I’ve got a bunch of Alaska scouted out, and did pop over to Russia to buy an azov

but I’ve got 3 contracts left in Michigan and have cleared out all the tasks from black rover and the dam and am mostly done with the tasks on the other two maps

my current crew is the hummer, two royals and the azov

I don’t have a pc capable of playing games, and haven’t for a decade or so

I like playing games on a console these days because I have no interest in paying for or dealing with all the extra garbage that comes with pc gaming.

I have an Xbox and not a ps because I like Forza

subnautica feels like it could benefit from one of those "safe mode" settings that are getting popular, it would be nice to be able to just explore

i bought valhalla on a wim yesterday

my 2-hour impression is that it is a perfectly serviceable viking themed arpg but continues the trend of moving the asscreed games away from actual assassins

It's very good. I only wish the games had been made in the other order so that egypt had had a slighty better engine and attention to detail. some places in the desert in origins are good.. and the fact you can see the pyramids from almost anywhere on the map? and the variety of terrain? and bayek? and bayeks hot as gently caress wife?

viking simulator that I am playing now is more different from the last two than the last two were from each other. I've been playing for almost ten hours or maybe more and I am still using the same equipement I got in the first hour. so far it's feeling kinda grindy, basically have to raid enemy bases to get building materials to build my own home town, because there ain't just horses everywhere and I don't have a horse yet and only just got a blacksmith.

just want more progress and may burn out who'll find out

I like the combat in viking game much better than the last two, not sure why as the basic controls are pretty much the same, egypt game was better in most other ways, greek game didn't really click with me

my favorite story beat in viking game so far is when the assassin apprentice that's been studying his target for months gets murked in half a second

quote:

, because there ain't just horses everywhere and I don't have a horse yet

even though there is no tutorial or mission segment telling you, you can summon a horse at any time using the down-button wheel
I just unlocked the blacksmith as well

the viking thing seems dumb to me because my primary joy in asscreed is climbing around on famous monumental architecture and they made a setting for valhalla where a 5 story building was high technology

climbing mountains in the starting map was fun for a bit, but yeah

we'll see how long-boating down a river on the english countryside to go gently caress up some monks holds my attention

it's fun for now
