I got very bored of Ragnarok, not sure why. I enjoyed God of War though.
The only thing I'm not a huge fan of is how it's not completely open world, virtually everything you do seems scripted. I know you can roam after game completion but I'm one of those who prefers to meander off into endless side quests and collections.

Warhorse making another KC and a middle earth game is incredible news.
Yeah they did a great job with KC. The budget for LOTR is 100 million, which is double of what they had for KC2 (or a bit more). Considering the period, I think KC had less graphics and fewer NPC tasks compared to what is possible with LOTR. A huge task nevertheless.

But then again, compared to other games, especially the new GTA which has 10x the budget, it's okay-ish I guess.

Im very curious to see what they do, it's such a different world and stimulus to KC

Forza Horizon 6 is great on a technical level. The problem is I feel like I've already played this game 5 times over. It's too similar to the previous titles and there's still no proper story or progression system. Some of the dialogue is cringe as fuck. And I was asked what my pronouns are before my first race. Come on, this is a racing game.

My current stance on Forza Horizon 6:

This series has become boring in terms of its presentation. Horizon started out as an edgy music/car festival but now every person in it speaks like an adult in an episode of Sesame Street. I just wish this game had some personality. A set of tits to look at wouldn't hurt...

I'm hearing good things about the new Bond game. "Best Bond game since Goldeneye"

Shall I give you the bad news?

It’s basically the same career mode for the last 5 years.

The good news?

Id rather have you as JJ coach than Spunkletti.
The last I played was 24, and I consistently ran into an issue where the gameplay would randomly stop for like 3 literal seconds and stutter, so it was basically unplayable. Like this more or less:


So I'm just looking for something that works at this point.
