev, this was perfect.
I did chuckle when it opens "we are here at Lake Como", this could have just as easily been recorded at the Redmond IHOP.

Astrobot was my first platinum. The bitesized nature of the levels if a perfect change of pace.
Plus you have Yakuza Pirate, Avowed and AC Shadows coming a few months. You have a lot of RPG in your future.

I purposely line up gaming sorbets as pallette cleansers between long games. I'm 70hrs in Metaphor and I'm going to play COD campaign before starting STALKER2 or Veilguard.

Exactly.
Get a comfortable chair, a good drink and sit back and enjoy.
Also managing MP spend in the dungeons is key and you don't have to beat each dungeon in one day. That first cathedral took me multiple days. Magla rooms are dungeons fast travel points.

I'm playing lots of it. I think I'm enjoying it, in that lightly stimulated way. No huge highs or moments of elation but no moments of frustration.
Classic JRPG experience. That story beat is interesting, now play for 10hrs to see if it pays off.

I'm about 50 hours in and the end seems a long way away.
The drip of new archetypes and enemies is constant. The pace is very up and down, lots of downtime with your party.

Good rec, installing now. I only discovered the games recently.
It's surprisingly easy to setup.
I recommend trying
Arranger, Storyteller
(both puzzle games) and Terra Nil (eco reverse city bulder)
